Stream of Consciousness Koffiehuis

The Stream of Consciousness Koffiehuis (with "Koffiehuis" being the Dutch spelling of coffeehouse) was a coffee shop and dessertery that operated from 1993 through 1995 at 1128 20th Street South within the Terrace Court building. The establishment was notable in that it was one of the first modern coffeehouses within the Birmingham district prior to the national coffeehouse explosion of the late-1990s that made them commonplace throughout the country.

Some of the various offerings included: the "Huis blend" coffee, Italian soda, Espresso Classico and the Stream Mocha. For desserts, some of their offerings included cheesecake, pound cake, Dutch bread pudding and "Aunt Bea's Hummingbird Cake."
