La Conner Calico Cupboard Café & Bakery

My husband's fish tacos were great. I ordered the pot pie and it was not so great. The flavor and outer crust was good but the other crust in the middle part was almost raw. I told the server and showed her the inedible piece. She did say she was sorry but didn't do anything about it.

This is a very beautiful restaurant located at the end of the tourist town of La Conner. The restaurant offers outdoor seating with lakeside views, perfect for enjoying on a nice day. However, compared to the lovely ambiance, the food is rather average.

Loved the quiche! The pumpkin cinnamon roll was good. Service was confusing. Can't order at counter for a bakery item and simply sit down. I guess they need the gratuities. ?

Great staff. Great food. Pretty setting. We bought many items from the bakery. This is a must visit location. We will be back!

It’s hard to fathom that a restaurant this size and this busy would only have one single use restroom. They need to have a sign up sheet for that just like the sign up sheet to be seated for dining.

We started our order with a cinnamon roll for our table of three to share. It did not arrive until we saw our server again delivering our breakfast order—and we had to remind her we were still waiting for the cinnamon roll.

It is clear that they are understaffed and that the staff they have are amateur at best with no training or supervision. My next visit to La Conner will not include breakfast at the Calico Cupboard.

And yes, this review was influenced by a full bladder and low blood sugar—the perfect storm for a hangry, hangry hippo!

Terrible experience with this place. Our server was rude bordering on insanely nasty. Lukewarm coffee, quiche was cold with no offer to warm it up. Asking questions was like pulling teeth. We felt insulted. Even Starbucks does better than this. Sad, considering there are at least half a dozen other coffee shops nearby we could have visited.

Great coffee, cinnamon roll French toast, corned beef hash, and toffee bar. All the pastries are amazing and the breakfasts are so good. Right on the waterfront. Definitely worth the $$. It’s an experience!

We've been here on a couple of trips and this has been one of our favorites for breakfast. However, on our most recent trip we were pretty disappointed in how much the service has gone down. There's one particular hostess that doesn't smile and makes you feel as if you're annoying her just by walking in. (For the love of breakfast, DONT YOU DARE stand in the entryway after you sign in.....) Our food was good but the service took away from the experience. Side note: if you have a morning sweet tooth, you need to try the cinnamon roll French toast.

I came down from Vancouver for an impromptu visit to La Conner. This is a great place to eat and to grab some decadent bakery goods. The old-fashioned cinnamon bun was scrumptious! The staff were very friendly and attentive, and you can see they take pride in their work. This place is definitely worth a visit. Cheers!

I had a denver omelet with a side of potatos and soudough toast. It was fantastic! My wife had a ham and cheese croissant she really enjoyed. The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was just what you want from a breakfast restaurant/ cafe in La Conner.
