Oh my gooodnessssss!! My family and I are cookie fanatics and we have tried cookies from all over-…read moreand these cookies might be the very best I've ever had! They have a nice variety of flavors and they are baked fresh to order. The store is very a aesthetically pleasing. The decor and ambiance are beautiful. Service was also very friendly and helpful. The girl helped explain the different options and was patient while we debated all the amazing choices! I was unable to take any pictures of our cookies because my family and I devoured them the second the box hit the table! Hahaha. The cookies take about 15 minutes to be ready, so just be prepared to wait. Trust me, it's worth the wait!!

There are a lot of large cookie type shops out there and they always get it very very wrong…read more Appalachia is the exception. Brought my family in and we got 8 cookies to share over a weekend. The cheesecake cookie may be one of my favorite things ever, chewy and spiced perfectly, their ferrero rocher one has deep chocolate flavor. Family loved the chocolate chip, sugar and animal cracker flavor. Highly recommend. When we were in our way out of Boone heading back home we stopped and grabbed another 6. I also should add that ordering ahead will save you about 20 mins.

Great study spot. Indoor/outdoor seats. They roast coffee beans for most of the local spots in…read moreBoone. Homemade donuts too!!!!

Second attempt at posting a review here. I seem to be having technical difficulties?…read moreLovely warm small and rustic. The coffee is good as are the donuts. I had a cinnamon one. They are more bready than Dunkin' and I think that's a good thing. Not too sweet either. The staff are friendly and there is a drive through.

We ate here recently for breakfast when visiting from out of town. It's a cozy small cafe, where…read moreyou order at a counter and your food is brought out to you. There were initially no tables available once we ordered, but someone who had finished her meal quickly made her table available for us. We then noticed that all tables have a little sign requesting that tables be given to those who are dining, so that anyone who is just hanging out after their meal is courteous to those who wait. Food came out fairly quickly. I had a chai latte and hubby had a regular latte. Both were tasty. I had the Son of a Gouda, which was tasty, but not out of this world. Hubby and kiddo shared the Jump Starter which they enjoyed.

Overall: Stick Boy Kitchen was a decent spot for lunch. Food was normal, but the ambiance inside…read morewas great. Food: The food here was decent, but nothing particularly impressive. The sandwich and quiche both tasted good, but not unlike something you could get anywhere else. Service: The service was average for a small shop, a normal amount of wait for food to be ready. Ambiance: I think the ambiance of the place makes up for the food. On a cold day, this place provides a very warm "small town" feel. The wood furniture and open windows lets you peer outside and really feel the warm contrast between the weather outside and inside while you eat.

Called at 4:30pm on Saturday. Similar to other reviews, I didn't know if this cafe was permanently…read moreclosed, so I called them. Like others have mentioned, the woman who answered was very rude and with an attitude. This was the conversation: "hi, is this the cupcrazed cafe in blowing rock?" "how can I help you" "what are your hours today?" "we're not open" "so are you guys permanently closed?" "We're not open" "okay, what time do you guys open?" "we're not open this weekend" "okay bye bye". For whatever reason, they don't want customers, and they don't want people to know when they're open. Wild if people think they can run a restaurant that way. You couldn't pay me to go there now

Cupcrazed is my go-to dessert place in Boone! I love their huge variety of cupcakes including…read moregluten free & vegan options that are just as delicious as their regular cupcakes. They have cakes, cookies, donuts, coffee...and everything is amazing. I'm like a kid at a candy store every time I walk in. Take advantage of their specials that they post up on social media! There's days with $20 for a dozen cupcakes or even $1 cupcake days.

This is a small, really cute spot in Blowing Rock that we spotted while exploring the area. They…read morehave a ton of options but we weren't too hungry so just got a cookies & cream macaron. It wasn't the best macaron I've ever had, but it was certainly the biggest haha. Service was fast & friendly; ambiance isn't really applicable, Flavia's itself doesn't have seating. Street parking is free in Blowing Rock, I believe. 7.5/10 would recommend!

This place may be small but the desserts are outstanding. At least the two we finally chose...key…read morelime pie and blueberry lemon cake. Wow! Large enough to share and it's worth every dollar spent. We met the owner's daughter. She said she doesn't bake but her Mom bakes everything in the case--impressive. She said she's the taste tester. Not a bad position. The place is right on Main Street, but the front door faces the other way. We walked right by it and didn't see until we were walking back to our car.

I had a fantastic visit to Espresso News in Boone -- a classic mountain-town coffee shop with real…read morepersonality and seriously good drinks. At the recommendation of one of the knowledgeable baristas, I ordered the maple cardamom latte, and it absolutely delivered. The maple brought a warm, natural sweetness, while the cardamom added a subtle aromatic spice that made the whole drink feel layered and intentional. It was comforting without being heavy. That paired perfectly with a cinnamon orange white chocolate scone -- bright citrus notes, gentle spice, and just enough sweetness from the white chocolate to tie it all together. The flavors played off the latte beautifully. I finished with an amaretto latte, which was strong on the nose with that classic almond aroma, yet surprisingly smooth and easy on the palate. Bold but balanced -- a great way to end the visit. Great coffee, thoughtful flavor combinations, and baristas who know their craft. Espresso News is absolutely worth a stop when you're in Boone.

I highly recommend this place. I'm an out of towner and I came here with the intention of trying…read morelocal coffee shops. I was very satisfied. I made a safe bet and got a hot vanilla latte it's one of the best I've ever had. Don't think about it just give them a shot! The baristas could probably be a bit more friendly but overall not bad. The environment is great and very busy great vibes all around. I will be back!
