Busy but quick service. Good prices compared to what I have seen elsewhere at similar extractions

Everyone there is just super helpful and friendly. You always feel welcome.
Of course the coffee is great, they've been doing great coffee for years!
For food they have breakfast and lunch, also the usual coffee shop pastries. The scones are very good, especially the chocolate chip scones. The club panini is my favorite lunch.

Such a cute coffee shop with a great assortment of drinks. I was in the area and needed coffee and I saw that this one was top rated, and at the same time got recommendations from some locals to try this one! Sure enough their recommendations stood up to how great this place was!

It's my favorite coffee shop now....it's on my way to the airport....other than that it's a bit of a drive but I am always disappointed if it closed when I am driving by.

If your not open by 7 am is there a point of coffee, stopped for mocha and light breakfast snack, new location is attractive but drive through is jacked. The turn area and radius does not work with trucks. You would order from a window that is approx 8 feet from truck. They wasted pavement on a something they call a non functional drive through when it would have been better served as parking for customers who walk in. They were closed at 7 am on Saturday and lost us as a stopping place on the way to the cabin.
Got our items up the road from competitor who was open and it was very good.

What a great place to go for Breakfast!
Fresh! Clean! The positive music added the perfect touch. 😁😁 We had the Belgium Waffle Sandwich and the Sausage Biscuits and Gravy...both done to perfection!! The drinks are just as delicious! Mocha Cappuccino and Chai Tea Latte...yum and yum‼️
The Staff is exceptional. Kind and helpful.
We will be back!!! Even though we live 4 hours away‼️

Tl;dr: food was fine to good (see 2), staff needed more/better training which caused issues (see 1). Probably worth trying.
1. Experience:
The place itself was very cute! We stopped in about quarter after 5 to pick up something for dinner - not their main focus, obviously, but that wasn't an issue. They stop serving hot food after lunch (that's definitely fair!), but the cold sandwiches and wraps were all still options. So far, so good!
The first issue came when we asked if there were any kinds of peppers in the cranberry chicken salad (one of our party has an allergy). The three staff that were there offered their opinions or vague memories of what was in there (one mentioned a recipe book, but none of them actually went and got it), but in the end they told us that there wasn't anything like that in the salad. I had a vague memory of already deciding the cranberry salad wasn't an option, though, so I pulled up my phone and found the online menu which did list the ingredients, which include red bell peppers. The person serving us remembered that they were there when I said this out loud, so we got confirmation, but I wish we didn't have to go off of vague memories from looking up a restaurant to avoid eating allergens. It would have been nice to be able to trust the staff to know what was in the food.
The second issue was with the order itself. All three of us ordered half sandwiches (I appreciate that that is an option!), but after paying and looking at the receipt, we noticed that one of them was listed as a full sandwich. The person who took our order was already off making the sandwiches, so we got the attention of the other two staff that were behind the counter. They told us they could tell the one making the sandwiches the correct order, but that they didn't know how to refund it anyway, so we said we'd wait and they went back to what they were doing. When the first person came back with our order, we asked again - they offered to go back and fix the sandwich itself so that it was only a half, but agreed that they couldn't give us the refund when I asked. So...we just took the full sandwich that we didn't order because there didn't seem to be any other alternative?
Obviously this isn't a huge deal in the long run - a small amount of wasted food and wasted money in relative terms - but it's not a good thing that none of the people there had been trained on how to fix an incorrect order. Whether they refunded the difference or cancelled the order entirely and re-did it correctly, we wouldn't have cared, but they didn't have enough training to do either of those. Whoever is in charge of training, please do better by your staff!
2. Food
Ok, the food! We ordered to go. Cranberry chicken salad sandwich got ordered by a different (non-allergic) member of our party and apparently didn't have any actual cranberry taste. That was disappointing, but otherwise it wasn't a bad sandwich. The deli sandwiches we got both tasted good!
+1000 kudos for wrapping the included pickle in paper so that my chips and sandwich were not soggy when I got to them. Seriously, thank you for that!! Soggy pickle-chips are the worst.
-----------
So in conclusion, probably a bit of a fluke experience-wise, but it leaves you feeling pretty uncomfortable when this kind of thing is your first experience with a new place. Still worth a try if you're just looking for a quick deli sandwich!
