This small café is very unassuming and doesn't look like much from the outside but as soon as you step in you will understand why it gets such good reviews. The space is inviting and well decorated but the staff is what really sets it apart. Everyone I have had a chance to interact with, and we have been back quite a few times, was very warm, welcoming and happy to help.
They have plenty of great lunch options, from soups to salads and even some more substantial dishes for those hungry teens. All of the dishes I have had, or sampled from other members in the family, have been tasty.
On top of that, they also do a great job at the basics, which is their coffee and drinks. In fact, they even have options for the kids. My daughter begs us to stop for the kids frappe anytime we are in the area.
Overall, I would highly recommend.

You should be able to use the wifi even if you don't purchase anything. That would make it better. Thanks to the kind lady that gave me the code even though I didn't purchase anything. I had coffee in my yetti in the car and was there to meet a client for 30 minutes. Other than that this is a nice vibe for meetings.

This cafe is a really great place! They just put up a permanent sign today so seems they will be around a while. I would gather from what I have experienced of late that these local coffee shops will take the inside gathering business(s) away from the likes of book stores and Starbucks. This coffee shop has more space than others and with windows around the front of shop it is bright with sun. I have the scrambled egg platter and a cortado regularly. It is my morning go to place.

This place is amazing! We had our daughter’s 13th birthday party here and it was a huge success!
Amber, the owner/manager was simply wonderful and went over the top to help with everything including helping with decorating and providing anything we needed.
Maci wanted a taco bar, so we prepared all the food and Amber supplied everything we needed to serve it all.
We give her and East 59 Cafe 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What a great addition to Lee Branch! We love getting to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning or between appointments. As real estate agents in town, we love being able to meet clients or other agents at a place like this!

I love their lattes especially the caramel iced latte add white chocolate mocha with oat milk and sometimes I get half in half

If the goal is to offer a welcoming space where the community can connect, then East 59 Cafe has truly surpassed the target! We held an event there for ~40 on Memorial Day weekend. I was blown away by all of the character in the space. It was beautiful! Minimal, if any, decorations were needed. The AV system was great and easy to use. Amber was Amazing! She responded quickly, and made sure we had everything we needed to pull off our event! Special shout out to Rudy and Kiri who went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed the night of the event! We felt so welcomed in the space, and our guest couldn't stop complimenting the venue! We will surely patronize East 59 in the future. Thanks for raising the bar!

This is the best coffee shop on 280. They just do everything right. Great employees, good coffee, good food and great prices. The atmosphere is just what you need. You can even use one of the rooms for your meetings and when you don’t want to WFH, but don’t want to go into the office, just bring your laptop and find a comfy seat there are plenty of those here.
