    It's closed. We visited in Dec. 2023 and there is a sign on the door saying it will reopen Spring 2024.

    My partner and I came in this morning for bagels and coffee. The place has a cool vibe and is…read morecomfortable. It was pretty crowded, so we grabbed a table outside in the front. But a customer inside kindly came out and said they were leaving, offering us their inside table. (There's also the beer garden outside in the back for seating, which looks like it would be nice and comfortable.) I got an everything bagel with hummus and tomato. My partner got everything bagel, scallion cream cheese, tomato ($0.85 for tomato) and lox ($6 for the lox). Although everything tasted good, we both noticed that the bagels were really, really dense, tough and chewy. Like uncomfortably tough and chewy. My partner left one half of their bagel uneaten and I didn't finish mine. It looked great and the hummus and cream cheese and other toppings were fine, but the bagel was really, really tough. I'd like to believe that it isn't because the bagels were stale, but the thought crossed my mind. The coffee I had (dark brew) was outstanding, served in a nice, large mug. Excellent! Service was efficient. I considered a four-star review because the coffee was outstanding, but the bagels were really disappointing. It's too bad. It looks like a cool place, but their main food item appears to be bagels. Maybe it was a one-off, but I spent over $26 for two bagels and one coffee, and I don't plan to come back to find out.

The back patio provided an utmost serene experience in one of the chillest corners of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The temptation to order a cheeky pint at 10am was real!!! Stay strong. Get the bagel Sammy.

    My friends and I went to Afton this past weekend for a quick getaway. Before the trip, I did some…read moreresearch on local coffee roasters, and Happ Coffee was easily at the top of my list. On our way to our Airbnb, a friend and I stopped by Happ, which is located inside an industrial-style building that's incredibly spacious. There's plenty of seating, along with a dedicated area where beans are available for purchase. The barista was really friendly, and we ended up having an in-depth conversation about drink recommendations. When I settled on a cappuccino, he walked me through how each milk option paired with the espresso. I ultimately chose whole milk since it doesn't have an overpowering flavor like almond milk, which allowed the light-roast espresso (an optional upgrade) to really shine. I didn't fully enjoy the cappuccino during the first couple sips because the mouthfeel of the whole milk felt a bit too thick, which didn't pair well with the light roast. However, it became more harmonious as I continued drinking, and the highlight was definitely the bright sweetness of the espresso. I really appreciate a coffee shop that pulls a light-roast espresso well. The barista asked for my thoughts, which I shared, and he then pulled me a shot using their South Paw (house espresso blend) beans to try. I thoroughly enjoyed this light-medium espresso, which was bright and strong, without the unpleasant acidity or bitterness that often follows. I don't typically recommend ordering a straight espresso shot at most coffee shops, but Happ does it well. Overall, it was a great experience -- lovely coffee and friendly baristas who genuinely care about their craft. I left with one of their limited-release coffees (a Peruvian Geisha), which I'm looking forward to trying as a pour-over at home.

    The indoor seating is super cute and lots of options to sit. The workers were so kind and helpful…read morewith suggestions with it being my first time in. The food is great, the avocado toast is fresh and the espresso is awesome! 10/10 recommend!

Wonderful pancakes, egg sandwich, and avocado toast. My eggs were a little past over-easy but it was the only thing that wasn't perfect (and the host offered to have them redone but I said it was fine). We got a blueberry cream cookie and a lemon bar as an appetizer because sometimes we're a little extra and they were SO GOOD! I love a good pastry case and theirs was top notch. There were plentiful refills on the coffee (nice and hearty brew). Our server was so attentive and nice that we tipped extra. Just an all-around surprisingly excellent experience here.

    I stopped in for a late lunch on a Saturday and the place was busy! As fall foliage is over, I can…read moreonly assume these are locals. That tells me I've discovered something, since locals know the best places to go. I changed my plan from a soup and sandwich to a sandwich with a side based on my (outstanding) servers' recommendation. I selected the 'Monaco' but all the options looked good (and I love the names). Since it's a coffee shop I stayed for a cappuccino, which was served in an adorable tiny cup Great service. Not a fancy place but doesn't pretend or need to be.

But in the past couple of years, a certain maps program has been rerouting me past Bridgewater and Churchville in favor of another route to Goshen. I can only assume it's because the company who owns that maps program (rhymes with frugal) is evil, and did not want me to find one of the cutest little cafes that opened in 2019 in the quaint little one horse town. How dare you: (rhymes with Kugal). And ya know... the only reason I decided to drive through Churchville and Bridgewater this time was because of a super slow driver on Route 42 that was driving me nuts... and I just couldn't continue on 42 behind them ANYMORE. So, 2006-ish red Subaru Outback, please accept my rescission of all of my prior comments made to myself in my car driving behind you, and let me thank you, for sending me through an old stomping ground and consequently to MTN Mystic Gallery and Coffee. So now that we've gotten those completely asinine details out of the way... MTN Mystic serves a number of purposes in the town of Churchville including but not limited to: A gift shop, a local cafe, an art gallery, a jam band spot, a painting class venue... the list goes on and on. I was in need of a small gift for someone who had been caring for Toast that weekend and came across a plethora of adorably potted succulents and cacti that were so reasonably priced that I ended up buying 5 of them lol. Yes... I did. And guess what... sitting here now, I'm sort of regretting that I didn't buy more. The two people that worked at MTN Mystic ( A woman and man - whom I believe to be the owners) were just about the sweetest people I've met in a long long time. They were both so welcoming and ready to answer any and all questions. Side note, they also think French Toast is very cute which immediately gives them both bonus points and street cred. Turns out that the woman there actually made a bunch of jewelry in a small section of the cafe/gift shop where I also ended up purchasing a pair of adorable bumble bee earrings from her stand for my friend. Now let's talk about the drink I got. I ended up getting an iced coffee and I asked them to add cream. I will say... it was a little heavier on the cream than I would have gone... but it was also the amount of cream that I always WANT to put in my coffee but never do lol. So... one won't kill me right? ;) Throughout the cafe gift shop you can tell that they pay attention to detail. The chalkboard signage, which the man there actually did, is quite colorful and absolutely beautiful. In terms of the iced coffee, they included iced cubes that were made out of coffee #ManyBonusPoints, and a funny little wacky plastic straw which... ya know... I don't know what to say about that one lol. But... ya know what... If they're trying to make that their signature, it's something that I certainly won't forget anytime soon haha. This is gonna be a legit planned stop on my way down to Goshen next time. No more listening to that twisted maps app (rhymes with Caboodle #TM). I'm 100 percent going through Churchville cause I just can't wait to see what I find at this little eclectic spot next.
