I was at this cafe over the weekend and they were gossiping about some patrons. They were saying these negative things to others in the cafe. After experiencing this level of unprofessionalism we will never go back and neither will any of our friends who live in and near Tehaleh. This cafe is very overpriced and we would go for convenience and to enjoy the Mountain View but it’s not worth the cost or unprofessional employees.

They'll ignore you if you're not white. My mom and her friend waited there for 10 minutes and all the employees were talking to each other. But then when a group of white people came in they took their order right away. Be warned.

I live close to Tehala and often take friends that visit to Caffe D’Arte for the views and breakfast burritos. I visited yesterday and asked if they changed their menu and the barrister said “no”. But the meat and potatoes, as well as the chorizo burrito are no longer available. Now it’s fake meat crumbles! I asked if they had any leftover breakfast burritos and she said “ I refer everyone to the menu” then she motioned her hand toward the menu on the counter. A simple yes would have sufficed. I ordered a London Fog and it had no steamed milk. My friend had regular coffee and had to ask for cream. We felt as though we were introducing on her lunch break which she was clearly taking right in front of us behind the counter. She was unfriendly and would walk away while asking what size of coffee my friend wanted. I thought she was talking to someone else. I understand this is a relaxed environment but being hospitable should be a requirement.

Baristas are always so sweet, patient, and kind! The food is a little bit more than I’d like to pay but it’s honestly so tasty. I love the paninis!! But you can also grab quick-to-go things like a packaged muffin, Nutella + breadstick cups, fruit snacks, yogurt cups; or quick to grab drinks such as juice, soda, redbull, etc. There’s also so many trails that lead all around the town that you can get to just by taking the one trail right out behind the cute building.
Closed today (January 1st), even though Google maps shows as open.

By far best coffee in Bonney Lake. The coffee is strong, the baristas are great. It's not the fastest but quality makes up for it & every single breakfast item is delish. Pro- tip , order early especially on weekends they will sell out.

The view of Rainier from the cafe is breathtaking.!
My spouse and I, enticed by the promise of a caffeine fix near the scenic trails, ventured into Cafe Darte with high hopes. The ambiance at the visitor center and coffee shop was impressive, and the menu had us genuinely excited.Optimism faded swiftly as we tasted the drip coffee – it was like sipping on regret, burnt and stale. The cold brew didn't fare any better; it was so bland that even a watered-down library coffee would have had more character. Save yourself the disappointment and head to 7/11; you might find a more satisfying cup of joe there. For those serious about good coffee, Lamppost Coffee Roasters in Bonney Lake is a far superior choice.Now, the breakfast burritos. Our anticipation was crushed when we opened the container to find miniature burritos. Hoping for redemption in flavor, we were met with an arctic surprise – the potatoes and eggs were uncooked and freezing cold. It was as if we were attempting to eat frozen bricks. Seeking a simple solution, my wife politely inquired about reheating options, only to be told, "We do not have a microwave, my friend." Our suggestion to throw the untouched burritos back on the grill was met with a stone-cold refusal, claiming we'd already taken them. With customer service as warm as a polar vortex and food teetering on the brink of inedible, we resorted to reheating the burritos in the outdoor propane fireplace as if we were making s’mores.In summary, Cafe Darte offers coffee that barely hits mediocrity, food that borders on the inedible, and a staff whose friendliness quotient is colder than their uncooked breakfast burritos. Save your taste buds and explore other options – this one's a miss.

We love cafe darte but the pet policy needs to change. We saw a dog peeing on the floor, owner did nothing about it or notify to get it cleaned. Very unsanitary, especially seeing toddlers crawling around the floor many times.

This has quickly become our favorite coffee shop. Excellent products, amazing views and fair prices.

This place is so nice. My grown daughters, their children and I enjoyed eating inside and then relaxed on the patio by the fire place. The view of Mt. Rainear is breathtaking from inside and outside!
