A wonderful place to enjoy. It has a spectacular terrace right in front of the beach, perfect for relaxing with a great view. The coffee has an unmatched flavor and they also offer a wide variety to choose from. It’s a charming, cozy spot and highly recommended for a great time.

I came in with my daughter and ordered three beverages. The barista apparently could not hear. Only one of what she made was correct. And then she proceeded to argue with me and insist that I ordered the drinks she made in error. While my daughter’s drink was great, the whole experience was a big disappointment.

Cute place, but the price for two tea's and a brownie dessert for $20 is a little excessive.

Two summers ago ('23), having come up from the Twin Cities, I stopped in to this place with a local bloke I know. I enjoyed it then, so when I returned to Detroit Lakes this time, 2025, on a road trip from Duluth to Crosby to DL to Fargo and back home to Mpls., I decided to stop in two days in a row. I'm glad I did.
The owner was accommodating, friendly, talkative and personable. She seems like a genuine soul--and her latte art was spot on, haha!
The first day, I relaxed for a bit inside at the ledge near the large front window, overlooking the patio out front and the lake across the street. What a view! The latin music was soothing, so I found it easy to lounge for some time.
On the second day, after a bike ride around part of the lake, I stopped back in for an espresso, which was delish. The vista was even better on a sunnier day, with a different genre of music also adding to the comfortable ambience.
Chatting with the owner for a few minutes provided a sense that she's dedicated to her profession and business, with my also observing an amicable approach to connecting to customers who came through while I was there.
Thank you!
