The food, however, was a bit underwhelming. I ordered a croissant with egg and cheese--the croissant itself was decent, but the eggs were were microwaved. It was also on the smaller side for $6, which didn't quite match the price. Overall, I'd definitely come back for the coffee and atmosphere, but would probably skip the food next time.

While it is easy enough to find, let GPS take you there as you need to work around a one-way street…read moreto a smaller side street. There is a sign on the front of the building. The restaurant shares space in the building with a package shipping store and they have signs allocating parking for each business. The restaurant does have parking adjacent to the building in front as well as additional parking around the side. There was no specific handicapped space but there is a ramp in the front to the entrance door. Be aware the front door is for entering and the side door for exit only. If you park on the side you will need to walk around to the front to enter. The cashier is on the side near the exit door so the flow through the restaurant is pretty controlled. Also, there is a step down as you exit from the side door so be aware. There is a small waiting area as you walk in. We were greeted as soon as we entered and only waited a couple minutes for a table. All seating is tables and they are spaced well so you do not feel crowded. While the menu is typical for a diner, they also have daily specials written on chalkboards in a couple places around the walls. One interesting thing to note is the menu included not only the "regular" price, but also the discounted cash price. We placed out drink order and then a few minutes later placed the food order. The food did take about 25 minutes to arrive but the coffee never stopped flowing while we were waiting, and the background noise was low so conversation was easy. Even though the dining area was full our servers were very attentive. The eggs, sausage, and biscuits and gravy were exceptional. The eggs were cooked as ordered, the hand-patted sausage was fresh and had a nice crispy outside without being dry inside. The biscuits are homemade and the sausage gravy had noticeable sausage chunks. I did add pepper, but that is a personal preference. The western omelet had all the ingredients folded into the cooked eggs. The ingredients all had a slight char from the grill which really elevated the flavor. The hash browns were typical, nothing special but cooked perfectly. The biscuit holds up to butter and jelly very well. This was an outstanding breakfast. The servers are efficient, the food is wonderful, and the overall experience was refreshing. This is a must stop whenever you are in the area.

Cherokee/Bryson City area has been my little vacation spot for the last decade of my life (I grew…read moreup coming to this area in the summers to tube). I've been coming to Qualla Java Cafe since probably 2016. I can honestly say after 10 years, I've never had a bad drink here. They have a bunch of drinks - all with pretty fun names. Again, I've never had a bad drink here so it's fun to just randomly pick one. The service is always really fast and I'm never really in their long. Sorry if my review isn't better - coffee shops are kind of hard for me to review because coffee doesn't really look good in picture form. Just drink it!

I've had their chai tea before and they were really good but I opted for an orange hibiscus lemonade. It wasn't too sweet and was very refreshing. They offer a variety of non-dairy milk alternatives too. There are some bakery items but I didn't see anything labeled gluten-free. They have restrooms available for customers in the back and many different seating areas. There is also a patio outside that overlooks a creek where you can sit as well.

I got it hot, because of the cool mornings here in the valley. It paired great with the Orange cranberry Scone! Of course I got it warmed! It was so moist and yummy, no butter needed there! I talked to the owners daughter and she told me the bakers arrive at 3:00-4:00 am so everything is fresh each day! My friend got a breakfast sandwich with bacon, egg, cheese on a fresh made bagel! There was a chipotle aioli on the sandwich that made it over the top! I had to have a bite, just to tell everyone about it! Shhh! I might have snuck an extra bite! So SO YUMMY! The decor in the shop is so coffee chic.. loved it! Super comfy chairs and tables if you need to work. Outside plenty of tables and comfy arm chairs. They even have a fire pit for those chilly mountain days! Don't want to leave the kids out? No worries! They have a play ground! They even have a little stage area... I will be watching for some live eclectic coffee house music... hoping that will be soon!Please do not miss Morning Fog Coffee and Eats! It's a great place to treat yourself and your tummy!
