Cardinal Coffee

It's far too expensive in my opinion. However the staff were nice and friendly, even while being very busy. The bagel was good but it's the exact brand I buy from the grocery store myself. The coffee and hot coco weren't that great at all.

Awesome coffee shop. Tons of options. Everything is great! Takes a minute when you have a bunch of orders, but worth the wait!

Stopped for a latte for my husband. He said it was delicious.

slow service, bad coffee. good vibes and phone service at least. (Was originally a 3 star, but lowered due to owner response)
Edit: to the owners reply; the inability to receive criticism is both a symptom and cause of mediocrity. I've given 5 stars to many small businesses--this ain't a me thing. It's a bad coffee thing.
To everyone else: Beware of giving your actual opinions. I guess people here will shame you and threaten to slash your tires cause their skins too thin. Disappointing.
PS The phone service was better there for me cause I'm not from here, so I have a different cell provider. May be different for locals.

Cozy atmosphere with great coffee and bagels. Features pottery, jewelry and other items from local artists. The place and people working there have a nice vibe. Definitely worth a visit.

My wife and I were staying in a cabin on our honeymoon and the coffee maker they provided was terrible! We decided to try this coffee place at the bottom of the mountain and it was fantastic! We are going to go every morning until we leave. The coffee and smoothies were delicious, so glad we found this gem.

We loved this spot we came back two more times in our short stay near Bryson City. Delicious iced coffee, lovely staff, and incredible artwork/gift shop. Will be coming back when in the area!

Best place to eat, Best food and wonderful service! Everyone speaks to you! Just a great atmosphere! Very inexpensive. Can't say enough good things about this restaurant. Never got a bad meal here?

This is a beautiful place, perfectly located.

Came across this place on the way to Gatlingburg. Needed a break and decided to stop here, and are we glad we did. The best coffee we have had in the States since we arrived 2 weeks earlier... and we drink a lot of coffee!! ))). If you're passing, make sure you stop by, and if you've passed this place and not stopped, it worth turning back!
