    Latte Menu
    H D.

    Cool coffee place (they have food items & Red Bulls & teas too) in a small, older redone building in Star. I have come here several times and love the coffee here. The parking here is tight but doable alongside their drive thru. Just be aware entering & exiting the roadway. Their coffee menu is extensive. If you can think of it they probably already have and it is being made here. See their menu Board and also the latte menu and mocha menu. (See my pics of those) You are greeted warmly when you enter and the baristas get to work & make your drink and bring it out to you. You can sit inside, outside on the deck/ patio or at tables in front if you want to watch the traffic go by. Very comfortable, casual spot to meet a friend , family or a business colleague. Small restroom inside and napkins on table round out this comfortable experience. Prices seem high but you are supporting a local business so there is that. The price though includes someone handcrafting your selected drink and carefully making sure it is made to perfection. Some employees remember you and welcome you back. Sometimes they even put a chocolate covered coffee bean on your drink lid. I would definitely recommend this place and will be back!

    Iced Carmel Macchiato with soft top

    This place is great!! I LOVE their coffee drinks! My favorite is the Iced Carmel Macchiato with soft top. It is probably my favorite in the whole valley so far! They also have delicious breakfast wraps if you're looking for a small meal. I love to get their homemade raspberry scones, and ask them to warm it just a bit - DELICIOUS! If you're questioning whether to try this place out, consider this your sign to GO! Stop what you're doing and go! AND..If you're looking for a place to get a coffee drink and study, this place is great for that. One of my go to's!

    Fantastic coffee! Everyone enjoyed their drinks. Super friendly staff and clean coffee shop. The parking is a bit tight and it's easy to miss the place, so pay attention.

    Large menu!

    Friendly staff, great coffee and lots of flavor options! I was impressed by the amount of flavor options they have, there's over 30!

    Menu photos because I had a hard time finding it online.

We were here this evening (Wednesday). The place was busy but not so much that we had to wait for a table, and in fact were seated at a nice booth. It's a little loud, though you can still carry on a conversation. My wife had the salmon dinner. My daughter had the BLT with fries. Both liked their choices. My sampled my daughter's fries and they were pretty crispy and well seasoned. I had to go with what I had last time: the Bee Sting pizza. Love the feta with spicy sausage and honey drizzle. Delicious. My daughter and I had a Hazy IPA, very good. Maybe next time I'll try something different, because most certainly we'll be back.

    This didn't quite meet my expectations based on what I had heard about Proof. We went for our…read moreanniversary, and I would say the food was good but not stand out. I felt the $23 Mac & Cheese could have used a pasta that caught more sauce (ie more grooves) and the sauce was a little thick and not saucy and creamy. Perhaps that's personal preference. The appetizers were good but I think the server automatically gave us the larger wing order instead of asking which size we wanted. It was more than 2 people needed at 2lb of wings for an app. The potato skin spring rolls were almost there. They needed deeper color on the fry, and it seemed to only have what felt like mashed potato inside. I appreciated the crisp on the wings - a little heavy on the seasoning on some parts. The server was attentive! No complaints there. I do appreciate however if the timing of the entrees is spaced well to give time to eat the appetizers. This did not happen. Why are the floors so sticky? I may or may not go again. I don't think I'd go to Star from Caldwell just to go. For the price, I expected a higher level of attention to detail.

