I should have come in years ago. Due to the proximity to the jewelry store, I assumed North Cove would be expensive and snobby, but this is a great lesson in never judging a book by the cover of the book beside it!
When we walked in, I was surprised to see lots of warm colors, with soothing lights. The subtle mix of decor (hanging coil bulbs and inset LEDs) really works to give it a classy yet comfortable ambiance.
Our drinks were cheap but tasty, and I was excited to learn they have white coffee! The chicken pesto panini came out a little black on the crust, but the flavor made up for it. The chicken pesto melts in your mouth, the chicken isn't dry and the pesto isn't overwhelming. It's not so packed that it's spilling, but when you bite into it, it's so flavorful and full that it feels like a a whole chicken.
My only real negative is that it's quiet and lifeless, at least during my visit. Only 2 other customers were here. Maybe it's a slow day, but I'd love to see more excitement here. Even a bit of background music would be good.
All in all, will visit again soon!

This is a truly wonderful coffee shop!
A very friendly, welcoming, coat yet roomy spot. The coffee is expertly crafted and has something for everyone. The lattes and one of the best I've ever had. The coffee is roasted in house from fair trade coffee brought in from Ethiopia (see my photo).
Got to chat with the owner and he was super cool and learned a lot.
Great souvenirs and goodies for purchase. All the art in the wall is for sale for reasonable prices- something I LOVE that isn't seen often anymore!
The food is all local or made there. Lots of gluten free options. Yummo! Highly recommend the spinach and feta pinwheel. Filling and delicious for under $5 with leftover to take home. So so good! Recommended by the barista. Lots of sugar and sugar alternative options.
Coffee is served a la "Friends" style if you drink there, in mugs. So cool. All different and lovely and quirky. Cutlery is real and the plates aren't paper. Gotta love being green as this place is very much so!
One if my new favorite places for sure. They also have love music once a month, so keep an eye out and support your local artist and coffee shop so they can continue having artists in to perform!

It’s a nice coffee house with art on the walls decorated for the holidays. The baristacute In a Seahawks sweatshirt poured my cappuccino too milky but fine overall.
I got a molasses cookie too ... which was fine as well.

North Cove Coffee is a must visit. It's honestly my favorite coffee shop I've ever been to. The atmosphere is relaxing and it's been a great hangout place to catch up with friends. Owner is the sweetest guy imaginable and the drinks and food are FANTASTIC!! If I lived closer I'd be going here every day.

I love the coffee, it has a really smooth taste, and has always been made with care. They have multiple Gluten Free options, and they have AMAZING scones! The atmosphere is fantastic, and customer service is always on point!

Super fun environment. I go here 1-3 times per week to play games with my husband. I super like all the food I've tried here. The coffee is pretty good, though I do enjoy the taste at a few drive-through stands more than here. The staff is all super friendly, welcoming and kind.

Great local business! The owner is a Veteran, which I certainly appreciate.
My go-to drink is perfect every time, the atmosphere is relaxed and warm.
Nice water feature inside and outdoor seating for those lovely sunny days.
For a pleasant surprise, I recommend the oatmeal or the veggie hummus wrap. The oatmeal is steel cut and served with nuts, fresh berries, brown sugar, butter and your milk of choice including several non dairy options
( all on the side).
The wrap has a variety of fresh veggies and just the right amount of hummus on a fluffy pita, served with chips and a pickle.
That also have a rewards program that gives you a free drink after you buy several. Great little spot!

I really like going here any time I go by. Harder to compete now with Woods Coffee in town but this is definitively better than Starbucks, other than the speed of service. Well, I guess the inside of a Starbucks is often a better work environment. Either way, go here. Get thr True Vanilla Latte iced or hot. It's delicious.

Staff was very nice. But latte was bitter and scone was ??? At first good flavor but once chewed doughy just odd texture. Store was clean had good choice of seating tables or comfy chairs.

Cozy spot despite its strip mall location. Great price on a steamer which is my drink of choice. One person was running the place at 730am and she was quite busy between inside customers and the drive through, so I ended up waiting a little bit. Yummy treats.
