Such a cute coffee shop. I loved the artwork on the menu! Too many options to choose from so I went with something I've never seen before - a buttercream latte. Just as described it was a cup of sweet goodness. We also had breakfast sandwiches which were so delicious and rich, no ketchup required - these are perfect on their own!Wheelchair accessibility: Tight for a wheelchair but access is possible provided it isn't too overcrowded inside.

Small coffee shop and big in flavor! I visit San Juan Island often and always stop here. First latte I ever got was the honey, lavender latte with oat milk and never looked back! I'm so happy that this place is consistently great! Love their vast menu and seasonal drinks. This place can get a bit busy and crowded as the space is small and only have one person working (they take orders and make the drinks). Definitely one of my favorite cafes in Washington!

Tiny but mighty coffee shop here in Friday Harbor. Lauren is amazing! The pumpkin latte is delicious, made with real pumpkin, not syrup.Fun stop to grab a coffee and walk around town. They also have breakfast sandwiches, both vegan and meat lovers style.

Madrona Latte. GET THE MADRONA LATTE! I've been to Friday Harbor only twice, but Crows Nest is easily a highlight. It's tucked between two buildings, not more than 3 people can stand inside. Super friendly baristas. 100000000/10!!

Great coffee/espresso. Their homemade syrups from locally grown sources are phenomenal.

Really yummy and unique offering of drinks. Store is in this cool, narrow essentially alley turned into a coffee shop. The branding is really neat too! I enjoyed coming here while we stayed a long weekend on the island.

Don't blink...or you'll walk right past this quirky tiny space! I had to stop just for the experience, as it's just next to the Griffin Bay bookstore, perfect 1, 2 punch, (caffeine and books), and I'm glad I did.Got myself an Americano and breakfast burrito to go. "yummy for my tummy"heads up...if you're a tad claustrophobic, you might want to send in a friend...Way cool coffee joint, and a darn good cup 'o' Joe. Remember...don't blink

Visiting family on island , I was told to come to this shop for the best coffee . The first day I ordered an Americano - and the flavor of the coffee was delicious. The gal working was super sweet . I was so happy with the coffee I came back the next day . The line was LONG and there were maybe some orders happening that were separate from the line I was in , but the owner worked quickly and I enjoyed the overall atmosphere of standing with people all waiting to enjoy something delicious. I ordered another americano and a vanilla latte frappacino which my husband really liked . We came again before we left town , ordered the same for my husband and I ordered the Third Eye Latte , with soy milk. It was delicious! Just as described , cardamom and vanilla ish flavors . Really went well with the soy milk. The ratio of foam to soy was perfect ! So glad we were able to come here and we will be back next time we are on island .Dietary restrictions: Offers all milk alternatives.

We were craving the two vegan breakfast options, but they were out of food on a Saturday morning, so we decided to go elsewhere. Note: There is a narrow hallway leading to a counter where you order, but that's it--no seating at all.

Great little coffee nook. Had fantastic coffee, plus lots of local packaged gluten-free snacks (cookies, bras etc.).

We went to San Juan islands for a weekend and stopped by this shop for a coffee. It’s a small quaint to go shop I wouldn’t particularly say a cafe as there was no seating. It’s just an a small foyer like at home. It was pretty crowded on the afternoon we went. There was just one person working in bringing out the drinks. The drinks also seemed pretty expensive compared to big chain cafes.Ordered 2 dark mochas, the portion size was also too less in the cup ??‍♀️ not something we expected to carry along on the trip. It costed 12$ with extra for tip!!!! Pretty expensive I would say. Anyways it’s a one time pit stop if you’re in the island for a visit. A little too hyped rating on google imo!
