I stopped by The Runway Cafe with two friends as our first stop before spending the day at Sequoia…read moreNational Park. We visited on a Saturday morning and had to wait outside for about 10 minutes before a table opened up, which honestly made sense once we saw how busy the place was. The food ended up being exactly what I wanted before a long day of hiking. I ordered the Breakfast Bowl, which came with a half order of biscuits and gravy, one egg, and two sausage links. The portion was perfect for me since I don't like a huge breakfast, but it was still really filling and tasted great. The service was excellent. Our server was super kind and friendly to me and my friends, and the whole experience felt very welcoming. It had that small-town breakfast spot vibe where it feels like all the locals come to start their day, and even as visitors we felt right at home. The ambiance really adds to the charm. The dining area is a medium-sized room packed with as many tables and chairs as it can fit, and every seat was filled. It felt lively in the best way and showed how popular the place is. The restaurant is also located at a small airport, which makes the setting outside pretty cool and unique. Overall, the food and atmosphere were perfect for a breakfast stop. That one meal kept me fueled through our visit to Sequoia including an 8-mile hike, which honestly surprised me. I will definitely come back if I'm ever in the area again.

Onion rings are fresh and the sweet taste linger within your mouth, but it's a bit greasy. Service: the staff is sweet and nice. One thing bothers us is that he check is handwritten and when we pay with credit card the amount didn't add up. They didn't mention any credit card fees which is weird. Ambiance: we searched online and found this place and the moment we arrived we understood why it's called "The Runway" as it is literally located next to an airplane runway and the interiors are amazing! Very detailed decor including the lights!

The coffee was perfectly coffee flavor without it being overly sugary that you usually typically get nowadays at coffee chains. Bagel was delicious and stuffed!!!

I've definitely been coming here since the beginning, thanks to my mom! It's stood out from the very beginning & I love how much they have expanded. There's something for everyone on their men. I think they have some of the best matcha's around (but if you drink your matcha with LOTS of sweetener.. you probably won't like a real matcha from here) -- I say this bc people complain that it taste like GRASS... and well, it damn near is (green tea leaves) lol -- all jokes aside, their drinks and food are all hand crafted and all made and / or roasted in house! I have not once ever had a complaint about this place. I love the ambience inside and out. Plenty of spaces to work from (one of my fav spots) Service is always ask expected for hand crafted drinks and food! The workers are always very knowledgeable about their menu items & products, love that! Their pop tarts... if you can get them when they have them.. TRY THEM OUT!! Actually, all their pastry's and breakfast items are delicious! (I just always forget to take pictures) haha I will always come here for food/homemade pastries , a drink or to work!

Great coffee. Always busy. Love the burrito. Very classic coffee shop…read more It's always a hit.

One of my favorite chocolate lattes ever came from here…read more It had a light mouthfeel and wasn't too sweet, a well-balanced latte that was neither bitter nor too sweet. Super aromatic and tasted even better since you can see them pulling the espresso shot. My friend's lavender latte was delicious. First floral note giving away to an excellent latte. They know their stuff here. We loved the staff here. Very friendly and helpful, I loved complimenting the baristas on their craft and passing along the cheerfulness from the cashier who was very welcoming. They were very methodical and consistent with each drink, it seems. The shop was cute, with ample parking. The patio was busy-ish with people flocking in and out to pick up their orders once their name was called. I liked the combination of rustic and modern decorations, making for AN EXCELLENT stop before heading in or out of Yosemite. This coffee is worth going out of the way for since you will be leaving very happy after pleasant interactions and a deliiiiiicious coffee. 10/10!

I visited Cloud Rest Coffee and had a mixed experience. I tried the vanilla latte and cappuccino,…read moreand both were a bit disappointing for my taste. They were too sweet, and the coffee flavor felt very light -- almost lost behind the milk and syrup. If you enjoy sweeter, milder drinks, this place might work for you. But if you're looking for a stronger, more noticeable coffee taste, it may not be the best choice. Overall, it's a nice spot, but the coffee itself didn't really stand out to me.

My recent visit I had the mango box cake and strawberry box cake and they both tasted amazing! My only tiny problem is the names of the box cakes, for mango and strawberry I was expecting a filling or just the flavor incorporated more into the pastry, not just a slice of the fruit on top, besides the small cube of the fruit on top, both cakes tasted exactly the same. However, I really could not let that over look the fact that the pastry itself was very nice, probably one of the softest sponge cakes I've ever had balanced well with the whipped cream! The service was also very fast and nice!

My wife and I are big hikers so it was nice to have something light and refreshing. Coffee hit the spot. They had merch and of course we bought some a T-shirt and tank top. We visited quite a few times while we were there. Highly recommend if you're in the area!

