Hot Shot Coffee Shack is a gem in North Fork. I stopped in for a sandwich and coffee, and both were excellent--fresh ingredients, great flavor, and coffee that's clearly crafted with care. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere had a relaxed, local charm that makes you want to linger a little longer. Whether you're starting your morning or grabbing lunch, this is a spot that's absolutely worth visiting! read more

Hot Shot Coffee Shack - Hot Shot Sandwich - Cafes Near Me - North Fork, California

This is a great little locally owned place that is very customer service oriented. The food is very good and large portions. The prices are comparable to most cafe shops. All food is made to order, good fresh ingredients. The coffee and tea are fresh and the teas are very good with a large selection of flavors as well. If nearby stop in and see for self!! The owners work there and will make sure you get great service. It is a small place so can get busy at times but worth the wait!!! read more

Love this coffee shop. They always are coming up with new drinks and aren't afraid to test out unique syrups and flavors. They're also always coming up with ideas to get community involved and really keep north fork living. My favorite drinks are the lavender coffees wish I tried more of their food were a GF / low carb household but if you like sourdough theirs is amazing. read more

Sandwiches are small and overly priced. For the price they charge they should do better and include a drink. For a basic sandwich done at home would be better. read more

What a great place! We always call ahead of time on our way up to bass lake. The sandwiches are the best and the service is very friendly

They make a great sandwich here. The ladies are very nice. Nice spot to have a coffee in beautiful downtown North Fork.

Customer service is terrible and they let a big group of people that walked in after me order ahead of me even though I was standing there waiting to order the whole time. So I just walked out. Definitely will not come back. Stick to Zander's coffee in coarsegold. This place is terrible. They did not already order, they placed their order in front of me read more

Stopped in on a drive up to bass lake. What a great little place. Staff was friendly. The concept is cool. The coffee was good. Didn't try the food but it looked good. Would go back read more

My husband and I recently became part time locals, and tried this place for lunch yesterday. It is tiny but provides a good menu, lots of drink options and the best sandwiches. We tried the Wicked Tuna and Hot Shot. They were excellent. The place decorated with local art and photos. We will be back. read more

Unfortunately this cafe disappointed my expectations after looking at the Yelp ratings. I understand the circumstances were likely the reason for the service, however not everything could be blamed on that. We came in as a group of 8 thinking to get some small bites and coffee before we headed off to the lake. As soon as we walked in, the lady working behind the counter let us know that she could only make 4 more egg items. We were somewhat disappointed but we talked and worked out what we could get instead and who would be getting the items with eggs (breakfast burritos). We started our orders and ordered 2 egg items then suddenly she told us she is out of eggs...she mentioned at this point that the place across the street serves a full sit down breakfast if we were interested. I want to be compassionate to business owners at this time but I do feel like it's important to have enough stock to be able to serve their customers or if you're out of things then being honest about it (we did get the feeling that she didn't want to serve us). And I am taking into consideration that we were a large party and the service staff was by herself and that must have been stressful for her. The breakfast burrito that we did get was terrible; the eggs used are not fresh (powder/microwaved), the tortilla was barely warmed and cheese was just sprinkled in. The meats that we could eat were also not available which is why we had to settle with a egg and cheese burrito--I would not recommend. All the drinks we got in our party were really good which is why I give two stars to this business. read more

We just needed a place to go to the bathroom and ended up getting a blended coffee crunch. Try it, it'll change your life. Super clean bathroom. Friendliest staff ever. Very tasty drinks.

I think my husband has ordered every sandwich they have created. It is his favorite stop to pick up lunch either going to our cabin or going home. read more

Stopped in here for some coffee, burritos, and sandwiches for a day in the mountains. It's always a good sign when the owners behind the counter making your food. I had a bean crunch coffee which was fantastic. We also grabbed a couple of burritos and sandwiches all of which were excellent. There are not a lot of dining options up here in Bass lake. But this place is a gem and well worth a 10-minute drive for some great food and strong coffee. Highly recommend. read more

I've been dying to try this place out. Hands down delish! I ordered the Vegetarian Fire on Naan bread which comes with hummus, lettuce, red onions, tomato, sliced avocado, and a plethora of sliced Mozzarella cheese. The fresh Mozzarella alone is worth the sandwich price, however, I love spicy foods and I'm not too sure where the "Fire" in the name comes from, it was a bit deceiving for me thinking I would get a spicy veggie sandwich, nonetheless, it was fulfilling. I also ordered a large Iced mocha, which is, I believe a 24oz cup. All their coffee is made with Rare Earth Co. beans. Other things they have available for quick purchase/on the go/passing thru that I didn't order are chips, candy, soda, energy drinks, Helados La Tapatia, to name a few. Adriana, the barista is awesome, she will strike up great conversation with you all whilst running a constant flow of customers. This place is clean & super chill and they offer free WiFi, I will definitely be back and bring my friends here read more

This place is a hidden treasure located in the exact center of California. Without a doubt, the best tri-tip sandwich we ever had (served Saturdays) by far. They are generous on the meat. Absolutely Phenomenal. The staff and owners were incredibly friendly. Their priority was aimed at pleasing their customers. The coffee was customized to our liking. It is definitely worth the drive to enjoy a coffee and lunch not to mention the beautiful scenery. You will not regret it. We will definitely be visiting again. We highly recommend Hot Shot Coffee Shack to anyone. read more

A MUST STOP FOR LUNCH! Such a amazing sandwich shop! Everything was fresh and delicious and the portions were good size and prices were good for the quality of food. If you are not a big eater you can definitely share with someone. I had the Hotshot sandwich and it was a little spicy but soooooo good, the sliced jalapenos were a surprise because they weren't listed on menu but for me it was a very welcomed surprise because it was great. I would recommend this place for sure... had a iced blended cookie and cream with 4 espresso shots and it was good too!! If you stop here you won't be let down unless you're impatient because it does take a little bit to make fresh food so just relax and enjoy the simple life Haha . Also no A/C if that bugs you.

I was driving on my way to Bass Lake and there was a sign that said Bandit Town so I decided to be adventurous to stumble upon an community benefit there. The smell of meat was in the air and quite surprisingly I stumbled upon the tent where I met the owner of Hot Shots Art & Mary Ellen. They were actively involved in community events and the shop located nearby in North Fork. I decided to try their smoked tri-tip sandwhich. It was freshly smoked meat, just thr right amount of smoke flavor which I was not a fan of until today. It came on a freshly made bun from a local bakery acccompanied by fresh grilled onons and jalapenos. Portions were very generous! In talking with the owner's I found out this was one of many specialty sandwhiches at the brick and mortar located in North Fork. Oh! Let;s not forget the speicialty sauce they had blended primarily for them. They need to sell it cause it is awesome. I could never get out of them how they came up with it but the taste was amazing! I later visited the shop and purchased their own blend of coffee they had packaged and for sale. The next morning, I tried it and it was refined with a slight punch to the flavor but wen well with traditional breakfast. Thanks for the awesome experience and I hope this place trends upwards because their food and beverages are on trend in the little town of North Fork. Who would have expected to find culinary gold in a close yet remote location?? Not me, but you should go discover it for yourself! read more
