We pulled up to the window and immediately were greeted with fantastic service. The barista asked what we would like and we looked at her confused because we didn't have a menu. We said we didn't know and she asked what kind of drinks we tend to like and offered us many options based off of our preferences. We are both pleased with our drinks and our experiences! Highly recommend!

The workers were friendly, patient, and helpful. I met a colleague there for a quick meeting and it was the perfect spot.

It was the perfect drink when I added more milk at home. I live 1.5 hours away but I'd definitely stop again if I'm in town.

They also have non dairy options. Hard to believe there's something this cool around here. It basically is in the middle of nowhere. They have a dining room and a drive thru. Be prepared to wait because it seems like it's popular, and it's the only coffee place in town that's not a corporate chain. We were driving by and made a detour to check it out. All kinds of usual coffee. They have lattes with almond milk and other non dairy options. It's about $3.50 for a medium cup. They also have vegan baked goods. It's a couple bucks for a cookie. This is a pleasant surprise for around here. It was amazingly good for small town coffee. Lots of alternative non dairy milks. There's also a good selection of local and vegan sweets and treats.

Came to middle bass island for the Great Lakes cruising club rally (https://www.glcclub.com/) Friday and Saturday were rainy, windy and cool. Friday evening's dinner was a BBQ catered by the team from Island Grind. (Pulled pork, chicken breast, coleslaw, potato salad and dessert bites.) They did a great job bringing the dinner to the Lonz pavilion. It was hot and everything tasted great. Saturday morning, they provided breakfast. Since it was chilly, they offered the speakeasy for us to be in versus the pavilion. The breakfast was delicious. Blueberry pancakes, perfectly cooked bacon, sausage patties, yogurt granola and strawberries and multiple juices. Saturday evenings dinner was salad, garlic bread, lasagna, eggplant amazingly large meatballs, and Italian lemon cream cake for dessert. Fortunately, the weather cleared and was nice and sunny. Dinner in the Lonz pavilion was served hot and it tasted wonderful. Jane and her team did an awesome job all weekend! Highly recommend this coffee shop for their catering as well as anything they serve for breakfast or lunch! A must stop if you're on the island!

Kudos to the buckeye state for putting their tax dollars to good use and converting the old Lonz winery into this gorgeous state park! The old mansion is open for tours where you can learn about the epic parties that George and wife Fannie hosted. The upstairs has been beautifully restored and can be rented!! There are also some walking paths with informational signs about the wine making history on the island and other factoids. We thought we'd make George and Fannie proud and ended our day at the island grind- wait for it- speakeasy!!! The drinks were delicious, and the decor, vibe and crowd were all A+. There is also an adjoining coffee shop and restaurant that's open during the summer. Special recognition to our barkeeps Kieran and Daniel, Lynne the mansion tour guide , and Jane the manager. One of my best memories from my time on the bass islands.

The sandwich I ordered looked nothing like the photos I saw in other reviews, and the taste was just average. As for the cookies, they lacked a rich, buttery flavor and tasted mostly like flour--which is disappointing, since it's usually hard to mess up a cookie. While it seems a lot of people flock here because of the high ratings, it didn't live up to the hype for me. I won't be going back.
