Wow--I'm so glad I stopped in here. I'm a big fan of The Cider Mill, so I knew I had to give this place a try. The interior is adorable, with plenty of windows that let in tons of natural light and really highlight the rustic, cozy vibe. There's also ample seating, which makes it a great spot to linger. I tried their strawberry shortcake latte special in honor of Valentine's Day, and it did not disappoint. They offer several house-made flavor syrups, and the strawberry whipped cream was especially delicious. The latte itself was perfectly balanced--not overly sweet. I also ordered the fig breakfast wrap, which was outstanding. It came out quickly and piping hot. The eggs were fluffy, the bacon was crisp, and the fig flavor was beautifully balanced. The whole-wheat wrap was honestly the best I've ever had--I'm pretty sure it's made in-house. The texture and flavor were on another level, and whatever they do to it (possibly a light sear?) makes it worlds better than the typical store-bought wraps most places use. read more

I'm so glad the Cider Mill opened this bakery a cafe because it was so good! On a Saturday morning, the place was packed with kind people enjoying each other's company and some coffees. The line was almost out the door and the parking lot was completely full which I was glad to see they were doing such great business! Their pastries and homemade sour dough is displayed in their glass case as you wait in line and I couldn't decide what to try first. I went with a breakfast burrito for today and I am definitely going back for some sour dough and whipped honey butter.. are you kidding that sounds amazing. My burrito was so flavorful and super filling so I can't wait to try more! I ordered an iced vanilla latte and it was accidentally made hot - no big deal and they remade me an iced one and even let me keep the hot one too. Their latte art is gorgeous as well, I admired it the whole time. Both coffees delicious and I like their menu isn't too big just stick to the basics and perfect those which is what they seem to be doing and I love it. The staff was so incredibly kind, helpful, quick, and patient with the big crowd and lots of questions! There is a seating area but on a busy morning you might need to come earlier or hope you can snag a table! Our table was a chess board with the pieces in a draw below - how cute and encouraging for people to stay enjoy their time in this cold winter weather. I can't wait to come back! read more

I was excited to try this new coffee house and bakery so I bundled up and took a drive It was opening day, but I got there early to beat the rush. ( I was sure it would be busy). This house/business is so beautifully renovated, it has made use of antiques and vintage items without feeling old fashioned They have their own brand of coffee which was smooth, full bodied and perfect fory first cup of the day. They have a nice assortment of pastries and beautiful loaves of sourdough bread and focaccia. They also had sandwiches, which looked amazing! I brought home a mug(of course), and a loaf of the Caprese Focaccia. It was so flavorful and I made a perfect grilled cheese with it for my lunch read more

It was my first time here, I met up with a friend that has been telling me how great this place was. I agree, everything I ordered was delicious. The wrap was filling and flavorful. I enjoyed the iced latte it was balance with sweetness and taste of the espresso. I picked up the focaccia to make sandwiches at home. The service was friendly and welcoming as you walk in. It wasn't too busy yet but my friend said it gets packed. It's nestled behind The Cider Mill and we sat outside and the utilized the restaurant outdoor patio during the bakery business hours. read more

First visit, arrived about 11:30am and it was pretty busy. Ordered a latte but didn't grab any pastries as the case was basically empty. Latte could have been hotter, as it was only luke warm. We didn't try any other food as we'd previously eaten. Could use a little background music to warm it up. Nice,clean business. Definitely would recommend trying if your in the area. read more

Cozy yet open and welcoming vibes all around! Even for a busy Sunday, Mother's Day, they were stocked with treats. The coffee was tasty, the treats were yummy (even a day later at home), typical prices for the menu. An amazing addition to an already amazing home base restaurant! read more

This place is sooo cute. Went for breakfast this morning and it appears their food menu changes weekly and then they have daily specials and various pastries. It is small inside so you may not get a table but if you do it such a cute space to have breakfast or lunch. I got spinach and artichoke quiche with a mixed green salad and my mom got a wrap. We both got coffee but I got the weekend special which was a blackberry latte and not only was it beautiful but it tasted amazing. Also they have bread and pastries for sale and I brought home a load of sourdough. Everyone I came in contact was super nice and helpful. I am aware this place just opened but it already feels like it needs to expand. Definitely give it a try! read more

This place is so cute! Open and airy inside, this place feels big but cozy. With all of the windows, this place was drenched in sunlight and it was so perfect on a winter day! The service was very quick despite it being packed inside. The strawberry Nutella danish was to die for! I will say the coffee is incredibly strong, sand usually I drink my coffee with milk only, but I had to add some sugar to it. I will be going back for sure! read more

Another new local business! This coffee house/bakery was featured on the news this morning and although it's only 5 degrees out today, (yes, Fahrenheit) I figured I'd check it out as I am in the vicinity. I guess I wasn't the only one. It was packed! Located just behind The Cider Mill restaurant, the place was buzzing! The service was decent considering the crowd. The scenery is pleasant, overlooking trees/ woods in the back. Plenty of large windows and light! The dining area is decorated with a mix of antique end tables/ pieces and more modern seating. There is a fireplace in the dining area but not sure if it is working. A few art pieces are placed throughout and on the walls. I hear the home made breads are fantastic. At 11am today there are some pre-made meal options but all bakery items are sold out! Get here early for the first weeks of business, I suppose. A delightful local option that I plan on returning to! read more

The sour dough bread and delicious pastries. Just how quaint and special the bakery is. The memory of how good every thing taste.The service friendly and efficient. read more

Cute place not far from 690. The staff felt like they were in a hostage situation. No eye contact and not welcoming. Blonde woman was clearly inconvenienced by our visit and none aside from a tall young girl with braids engaged. This is a service industry. That needs to be right first. Decent coffee, baked goods were meh. Old? I can't image what they'd taste like "day" old, but I got an idea with the bread used for my breakfast. It was beat. read more
