Farmer said it had been a slow day Tuesday before 3:30 p.m., when she was informed the shop would be receiving a special visitor.
"We were excited, and no one knew what to expect," Farmer said.
Farmer said Obama discussed the weather with her, chatted with her fellow customers and posed for some cellphone pictures before continuing on to the rally.
The manager said Tuesday remained slow after Obama left, but the visit boosted her shop's popularity on social media sites.
"Just judging by how many comments people will see online," she said. "I have friends from out of state texting me saying, 'Dude, Michelle Obama was at your coffee shop.' So hopefully" there will be an increase in business.
