“10/10 great atmosphere and amazing baked goods!”

“Mint is the best restaurant in the Boone/Blowing Rock area! The food is fantastic, most ingredients from India. Cucumber salad and hot cauliflower appetizer, the saag options are all amazing. The service is attentive, friendly and professional. Aman is the best. He remembers us and makes us feel special plus he makes the most delicious drink - Mango Mojito. Atmosphere is nice, and to top it all off it’s a great value.”

“Best start of a day. Watching the cooks work together as a team and all waitresses just buzzing food all amazing. Thank u Wendy. Top pick for eating out”

“Some of the best if not the best food I have ever eaten! Would drive from Arkansas to eat there. Oh, I did! Staff was outstanding. Would highly recommend.”

“Hatchet Coffee has a way of feeling instantly familiar, even if you’re not sure you’ve been before. On our second trip to Boone, we pulled up to the café and were struck by that déjà vu sense of comfort an immediate excitement that confirmed we’d found one of the High Country’s true gems. This was our second visit, and once again Hatchet proved itself to be among the best coffee purveyors in the region. The line was long, but the anticipation only added to the ritual; after all, we had a 45-minute drive ahead to Grandfather Mountain, and good coffee was non-negotiable. At the counter, the staff embodied the kind of hospitality that makes a place unforgettable. The cashier was warm and attentive, quick to ask questions when she didn’t have an answer, and genuinely excited to help. I had come to swap ground beans for whole, and while the exchange wasn’t possible, they graciously sent me home with a bag of Brazilian beans instead a gesture that spoke volumes about their passion and care. Despite the bustle, the wait was brief, and the atmosphere remained convivial. One of the baristas even struck up a conversation with me about my jacket, a small but meaningful interaction that elevated the experience beyond the cup. Hatchet Coffee is more than a café it’s a community hub, a place where quality and connection meet. With its exceptional brews, thoughtful staff, and welcoming spirit, it’s the kind of spot you’ll find yourself returning to again and again.”

“Lily’s is so important and delightful! Love their vibes and their commitment to community. Not to mention their tater wedges 🥰”

“This place is truly a 10 out of 10. From our server Rhonda, to the delicious appetizer, great wine, entrees were fantastic and ended with a sumptuous desert. Thank you so much”

“Best Greek option in Boone by a mile - been eating here for years. Consistently good and they have upped their pastry/dessert game recently.”

“Michael was PHENOMENLAL. His service was amazing. We spilled a beer and he quickly brought out a new one. He kept checking on us and was super helpful without being rude. Honestly one of the best restaurant experiences we have ever had. The entire staff we interacted with was very inviting, and super nice. We have been there before and will definitely return.”

“We ate lunch with our friend here today. We sat on the patio with our German Shepherd. The staff was so friendly. The drinks and food were amazing. My gf is gluten free and she really loved the menu. My sweet potato enchilada was so delicious. We can’t wait to come back the next time we are in town:)”

“had dinner there for the first time yesterday, just a wonderful experience! definitely would recommend. food and service excellent”

“The khao soy is so good 😊. The outside seatings feel like I’m In Thailand eating Thai street food. I don’t have to go to Thailand to eat Thai street food.”

“My wife and I had the Dragon bowl and the Acerola smoothie. Both were absolutely delicious! The bowls were bigger than others we have had in the area and the fruit was so fresh that I thought they were growing it in the back! Jessica and Mike are the best and they are so welcoming that you feel like you have known them for years. Next time, and there will be MANY more next times, I'm going to add cacao nibs. I think the chocolate would add another mood boosting layer to my already insanely healthy breakfast. This kept me going all the way to lunch and I even skipped coffee! I can't wait to go back to Seaboard Station Palm Berries and try the next bowl.”

“Really good southern cooking at a reasonable price and good service. Make a reservation. The change in location is convenient and the renovation of the motel was very nice but the Acoustics are terrible and it's really loud. Try to go at a time when it's not busy.”

“Me and my husband came for the first time yesterday . The coffee is very good !”

“Great food , staff was great, Definitely returning”

“Amazing salads, sandwiches, and desserts!”

“We ate here for the first time, the pizza is outstanding! It won't be the last time!”

“I usually don’t write reviews because…oh, well…time, life…but for Local Lion coffee shop I want to do it because it’s one of the places that truly deserves all the praises. Me and my family are not doughnut fans by any means, we eat a doughnut maybe once a year. We are coffee lovers though (me and my husband, not the kids, lol). However, I got a craving of a doughnut and decided to look for a place that has doughnuts, while being in vacation (we live in Charlotte but we were visiting Blowing Rock/Boone area recently) and found Local Lion on the map. I am so glad I did! The coffee was good, we also bought some custom tea blends from them that are exquisite and the doughnuts were excellent. Something so delicious…I will be dreaming of them for a while and I will definitely go back. Plus the kindness of the people working there…everything makes that place worth checking it out. They didn’t sponsored me or nothing, it’s just a happy customer review.”

“Every time I come to Boone I am seeking this place out. The best black bean burger anywhere resides here. Please put a location in Winston-Salem or the Triad!”

“Hands down BEST ICE CREAM AROUND! 10/10 worth checking out!! I have been the crochet vendor for them for the past year and I absolutely love every single thing about their shop! Amazing people, delicious Ice cream, a must try!!(:”

“This organization is doing AMAZING things for the Boone community - from reducing food waste and providing anyone who needs it a meal (which, BTW, is delicious and creative - something you might expect to find at a fancy restaurant) to providing the perfect setting for genuine, neighbor-to-neighbor meaningful connections. I highly recommend making this your go-to lunch spot, volunteering your time (or a few dollars if you're able), and spreading the word about what this incredible, selfless team is doing. You are doing wonderful work in the community and I am so grateful there are folks like you in this world!!!”

“My son was screaming while I was ordering, the young girl taking my order ran to go grab him the milk I ordered and waited for me to pour it in his sippy and took the cup back to throw away. She obviously did not have to do any of that and I am so grateful she did because the line was long and it allowed me to wait in line without a screaming baby. Every time I’ve gone to the Wichita Falls location I’ve always had above and beyond customer service.”

“Love ❤ 😍 this place. Nothing like a breakfast so good in a place you feel at home and closer to God. Absolutely MARVELOUS 💯 💯 💯 Only place open for breakfast open at 6:00AM in Boone.”

“My family and I have been to several MM locations and this is the best one by far. Pizza is incredible, our favorite location.”

“Food was incredible, lots of options, tasted great”

“The owner is extremely kind, reliable and receptive. The coffee is wonderful always! My favorites are the Heath frappe (an ode to my dad’s favorite candy bar I can rarely find) and the raspberry truffle mocha. Have, and will continue coming back <3 Thank you Higher Grounds!”
