I wanted to love this place but it was very disappointing. The ambience is cute but that was about where it ended. The coffee was bitter and burnt to the point of being undrinkable. I had to throw it away and go somewhere else. Would love to see this place do well but I think true craft and care would have to go into making their cappuccinos, lattes, etc. for it to reach quality standards.

I frequent this coffee shop whenever I'm in the area and I'm truly hoping the owners can address the issue of their tall blonde barista. I would give her zero stars at this point, if that were possible!!! I have witnessed her cranky face, crabby attitude and down right angry remarks to long time customers and tourists alike. She's not picky, she despises them all and if she's having a stressful moment WATCH OUT because she will wear it plainly on her face and doesn't give a rip about biting someone's head off.I've been told she is the manager, if that is indeed correct, I truly feel for her fellow baristas. I'm sure they are all on the hunt for other jobs at this point because her attitude is worse each time I stop by.Everyone is suited for some type of industry, customer service or anything that requires congeniality is NOT her strong suit, at this point in her life.The location itself, is very cute and bright. The coffee they use is definitely on the more acidic side so order with care if you are a fan of deep & smooth. All the other baristas are great, the girl with very short, vibrantly colored hair is AMAZING at drink making, handling crowds/lines and overall knowledge and her brunette weekend coworker is so chill and welcoming.This place SHOULD be a 5 star review but Miss Crankypants just absolutley ruins an otherwise awesome vibe.

Burnt tasting lattes. I got a vanilla iced latte, and my husband got a regular iced latte. They both tasted burnt. The vanilla was much better with the sugar helping to balance out the burnt taste. Definitely get something sugary.

I’ve been driving past this coffee shop for years and I’m so sad I’ve never stopped until now! The broccoli and cheddar quiche I had for breakfast was so good, and my chai latte was perfect! The baristas were so kind and everything came out very quick. Happy to have a new favorite coffee shop!

Nice place, unfortunately bad service with the the tall blonde, very rude.. most definitely will not be back and would not recommend. So many good options you should really think about how you treat customers?

Great place to relax. Topsail is gorgeous and this allows you to see it while enjoying some coffee.

I came here everyday for a while on my camping trip and the morning cup of coffee they brewed me up made me feel great.
Quaint coffee shop a bit of the beaten path. Service was prompt and friendly. Coffee was delicious. Egg sandwich and quiche was good but rich!Parking: Fair number of parking spots.Kid-friendliness: Plenty of space for the kids to roam and play outdoor games.

We felt like family here!! Love the gift shop and all the Kombucha options that are locally made! They went above and beyond to make special touches that create a unique experience for campers and people driving by!! We will be back
