The Rustic Muffin

Very refreshing to have a family owned coffee shop and bakery right beside work! As a Realtor, coffee fuels me! <3 Convenient location and great coffee/food! Highly recommend!

Our family really loves it here!
Gotta try the jalapeno bagels and iced coffee .
My High school son just sent me this text message a few days ago. **** mom? bring me a da Bronx from rustic muffin and give me $10 at the game instead of $20 to cover my da Bronx ****
This happens at least 2x's a week. I can't blame him, because they are the BEST!

Very nice little place! The decor is really good and not "in your face" rustic, very tasteful. The food is always good. Def a much needed place for us out on Highway 176.

Great little shop! Went to the shopping center for another reason and decided to stop in since I had heard great things about it. I love blueberry muffins but none were available. This was around noon so maybe once an item sells out there isn't any more made. I tried a cinnamon roll ( I believe that was the name) with pecans and a muffin with carrots and raisins. Both were great. I will try to go earlier next time to see more variety of items.

Outstanding place! Food is always phenomenal and they’re always accommodating to anything you might want. You can’t go wrong here. The staff and the owners are wonderful. If you’re going to give your money to a place, give it to a small business that takes care in the product they’re serving!

Very tiny/tight place but homey. Coffee is good and big sizes for the price. We also had their Tuscan pizza bagel. Yum 😋
We got a huge muffin, bagel, and a large coffee for about $7. Not bad.
Right now its super busy because they recently opened so theres a lot of people. There was a pair of woman taking up an entire corner booth table to themselves to run a business out of basically. I don't know if they own the place or not but still extremely rude to take up so much space for so long when there's so many people waiting to get food and would perhaps like to sit too.
If you're going here when its busy please be considerate and don't sit around long after you finished eating.

The Rustic Muffin is the newest gem located just a short distance from Cane Bay. The neighborhood Facebook page has been raving about how incredible the bagels and coffee are so I made this a must try. I came in around 10:45 and the parking lot was packed. Not a spot to be had. However, people were walking out as fast as they were walking in, so I managed to grab a spot and head in. The atmosphere has quite the charm and I could feel so much positive energy. There were three young ladies staffing the counter and constantly smiling and moving with a purpose. They provided excellent customer service and did so with efficiency.
I just finished my Jalapeno Bagel with Jalapeno cream cheese and I'll have to say it was probably the best bagel I've ever eaten. The bagel was lightly toasted and had a perfect amount of cream cheese applied. The Cane Bay Bold coffee is equally as amazing. I drink it black of course, and this is just the right amount of smooth and bold to be perfect for any time of day. I'm always hesitant when I hear so many great reviews because it puts it on a pedestal, but fortunately, The Rustic Muffin delivered. I'll be back this weekend to try a bacon, egg, and cheese bagel. Thank you and welcome to the Bay.

Love the coffee and bagels. Best in area. However don’t know why they have to serve alcoholic beverages at a coffee shops. Last 3 times we visited well before closing they were out of all bagels and no muffins. They were even out of signature coffee. Finally stopped and had a light lunch to sit by loud group that was drinking beer. Really? Won’t return anytime soon. Not sure why they can’t focus on good bagels and muffins like they did when they opened. Now it is quantity and beer instead of quality environment.

What an awesome place. Lots of choices. Great coffee. The people were great!

Met a friend here for lattes and it did not disappoint. A cute local place which checks all of the boxes ✔️
