It was my second time to Pedaling Beans and I will continue to return. The staff is the best part - kind, engaging, full of lightness. The food - pastries from 9 Bean Rows and fresh baked peanut butter cookies. Hard to argue with that. The coffee - what a delight. I got a hazlenut latte with oat milk - nutty, delicious, hot and perfect. I hadn't planned to stay but the atmosphere was welcoming with soft music and cozy seats facing the windows, so I ended up relaxing with my hubby and enjoying a surprise respite in a lovely place. Highly recommend.

Got the order wrong and the owner was very rude when we kindly asked for them to remake our 4 drinks that we spent over $25, plus tip. She was very blunt in assuming the mix up was our fault. The two young girls making the drinks, were very sweet and professional, maybe they should run the coffee shop!

My favorite coffee house on the lake. Nothing like a Shot in the dark to kick start your morning!

Most of the time I have a good experience and a great drink. I’m taking off 1 star because they often close early or change hours without updating them anywhere. I’m taking off another star because it can be luck of the draw on which barista you get and not all make the drinks the same way, so the taste is inconsistent. 70% of the time it’s great.

I've been stopping in for coffee at Pedaling Beans for years. Great coffee, beverages, and some light food choices. They have a comfortable inside seating area to enjoy talking with friends or use the wifi (there is a picnic table outside too). Their restroom is clean and large. Also they are located near the only bridge crossing the actual Lake Leelanau for miles around.

UPDATE 9/13/21. 1 Star changed to 4 Stars Owner contacted me with an explanation and sincere apology. I responded in kind. Their mocha and blueberry muffins are delicious. I suggested that when an order has to be corrected that it should be moved up on the priority list to reduce wait time, and a few simple words like "sorry for the wait" would have gone a long way to smooth everything out. ‐-------‐------------------------- Horrifying experience. Only reason why there are aren't a string of one star reviews is because most people that come here figure "why bother". I ordered a large mocha with an extra shot of espresso and blueberry muffin. I waited and watched as 10 people behind me received their orders. When I inquired, no one acknowledged me, until 5 minutes later when my name was called...my order was wrong...small instead of a large and no extra shot of espresso, which I had already been charged. I sat and watched as 6 more orders were filled. I asked if they could please fill my order before finishing others. When they did, they rolled their eyes, pushed it toward me with a smart aleck smirk, as if I did something wrong. A simply remark apologizing for the delay would have been appropriate And, but instead, an angry older woman appeared and shouted "Is there a problem?" Before I could respond, she yelled "Get the hell out of here!" My friends and I were astonished until we spoke with other business owners in Lake Leelanau that said they had the same experience with this business. Their hurtful, insensitive behavior was followed by more shouting to "never come back!" Lol...as if. Simply the worst. When this place goes out of business (sooner than later I'm guessing) I'm sure their former jobs as prison guards will still be waiting for them. What a stain on this otherwise bucolic village.
