My favourites so far are the honey lavender latte and the matcha, both so tasty and well made. Tons of seating space inside and outside The baristas are always friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. We also tried the breakfast burrito and grilled cheese, and both were really tasty. Definitely a spot worth visiting! Tons of parking spots too!

We chose their cranberry scones, and tried their specialty treat (I forget its exact name now) made with dates, nuts and chocolate, covered in sesame seeds. The scones were warmed up for us, they tasted fluffy and nice. Those mysterious treats were a sensation! Their layered, sophisticated flavor was a pleasant surprise. On the walls were displayed (for sale) photo artworks of a local artist. Since the shop was closing down for the day, and we were the only customers left, the young barista had a nice chat with us, during which she taught me the nicknames for Canadian dollar coins: one dollar is called "looney" and 2-dollar "tuny". I was very happy to leave the tuny with her :-)

Outfitters Grind is attached to a Thriftway (entrances both through the grocery store and from outside). Although it doesn't have a lot of seating, it's a quaint little cafe with all kinds of things to buy. The whoopie pies were tempting! There were so many flavor options I was curious about (they have quite a long list!), but I settled on the breve mocha on their main menu. The breve mocha was quite delicious, but it could've been a bit richer. Service was nice enough, nothing stood out about it but the workers were definitely respectful, so I have no complaints there. If I return to Forks, I'm coming back here for sure!

This server is very rude. We were the only customer and she was rushing us and kept rolling her…read moreeyes when we asked her questions about their drinks. She told us we can have it hot or cold and however we want it, but when we picked one with energy drink she rolled her eyes and said, "that has an energy drink in it." We changed our order as there's no point in pointing out that she did say we can have it HOT or COLD. Duh! We read the menu; hence, the questions. We don't know what kind of tricks this coffee shop have up in their sleeves - considering "TWILIGHT" is plastered everywhere.

It's situated in the Brentwood Bay in a cute spot with a fairly large patio overlooking the harbour. The menu was not huge but there were a number of gluten-free options that were delicious.

The tostado was supposed to come with prawns, but I only got six in total and they were very hard and overcooked. There was also a very small amount of avocado on the crispy tortilla. I asked if the dish could be prepared again but was told that is how they serve it. Definitely wouldn't order that again, but will try a few other things as the experience of sitting on the deck with such a great view is very special! The server was very professional and nice.

This place is a charming cafe located in Friday Harbor…read more The food and drinks here were absolutely spectacular. We ordered a few lattes made with their in-house syrups, and every single one of them was incredible. We loved them so much we went back for them again and again over the weekend we were there. We also tried their chorizo burrito and donuts, which were both outstanding. I honestly want to go back to the island just to eat here again! The ambiance of the place is awesome. It is super kid-friendly outside, featuring a wonderful yard with plenty of toys and things to do, which makes it incredibly relaxing for families. To top it all off, the staff was incredibly nice, welcoming, and helpful throughout our visits. I highly, highly recommend checking out Medio Cafe if you are anywhere near the San Juan Islands. It was so good, and it's an absolute must-visit spot that we will definitely keep coming back to!

I'm genuinely surprised by the nearly 5-star rating based on our experience…read more We visited around 1:30 PM and were told that hot food was no longer being served. We then tried to order a salad, and were told that oh also that wasn't available. honestly felt like they just didn't feel like making anything. The only real option left was smoothies and açaí bowls. We ended up ordering three açaí bowls for the kids and a smoothie. At around $15 per bowl, the portions were shockingly small--only about a quarter full with five banana slice and three strawberries. one bowl was missing almond butter. The protein* smoothie couldn't be made properly because they were out of the protein powder. They offered to substitute collagen instead - not the same thing but ok. no discount. no acknowledgement. I understand that restaurants run out of items occasionally, but between most of the menu being unavailable, the outrageous price for the quality of the output, missing ingredients, and the complete lack of an apology or acknowledgment, this was a very disappointing experience.
