    Fresh baked goodies.
    Jennifer J.

    I was craving my third cup of coffee on a lovely Winthrop Saturday, and my local friend recommended the Little Dipper. This sweet little spot is adorable, with retro decor, friendly service, and a nice selection of baked goods. I ordered a vanilla oat milk latte and was soon sipping its creamy delishness as I wandered around the town's first annual outdoor quilt show. Bonus points that they're open early on weekends. There's very little seating, though, so plan to grab your cup o' java to go.

    Wow. What a great idea to use hashbrowns as a crust for quiche! The quiche hit the spot. Excellent.

    On an early morning drive from Mazama to Chelan, I spotted The Little Dipper Cafe and quickly pulled a U-turn and I'm so glad I did! I was short on time but in desperate need of a caffeine boost and a bite to eat and this charming little spot certainly exceeded my expectations! I cannot remember if I ordered a latte or a matcha latte but I do recall I ordered a quiche and everything was delightful. And I remember the quiche was warm, fresh, and filling! What I got at this small cafe in a remote mountain town rivals big city eats! And, better yet, the service was friendly and welcoming! The wait time was minimal which I definitely appreciated since I was on the road and had a time constraint. Prices were more than reasonable, especially considering the quality and the peaceful ambiance. I loved how the employees were still making pastries for the day in the huge oven of sorts behind the freshly baked pastries. I also loved the community posting on the bulletin board, such small town greatness. This unexpected stop turned out to be exactly what I needed. Even though I didn't have time to explore much of Winthrop, this brief stop in combination with the quick drive through definitely made me want to come back to walk around the town, check out all the adorable shops, soak in the Old West charm, and maybe even stay overnight. All in all, I highly recommend The Little Dipper Cafe if you're passing through or even better - make it a planned stop. It's great!

    this was a cute little (emphasis on little) spot open early enough for us to grab a bite to eat before hitting the road for our hike, and it seemed that everyone else in the cafe had the same idea. they had ample yummy breakfast offerings, different from the usual breakfast sandwiches. they had various delicious sounding pastries and even burritos, which we opted for. i got the trailblazer burrito, which was really good. the uncooked black beans provided a nice texture and there was also the addition of some kind of seed- i think sunflower?- and this also added a nice soft crunch. overall, this burrito was a great breakfast option to fuel me for my hike ahead.

    We loved the veggie breakfast burritos here so much we had them twice on our recent trip to Winthrop.

The favorite hands down was the breakfast sandwich. The Asiago bagel was super soft and fluffy. Other great options are the Rick's gutbuster, the frittata, and the biscuits and gravy. We got the lemon blueberry ricotta pancake which was ok (would love more lemon flavor and ricotta fluff) but can't complain for $5 a dish! We also got to sample some biscotti which was very tasty. Mocha and juice was great too Service was excellent!! Donna was super attentive and the kids had pages to color. Highly recommend 5 stars and up! We will be back

It might not be the fanciest place, but it has a warm, welcoming, and super clean atmosphere that instantly makes you feel at home. Plus, everyone here was incredibly friendly. The value you get for the price is unbeatable--our meal was exactly $15! I ordered the Breakfast Bake, which came with a fluffy frittata, roasted potatoes, and a side of fresh fruit. The frittata was packed with feta cheese, making it wonderfully savory, rich, and creamy. It was so much better than the brunch we had at another spot the day before! My friend ordered the Gutbuster, which was a hearty, delicious scramble-style dish. Looking around, it seemed like a lot of other tables were ordering pancakes or bagels as sides, which looked amazing too. Definitely stop by this cafe for a perfect, budget-friendly brunch during your trip!

    Tasty hearty breakfast with kind and friendly staff…read more We came here twice during our visit to Leavenworth, and the second time the friendly lady at the restaurant recognized us and even remembered what I had the day before. I loved my plate. The Bavarian is a nice savory hearty choice for meat lovers, or for those who have a long eventful day of ahead of them. The potatoes were crunchy on the outside and perfectly cooked on the inside. The portion was huge for me, and I'm not someone with a small appetite. I ended up sharing most of the potatoes with my vegetarian partner, who ordered the avocado toast. Btw, he said the avocado toast was on the smaller side compared to the Bavarian, and it was actually perfect paired with another plate of sweet toast. The French toast was tasty too. I also ended up taking a few bites of it in between my Bavarian plate. In short, this is a lovely breakfast spot with friendly staff, reasonable prices, and generous portions. It's a place worth visiting again.

    Absolutely delicious German Bavarian breakfast. Black drip coffee for free refill. We ordered…read moreIrish coffee, Bavarian breakfast with honey butter Waffles. The grilled potato's were crispy and smoky filled with grilled bacons' meaty aroma. Grilled mushrooms were smoky and tender. If the over easy egges could have been cooked less would be better. The honey butter mixture was not overly sweet, the butter and honey perfectly mixed together as a great topping for the crispy outside and tender inside waffles. They offered maple syrup on the side as well. The Irish coffee was filled with the aroma of the Irish whiskey but not overpowering by it. It was a great blend. The server was so friendly, hospitable, helpful, totally recommend you!
