I really don’t understand how this place is in business. They are always closed, even when they are supposedly open. ?

This place rocks! In town for the Leaves In The Loop event and needed a quick breakfast. The Lift was recommended and am glad that I was able to visit this place. Both times were for grab-and-go breakfast items. They made sure my order was hot and ready and I was on my way. The staff was friendly and engaging in conversation with those in line. I am glad I made it there for the last two days of their season. The Lift is more than just coffee. They had several food items and a variety of interesting pastries and treats.

5-Star Review:

I absolutely love this place! Great location, great coffee, and breakfast options paired with amazing service.

The atmosphere is modern and casual but keeps that famous mountain vibe you’d expect at June Lake. It’s female-owned and run, and you can tell by the attention to detail and care that only a woman’s touch can provide. I love that they support female artists by selling their merch, so if you’re looking for unique souvenirs, this is the spot!

The service is incredible—attentive when you need it but laid-back if that’s the vibe you’re going for. I’ve been a few times, and no matter what my mood was, they matched my energy perfectly. They’re also super efficient.

Now let’s talk food: they make the best breakfast burritos, and their house-made salsa is a must-try! You can’t go wrong with it. They also offer vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free options, which is a big plus.

The pricing is reasonable too—a burrito and coffee for around $10-12, which is fair in today’s market.

No notes for improvement—they’re fast, friendly, and the food is fresh! Absolutely, 1000% would recommend!

Just got a coffee. It was ok. The people are nice and friendly. They had sugar, honey, half n half, chocolate powder, but no Splenda or other artificial or alternative sweeteners. Cash only under $5.
I liked the vibe, but didn't have time for breakfast. There was a cocktails (I think) menu on the wall, but they close at noon? Well ok then!

Parking: There is one ♿ spot in the lot and one or two regular spots that were blocked by a van.

Been coming for a few years, such a cute cafe! Sometimes the coffee isn’t as strong or flavorful as I would like, but overall I like it and come back!

This is my first time coming to The Lift. I'd have to say its amazing coffee. The service was amazing alongside the atmosphere. I'm from the city of Sacramento, I mainly go to Dutch Bros, but The Lift has amazing options to choose from

Very nice little café, with a terrace which offers a beautiful view of the Sierra. I just had a latte, well prepared and served with a smile.

Coffee good and inexpensiveYou can only have the avocado toast for breakfast, it is very tasty.Croissant expensive and dry, Egg of the Day are small egg muffins but not freshly made either. There is nothing more here.So only great for coffee, not suitable for breakfast; Pity.