    My husband and I made our way to Star today to run a couple errands. We were both starving so I…read moresuggested going to Star Country Cafe for Brunch. This joint has been on my to go list so today was the perfect day too try it out! It was about 1 when we made our way there and we were hoping that the breakfast/brunch rush had kind of slowed down. There was a table ahead of us. My husband and I decided to sit at the bar since therewere a couple spots open. We wanted to save the table for a family that needed more room. And we actually like sitting at the bar. We sat ourselves and kinda of waited for sone service. It was very busy still so it took a minute for someone to help us. No problem, my husband and I just chilled till someone got to us. We finally got coffee and juice started while we were looking over the menu. The gal that got my coffee was sweet. She got me fresh creamer and sweetner packets so I didn't have to use the communal packets. I appreciate how understanding she was about my requests and my want to protect my new kidney. The menu has a lot of options which was great! Everything sounded tasty since we were so hungry! My husband grabbed the 2 biscuits and gravy meal with 2 eggs. I got the Tomlet with some spinach added without the hashbrowns and toast. Our food came out fast and hot! It all looked so good. My omelet had hamburger, olives, onions, cheese, jalapenos and fresh spinach. It was just what I wanted! I added sour cream and salsa to that baby, it was so good! My husband's biscuits and gravy were massive! The best homemade biscuits and gravy we ever had came from a gas station in Athens, Ga. These biscuits and gravy were busy as good! They are the best we have had in town! The biscuits were fluffy and airy, not too dense. The gravy was savory and rich. I don't know what kind of sausage they used but it was really good! Sausage gravy is a 50/50 for us but this gravy was killer! Everything was so fantastic! We ate every bite of our food and didn't regret it one bit! I appreciate the small, hometown feel of this restaurant. Servers knowing their guests by their first names. The prices were reasonable. The coffee was hot and my cup was always filled. The food was killer good! Our service was great. This joint is a little further than our normal brunch joints but they are so worth the drive! I look foward to coming back and having another great meal! And having one of them massive cinnamon rolls will be a must as well!

The standout for me was definitely the mixed berry crepes. They were really good with plenty of fresh berries and were my favorite thing we ordered. The biscuits and gravy also had a really flavorful gravy, and even the half order was a huge portion. The kids waffle was also much bigger than expected and came loaded with strawberries and whipped cream. The prices were a little higher than I'd typically expect for breakfast most entrees were around $17+, the special was around $18, and kids meals were about $10. That said, the portion sizes are very generous, so you definitely aren't leaving hungry. The food was good and the portions were excellent, everything came out fresh and fast . While it wasn't the absolute best breakfast I've ever had, it was a solid meal with great serving sizes. If you're looking for hearty portions and homemade -style breakfast, Janet's Cafe is worth trying.

    Update: Even before we actually moved to the Treasure Valley, we have been coming to The Tavern. We…read morehave been here now for nearly two years, and we came here today, Friday, for an early dinner. It was not crowded, and we were seated right away. For some reason, we were seated in a corner booth near the bathrooms, while other customers were seated elsewhere in the restaurant. We didn't mind, however, because it was nice and quiet. And, for me, convenient. My wife had the Sirloin Salad, and I had the Ahi Poke Salad. My wife said that her meat was cooked the way she likes it, and the rest of the ingredients were delicious. For me, the ahi, sesame vinaigrette dressing, wonton strips, onions, and greens were very good. The food is always good at The Tavern. And, the prices are reasonable. Unlike our past experiences, the service this time around was not up to our usual. Our server, Hannah C., seemed in a rush and impatient. Though she told us to ask her if we had questions, I didn't find her responses to be pleasant. The first dish my wife was interested in had Boursin cheese. My wife had not heard of it, and she cannot eat a lot of cheese. She preferred something milder, like mozarella. When she inquired of Hannah, the reply was terse. "We don't have mozarella." "Do you have another milder cheese?" "Like what?" Not in a nice way, and not professional, in my opinion. And, she was loud. We waited longer than usual for our food, and when Hannah brought it, she just dropped the plates and split. To her credit, she did check in on us once during our meal. Now I don't know what kind of day Hannah was having. Maybe not so good. I don't know what kind of person she is, and I'll give her the benefit of the doubt that she is a nice woman. Hopefully she is not like how she was with us to all of her customers. I'm a 20% tipper. For her, it was 18%. I wasn't given a choice, but I would have gone down to 15%.

