Huge variety of coffee, tea, smoothies. They also have ice cream and some baked goods.huge flavors of beamed coffee. Fire place.

Do not order blended drinks unless you would like it to taste like ice water. Poor service can't even get an order correct. Place us beautiful though.

Good coffee options. Quite innovative menu with local Michigan ingredients.

Love the chocolate chip cookies. Love the ice coffee. Only issue I have is I went in one day and ordered a drink. Then went in the following day and tried to do the same thing and they told me they weren’t able to do that there. Was disappointed.

We ordered two lavender lattes, we asked for less syrup and then changed our minds and the staff was very obliging and kind, helping to fix our orders! The cafe had cute decor and lots of dogs which was cute! Many nooks and crannies to sit in, very bright and open. A very good morning kinda place!

I ordered the Peanut Butter Banana Protein Smoothie, and boy was I in for a shock.

Halfway through my shake (which was thicker than a snicker, believe me) my arms started to grow at an exponential rate. Before my very eyes my biceps tore through the sleeves of my jacket.

I was afraid I would be cold but my increased muscle mass shielded me from the cold.

Praise God for Espresso Bay.

17min for one cappuccino on a Sunday morning ??‍♂️, yes it was busy but how come 5 young ladies did not figure out a strategy to make it quicker… disappointing experience… and I was not alone!

I hate to be that person but I was shocked by how terrible this coffee shop was. A group of us girls (8) went in for coffee and they said it would be a 20 minute wait, seemed excessive but that's okay because we wanted to sit for awhile so we waited.

EVERY single one of us had a bad coffee. The two cappuccinos were honestly water with a slight milk flavor, zero coffee. My sister got an iced coffee, she went back up and ask them to put more coffee in it so we all felt like we couldn't really follow suit being a big group so we tried to choke them down. Even the 'strong' black coffee was so watered down it was disgusting. Lastly, one of us the coffee was so hot she couldn't drink it and by the time she did taste it, just as bad as everyone else's. Is this normal for this coffee shop? To have the much business and wait that long for an absolutely terrible coffee? It honestly was the worst coffee I have ever had from a shop.

I ordered a latte and they served me a pour over coffee with vanilla flavor. The coffee was not even hot.

One of the staff was quite rude. Coffee was served way too hot.

Bathroom had no way to dry hands. There was a roll of paper towel but it was on the back of the toilet seat and so was a bit wet ?

This place has a lot of potential that it's not living up to. Unfortunately there were next to no food options, just a few muffins and scones but no breakfast sandwiches even though we arrived after only an hour of them being open for the day. Another display case was basically empty with just some popsicles. The space had some cute decor but it lacked being an actual coffee shop and felt like it hadn't been stocked in a long while, along with employees who looked like they really didn't want to be there. All that being said, the latte was decent
