Excellent spot for breakfast when visiting Cape Charles. Hot chocolate was delicious, and I loved the waffles with bacon! You can't go wrong with breakfast/brunch at this cute coffee house.(Also, if you happen to be a reader of romantic suspense books, this quiet cozy town is the inspiration for USA Today Bestselling Author Maryann Jordan's Baytown Boys series. It was very cool to experience some of the spots that were described in her books.)Parking: It was easy to find street parking, either right outside the coffee house or very close by.

Don't be fooled by the five star reviews. This restaurant is seriously over elevated and over rated!! Breakfast is very dissatisfying, ambiance is dead and the temperature inside the building is cold. Dress warm! Started dining here over a year ago and every visit has presented a consistent, progressive decline of quality each and every time. Nothing is worth the high prices you will pay. We had one cup of coffee, two waters, two orders of the two egg breakfast plates. Costed $35! Fresh fruit has been the only impressive part of my experiences at Coffee House for about 6 months now. You're MUCH better off eating at Sage Diner or even Waffle House.Dietary restrictions: There are no non pork substitutes. No chicken/ turkey options at all.

Very nice employees and lunch sandwiches were good. Chicken salad and Reuben we had and recommend.
A wonderful experience allowing the hurry of life to slow down and enjoy conversation with friends and staff. A true pillar of community.

Cape Charles is a charming town located on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. We enjoy dining at the Cape Charles Coffee Shop located in downtown Cape Charles. The shop takes one back in time. The shop was originally a store. The decor and ceiling are worth the stop. The food is creative, and we enjoy the variety. They serve breakfast or lunch. Personally I love the Americano and bagels with salmon and capers.

The atmosphere was perfect for what I imagine a coffee shop should be. My partner ordered a water and breakfast burrito, while I ordered a Cafe mocha and breafast sandwich with hashbrowns (a la carte). All of it was good, hot and filling.Unfortunately the waitress did not write it down. She gave me a cappuccino instead. I verified this with my partner. I didn't mind because I like cappuccino.If you are In a hurry this place isn't for you bit we where definitely not in a hurry so all good.

I love this place. It looked closed but go ahead and waltz in. I had a caramel latte and a chocolate croissant. My favorite part is the owner....he's from NY, customer ahead of me is from NJ....I'm from California....hahaha. if you can't handle fast talking and light ribbing, stay home. Lol. This place is a gem. Cute art gallery upstairs. Just all in all a fab place. I'll be back for sure...headed to Ocean Isle Beach.

Cool building, probably decent coffee, but service seems to be an ongoing issue reading through these reviews. Walked in and reached for what I thought was a menu from the front counter and who I believe is the owner (Marshall) let me know with just the kindest of words that the papers sitting on the counter that appear to be menus are “not a menu and even if we did have a menu we wouldn’t put it there.” Needless to say we didn’t purchase anything. Support your local businesses. Just not this one.

Super disappointed in our experience today. We waited 50 minutes and never got our breakfast burrito and French toast. We had to cancel our order at that point because we had to get back to work and didn’t have more time to wait. Witnessed an employee (an older man) pull the open sign and throw it behind something up front - it startled everyone as all the other tables were staring at this encounter. Super unprofessional and awkward. Felt bad for the two waitresses though. The table we were sitting at I had water dripping on me from the ac unit above couldn’t really move because the tables are so close together. Just overall not a good experience.
No ac. Poor service, and in general cluttered and dirty. The people where nice but distracted and only one person in the back cooking.

Our family visited your coffee shop for a couple lattes on Sunday, September 10th. An older gentleman named Marshall, I believe was the owner, treated us so poorly and unprofessionally we will NEVER return. The poor attitude, customer service, and lack of any regard is unnecessary. And the lattes were poorly made with just milk, absolutely disgusting!!

Disorganized. Took over an hour to get a bacon egg and cheese sandwich which was mediocre at best. One star bc staff is nice and its cute.
