I love the atmosphere. I love how spacious this place is option wise of where to sit and enjoy your coffee and local pastry. I love supporting local businesses. I got the pecan rose latte which was so scrumptious, can't wait to try more and I also got the chocolate crossiant one of my go to faves!
Great coffee, awesome environment. Indoor and outdoor seating with great view. Highly recommend
Such a meet place for coffee and the baristas are really talented with latte art. This is a must visit coffee shop to meet with friend or do a-little work. The mugs are also a nice touch!
My favorite place to get a light roast coffee.
Always 100% on the service and the drinks. Our favorite coffee shop as coffee snobs. 😍
Great coffee, baked goods and amazing service!
Shaded Bloom is a small specialty coffee roaster based in Clarkston. My brother is a longtime customer of theirs (they hand delivered to his house early in th pandemic!) and likes the coffee quite a lot. So, when we found out that their planned cafe in Lake Orion had opened, we decided to go together to check it out. I will say that I was, on the whole, very satisfied. There is a wide variety of espresso drinks, pour-overs, and a quality selection of pastries from Fenton-based Crust bakery. During my half hour or so at the cafe, I drank two servings of espresso, and the extractions were done well and were consistent. I also want to note my appreciation for the tasteful decoration and the owners' community engagement in Lake Orion, e.g. by sponsoring little league baseball. Now a few quibbles: Even on a weekday morning, it was difficult to find a seat because so many places were taken by guests working on laptops. This is a problem that many cafes face and a difficult one to address. It is also a question of guest etiquette. But keep in mind that if you come to visit to chat with a friend over coffee, you might not find a suitable place as a result. Finally, and I think this is ultimately a matter of taste, but although I found my espresso to be drinkable and well-pulled, I am not really a fan of the profile of the coffeehouse blend. It's a combination of washed and natural processed beans and is roasted a bit dark for my preference (which skews light). I would appreciate a single-origin alternative espresso, perhaps on a rotating basis.
I’m not a coffee drinker. I can get a good cup of tea here and the atmosphere is great!
This is my favorite coffee spot. It‘s so cozy and the coffee is excellent and they have gluten-free and dairy free muffins as well. Unfortunately they now close at 3 pm, so I will not be able to go there too often any more as I often went there after work. Maybe I will make it there every now and then on a Saturday…
The best coffee shop on the planet. The coffee, the aesthetic, and the vibes are all immaculate.
Fantastic atmosphere to work in with great staff!
Great selection, staff and environment!
Great baristas who are very friendly. My mocha was one of the best I've had. Great view of the park.
The coffee is amazing! The Pastries are phenomenal! The service is excellent! The Barista (The blonde girl) is Super friendly. She made your coffee with love and a smile. I highly recommend the Scone cookie and the chocolate croissant with your coffee. I don't usually write a Google review, but you guys deserve it.
By FAR one of my favorite places, the natural lighting is beautiful. Good music. Amazing people. There's alternative milk options. I LOVE it here! Amazing for studying.
My first visit here and I fell in love! The latte was not boring tasting, like most cafe's. And the baked goods were outstanding. I also loved the openness and general vibe of the outside/inside.
Very nice ambience and tasty coffee drinks and pastries, but I really wish they were open on Sundays.
Landon is an incredible barista- thank you! He made me a maple mocha with oat milk, and it’s my new favorite drink.
I bought a bag of ground coffee to take home and the next morning my husband and I were both having the most enjoyable coffee experience! I will never be able to buy Grocery coffee ever again! Not sure if this is a good or a bad thing 😂
Our go-to coffee shop! The owners are so friendly and the coffee is excellent. My only complaint is the pastry selection is sometimes limited and definitely is fresher on some days than others (brought in from Crust).
