Such a lovely find! I’m a coffee snob and always assumed when coming to smaller towns that the coffee will be suss, but not here!! Great coffee, great cookies and delicious breakfast sandwiches

Also doesn’t hurt that every barista is sweet!

Good stop here right before our hike. Coffee was great service was amazing and the best part is that its a Christian coffee shop. Booklets, bibles available to take and people meeting on small groups talking about our Lord and Savior...and if that not what you want tomdo over coffee you can play uno....

very peaceful ambience. The cold brew is actually quite tasty, it can be tricky locating a place on the mountain that serves cold brew so this place is a Godsend.

Greeted with smiles and Christian music which I love. The menu has a nice variety of choices. My husband and I had a fresh blueberry scone and breakfast sandwich with rosemary garlic bread, egg, onion, tomato and cheese. 😋
For a drink the Americano with a splash of cream.
Good job to the staff 🤩 Thank you.

Basic mediocre mountain town coffee good for exactly what it is. There was a lady in there working on two laptops and talking on the phone extremely loud so we decided to just get coffee and leave. We could have sat outside but the chairs looked dirty. The barista was wonderful super sweet girl.

Love the experience. I found it very sweet that had bibles and positive signs around their coffee shop. Felt very inviting definitely took a Bible for hope for tomorrow thank you for offering the mini bibles :)

Also their coffee and ham and cheese bread was very good. Just felt like I needed to highlight the above since you never see that anywhere else and it made this place more unique.

The coffee was bad, ordered simple coffee and it was disgusting. I went based on reviews because I’m not a local but this was not it. I would suggest you go somewhere else.

This is a cute little coffee shop that looks like it used to be a gas station. Now I ordered a caramel latte on ice which turned out to be very delicious. My partner ordered a pour over coffee which he also enjoyed hot. We also ordered a build your own sandwich for lunch and it came out really good and also included a bag of chips. I also ordered avocado toast and it was only $5 for the toast which I thought was very reasonable and it came out yummy too. They have an outdoor patio area which was pretty full when we arrived and then cleared out. We sat indoors at a small table even though the indoor space is pretty small. The service was helpful and friendly. The food did take a bit to come out, but overall we enjoyed our experience very much.

First, I wanna start by saying great customer service, however.. horrible pastries. I ordered a brownie & the lady failed to Mention it’s made with avocados. When she called out to let us know my order was ready she said “ Avocado” at first I didn’t grab it because I got a brownie. when I finally figured out, it was my brownie the lady was already gone.. I’m not sure if it was made outta avocado or not but it doesn’t take like chocolate at all.

If you’re looking for a cozy café nestled between homes, trees, and nature, this place is a delightful find. I visited here this morning and ordered a breakfast sandwich with turkey, egg, and cheese, paired with a black coffee. After about an hour, I indulged in a blueberry scone. I spent nearly three hours here, enjoying the charming atmosphere.

The café is simple but inviting, with natural light flooding in and a touch of rustic decor. The view outside features trees and houses, giving it a peaceful, almost cabin-like vibe. The air is fresh and gentle, especially as we’re entering summer.

The staff members are incredibly friendly—each one more cheerful and attentive than the last. They greeted me with warm smiles and made sure everything was just right. Their hospitality made the experience even more memorable.

I can’t say this café is entirely different from others I’ve visited around the world, but its setting amidst nature makes it special. If you love cafés located in tranquil, scenic spots, don’t hesitate to visit this one. It’s a gem worth experiencing.

Great coffee and pastries. Only thing that ruined it was the attitude of the tall, slim and young white male behind the counter. I've been going to this coffee shop for a few yrs. And I've never dealt with that. I hope he was just having a bad day and really hope that's not who he is on a regular. I went back to my cabin in confusion.
