We were there a bit before closing, but they still made us a fantastic dinner. Cashier was incredibly friendly and informative. - Chicken Pesto Panini: nice mix of flavors. Well prepared chicken breast. Not overly oily like some pesto / paninis can be. The vinaigrette dip brings it over the top. - French dip: tender and flavorful meat served on a lightly crispy bread that was warm and soft inside. The flavor was so complex and good that you did not need the au jus sauce - though that was good also. - Baked beans have a nice kick to them. Recommend topping with feta cheese. Plenty of parking. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Room off the side for the kids to play / burn some energy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Quaint interior. Love the decor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Honestly this was one of the best sandwiches I've had in a long time. I ordered The Veggie, which is typically a crepe, but they were sweet enough to let me substitute the crepe for bread. And that bread.....soooo freaking delicious. The Vanilla Frappuccino was also very good! The staff were very kind and attentive I'd definitely stop here again for a quick bite when I came back to hike Yosemite. Oh and if it's not too tmi.. the bathroom experience was awesome. read more

10/10! Went up to ride the sugar pine railroad and stoped at this gem on the way home. It was so hard to choose just one thing off the menu. Everything sounded amazing. I went with the Hot Hawaiian Burger with the potato salad and it did not disappoint! The jalapeños in the burger had the perfect kick. My husband kept it simple with the chicken and cheese quesadilla. It was amazing! Perfectly seasoned chicken. 4 cheese blend. Did not need any dipping sauce or extras. Heads up the hours listed are not correct: They are open 12-8:30pm not 10:30am. read more

Sunday brunch is a must try - Chef Frankie made us breakfast plates and biscuits and gravy (biscuits were flaky and yummy), always lots of flavor. They also offer sweet & savory crepes.We keep coming back and are never disappointed. Hot coffee and a game of chess while we waited for our food (all freshly made & worth the wait). They have hand crafted iced & hot lattes that will make coffee lovers keep coming back. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love this charming, little cafe![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Frank and Rhiannon's passion for great food is unmistakable as the new owners of Harvest Garden. This was our first visit, and we ordered the hummus and chicken gyro--an absolute explosion of flavor. Honestly, I didn't expect to find food this vibrant in Coarsegold. Every bite was fantastic. We even caught ourselves watching other dishes come out, already planning what to try next. The burger and French dip both looked incredible and are definitely on our list for the next visit. Beyond the food, the owners take the time to connect with their guests, which adds to the welcoming, small-town charm. Highly recommend stopping in--you won't leave disappointed. read more

Love this little restaurant so much. The owners are the sweetest, kindest people. We love stopping by for the burgers and Greek Gyros.

We went there on a Friday afternoon around 3ish. We were told to sit down and they would be with us shortly. There were 2 other customers there at the time. After 10 minutes of being ignored we chose to get up and leave. It could have been racial, or it could be that they can't handle more than 2 customers at a time. Either way it's not good. read more

Great Food!!! This place switched owners a few months ago, I wasn't overly impressed the first time. These new owners however, have a new menu and tonight I tried it for the first time since switching owners. I ordered a Goat Burger: Mixed Greens were fresh, Applewood smoked bacon added that crunchy lightly salted taste and the raspberry jalapeño jam sent it over the edge. The pita chips and garlic sauce as a side was great. I ordered a cup of chicken and dumplings soup that took me back to my childhood. Hot soup on a cold day..... This place is worth it. You are missing out if you don't stop by for a lunch or a "get out of making dinner" meal!! read more

We live out of the area but work up here 2x a month and have been curious about this cute little country cafe. Finally made the time to stop in and so happy we did. It will definitely be a go to spot when we come back through. We enjoyed the French Dip and although there are no complaints, we can't wait to try the gyro and acclaimed burger. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience was so fun but the new owners made it better as they took the time to welcome you.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If in the area or passing through, make the time to stop by. read more

Frank is a fantastic cook and warm people-person. His wife, when taking our order, asked if we wanted water (we said yes) then unexpectedly brought us 5 bottles and added $10 to our $92 bill. When questioned she said they were having "plumbing issues". Suggestion: take responsibility, provide complimentary water until you fix the plumbing. Otherwise: food is excellent and homey [[HIGHLIGHT]]atmosphere, like at a friends house.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Super cute place only a mile off the 41. We stopped here on our way home from Yosemite NP. They had some games on the table to play while you waited for your food. The service was quick and everyone was very friendly. Everything was homemade, including their chips. I had a Java chip Frappuccino, which was delicious! I also greatly enjoyed the chicken bacon ranch panini. Definitely recommend! read more

