History

Established in 2011.

The Shak is located centrally in the historic and rustic mountain mill village of North Fork, California. It is the only coffee shop in the Exact Center of California. We sit right on the Sierra Vista Scenic Byway serving our local villagers and guests from out of town.

Owned and operated by locals, we are a community oriented business. We donate 10% of our profits to our in-​house community development fund. We started and sponsor a mountain area Youth Chamber of Commerce.

Here at the Shak our motto is hospitality first, coffee second. We invite all guests alike to come settle in and hang out for a bit. Try our wonderful Shanti herbal tea and accompany it with our Shak Salad that has locally grown spinach, diced onions and tomatoes, blue cheese crumbles, pine nuts, dried cranberries, sprinkled with our special seasoning, drizzled with balsamic vinegar and roasted garlic oil and finally, topped with locally grown diced apple.

Panhandle Slim D.

Business Owner

Slim’s Koffee Shak is named after a Miniture Dashund, Panhandle Slim. Slim got his name from an ol’ corduroy jacket that owner Scott O’Brian Marsh, wore as a party jacket in his college days. Slim grew up on a college campus visiting local bars and as he got older, Slim started hanging out at coffee shops in North Beach, San Francisco. There, he continued his reputation as a kool kat and now finds himself at his own Koffee Shak in the amazing village of North Fork, California.

Pets are welcome on the front patio where they can lounge with a bowl of water and chat with Slim and other visiting dogs.
