The Jampot was on my UP bucket list of places to visit and that came true today!…read more The Jampot is a bakery run by a community of Byzantine Catholic monks, known as the Society of Saint John. They are famous for their homemade jams, jellies, baked goods, and fruitcakes, which are sold under the name "Poorrock Abbey". The Jampot started in 1986 as a way for the monks to support their monastery, Holy Transfiguration Skete. Fun fact... the individuals that started the monastery had a black Great Dane. After a short wait, we were able to purchase a handful of goodies. Thimbleberry jelly is out of stock until late July but lots of other options were available. For jellies, I picked up a jar of rosehips jelly and sugarless wild blueberry jelly. For snacks, we purchased a carrot cake muffin, chocolate chip muffin, cinnamon sourdough bread, and a cream cheese muffin which was warm out of the oven. We purchased a couple of drinks too - cold pressed blueberry juice and cold brew illy coffee. The cream cheese muffin was my favorite! It was a combination of pound cake and cream cheese with hints of pineapple. How can you go wrong? Plus it was warm! The best! I really enjoyed the carrot cake too. It was full of nuts, raisins, and carrots. Very hearty, just the way I like carrot cake. There is parking, picnic tables, and a dog run on site. No bathrooms. Closed restrooms are 1.6 miles away. The monks were so friendly! Great place to stop in you're in the Cooper Harbor area. Just check the hours to make sure they are open.

Young counter girls could use a little more customer service training. Went back for more coffee and two of the dispensers were empty and settled on the Arabica.

There are other recommended places we may try before leaving Houghton.

It had large hunks of ground beef/pork, discrete and perfect cubes of potato, onion, and carrot, and no ubiquitous brown mystery gravy. I was particularly impressed that the tender cubes of veg were so perfect and not smashed. After I appreciated the beauty of the veg, I savored the perfect spicing of the moist filling. In the nippy, though sunny fall morning, the steam rose from my pastie. Gorgeous! Service? You step up to the walk-up window of Ramona's Bakery, lay down your cash, and tell the tall man what you desire. Honestly, I was expecting a Seinfeldian Soup Nazi, but instead there was a friendly, lovely dude who knew he was about to make your world better if you were a new patron. We sat in the sun to enjoy our pastie. We watched truck after truck stop, fathers in various states of apparel and consciousness popped out, got their order of bags of pasties, and drove off with smiles. Ambiance? This was a walk-up window, not a sit down restaurant, and yet there were chairs in the sunshine. Calumet is a sweet, welcoming town even for strangers with Florida license plates (it's a rental, for fox sake!). I'll be California dreaming of these pasties when I'm back home in my ag county of Monterey, two hours south of San Francisco.

You walk in and there are jams and some other random stuff, and if you want to buy it you just leave your cash in a basket with everyone else's cash that is just sitting there! It's tiny and can't have much of a selection even in the best of times; when I went it was pretty much empty. I didn't buy anything, but it sure does make a good story about my U.P. trip lol.
