Lots to look at here. Spent far too much money doing it. What's a raven, you might ask? If you have to ask, the distinction won't make an impression on you. For those that know, they're ravens, too, It's a safeguard thing: Odin made the raven an imparter of wisdom. Anyway... This is a great store! The proprietress is a fascinating individual with whom I loved talking, and if we hadn't had a mandatory obligation 80 miles away at an appointed time, I probably would have spent more time and money (yes!) in the store. It's on my list of places to revisit when we return to La Conner.

On multiple occasions, they have made me feel bad about asking any questions at all about the menu or not ordering quickly enough. They seem put out by serving customers. The last time I was in, I had a question about the size of a beverage, and the woman was not only rude to me, but she proceeded to talk rudely about me behind my back when I was in the bathroom and my friend who was waiting for me overheard at all. I guess they have enough business, because they feel like they can treat customers like crap. The coffee is nowhere near good enough to treat people this way, as well.

Our meal was good though prices are high, portions were on the small side, and the kitchen was a bit heavy handed with the salt which was a common thread through our appetizers and entrees. There is no children's menu and truffle salt coated the fries so they were not appealing to young palates. We ordered 4 appetizers shared around the table, bread (excellent but not included with the meal), a single soup, 6 entrees, and 9 cocktails (two with no alcohol). The bill came to just over $600 before tax and tip.

They offer suggestions based on diet restrictions or something you might not like. They are always there to make a suggestion and offer help but are not hovering.

It's lovely to view the river while you are dining. Highly recommend this wonderful restaurant.

She deserves all the praise. Yesterday I took a drive to LaConner (I live about 45 minutes away) because I needed to clear my head not because of what's going on in the world but due to a situation with other tenants where I live. Of course with the COVID19 closures and stay home orders it's hard to take a drive, but I had a tension headache for days that was on the verge of skipping into a migraine (even while in La Conner I had to take some anti-nausea medicine), my stress was at its limit, and I needed to get out. I wasn't thinking clearly, I just DROVE! My drive took me to La Conner where at 40, I can say I had not been there since I was a kid. I enjoyed strolling around the ghost town and just being out of my duplex for a moment. The fresh air helped my stress, which helped my head. The peacefulness of the passage healed me in many ways. But then my bladder attacked me. The public bathrooms were closed, due to COVID everything was closed -- which I knew could happen -- all La Conner closed except this store. Upon walking in I inquired about a bathroom, and was told no, absolutely no bathrooms for the public. I told them my story, the headache, the weird people I share a duplex with, how far from home I was, and asked if they knew of any other store or even a gas station in the general area that had a one... eventually Leeann just let me use the bathroom. Except she got in trouble for it. She should not have, she was only doing the HUMAN THING... she was being a GOOD PERSON, a KIND & CARING, COMPASSIONATE PERSON. I don't know if they will read this, but with everything going on in the world I know everyone need to be more careful than ever, but we also need compassion and to help and care for one another. We need more Leeanns in this world.

The omelet was fluffy, the potatoes were delicious, and the portions were generous. It was one of those meals that had us talking about how good it was long after we finished. What made the experience even better was the incredible service. Our waiter, Stevie, was so sweet, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. You can tell he genuinely cares about his guests. We also want to give a special shoutout to Emily, who took the time to stop and chat with our daughter. Small gestures like that mean so much when you're traveling with little ones, and she made our family feel so welcomed. Great food, wonderful staff, and such a warm atmosphere. We'll definitely be recommending this spot to family and friends and will be back the next time we're in town!

I came for ONE cookie. ONE. What I found was an absolute wall of bakery beautifulness that stopped me dead in my tracks. The line was out the door, not surprisingly but I needed every minute of that wait to make my decisions. Final verdict: a raspberry kiss mocha (dreamy), a lemondoodle cookie (excuse me, WHAT), and a molasses cookie that I'm still thinking about. To. Die. For. My husband went rogue and ordered a Lotus drink, which unfortunately arrived as approximately 90% soda water with the flavor just... vibing separately at the bottom. We tried. We stirred. We let it go. Stick to the baked goods, friends. The staff was warm and lovely even with a line out the door, which is its own kind of superpower. Calico Cupboard, I will be back. Ideally with a seat at an actual table someday. And maybe six cookies this time.

There is some street parking, but we ended up parking in a public parking lot north of the cafe. The place is cute and charming, and it's decorated with art that is for sale. The menu on the wall was just for drinks, and their food menu was laminated nearby for us to peruse. We had a nice chat with JJ (who I think is the co-owner), and he was very bubbly and nice. It was fun to witness his kindness to other customers and neighbors as they came in. This place seems very involved with the community. There are a few tables both outside and inside. The TV behind us was playing Pandora for radio music. Nearby, they had some free chocolate-covered coffee beans and your own water and silverware station. I got an Arnold Palmer, and boy, was it tart! I got my own sugar to try to sweeten it up. I also ate the Ricky Ricardo panini, and it wasn't my favorite. The aioli wasn't flavorful enough for me to notice, or maybe it was missing, and the pickles were too thick. I didn't love the flavor profile on this sandwich, and it was pretty hot (in temperature) to eat, so I had to let it cool down a bit. Connor loved his smoked salmon toast! There were a ton of capers, so lots of salt there. The herbed cream cheese was the star of the show, with the flavorful toast being a close second. He really appreciated it. I think I'd be happy to come back and try a different sandwich.

I was left speechless (not really) and had a dozen questions for JJ and Krista on Mother's Day about this specialty drink. It's such a hit that I had to buy their syrup for making millionaire bacon in the near future. Hubby ordered tea and the croissant sandwich. It was super filling. I liked the ambience, the people, the food and drinks so much we returned the next day and bought the same things, plus a two toned hoodie, and 3 desserts. Eldest daughter loved the tartness of the lemon bar. I enjoyed the bread pudding after warming it up in my toaster oven at home because I was too full to eat it there. The tiramisu cheesecake was mild and delicate, not overly heavy. The only critique I have is the blended berry Greek yogurt. It was a typical grocery store yogurt. Okay.
