Delicious. All the candies I have tried have been a wonderful quality and satiated my need for smooth lovely chocolate. There was plenty of chocolate stocked and I'll be watching for more amazing things once the business has been there a bit. Can't wait to see this space grow. Hubby and I picked out a lot to take home since we live 45 minutes away. We also talked to Chef Joyner about cocoa beans and learned something new today about the process of making chocolate! Cool!

While there's all kinds of dandy baked goods you can take home, Arturo's is a great stop for an excellent breakfast that is also very reasonably priced. Don't expect haute cuisine here - it's quaint and small, down home and rustic with friendly, welcoming service. All perfect in its own way. My wife and her friend both had breakfast taco's that were filled with a bountiful array of vegetables, eggs and cheese, accompanied by a tangy green salsa. My buddy and I both had a breakfast special - house-made hash browns (mine were as ordered perfect extra-crispy) topped with onion, house made bacon, cheese and eggs. Everything was perfect, but perhaps the highlight of our brunch was the waffle that we shared - absolute perfection! Crispy on the outside, buttery and soft on the inside. It was perhaps the best waffle that I've had in 20 years and when I go back to visit our friends in Michigan City, I'll be back to Arturo's for that waffle!

The Coffee Has Potential. The Attitude Does Not…read more Let me set the scene: I walked in happy, wallet open, ready to support local. Bought a latte and three greeting cards. Three. GREETING. CARDS. You know, the things you buy when you care about people? The irony was lost on whoever was behind the counter. No "thank you." No smile. Just a full serving of stanky attitude with a side of complete indifference -- and I didn't even order that. They've got 444 on the door. Angel numbers. Protection energy. Good vibes literally bolted to the building. And somehow none of it made it past the front entrance. I've given this place multiple chances because I believe in supporting local businesses. This is me believing in something for the last time. To the owner: I genuinely hope you're not the person I keep encountering behind the register. If you are -- bless your heart. If you're not -- you may want to pop in unannounced one day. Bring a secret shopper. Bring a therapist. Bring snacks. Whatever it takes. The latte was fine. The cards were cute. The experience? Starbucks doesn't have angel numbers on the door, but at least they say thank you. I'm out. Peace.

Came here for the first time yesterday while my friend and I were in New Buffalo celebrating her…read morebirthday and enjoying everything the area had to offer. Unfortunately, from the moment we walked in and looked at the menu, the woman with purple hair at the counter greeted us with extremely unpleasant energy. She rushed us through our entire order, wasn't friendly or welcoming, and was extremely difficult to connect with. What stood out to me most was that after our interaction, I noticed her greeting other customers who didn't look like us with a noticeably warmer energy. We ordered two sandwiches, two drinks, and two pastries, spending almost $40, yet the experience lacked any real sense of kindness, consideration, or basic human decency. Because I was being rushed, I actually had to get back in line a second time to purchase something I had missed during our initial order. We were especially disappointed because this was supposed to be a nice experience while celebrating my friend's birthday. We were grateful to see vegan options on the menu, and the space itself is beautiful, but unfortunately, it felt like the energy and level of hospitality inside depended on the color of your skin. That experience left a lasting impression, and sadly, we won't be returning.
