This cute food truck was located right outside Cave Springs Resort where we stayed for 2 nights. I ordered drip coffee and burritos. I really enjoyed them both. The lady running the cart was very kind! Just a side note: Closed on Wednesdays read more

This is a great little place to get a quick bite to eat and whatever your choice of coffee is. I ordered a white mocha and their breakfast burrito. The mocha was ok, but the burrito was really good. Packed with flavor. If you're planning to hike the nearby Mossbrea Falls or any of the other waterfalls/trails in the area, this is a solid local place to support. I'll be back whenever I'm in the area. read more

Dependable place to get coffee on vacation visiting Mount Shasta. I went here for four days in a row when I was in the area. I wouldn't say I loved their coffee, but once I took a few sips, it tasted better and I finished every cup of coffee that I got from here. Friendly service. This is a simple trailer/food cart type place, where you get your coffee/breakfast and go. Note: closed Wednesdays. read more

Instead of making our own espresso in the van we decided to test out this nice kiosk like place before heading south to the Central Valley. Ordered a double shot which was on the bitter side but still a good combo with the excellent brownie and ditto scone. Women (mother and daughter) owned business, supporting their family which is fantastic. Their patio must be happening on a sunny day.... we were not that lucky on that Sunday. I'd want to come back for sure. read more

Found this place while staying at the Railroad Resort for breakfast. Coffee is good. They will pretty much make anything kind of coffee you like if it's not on the menu. A MUST try is their breakfast burrito. Homemade sausage in the burrito. Yumm! Second day they had cinnamon rolls! We had come back twice for it! Sorry forgot to take a picture of burrito, ate it since it was so good. read more

Most of the food and pastries are made by these two girls that run little food truck and they do a great job. Everything is priced reasonably, and the coffee is also very good. They have recently moved and are no longer across from the brewery but right now next to Cave Springs. Will give them a try in the next couple days at thisnew location. read more

Just stopped through on our road trip from Seattle to LA and it was such a cute area. The coffee and chai were refreshing and the breakfast burrito was delicious! The burrito was pressed flat like a panini which we love in a breakfast burrito because it makes it easier to eat. Perfect place to stop if you want to stretch your legs, grab a quick bite to eat, drive through the quaint little town of Dunsmuir, and then get back on the road! read more

This is the best coffee place in town. I wish they were open 7 days a week! I come here every morning I can. So many different flavors to add (that are posted for you to easily see!) and many different non dairy options too. Coffee beans are sourced from SF and seriously best flavor. Amazing consistency for my regular order. Haven't tried their burritos, but based on these reviews looks like I will need to. Thanks for always being so nice and giving me my daily kick! read more

Staff was friendly, seemed like a busy spot during a morning rush for only 1 person to be operating. Great little place to grab a quick coffee and pastry (they go fast, don't get there too late), we're out of Almond Milk, so went with hemp ( not too bad, just gotta get used to that). One thing I wish they could get there steaming temps more accurate on the milk. But all is good, gave me the coffee craving I needed and the espresso tasted perfect. read more

Very good and convenient! My girlfriend and I tried this place while staying at the lodge next door. They were able to make girlfriend's favorite coffee drink for her, white peppermint mocha -- they had a bunch of other flavors to choose from, too. And we shared a breakfast burrito that was filling enough for us both. (It came with really good salsa, too.) I think they used a panini maker on the burrito, as it was grilled on two sides. The burrito was really good. read more
