“Light, crispy, warm, delicious! These may be the best donuts I've ever had! I just wish the hours were a little longer / more regular - it's hard to line up a stop when we pass by Black Mountain. Updated from previous review on 2024-04-07“
“This coffee if so good! I always get drip when I come, whatever is the lighter drip for the day. The porch is a great place to chill, and they have a large vinyl selection inside with a player and speakers. I've always had a good experience with the staff too. If you like really good coffee fresh from the roasters down the road, you have to come here!!! Also, they usually have the windows open in the warmer months, so you can get free smells just by parking in the parking lot!“
“An absolutely wonderful experience at The Station. We just stumbled upon it on our trip to Black Mountain and the Espresso Martini as well as the Aperol Spritz were two of the best cocktails I’ve had. The staff were so fun and welcoming - we had a great time!“
“A cute and cozy cafe nestled in the heart of Black Mountain! The atmosphere of the physical space is really lovely. There is lots of seating and wifi amidst a calm setting. I was happy to find no distractingly loud music playing, which I’ve noticed has become popular in coffee shops. The barista who made my latte was very sweet, and made a beautiful rosetta! Plenty of pastries. They even had gf + vegan options from the local company, Dolci di Maria. A cute little spot to hit up before/after a hike or yoga class (shoutout Black Mountain Yoga)! Definitely check it out.Dietary restrictions: Gf + vegan pastry options! Limited, but they’re there!“
“A very nice little coffee shop with breakfast and lunch sandwiches..There is indoor a d outdoor seating...The staff is very friendly and helpful...They also have great desserts and offer local honey and various other items...It's connected with Cheryl's Place which is a very nice thrift store with a small gallery room from local artists...One of my favorite places to stop...“
“We were in Black Mountain on a quick getaway! We took in a Basketball Game at Montreat College and wanted something sweet after. We headed just a short drive to get milk shakes from Hop! Absolutely amazing! The young man that was helping us was attentive to our needs, and prepared the most delicious milk shakes. Prices were reasonable and product was great. We loved the set up of the shop. We will definitely return!“
“All the Staff at this location are amazing! Always friendly! Its nice to see a smiling face in the mornings. Always fast and order is always correct. Robbie C and Joey are the dynamic duo! Best customer service no matter who you have though!“
“Sometimes I feel bad because I think I rate businesses too harshly, like maybe I just expect too much. Then I come to places like this and I see what a 5-star rating restaurant truly looks like.Everything was amazing. Our server was on top of things, continually filling our waters and we never ran low. Our food was delivered quick and fully correct. I ordered the crispy chicken, and, while I'm not a fan of collards (my wife loved them), it was one of the best meals I've had. The presentation was incredible and truly a 5-star dining experience.They don't have a kids menu, but since we really wanted to come here, we called ahead and they graciously said they can make something work. Our girls ordered chicken tenders and fries and they said it was the best (direct quote) chicken tenders they've ever gotten! I can't give this place higher praise than that.Richard, the owner, stopped by our table at the end of our meal and we had a great conversation about their story, their travels, and what led them to open this place that used to be a run-down gas station. This place is the definition of 'excellence' that so many restaurants promise but fail to live up to. I can't wait to come here again!Kid-friendliness: No kids menu, but they can work with you to make something work“