Athena and her husband own this fantastic little shop. It's been a lovely addition to the small community. The food is oh so yummy. Fun seating and always a great time to eat in. Service is quick and she's so incredibly kind. We always say that she reminds us of Lorelei Gilmore. Such a sweet, fun, spunky individual! read more

Five stars! If you are on a roadtrip to Yosemite you should 100% stop here for a quick lunch. Athena was very welcoming and kind, and the food was made very quickly. I ordered the beef gyros and it was very tasty. Their house garlic sauce was delicious too! We also ordered a mango peach smoothie to share and it was so delicious and refreshing. I will definitely be coming back if I'm passing by! The inside of the restaurant was very cute and cozy too, and there's a little thrift shop attached to it. read more

Very comfortable little coffee shop with excellent healthy food and friendly people, as long as you're comfortable with a little wait! Harvest Garden is brand new and seems to be going through some small growing pains but I can absolutely see the potential here. There is a very homey coffee shop ambience with warm wood and kitschy art decorations around. The mismatched furniture gives the place character, with autographed guitars hanging and a small thrift store in the corner! The food is very healthy and fresh tasting, we really wanted to try a burger but they were out of ground beef. The breakfast burritos were all very good, and my quesadilla while somewhat unconventional was also fresh and good, the steak very flavorful. We had some coffee while we waited, and my Americano was smooth and flavorful, rarely do I drink coffee black but I drank this one black! We had a couple of Mochas which were also excellent with the perfect amount of sweetness. All in all we will definitely be coming back, the constructive criticism I would direct at the owner is there really needs to be salt on the tables, there should also be a coffee station for mixing cream and sweetener/sugar yourself, maybe in the corner with the water. Some wait help would be welcome as well but the tight quarters make this difficult. Looking forward to coming back! read more

Athena! We were on our way to Yosemite and made a quick pit stop for a bite and we couldn't be happier that we did. From the moment we walked in, the place radiated positivity. Athena greeted us, sat us, took her time walking us through the menu, and made us feel right at home. Rich, who took our order, brought a fun energy and a great sense of humor to the experience! We tried the Peach Mango smoothie, which was refreshing and perfectly balanced and the Chicken Nachos, which were different and absolutely delicious. But beyond the great food, it was the incredible service and genuine interaction that truly stood out. After finding out it was my birthday, Athena insisted on giving me a gift before we left. It was such a thoughtful surprise and the perfect start to my birthday weekend. Huge thanks to Athena and Rich for turning a simple stop into a memorable moment! read more

We've eaten here several times now, and this place is absolutely wonderful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]What makes it even more memorable is the cozy, home-like décor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It feels as if you're sitting in someone's living room or kitchen, chatting with the person who owns the place--and in a way, you are.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The owners, Frankie and Riannen, along with their daughter Sydney, run the café together. The girls serve, and Dad cooks. It's friendly, warm, and personal. The food is great, the atmosphere is inviting, and the whole experience feels like discovering a true little gem. Honestly, part of me doesn't even want to write this review because I don't want long lines or to need reservations the next time I come. But they deserve the praise. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They took over this spot, completely cleaned it up, remodeled it, and turned it into a charming, comfortable place to enjoy a meal, grab a coffee, or warm up with a bowl of soup on a cold day.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Their prices are fair and reasonable--they're not trying to overcharge anyone. Great atmosphere, great food, great prices, and great owners. I highly recommend this place. read more

This wonderful little place and their proprietors are delightful. Though they have not yet started to serve food ,I have been in there for smoothies and coffee. It is an extremely pleasing and homey feel and their menu items range from hummus to tacos and wonderful sounding sandwiches nachos and a lot more. They are here formerly from the Monterey Peninsula. One of the owners formerly w CBS had a thriving business there for many years. The owners Athena and Richard are very welcoming and gracious, and you can tell this is going to be totally hands-on. She has projected the food to start being served. Friday March 30. I have high hopes and will be reporting back to you with food pics and updates. Boy oh boy, does this area need a place like this ! read more

We were driving back from camping in yosemite and decided to stop at a random cafe and it was so worth it! the aesthetics were sooo cute, food was great, and service was quick and personal! The cafe itself seems to be part thrift store and it was decorated in this mismatched, cute, cozy way. We honestly had fun spotting everything used as decoration (signed guitars, stuffed animals, fun signs, etc) We ordered an Iced Latte, an Iced Mocha, an Artichoke Chicken Wrap, and a Vegetarian Quesadilla. The service was fast and the presentation of the food was so cute! The food itself was delicious, and it was nice to have vegetarian options available. If I drive through this area again I'll be sure to stop by :) read more