I wish they had longer hours. That's the only complaint…read more I've been a couple times and it was exceptional both times. The potatoes were amazing, the biscuits were great, and the gravy was so good! There's a small indoor seating area that feels like a modern diner and they have plenty of tables under the pergola outside, where there's vines, birds, and flowers, which feels very relaxing.

The…read moreplace was about 80% occupied, which says a lot for that time of day, but it still felt chill and relaxed. The interior is modernized (not overdone), clean, and welcoming, with a nice quote on the wall that adds character. I ordered the breakfast burrito ($11). It's simple but very well seasoned (scrambled eggs, potatoes, and cheddar cheese). No meat, which I was craving, but the herbs and spices definitely carry the flavor. Not sure what they use, but it's tasty. Portion-wise, it's a solid medium-to-large burrito and comes split in half, so it could easily be shared. I've seen bigger burritos elsewhere, but this one is filling enough. That said, $11 feels a bit pricey for something so simple. I totally understand inflation, but I think adding a protein option like bacon, ham, or sausage would really elevate it and make the price feel more justified. Service was quick; about five minutes total and the cashier was very friendly. I mentioned it was my first time there and that I'm part of Yelp Elite. I kind of wish there had been a bit more engagement at that point, like suggesting a popular item or checking with the manager about anything for Yelpers. Not a dealbreaker at all, just a missed opportunity to go the extra mile. Overall, good food, chill environment, friendly service, and efficient turnaround.

Up front: this is not a review of the food…read more My father, whose grandparents were Swedish Immigrants to New York, loves nothing more than making Swedish pancakes on Christmas. So, when we were walking down the street and I saw an 'I Love Swedish Pancakes' shirt, I knew I had to pick one up for him. When I walked in, it appeared that there was only one woman working the whole shop. As it was an early Friday morning, it seemed like it was manageable. She smiled and asked if she could help and when I mentioned the shirt, she immediately pointed over to a rack. I looked through and when I couldn't find my dad's size, I walked over & saw her manning the kitchen. I asked if by any chance they had any other sides in the back and she smiled & right away walked over to see what she could find. She did find the size I needed and I happily bought it. We had some small talk about why I wanted the shirt and it was just an overall lovely experience. Honestly, I wish we hadn't just eaten because I would've loved to try some of the pastries and food the offered. I guess I've got something to look forward to next time we're in the area.

This visit introduced a whole new level of strangeness: The employees not knowing what they serve. 1 out of 2 employees being caught unaware is acceptable, but both?! ¡Que! I was simply going to test the waters by ordering something basic, but had to ask what their Craft coffees were. The cashier wasn't sure what I asked, looked up at the menu, and we had to point to the second board for her to understand what the words were coming out of our mouth. She the. Asked the only other employee beside her, who follows up with (insert generic answer here). Actually, you know what? I'm going to tell you. He said, "it's our craft drinks, we make it special here." What's special about it you ask? I know that one of their 'special' drinks, the coconut blonde, was EXACTLY the bland drink I've ordered here before, which lacks every essence of the word special. We got an iced vanilla oatmilk latte, thought it was good, and wondered why, in our 3 hour visit to explore Hanford, that One Eleven was the ONLY bad experience.

Bee's Bakery Cafe is hands down one of the best breakfast spots around! I ordered the Sweet Heat…read moreBreakfast Burrito, and it was absolutely incredible. It was packed with fresh ingredients, perfectly seasoned, and had just the right amount of kick. The homemade salsa paired perfectly with it and took the flavor to another level. I also tried the steak, eggs, biscuit, and potatoes, and everything was cooked to perfection. The steak was tender and flavorful, the eggs were spot on, the biscuit was fresh and buttery, and the potatoes were crispy and delicious. The service was friendly, fast, and welcoming, and the atmosphere made you feel right at home. It's clear they take pride in serving high-quality food and providing excellent customer service. If you're looking for an outstanding breakfast with generous portions and amazing flavor, Bee's Bakery Cafe is a must-visit. I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

Perfectly fried chicken; just the right amount of tenderness, moistness with a well seasoned crust. Great on it's own. Elevated by the waffle, butter and syrup! The delicate layer of crunch on the waffle is inviting. Once you bite into it then you discover the fluffy goodness with a hint of cinnamon & vanilla inside. Great all by itself. Elevated with butter, syrup and chicken! Plus I went home with a jar of melon honey, yum! This honey has a very mellow, subtle taste. Not overpowering, perfect in tea. Service is always friendly and speedy. Just love the interior decor, with all the sewing machines and eclectic items.
