I did not even go inside of this shop and I never will. But I can see why this place has less than 2 stars. I was walking through this area with my new puppy, taking her out to socialize and do some shopping, I just left Tea Rabbits right next door which is amazing. She stopped to do her business, something dogs do. Unfortunately the little thing stepped in it and we were right by the road. So I moved her to wipe her paw down and clean up her mess. Before I even got to my bag to get the wipes and bags some lady shouted at me saying I was so rude for bringing my dog to poop right in front of her store on purpose ( like I have control of that) I explained that I was trying to wipe her down and that I would clean it up to give me a minute. She said people always let their dogs shit in front of her store and she was sick of it. I don’t know how this place is open.

After reading the reviews, I was flummoxed and I finally decided to go see for myself. I had a lovely time. My coffee was fine, and it was enjoyable talking with the old lady's son. I hung out with him a few minutes and then when I left I said bye, and she said, Bye, hun. I liked her. I thought she was fine, maybe a little shy. I liked supporting their little business, and if it's so important to them that you buy a coffee, then buy one! What's the big deal.

Me and my fiance came to this beautiful town as a little day trip. Literally every store in this town square sells hot chocolate and coffee. We had already been walking down the street with a latte. We tried walking into this store despite the doors not opening fully from so many items packed inside this store. How it passes any fire code is surprising to me. We finally made it inside after helping a poor lady with a stroller trying to exit in a hurry. I understood why she was in a hurry once we got inside. The man at the counter in the back of the store yelled we can’t bring someone else’s coffee into their coffee shop. The store says antiques on the outside with a small sign that says “coffee break.” My fiance responded with “none of this shit is for sale?” A woman responded that it’s all for sale, but they have to make money! I told her we buy an ornament at every location we visit, but they wouldn’t get our business. We walked out and she followed behind us telling us we must forgive her son because he had Parkinson’s and she has cancer. I’m truly sorry if that’s true, but it’s time to pack up shop if this business isn’t bringing you joy. Seriously a dark blemish on such a beautidul small town at Christmas.

One star because ZERO STARS isn’t an option. I was in their shop for 20 seconds and was basically asked to leave if I wasn’t buying a coffee. My reaction is so none of this junk is for sell?! The shop is packed full of ornaments and things to buy but I refuse to give them my business after that interaction. What a B itch.

RUDE & CRAZY! My husband and I couldn’t even get in the door and an old lady asked if we were gonna buy any coffee or hot chocolate? I responded by saying that we wanted to look around her store. She said she couldn’t make any money if we just wanted to look around. She had no idea what I would have purchased from her store.I was shopping for Christmas gifts. I probably would have spent more money on other items than I would have spent on her nasty coffee.

The lady who owns the shop enjoys intimidating, harassing, and kicking out customers based in their appearance. Read these reviews, which include some truly vile stories, before sponsoring.
Is this h@te tourism? Like, do they attract customers because they owners mean? I think I'll write a fan fiction.

I always come to Dahlonega to visit family so I’ve been here many times, most of the time I come with family so we go in. The one time I take a visit with friends the lady outside tells us that there’s a ten-dollar entrance fee for each of us. I was confused and didn’t understand at first because every other time we had been allowed in there. I asked her if this was new and she told us “How do you expect us to make money if none of you are paying.” I turned to my friends and left.

Don’t bother with this place. The owners are rude and racist and the coffee is atrocious, as detailed in so many other reviews. Go to Canopy + the Roots or Jethro’s if you want good coffee from a good Dahlonega business.

Hey my review got taken down, just like some others. Isn't that funny. I won't rehash the whole story, let's just say it's similar to the others. The male owner even yelled, "**** you!" in my mother's face.
Somehow my review from 2018 got removed, so I’m happy to leave it again.This business is on the historic square and has items lining the sidewalk. My family of four was walking on the public sidewalk past this business when my two (2) year old Daughter reached out and touched a concrete bird bath that is literally ON THE SIDEWALK.The onslaught of meanness that ensued from the shop owner was impressive. We we’re yelled at, berated, and, ultimately, the cops were called…not by us (the subjects of a verbal tirade) but by the lady who owns the shop.Yes, she called the cops on our two-year-young Daughter and we HAPPILY awaited the Officer’s arrival. In fact, we dedicated the time to wait there until he arrived.After listening to both parties, the Officer suggested that we report this issue to the City as situations like this occur frequently and are a black eye to this community.Were we customers? No. Simply pedestrians on a public sidewalk enjoying a sunny day’s stroll along the historic square of a quaint North Georgian town when we were aggressively pursued as we moved past this shop.Am I bitter? Hmmm…nah, not really…I do embrace forgiveness. But when you see something, say something. I saw something, I’m saying something.

All of these reviews are 100% on point. Gas station coffee, Narnia-meets-Nana’s-attic vibes, and barely any room to walk around. Five stars because my boyfriend and I walked in for kicks and giggles and boy did we get it. I’m just sad we missed the persnickety old lady. Not a place you go for good coffee, but definitely an entertaining experience.

Walked in and got nothing but angry stares and rudeness from them.

The lady who owns this ship is tremendously rude. I wanted to look at the menu before I ordered a coffee and she claimed I just wanted to poke around her shop without buying anything.
I can't wait for this place to close down and occupied by someone who will use this building to better effect.
