We had coffee, tea and my husband had muffins from Basecamp while we were in Saugatuck. It was always busy, but the wait was minimal. Fun vibe and friendly staff. read more

Picked up a cold brew from the cute little truck and it was perfect on a hot day. Strong and smooth. I'll need to try the waffles next time :) read more

To start off, the location is amazing with views of the river and the chain ferry. The ambience is something to long for. The service was prompt and friendly. However, this was overshadowed by the low quality of the food. I got the Caravan Chicken waffle. The chicken was extremely basic, just cheap tenders you could buy frozen at your local grocery. The waffle was a sponge, super soft and thin. Not the delicious waffle you envision when you crave one. The syrup is cheap maple flavored high fructose corn syrup. Overall I would not recommend wasting your money on this location when there is so many other amazing places around. read more

What a cool concept! Coffee shop in a converted van! It's a popular place though so make sure you're down to wait and hang out. The seating area is a great spot and the view to the lake is really nice too! The staff was super nice and very transparent about the wait times so it was really nice to hear. The food and coffee were great! I got the caravan chicken and waffles. The waffle had a nice toast but still soft. The chicken was really good too! And the syrup wasn't too sweet, so it was perfect! As a huge coffee fan, the cold brew is really good! Great taste, strong and bold, and even without sugars or anything, it's great! I definitely suggest visiting! read more

We were so excited to eat here but were extremely disappointed. We ordered a Lemon Lake waffle for $12. We didn't see any lemon curd but lifted the whipped cream to find a dollop the size of a nickel. It was almost as if they knew there was barely any lemon curd so they hit it under the whipped cream. I went back to the window and they tried opening a new jar of curd and couldn't get it opened so they did their best to scrape the bottom of a jar of lemon curd and gave me about a quarter size amount in a small cup. Very disappointing. The Campfire Chocolate was $9.50 and they were a very tiny drizzle of Nutella on top. My daughters love Nutella and that being the first item listed we were certainly expecting more. We also shared a Caravan Chicken for $9.50 and were also not impressed. It comes with three small chicken strips (not freshly battered & fried, they seemed to come frozen then fried) and served without syrup unless you ask for it which is 75¢. Lastly, we ordered 2 16oz Latte's for $5.85 each and they were warm at best. I would've assumed them to be hot and this wasn't the case. The overall flavor was good but I personally felt that for the price, they were definitely lacking. I loved the atmosphere outside and their setup was adorable. The staff was friendly so that was a plus. I'm glad we had the experience but I doubt we will be returning. read more

The matcha was brown... they need to get a new recipe or take it off the menu. Coffee was decent nothing to write home about. When it came up on the counter I thought they accidentally made my hot coffee iced. read more

The stand is very cute and there's lots of seating around. I had a great cafe miel. Several people in my group had cold brew, and they commented that it tasted extremely strong like it had brewed too long. The waffles looked tasty! read more

I noticed this cute little coffee truck while walking around Saugatuck recently. There's a nice seating area where you can enjoy your coffee and waffles, so I stopped by on a quiet morning and grabbed a vanilla latte. The waffle options sounded good - there were a couple savory choices and some sweet flavors - but I had my heart set on a breakfast sandwich from a different shop, so I just went with the coffee. The employees were quick and kind and I had my latte in hand in just a few minutes. The latte was lightly sweet with the vanilla syrup and creamy from the oat milk. I'd definitely stop by again in the future and try a waffle. There's a grilled cheese shack in this same area that sounded great, too! I'm not sure if they're associated businesses or not. A cute spot for a quick pick me up. read more

Great waffles and fast service with no wait. We were there early (8:30am) on a Sunday morning and it was quiet with plenty of seating. The lemon and blueberry waffle was fantastic. My husband had the one with Nutella and he said it was great as well. read more

Decent amount of parking for Saugatuck and the waffles were great. I think they could use a vegan savory option.

What a cute and simple concept! We got a couple of cold brews and savory waffles. It was all so good. read more
