They had a decent amount of options from turnovers to cookies to focaccia. I ended up getting a cherry turnover. It's like not the best pastry I've ever had, but it def satisfied my sweet tooth.

I will be coming by here anytime I am near Boone, I wish I could give them more than 5 stars.

We stopped by Bohemia Coffee Shop while exploring downtown West Jefferson, and it was a great find…read more The shop is cute and inviting, right on the main strip, with a warm atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile. Even though there was a steady stream of customers, the staff kept the line moving quickly while still taking the time to chat with people and make everyone feel welcome. Our drinks came out fast, too. I ordered an iced mocha latte, and it was exceptional--easily one of the best I've had. My husband had a double shot of espresso and really enjoyed it as well. The quality of the coffee definitely stood out. Another thing we loved was the ambiance. They feature handmade items from local artists, have spaces where people can network and leave business cards, and the upbeat music added to the welcoming feel. There was plenty of indoor seating, and we enjoyed sitting by the window and people-watching for a while. Honestly, there wasn't anything we didn't enjoy. We'd definitely stop in again the next time we're in West Jefferson.

Both were refreshing and flavorful. Service was fast and accurate for a moderate client load and consistent stream of orders. Sidewalk seating available. Dogs welcome. The interior is spacious with plenteous and varied seating options: bar, table, nooks, and couches. The establishment is clean and there's congestion to the decor, but I can't say it's classically "bohemian". Nonetheless, it's pleasant, comfortable, and welcoming. I could tell care and attention were given to the ambiance. We would return and recommend you check it out.

Sweet Aromas, what happened?? My wife and I visited Sweet Aromas Friday morning (7-22-2011) to…read morerenew our love affair with their great food and staff after being estranged from West Jefferson for a little over three years. Our fond memories included getting a big hung from the owner when we would go in and she always stopped by our table to chat after we received our food. Things change I guess because I knew we were in trouble when we entered and as we approached the counter a 6 or 7 year old boy threw a paper airplane that hit me in the chest. We stood there for a while waiting to be seated all the while having to make small talk with the child. Getting seated took too long since there was only one other couple in the place at 10:00 in the morning. The kid rang the bell by the register and the lady that I remember from years ago being the owner's sister came up to seat us with a portable phone jammed in her ear. Things went downhill from that. I ordered the "Old Favorite" breakfast with coffee and home fries and my wife wanted the honey bun. The kid continued to bring toys up to our table and we nervously made small talk with him. Then as other people came in and sat he went to their tables and disturbed their train of thought as well. Don't get me wrong.....I have grandchildren his age that I adore but when I sit down to eat in a place where I pay for food it shouldn't be a facility that depends somewhat on the customers to entertain some employee's child. Secondly, my home fried potatoes were cold, and old. Horrible, didn't eat them. Still, the lady remained on the phone, never checked on us, and never brought my wife her bun. I sat and ate my food at my wife's insistence before the rest of it could get cold and she sat waiting, just waiting. The cook came out of the kitchen and I flagged him down and I asked him for my wife's order and he commented that "she" would bring it out while nodding towards the lady manager still yakking on the phone. It was clear that he never informed anyone that our order had not been filled. My wife asked to leave so we went up to pay and stood at the register for a while and no one came to help us. Finally I tapped the bell and "she" came out to check us out and then realized my wife had not gotten her honey bun. Her apology was that she had been tied up on the phone with her sister and her accountant. She did offer to bag the bun and send it with us at no charge. We declined. It is so sad that a memorable piece of the West Jefferson restaurant history has slipped so much into decline. What a warm, friendly, service oriented place Sweet Aromas used to be.....when we left the area three years ago Sweet Aromas was one of the establishments we hated most to leave. Now that we are back in the area, we won't be wasting time to go into a day care atmosphere restaurant that cannot complete a simple order. So sad.

They have a nice variety of flavors and they are baked fresh to order. The store is very a aesthetically pleasing. The decor and ambiance are beautiful. Service was also very friendly and helpful. The girl helped explain the different options and was patient while we debated all the amazing choices! I was unable to take any pictures of our cookies because my family and I devoured them the second the box hit the table! Hahaha. The cookies take about 15 minutes to be ready, so just be prepared to wait. Trust me, it's worth the wait!!

The cheesecake cookie may be one of my favorite things ever, chewy and spiced perfectly, their ferrero rocher one has deep chocolate flavor.

I also should add that ordering ahead will save you about 20 mins.

Like others have mentioned, the woman who answered was very rude and with an attitude. This was the conversation: "hi, is this the cupcrazed cafe in blowing rock?" "how can I help you" "what are your hours today?" "we're not open" "so are you guys permanently closed?" "We're not open" "okay, what time do you guys open?" "we're not open this weekend" "okay bye bye". For whatever reason, they don't want customers, and they don't want people to know when they're open. Wild if people think they can run a restaurant that way. You couldn't pay me to go there now
