Great coffee, friendly staff, and uber-cool surroundings. You're gonna be in Mt. Vernon to take in the festivals or antiques, so be sure to stop in to Fuel! They have the gifts and decor that are no where else.The owner, Tommie, has an incredible sense of style that seems to mix world art, dark humor, and midwest sensibilities into one. She collects amazing stuff from all over, sometimes one of a kind finds, to sell there: dia de los muertos figurines, cast iron animals, fun brightly painted metal work by local artists, Dutch funeral urns, vintage cowboy boots, amazing handmade pieces in wood, paper, and cloth by Central American artists, Tibetan glasswear, Asian cabinets, French toiletries, original art by Tommie herself, and all kinds of new stuff coming in every week!
If that isn't enough, the amazing baked scones, cupcakes, cookies, and brownies are made fresh from scratch daily right in the store!
