LOVE this place. Lucky for us this was around the corner of our Airbnb. We came here twice during our visit. They have unique drinks which were so good! I got the blueberry one and I still to this day think about it. They make all their syrups in house. Also really good paninis! We got the Gouda one and the cheese was so melty and delicious. You order up at the front and they call your name for you to come get the order. It is a very chill place and truly is a vibe. read more

Awesome spot! We loved it--perfect stop before the airport to grab coffee and breakfast. 10/10, would definitely come back! . . read more

Issa Vibe has fantastic atmosphere that welcomes you the moment you walk in. It's kind of tropical, with little nooks for seating. They offer parties, coffee and a variety of lunch options. We had sandwiches that were delicious! Service was a little awkward but nothing that would prevent me from returning. The double parking lot was a bonus. read more

We arrived on a Saturday morning, it was packed and had to wait about 30 minutes for our food. The service was exceptional though. The cashier was explaining to everyone in line that they were busy and then following up and checking in with others. We ordered the chorizo panini and a peach tea to share. The panini had tons of flavor and was piping hot when it came out. Definitely recommend. Although the restaurant was crowded and busy, it was very cute instead and we were able to get a seat for our group of 6. read more

We got the lavender latte and lavender Matcha latte and they were really good. We loved the environment and friendly service.

Issa vibe indeed. If you care about aesthetics/the instagram-ability of a place, this place gets top marks. I loved all the plants and array of seating options. If you care about fun drinks, then this is as good as it gets in New Buffalo. I loved the variety of options, and I really loved my seasonal "chaider" that was generous with the cinnamon. I'm knocking off a star for food. I split a vegan tex-mex panini, and it was hard to eat with the black bean salsa spilling out with each bite...and was that a proper salsa, or just black beans and corn thrown onto the panini? Also, the limited side options are just "bleh" with just chips and a side salad. I will 100% return for vibes and bevies, but I'll save my appetite for elsewhere. read more

I think it's basically summed up all in the name. This is a really cute place to grab a bite to eat. You really get the fun, beach town vibes from the aesthetic. They've done an amazing job creating a beautiful space to have lunch. The drinks are fun, think coffee iced teas and lemonades. We ordered a sandwich with a side salad which was ample to share. If you like places like Panera (think salads, paninis) you will love this. The panini was ample size to share and super loaded up!!! The side salad was fresh and very tasty. Definitely check out if you are visiting!!! read more

Fantastic breakfast paninis and coffee. Little on the expensive side but in a touristy town you kinda expect that. Parking isn't great during the busy season but man that chorizo and egg panini is to die for. Pistachio latte and drip coffee both 5/5 stars. Favorite coffee spot in New Buffalo area. read more

Great seating and tropical "vibe" with cushion seats and nooks to sit with some privacy. This is a counter order restaurant. The service was good and staff kind. Most of the food was great except they did mix up our order with someone else's. Otherwise the muffins, drinks and sandwiches were really good. Fun positive cafe great sit down spot. No outdoor seating but very good sunlight. read more

ISSA GOOD COFFEE! Issa Vibe is a super cute brunch and coffee spot located two blocks off the main road in New Buffalo. And when I say "Good Coffee" I mean "GOOOOOODD coffee. Like this is not your boring Starbucks cup of Joe. This is artisan crafted coffee. I went several time during our stay and everything I tried was great! The shop is SUPER cute and modern with very hipster, boho, flowery, garden vibes. The food was also pretty good - it's normal coffee shop fare like pastries, salads and paninis. My one and only complaint was that service could have been better. Maybe it was the summertime rush/crowds but the baristas and counter staff always seemed short and several times I waited for a while before even being acknowledged. Better service would make this a 5-STAR establishment for sure! Stop in and enjoy the best coffee in New Buffalo! read more

Had a Saturday morning coffee and breakfast sandwich at Issa Vibe and was sooo good. I had a Blueberry Latte (house made syrup with Michigan blueberries and not too sweet) and I split a Pesto & Egg Panini with my cousin. We also took some muffins to go (GF Lemon Blueberry, Raspberry and Pistachio) and all were just as delicious. Jeremy the owner was extremely friendly and Issa Vibe definitely lives up to its name. read more

This is the best place ever!! Great gluten free and dairy free options. I was visiting New Buffalo and came here both days for my meals because I knew it would be safe for my food allergies. The vegan Italian panini with gluten free bread blew my mind, the salad was so fresh and delicious, and I was so pleasantly surprised to find vegan and gluten free muffins at the counter! Everyone was so kind, welcoming, and willing to answer any questions. The seating area had such a fun bohemian vibe. I loved everything about this place and hope to see more restaurants like this!! 12/10 highly recommend! read more

