    Plastic in food (cleaned off)

    I would love to love this place, and have tried many times. The gals are always nice at the window but my drinks always have coffee grounds in the bottom and the food is haphazardly wrapped and/or cold by the time you get through the line. It's been a few months since I last went, so I tried to give it another shot and had probably the worst food & drink yet as well as finding a large piece of plastic in my food. For a small town high priced coffee shop, I don't think I can bring my business or my businesses' business there anymore.

    Mocha (NOT what I ordered)

    I've been here a few times and I've never really been that impressed. Every time I've ordered it takes a really long time to get our order, even with no line. The most recent time (today) we stopped on our way through and I ordered a white chocolate mocha. I am certain that's what I ordered because that's the only thing I ever drink. We pulled around and they handed me a mocha (regular, not white). I hate the taste of regular mochas (too bitter for me). When the guy handed it to me, he never offered to remake the drink, even after I insisted it's not what I ordered two or three times. I've worked in customer service several times and I personally would always offer to make it right for the customer. For this reason I probably wouldn't recommend this business to my friends, unless I have a better experience if and when I ever decide to return.

    Worn out and unreadable sign.

    I have always had great lattes here. Not so this morning. My latte was lukewarm. No foam. And worst , reeked of cigarette smoke.

    Well, if you are one of the coastal elite who have invaded the cowboy town that I've spent summers…read morein for over 50 years, you might like this place, otherwise, steer clear of it. On the positive side, their outside dining space is delightful. Shady, tree filled and charming. If you simply want a place for a coffee and a chat - enjoy! Now to the food. The menu seems overthought from the get go. Constant references to local, housemade etc. It tries to sell a certain experience but completely fails to deliver. My mom and I both opted for a simple grilled cheese sandwich with a cup of tomato bisque soup. Soup was solid if on the salty side. I almost have no words for how bad the simple grilled cheese was. No butter or oil of any kind on outside of sandwich. Cheese on inside was a slice of provolone and some scattered cheddar. Not even melted through. Tasted more like stale bread than grilled in anyway. Vessel for soup had such a small top opening that it was impossible to dip without cutting the sandwich beyond halves. (Isn't dipping what you order grilled cheese and tomato soup to do?) Water was never refilled at table despite two requests when they came by to refill coffee. My friends had a quinoa bowl with poached egg on top and the other a simple cheeseburger. Neither even finished half which tells me a lot. The friend who ordered a cheeseburger decided to try their "signature " sautéed spinach instead of fries as a side. His spinach side could have fit into a teaspoon. This place might appeal to the NOLA/girls with unshaven armpits crowd but for honest, hungry people- walk away. It's just a very bad presentation of cali style casual cuisine. BTW, four of us. Two grilled cheese/cup of tomato soup plates, two coffees, one quinoa bowl and one cheeseburger with a teaspoon of spinach- 100+ Unbelievable. The more I see all the gentrification of californication of Lander, the more I hate it and unfortunately, the Middle Fork pretty much sums up what is wrong with Lander's "emerging " food scene.

    I previously reviewed this restaurant and loved it. Visited today and ordered the exact same…read morebreakfast featured in my earlier review (2 eggs to order). It was awful. Potatoes were burnt, scrambled eggs overdone and rubbery, spinach slimy and greasy. If that's still "locally sourced" bacon they should save themselves some money and go to Safeway. Solidly underwhelming experience. Will not be returning.
