    So GOOD! Hands down the best coffee shop in the mammoth mountain area! Far better than black velvet…read moreand mammoth roasters! The food is pretty good as well, and the kindest staff with wonderful service The coffee shop its self is pretty busy because it's so delicious and convenient location Takes both cash and card

    Not my first time at looney (been to the one in bishop), but my first time at the mammoth location!…read moreTucked away in the corner of the plaza you'll find a warm and inviting coffee shop. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Parking is readily available inside of the plaza as well. Lots of doggos visiting with their parents. First walking in it was very toasty lol but you adjust to it eventually. The line situation is a little interesting. When it's crowded, it wraps around and heads towards the back bar and bathroom. It's a bit difficult to navigate to the back of the line or bathroom if the seating is occupied - but manageable. Variety of pastries to choose from! I wish I snagged the coffee cake slice. Reminds me of the ones they'd serve in elementary school back at home (Los Angeles). Every pastry looked to be around $4-6. The staff were extremely friendly and positive. They made the drinks fairly quickly for having such a crowd in the morning. The breakfast burritos are pre-made and kept warm to serve in a display. :) great price point too. Bacon and soy chorizo are available for about $8-9. Mild and spicy salsa on the side. Items ordered: Bacon bfast burrito (4.5/5) - large portion! It was hefty. The spicy salsa was really nice and had a kick to it but didn't over power. The burrito is stuffed with potatoes, cheese, egg, bacon, and pico I think. Would def order again! I just wish there was a bit more bacon. Cortado (4.5/5) - pretty strong and the color was absolutely gorgeous. Not sure what blend they use but I wish there was a bit more flavor. Would def recommend and return! The customers seemed really happy.

    Great coffee and a hidden gem!…read more Tucked away next to a gas station, this little blue café is so easy to drive right past--but that would be a mistake. Thanks to a recommendation from a good friend, I stopped in, and I'm so glad I did. From the warm, welcoming greeting the moment I walked in to the spotless restroom, every detail made for a wonderful experience. The coffee was outstanding. I ordered a double cortadito (macchiato) with lavender, and it was smooth, perfectly balanced, and absolutely delicious. Yes, it's a little pricey for the size, but the quality and flavor make it well worth it. I'll definitely be stopping here again the next time I'm in Mammoth Lakes!

    Why did we eat here? We were in town for mountain biking and…read moreStellar Brew & Natural Cafe filled the mark for a brunch spot. 3% surcharge for credit cards. Menu is full of coffee drinks and health breakfast items like açaí bowls and breakfast burritos. Lots of options for those into healthy food. The food was very good, wish we had spots like this in San Francisco. Service was quick and knowledgeable. Food Review: Acai Bowl ($13.50) was huge and full of acai. Their version is not sweet, compared to Palmetto. Lots of toppings. 8.5/10 Basin Bowl ($14) with Avocado and Cilantro pesto ($2.50) is a hearty lunch dish filled with solid ingredients. Perfect for vegetarians. 10/10 Gluten free/Vegan Morning Glory muffin ($5.95) was not sandy. Pretty decent version. 10/10 Overall - Very Good Food - Very Good Decor - Very Good Service - Very Good Value - Good Would we return? - Yes

    I have been to Tom's Place too many times to count. It is one of those few surviving old school…read more(literally ... it is over 100 years old) roadside cafes that are precious little gems. The food is very good. Not spectacular, and not gourmet, by any means, but very good American fare. The service is also very good, and the current owner is an asset to the community in many ways. But it is the ambiance that really makes it special. It dates back to 1917, and looks it. The dining room has a big fireplace and is paneled with knotty pine. There are a lot of doo-dads about which give the place a lot of character. Next to the dining room is a small bar, similarly festooned with a lot of entertaining doo dads. Tom's place is an official watering hole of ECV, and that alone tells you something about the place. They also have a small general store with convenience food and supplies, as well as simple souvenirs like t-shirts and coffee mugs. Have a look there while you are at it. To give you a sense of the place, consider the attached photograph. It is of the stairway to the restrooms downstairs. That doorway is low enough that a tall person might possibly hit their head, hence the admonishment. That's it in a nutshell. This is either your kind of place or not. But it is surely mine!

    Upon arrival to Tom's place, I let my service animal walk around for second before picking her up…read moreto carry her into the restaurant. I was immediately met on the porch by the owner? A short, portly, long blond/ grey hair lady who instantly barked that pets were not allowed in Tom's place. I informed her that my dog is a service animal, and she immediately raised her voice and started accusing me of lying. She demanded to see paperwork that would prove that my dog is a service animal, I asked her to wait a minute while I pull it up on email and she would not stop raising her voice and basically yelling at me. I had lost my reading glasses the day before and could not see well, I was trying to pull up the email while she was yelling at me. She said she had reading glasses she could sell me, but I needed to show her the proof that my dog was a service animal before she would let her in the store. My dog was now shivering profusely because it was coldish and windy, she pointed it out and I informed her that my dog is shivering from the cold, and we are just hungry this is a huge waste of time, because she is a legal service animal, but I am now under too much stress and cannot see without my glasses to pull up the digital proof that she demands before we enter. I informed her that this was illegal, and she started berating me, telling me I don't know what the law is. She than started being condescending and asking me if I know what ADA stands for. I told her that I am a RN, and that just made her louder and more unruly. If anyonlie from the state wants to talk, I allow YELP to release my email address to them. I have had my service animal for years, and never a problem. I have actually had her in Tom's place before without a problem. I have no idea why a small restaurant owner would rather cause potential litigation and undue stress upon potential customers and break the law and demand proof of service animal legitimacy than just let people with service animals live their best lives in peace. I did not need this experience and neither did the friend that was with me or my service animal . WHO THE HELL CARES IF SOMEONE HAS A SMALL DOG THAT IS SILENT. Unfortunately for you, she is a service animal. I have paperwork. In this day and age in California, they are letting many crimes go unpunished, as it is now racist to prosecute anything. So to all the small restaurant owners out there that give people undue stress about service animals which are not a crime, just shut your mouth, take our money, and obey the law.
