We stopped initially for a quick ice cream bar but these were no DQ bars, they are completely hand made with unique flavours. At $6.00 each they are a touch pricey but totally worth it. In our 1 week stay in the area, we made a point to stop by everyday they were open. BYW the drinks and coffees were a 5/5 as well!. They also used biodegradable straws, cups and spoons. Cool to see a little operation be environmentally conscious...

We stumbled upon this coffee shop near Victoria/Sooke. The owner restored this 1968 VW bus into an…read moreespresso mobile. It was such a cute setup in the wagon with great freshly ground coffee. The owner/barista was also really friendly and gave us tips on how to get to where we were going. Overall, great vibe, good coffee, and amazing service. Highly recommend you go there if you're ever in the area.

Any time we're in Forks we stop here for coffee. It's a decent menu with many syrup options -…read moreincluding Irish Cream - and lots of kid-friendly items. The kids love the milkshakes and Italian sodas. I'm a latte fan, as is my wife though she'll deviate on her typical order time to time. We all enjoyed our drinks and make this place our little stop in town, whether cruising through or grabbing camping provisions. The service is always friendly. It's a bit of a gravel truck stop coffee stand type feel pulling up, but the stand itself is nice enough. There's two windows, one on each side, servicing. Their service is a little slow because it's usually 1-2 people working max from what we've experienced, but we bake that into our expectations. We have not tried any food items here - just haven't had a good opportunity yet.

Stopped here a few times in the last week while vacationing on Orcas Island. Had a great talk with David during one of our visits.

I used to love my trips to Orcas (especially when I would come out to ref volleyball) but it has…read morebeen years since a visit since our family moved to Idaho. I was excited to visit Eastsound and did some research on the current food vibe. Being a caterer/baker myself I was super excited to check out Brown Bear Baking and "treat" our group to some of their bakes. Sadly we were pretty disappointed in 2/3 of our purchases. First of all, the sticky bun was underbaked, doughy with no spring to the roll. I will say that their "sticky" was delicious. On the other end of the spectrum the blueberry peach almond coffee cake was burnt and extremely dry. My daughter did enjoy her peanut butter cream filled sandwich cookie so, points for that. What makes me sad is that I am not sure when I will get a chance to return to see if it was an off day for them and also, food prices are SO high it is disappointing to basically throw away $15 worth of food. Lastly, I am not sure what it is...but what happened to "service with a smile"?....it seemed lacking at most of the places we patronized yesterday.

This place is a charming cafe located in Friday Harbor…read more The food and drinks here were absolutely spectacular. We ordered a few lattes made with their in-house syrups, and every single one of them was incredible. We loved them so much we went back for them again and again over the weekend we were there. We also tried their chorizo burrito and donuts, which were both outstanding. I honestly want to go back to the island just to eat here again! The ambiance of the place is awesome. It is super kid-friendly outside, featuring a wonderful yard with plenty of toys and things to do, which makes it incredibly relaxing for families. To top it all off, the staff was incredibly nice, welcoming, and helpful throughout our visits. I highly, highly recommend checking out Medio Cafe if you are anywhere near the San Juan Islands. It was so good, and it's an absolute must-visit spot that we will definitely keep coming back to!

I got the Third Eye Coffee and it has 7 mushrooms and it was quite earthy. The honey lavender had really delicious sweet lavender floral taste. The coffee was great but we came across a not great experience with a lady/customer in line. She told us to wait outside since the owner doesn't like when the coffee shop is packed as it made him nervous. We acknowledged what she said. The tone was rude and stated, "well, aren't you going to go?" But we were holding the door for her to go out first since we have manners. If what she said was true, I think it would be better if the owner had a sign of some sort so folks aren't scolded but this lady. I tried to tell myself she doesn't represent the coffee shop but it did make me just want to leave to another shop. When we walked by the coffee shop throughout the day since we walked around town, there were definitely multiple people waiting inside like we did. Sooo...

Also got a hot caramel mochiatto which was good as well.

Our experience here was the tale of two very different emotions. We pulled up on a Sunday morning…read moreas we were heading out of town. There were two cars in either direction, so we pulled in behind the one that we thought would go the quickest. After about 10 minutes, we ended up pulling around and going in the other line. We found this one to be equally as frustrating. It wasn't until five bags of food and three drinks came into the truck ahead of us that we realized everybody must be grabbing breakfast for family. A nice exercise in patience! Once we did order, we we're only looking for coffee and iced tea, so it didn't take long. They got my wife's giant iced tea, large enough to bathe a small cat in, and my drip coffee with a shot of espresso in it. I have to say, the coffee was phenomenal! for whatever reason, organic coffee has a very sour taste to me, and this was just smooth and dark! Truthfully, I wasn't expecting a lot and this delivered. The ladies working here were very nice and despite the long wait, we found it was well worth it. It is important to note that this is basically a large shed with drive up windows on either side. I only say that because we drove by at first, and some other friends did the same thing as it's fairly inconspicuous. All in all, this was a solid coffee stop on the way out of town!

on my way in and out of the hoh rainforest i came here twice for breakfast. got a latte which was…read moregreat (and i'm really picky lol, i just drink the espresso with milk), they use good quality beans and probably grind the beans right away. the breakfast sandwich with the english muffin, spicy sausage, and egg was so flavorful and gave me the mental motivation to hike nearly 40 miles into the rainforest. i also got a bagel on the way out too cuz i was so hungry after eating freeze dried food for 4 days, and it was pretty soft and delicious, jalepeno cheddar flavor is nice. all in all, if you're cruising through forks on the 101, stop here for the coffee and brekkie to hold you over on your way to seattle or olympia, you won't be disappointed.

Whether you have a…read moredietary restrictions or wanting a good gf treat, this is it I stopped by for a treat and coffee, and it did not disappoint. The space is cozy and inviting, with seating and a bar area which is perfect if you want to bring your laptop and enjoy a coffee alongside a delicious gluten-free treat. The atmosphere is warm. The selection of gluten free baked goods is impressive. They have sweet and savoury offerings. In addition, they have fresh baked gluten free breads as of noon! I got the baguette and it was tasty I decided to go for a vegan ganache gf cupcake and it was really good! The carrot cupcake also caught my eye. The London fog was great as well. They also carry some other gf products which is great! Plus, if you're wanting to stock your fridge or freezer with some gf breads, they have tons of options for you! Highly recommend origin bakery and the staff is very lovely and amazing!

I stood there confused for a moment and then turned to the two women standing behind the counter and asked, "is this.... it?" they just kind of grinned awkwardly and said "yeah sorry". No explanation, nothing more. Pretty weird for a bakery to have no baked goods. Weirder that the staff offered no explanation or info on when they would be restocked.
