    We checked our Origin Coffee during our day in Saranac Lake. When we got there, there was a large line out the door. It seemed to be moving, so we waited in it. The whole time we were at the restaurant, the line was persistent! We got a sweater weather latte, the breakfast burrito, and the biscuit sandwich. The latte was truly amazing, one of the best we've had in a long time. The breakfast burrito was similarly incredible (likely the best we've had on the east coast!). The biscuit fell a bit flat, but wasn't bad at all. I see why this place is highly rated, huge fan!

    Cortado
    Craig G.

    Simply put, one of the best coffee places there is! Always look forward to starting my day with a perfectly made Cortado whenever I am in Saranac Lake. Friendly staff turning out excellent drinks with a smile, even when slammed!! Great breakfast/lunch menu is you need more than just coffee.

    All three kinds of panini were delicious. It's so delicious that I recommend it. I went there three times in a week.

    Sweater Weather Latte
    Daphne Y.

    Came here for coffee before our snow activity for the day. I got the sweater weather latte. It had maple, cinnamon, cardamon. It was a perfect warm drink for winter (or anytime really). sweet but not too sweet. Beautiful latte art as well. My fiance got the congo pour over. He said it was bold and delicious. Cute little place with a few tables. We dined in with our coffees and they brought them out in mugs. It wasn't crowded for 845am on a Saturday. Most people who came in seemed to be grab and go. Would definitely go back next time we're in town.

    Hot oat milk and honey matcha
    Donna R.

    Stopped in for a light breakfast. Had honey & oat milk matcha and avocado toast. Both were very good. Hubby had a red eye (coffee w/shot of espresso). Limited seating and when a table did open up the party left their dishes on the table...maybe a sign reminding people to clear their own table would be helpful. Overall coffee, food, and service are very good and I would recommend.

    Breakfast sandwich and smoothie
    Maeve M.

    Cute coffee shop with a decent breakfast menu and space for seating. The biscuit breakfast sandwich was 10/10 delicious! Hot and fresh and the biscuit tasted homemade. The smoothie left something to be desired but everyone who got coffee was very happy!

    Origin coffee and the kitchen

    Great place for coffee and cozy drinks. The food is light breakfast fare prepared by a chef that knows flavor. Small dishes that fill the soul and hunger. Try the Carrot Coconut Bisque! They have wonderful gluten free options too.

    A delightful coffee shop in the heart of Saranac Lake, Origin excels because it combines cheerful ambiance with quality food and drinks. Their oat matcha honey latte is among the better matchas I've ever had, and their vegan breakfast sandwich is good. My only complaint is that the vegan sandwich is only vegan if you remove mayo and cheese -- just take it all the way and start carrying vegan versions of those both! Their breads were very good; my sandwich was on sourdough, and my mom's had focaccia. They were fresh and not dry in the slightest. I appreciated how Origin had a couple of levels and diverse types of seating. The baristas were cool and knew what was up. They use Oatly. I can't say enough good things.

    A beautiful coffee shop in downtown Saranac with so much fun seating options, a fun seasonal menu, and delicious lattes. This was one of the best lattes I've ever had - smooth and delicious! And the staff working the counter were so welcoming and friendly. The ambiance here is very inviting and I will definitely return!

    Avocado & Egg on Gluten Free toast

    I had a wonderful pour over with an amazing Avocado & Egg on Gluten Free Toast. The people were warm and helpful.

    Avocado toast~

    Fresh, tasty food. Great coffee and atmosphere. Small seating areas, so you may have to wait for a table. See my photo of yummy avocado toast! Artful and good.

I cannot even begin to explain the delicious food but more than that a place where I can eat a comfort meal while watching planes depart and arrive from a beautiful airport. The owner and employees are so attentive, caring and all around just loving people! This is the BEST cafe I have ever reviewed especially if you love airplanes like me!!! Since moving, I look forward to visiting here anytime I come for vacation!! A very nostalgic comfort breakfast for me! Simply the best! KAP316

    This was such an unexpected treat!…read more Walking around Lake Placid, we bumped into a couple who wound up suggesting a couple of restaurants for us to check out. Cavu was at the top of their list! And with their description of planes taking off and landing nearby, we thought it would be the perfect spot to bring our toddler. To access the restaurant, you have to walk into the airport. I've never been in such a tiny airport before! The cafe space overlooks the tarmac, but we were a little bummed that we only saw one plane takeoff while we were eating. We aren't locals and assumed there would be more! But that wasn't an issue. Plus, once my toddler started to get fussy, the staff whipped out a coloring book and some crayons. It was so so kind of them and nice that they were prepared. The food was excellent as well. My husband got the hash and eggs and was very pleased with the big hunks of corned beef throughout the hash. I tried his homefries and they were also delicious! I got the apple stuffed french toast to share with my toddler. It was perfect. We also got a side of maple cream, which I still dream of. Will definitely come back on our next trip to the area.

    Went here for brunch on Sunday with my husband and a friend who was in from out of town…read more The restaurant was somewhat busy but there was only one waitress. We waited awhile until she came with water and took our order. We asked some questions about ingredients in some of the dishes and she wasn't quite sure about that. My friend and I ordered iced coffee and the waitress came back and said they were out of ice. Huh? Strange but true. Needless to say we had hot coffee and she was sweet and comped our coffees. We ordered a piece of the quiche of the day which was artichoke/gruyere and was delicious! We left no crumbs!My husband had the spinach/gruyere cheese crepe which was pretty good. I had the eggs Benedict without potatoes (my friend had it with) which basically took the place of the starch that the eggs sit upon. I thought the potatoes would be served as a side and an English muffin would be on the bottom - wasn't mentioned but I enjoyed nonetheless. Will definitely go back because the food was delicious. They just need some more staff to be more attentive.

I had to go and find the waiter to order dessert and then another search later to get the check.

We were in the mood for lunch and they were only serving breakfast that Sunday. So, we opted for the most lunch-ish thing available that wasn't too heavy. Bagels and cream cheese. They were perfectly toasted and there was plenty of spreadable cream cheese. It made for a perfect light lunch. I don't eat eggs, so it did limit my options. If you do eat eggs, their breakfast dishes with eggs look amazing. Of course, we tried the coffee. It was very good and we loved the mugs. The place is rustic-charming. The service was good. It's a busy place. We loved the regulars who stopped in and didn't even need to say what they wanted. The servers already knew. The service is good but slow. Not sure if that's because they were busy or if they're just not the type to rush things. The bathrooms are clean. There is an up-charge for credit cards. It's hard to resist buying mugs and coffee to take home. The cookies were so hard to resist we bought some to keep us snack-happy on our travels. Definitely a good place to stop.
