The only thing Yonah could improve upon is by having plenty of lemons & limes for my beverages. (They ran out! ) Their delicious fresh-squeezed orange juice is thrilling to drink. In addition, their coffee drinks make other baristas at "stary shop bucks" embarrassed by comparison because Yonah's are so creative and icily delightful. A toothsome treat to be certain! Quite a variety of yummy concoctions therein. All Yonah egg dishes rock, as does the turkey Club Sandwich. I'm particularly fond of all the varieties of Eggs Benedict- especially those with spinach or avocado. This place stars Tasty pancakes, French Toast tastes great too. Homemade buttermilk biscuits just can't be beat. We highly recommend this brunch bistro and barista's bar. All the servers are young, attractive, and exuberant. Thumbs up! Nice quiet atmosphere too. Children friendly . read more

Cute place with great service. Cinnamon rolls and muffin were very good. The bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit was big enough to split. Biscuit was fluffy with crisp bacon, eggs cooked to order, and your choice of cheese. Definitely enjoyed the frozen hot chocolate. The sweet potato pancakes were a bit heavy on the spices but still good. Bacon was cooked crispy, as requested. I liked the jalapeño cheddar grits, not enough heat to make them hot but a good balance of flavors. read more

First time visiting- - the atmosphere is very cozy inside and they even have plenty of outdoor seating-our waitress Lexi was very friendly and happy to share her suggestions on what to order for our breakfast! I ended up having eggs Benedict with avocado and home fries- my husband had the Big Bear- the food was amazing, very flavorful and warm. My sweet tea was delicious and not too sweet and the orange juice my husband got was fresh squeezed this morning. We will definitely be coming back and asking for Lexi as our server! read more

My family and I came here for a good sized brunch before a day of hiking and boy we left satisfied. We arrived around 11am on a Sunday and they were quite busy. There was a slight wait for a table, but they moved very efficiently and we were seated in less than 15 minutes after arriving. The atmosphere is very welcoming, cozy, and family friendly. The service was excellent! Our waiter was super friendly, very attentive, and accommodating. He gave us plenty of time to look over the menu and made sure our waters and coffees were filled. As for the food, it was all excellent and the portion sizes were super generous, especially for the price! I ended up ordering the breakfast burrito which was filled with three scrambled eggs, onions, peppers, and a choice of meat (opted for chorizo), served with a choice of a side (home fries). This burrito was absolutely amazing! The eggs were super fluffy and the chorizo was really flavorful - adding the perfect amount of spice! I also appreciated that all the fillings were equally distributed throughout the burrito, so each bite had a little bit of everything in it. The home fries were good as well. My dad ordered the Big Bear entree which included their famous seasoned home fries topped with three eggs your choice, crumbled apple-wood smoked bacon, crumbled sausage, and cheddar cheese, with gravy over the top, and a choice of grits for the side. My dad loved this dish and noted that it was very heart and filling. He really enjoyed all the components of it, complimenting the amount of flavor. My sister ordered the Eye Opener Entree which included two eggs your choice, served with sausage, bacon (or ham), grits, and a biscuit (or toast). The bacon was cooked nice and crispy, and the biscuit was very fluffy. She opted for the cheesy grits and really enjoyed those as well! My mom opted for the Loxacado entree which was toast smothered in avocado, topped with smoked salmon, sliced tomatoes, capers, chives, and pickled onions, with a choice of a side (cheesy grits). My mom liked her dish and thought it was fresh, with good flavor. Then, we decided to split the ultimate stuffed French toast because it looked too good to pass up. The ultimate French toast was stuffed with their sweet cream cheese, strawberries, and blueberries, topped with blueberry compote, served with choice of meat (bacon). This dish just hit the spot! It was quite rich and heavy, but perfect to share. The cream cheese and berry compote were excellent and the toast had great flavor. I would recommend ordering anything we tried. Everything was great and we were not disappointed with anything. Overall, Yonah Coffee and Cafe is a great breakfast spot for any occasion. The atmosphere is great for families and a good time. The service is on point and everyone was very welcoming, efficient, and helpful. The food was impressive and the price was even better, especially considering how generous the portions were. If you are in the area, I would 100% recommend checking this place out. I doubt you'll be disappointed! read more

This was our second time giving this place a chance, and it confirmed that the first experience wasn't a one-off. We were seated, waited to order drinks, received water, and then sat for 25 minutes without being able to place a food order. During that time, our server was actively bussing tables around us and never acknowledged us once; not even a quick "be right with you." Meanwhile, other servers who were just as busy managed to take orders promptly, and some guests even received drinks or food before we were ever spoken to. We finally got up to leave, and only then were we told, "I'll be with you in a second." At that point, it felt dismissive and frustrating. A two-second acknowledgment would have changed everything. We gave this place a second chance despite the food being underwhelming the first time. Between consistently poor service and food that isn't worth the wait, it's hard to justify coming back. Nice space, bad experience... twice. read more