    After my last visit (previously reviewed), I haven't been back. My husband wanted to take me…read moresomewhere "nicer" and took me to Tavern. I was a little apprehensive, which unfortunately, my apprehension was warranted. We arrived around 5:45pm on a Thursday night and were asked if we could wait for 20 minutes. We sat and waited...and waited...and 2 other couples came in and were offered bar or outside seating instead of waiting (seriously?!?! We weren't given those options). One took the outside seating, the other opted to wait as well. We watched at least 6+ parties leaving, but we continued to wait. After 35 minutes, we were finally seated....and there were several empty booths around us. It took almost 10 minutes before our server arrived, so we had our orders ready. Drinks came about 10 minutes after ordering. Dinner came out at 7:15 pm. We had no idea this experience would be this long. Food looked great, but after one bite into my Cajun chicken club, I was really disappointed. The chicken was stringy-dry (at least my jaw got a workout) and the buns were borderline burnt instead of toasted. All the other ingredients (bacon, lettuce, tomato, cheese) were fresh and thankfully, enabled me to eat most of the sandwich. We rarely saw our server and both me and my husband ran out of drinks (we even finished off both waters) before she showed up for a refill. We didn't leave there until almost 8pm. Server was very nice, but the pace was a tad too slow...to the point of being absent. Hubby enjoyed his Tavern burger.

Many mother's day outings here with my daughter before I worked my 13 hour shift serving other moms. It will forever hold the best memories for me. It has been close to 9 years since I have eaten here. Moving towards the north end created a big distance between us. But I was in the area with my neice today so we stopped in for breakfast. There's no other place in Meridian that I'd rather eat breakfast at! I remember this joint when the old owners owned it. It honestly was run down, old and dated. Your typical greasy spoon. My friend, Bob, took it over about 10 years ago and has totally given it the face lift it needed. It's brighter, cleaner and welcoming. I love the fresh flowers with our beautiful country's flag by the front door. I love the flowers painted on the windows too, it gives it such a fun appearance. I love the bright white building with the black trim. I love the bright lines in the parking lot. It's been revamped outside and it's gorgeous. Inside of the venue has had work done as well. The drapes were red, white and blue to go with the 4th of July. I love that they decorated for America's birthday. I'm sure they change it through the different holidays. The lighting is brighter. The decor is simple and fun. It just looks cleaner and fresh inside. It's not the old greasy spoon it used to be. My neice and I decided to sit at the bar, that's where my daughter and I used to eat at all the time. Kaitlyn greeted us and got our drinks started. I got hot coffee and my neice got an orange juice. I appreciate the creamer they had neatly placed by the condiments. It was nice not to have them just thrown in a bowl. Little details like that are fantastic. After breezing over the menu, we got our food placed with Kaitlyn. I got the popeye omelet with only 2 eggs instead of 3, cheddar instead of Swiss with no onions or mushrooms. I got fruit instead of bread and potatoes. My neice got the Belgian waffle with strawberries and whipped cream on top with a side of hashbrowns. My omelet was cooked perfectly. It had a generous amount of spinach. We know spinach shrinks really bad when it's cooked and vanishes. You can tell they didn't hold back with the spinach. The cheese was nice and melty in the middle. Even though I asked for my omelet to be 1 egg shy of it's normal 3, I only ate half. It was a hearty omelet. My fruit was ok. It wasn't fresh fruit but I didn't mind. I ate a much as I could. My neice polished half of her huge waffle. It looked tasty with the berries and whipped cream. The side of hashbrowns was no joke. It was such a huge portion! We ate about a third of it and took the rest home to enjoy later. My friend, Bob has done such an amazing job making this place his own. Express Cafe will always be one of Meridian's best breakfast joints. The amount of years it's been around speaks for itself. I'm so proud of Bob and all that he's done. The food was good today. Service from Kaitlyn was fantastic! I'm just sad that it took my close to 9 years to come back. That's going to change and I look forward to having Express Cafe be a part of my day sometime soon. I won't allow another 9 years to pass by.