I really like the vegetable soup here, nice atmosphere. I also ordered a caprese salad. It was fine but I thought it was odd that it came with what tasted like ranch dressing along with the pesto and a small amount of thick balsamic glaze. I am not a panini person but I would come back for some other stuff. I did not like having to pay over the phone when placing a takeout order though. I would rather do online ordering and not have to talk to anyone if they are really worried about it. read more

My friends and I were in town during our Easter Break from Notre Dame, and we came here to grub and study. Extremely cozy with good drinks/food and incredibly nice staff. I ordered a chocolate muffin with a lavender matcha latte, and it was one of the best matcha lattes I've ever had (high praise since I've been to every matcha cafe in orange county, california). After 1.5 hours of doing some work, the owner offered us free drinks on the house, which we were all pleasantly surprised about. Definitely worth the visit! read more

Wow! An amazing vacation find. Our group went once for lunch and again for breakfast. The teas and coffees were perfect. The food is flavorful and fresh. It's a small place and everything is made fresh, so just be patient because it takes a while to prepare. Very worth the wait. If we're back in New Buffalo I'm definitely going again! read more

Issa Vibe Cafe - Breakfast! - Salad Near Me - New Buffalo, Michigan

When you walk into the cafe, you immediately feel its welcoming energy. They have helpful signs/instructions for first timers like us, and I appreciate that they tell you the wait time upfront to manage expectations. It is casual dining, but it's NOT fast! So be aware. My husband and I each got a salad, which were large portions so you likely score some leftovers. The ingredients are fresh and dressings are delicious, especially the balsamic. I got a lavender lemonade, which was refreshing and not overly sweet. This was the perfect precursor to our beach excursion, as we didn't want to have heavy food sitting in our bellies. Will definitely return the next time we visit the area! read more

Went in a few weeks ago and HOW CUTE!! The decor is absolutely to die for and the menu is pretty big. The guy working the counter was great but it was odd to me that you pick up the menus at the door and then just walk up to the line but I'm sure it's efficient when it's busy! I ordered a blueberry latte with dark mocha and it came out with white mocha after the guy specifically asked which. read more

Always on the lookout for great coffee in new cities, and this place delivered!

This place was so fun. My wife and I went for a light lunch and to play some games and chill. Very fun, cozy and modern ambiance. Lots of plants and natural light. Great coffee. Seems like that brew Onyx which instantly made me a fan. I had their cold brew and it was good and got me very caffeinated, haha. Wife got a salad and she loved it! read more

So so adorable! If I lived nearby I would be a frequent customer. Coffee was good, their sandwiches were delicious, the chocolate muffin was rich and satisfying. The decor was so warm and inviting and so were the people. There's an area with egg chairs and a bench. Then there's an enclosed patio space that could be a quiet reading room. We'll done, owners! Love it. read more

I was with a group of (7) who stopped by Issa Vibe Cafe on a Saturday morning. The inside is extremely cute with fun patterns, bright colors, plants everywhere, and tons of seating. Walking in the line was long but staff hustled to keep things moving! After ordering, drinks took about 5-8 minutes and food about 15 minutes. The staff did graciously tell us upon ordering that food was going to take a little longer. Our group got a variety of coffees and teas. I got the Rose and Honey Latte which was delicious! I tried a few others as well as some bites of food and loved everything! Our group talked about how good everything was the rest of the weekend! Highly recommend this spot to anyone in the New Buffalo area! read more

Issa Vibe lives up to their name! The interior is totally chill, with a warm spacious decor featuring both traditional tables as well as comfy couches and even a sun room. The service was super friendly and helpful with menu questions from these first-timers. And the food was absolutely delicious!!! The food menu is not huge and I wish they had some fresh juices on the drink menu, but that's a minor gripe. They have some awesome looking coffee drinks but we had already had coffee prior to our arrival but we won't make that mistake again, as everything being crafted by the barista looked amazing. They do need a more prominent sign on the exterior, at least something facing west, as we totally passed the place on arrival when driving up 12 from the east. Really loving this place and will be back soon! read more

Jeremy the owner was beyond friendly! The egg pesto panini was delicious as was the coffee. My cousin got a blueberry latte (homemade syrup) which was fabulous. The decor is adorable. Can't wait to go back for lunch. I'm a full-time local and this was a nice surprise since I just discovered it. (Bought three muffins.. yum, yum and yum). read more

Had a really great experience with the owner. He asked how I liked my drink and I explained that I tried something new and I didn't love it based on personal preference. He made sure to let me know that it was ok and that he would make me a new one. He made really good suggestions based on what I told him I liked and gave me a new drink quickly. 10/10 customer service and matcha! :) read more

Coolest coffee shop I've ever been in. Played Rufus, odesza, Troyboi while I was inside. Soooo boho, I wish my house looked like this coffee shop!!
