I'm a savory breakfast person and there weren't many savory choices here. I had something like a…read morejalapeño cheese scone. To be honest, it could and would taste better if it was served warm aka microwaved for 20 seconds. The flavor of this savory scone was decent. Texture wise, it was dense and somewhat dry. Because it was served cold, after the fifth bite, I had a nostalgic déjà vu feeling, I was back in my fifth grade and sitting in math class after PE, where the classroom was full of a bunch of boys' sweat and smell That's how a cold savory cheese scone tastes and smells to me. So if you're ordering it, perhaps ask the staff if they can warm it up for you.

It's still good but I think it missing some of the quality of yester year but is more Instagram worthy. Bring back the old cinnamon rolls with raisins, almonds, and tightly woven cinnamon goodness. Almond butter horn was the best I had last time. Service is great and people are friendly. Rated 4 stars because I don't want to be a downer for this local business but think there's room for improvement.

This ice cream is SO good. They only let us have 3 samples, but every flavor I tried was fantastic…read more I ended up getting the mint cookies and cream, but also loved the oatmeal cookie. The texture of the ice cream is absolutely perfect - creamy, thick, and stretchy. Must try!!

This little place is a hidden gem which should not be missed. While visiting on a weekend, we heard…read moreabout this place from a local. It is a little stand facing the street, which looks underwhelming at first glance. BUT, they offer delicious coffee and delicious breakfast sandwiches and fast friendly service for a reasonable price. Don't skip on the spicy breakfast sauce. I don't typically like spicy sauces especially on breakfast food but it is SO good. We make it a rule not to go to the same places when on vacation so we can try new places but we broke it here. We went back both mornings because the sandwiches were so good. The only downside is there is no place to really sit and eat outside so you would need to take your food to go and sit in your car, go back to hotel or air bnb, unless it is nice out and you can find a bench somewhere. Overall, this place was a hit and I suggest you try it if ever in Friday Harbor.

Yummy breakfast sandwich. Get it on ciabatta! It was delicious. Good service too. Would come againread more

Larissa's desserts were the sleeper hit of our wedding! My Husband and I got married at Roche…read moreHarbor, so the food expectations are high. However, the wedding cake and dessert bar she provided were the favorite that had everyone coming back for more! Larissa only took over By Felicitations this year, but we appreciated that she clearly has extensive baking experience. We connected with her online and visited her shop for a cake tasting, and were were highly impressed that see not only had the flavors we requested, but several others she suggested based on our requests that ended up being our favorites. She even made up a fresh mini-cake on the spot combining our favorite flavors (almond cake, raspberry compote, and lemon frosting). And the cake we got on our wedding day tasted every bit as excellent as the samples she prepared. She also realized the appearance of the cake just as we hoped, matching swirling ocean colors with a geode motif made of crystallized sugar. During the cocktail hour our guests kept coming over to tell us just how amazing our cake looked! Her dessert bar was also superb, from home-made shortbread to moist cookies and brownies. She even made a rich, creamy tiramisu that did the desert full justice. We look forward to getting more deserts from her whenever we are on island, and enjoying our cake again on our one year anniversary!

The vineyard is beautfiul. The tasting room and the patio are gorgeous, I wish we could have…read morestayed longer and hung out in the cold sunshine, but it was not to be. I'm taking this place down a couple stars for a few reasons. 1. They charge $5 for a tasting. Most places in Washington (outside of Woodinville) don't charge you for tasting, and if they do they waive it if you buy a bottle. Not here - you get charged no matter what. 2. They will not go the extra step to make a sale. They assume everything they have is wonderful (it's not) and you should buy it irrelevant to whether you've tried it. We love wine tasting, exploring new wineries and vineyards and most places we go we've found that once you've started a nice conversation with your pourer and they realize you actually want to taste wine and not get drunk, and then buy wine, they'll give you a couple more options if you're interested. Not here - what you see it what you get. 3. It's over-priced. The wines were average for Washington State, but they were charging high-end prices. I don't know of many wineries in Washington that are selling their malbecs for more than $20 a bottle.

There are some public restrooms nearby if you walk down the pier a bit. The cafe shares a location with what appears to be a whale excursion/souvenir shop. It's clean and has plenty of seating. I got one of their specials, smoked salted maple. The espresso is smooth and the drink doesn't seem to be all ice. I will say I couldn't taste the maple, like at all. All I tasted was salt. I didn't end up finishing it due to this, but I'd be willing to give it another try if I find myself back on the island.

The care and concern shown was fantastic.