We were in town visiting our grandchildren this past weekend. We asked our son and daughter-in-law if they wanted to go out for breakfast on Sunday morning. They recommended Yonah Cafe so we decided to give them a try. We arrived and asked for a table for 6 (including two toddlers). We waited 30 to 45 minutes outside of the restaurant for our table. This is a small restaurant so the wait time during high volume can be long and we were there during their peak volume. We were seated at a table and ordered drinks. Two of us ordered a hot coffee drink and it took 15 or more minutes for our coffee to be delivered. The coffee was delicious but required a long wait for delivery to our table. My better half ordered the Traditional Eggs Benedict's with fried potatoes and I ordered the Big Bear with cheese grits. Our son and daughter-in-law ordered the Breakfast Burrito. My wife sliced through the poached egg and discovered a hard boiled egg. No runny yolk but a fully cooked yolk. The great thing about Eggs Benedict is cutting into the poached egg and having the yolk run over the Canadian Bacon on underlying English Muffin. That was not happening with these overcooked eggs. I sliced into my "Over Easy" ordered eggs on my Big Bear to discover my yolks were fully cooked. Again a disappointing experience. A restaurant that specializes in Breakfast and Brunch should deliver eggs that are cooked as ordered. The Breakfast Burritos looked great and were enjoyed by our family. Our server was friendly but very busy with many other tables. While this is a popular breakfast place that was packed with diners, their execution of our orders was disappointing to my better half and me. read more

Regretfully rating with 1 star after horrible service today. Waited 45 minutes to be seated and a long time to have someone take our order, which came without items. Disorganized and we will not be back. Attempted to do a call-in order but they have the phone off so it's a constant busy signal so they don't have to answer. read more

I always enjoy coming to this place, the food is great and a good cup of coffee to go with it. The servers are kind and very friendly which makes the experience much better. The overall ambience is cozy and welcoming. I highly recommend for a cozy cafe brunch! read more

A quick stop to take out coffee/breakfast sandwiches. The Yonah iced was delicious and fruity. Honeysuckle also very great flavors. The breakfast sandwiches were huge! One bacon and egg croissant and one bacon egg and cheese biscuit. The biscuit was so good and the bacon perfect. The take out wait was short and the staff friendly. read more

Food was excellent grits, yummy coffee like silk. Server Lacey helped move us out fast.

Giving this place 5 stars for Service, Gender Neutral restrooms, Gluten Allergy options, Alternative milk and Alcohol availability on Sundays although during limited hours (hallelujah!!!) The coffee is alright, not the best. However after spending 5 days in Smokey mountains I realized this is actually pretty decent coffee. So if you are from Portland Seattle or Boulder etc (you will not love this coffee). But this is as good as it gets in the area if you want to support a local coffee shop. Now the breakfast here is excellent. We ordered eggs Benedict(one with chorizo) on gluten free toast and also gluten free avocado toast with bacon. Delicious food and loved the texture of GF bread. The ambiance was pretty cool. very airy and modern coffee shop and almost all table have a power outlet so a great place to sit and work. Would be nice if they added cushy furniture for people to sit longer hours and work. read more

Great coffee, great drinks, Barista Danielle makes the best drinks ever...perfect everytime. The servers are friendly, prompt, always smiling, always refilling our cups....always making sure everything is perfect for our dining pleasure. We highly recommend the biscuits....and gravy. We have never seen an improperly cooked egg. The avocado toast is to die for. We always order jalapeño cheese grits! BLT chicken salad and the pasta are our two favorites. People drive for miles for the tomato bisque. We eat there several times a week and have never been disappointed. read more

Great Breakfast, Excellent Service, in a clean comfortable setting. Will definitely be back!

The only reason Yonah Coffee and Cafe isn't getting 5 stars from me is due to our service experience. It was slow for the number of customers there and we had to remind our server about missing items multiple times. However, we really enjoyed dining outdoors and all of our food and drinks were delicious. Yummy fresh squeezed OJ and lattes to drink. I loved my south of the border benny with jalapeño cheese grits. Was also nice I could add on a piece of french toast since I was struggling to decide between dishes. read more

If you want a good breakfast that's cooked to order, come on! It's located on Historic 441 north of the hospital in a strip mall. So plenty of parking. The staff here are great, especially Adeline( Sorry if I spelled it incorrectly). She was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and food selection. I ordered the Eye- opener with fresh fruit. It was amazing. I enjoyed the fact that the bacon was extra crispy just like I asked. They went the extra mile to throw butter and jelly in with my to go biscuit. It's the Southern Hospitality that makes me feel at home. I grabbed a coffee to go and it did not disappoint. Thanks so much for the love:) Go here , you'll be glad you did! read more

Delicious iced coffee & danishes! Nice outdoor seating space & clean bathrooms! Good service!

It's about time Cornelia area has a decent coffee and cafe place to hang out and Yonah Coffee definitely delivers! From the creative touches of coffee bags on the ceiling to the old fashioned lighting - the ambience is wonderful. The food was delivered promptly and my grandson was quite happy with the hot chocolate! read more

Great lunch! We arrived at 2:50 and they close at 3 but told us to come on in and order. Did not rush us, very attentive wait staff. Ruben and Big BlT were great, bread tasted homemade. Home fries were a nice treat. Portions are generous, took half home for dinner. read more

Great chicken salad and roast beef sandwiches made for a tasty lunch. Glad we stopped here!

Located in an unassuming strip mall right next to the hospital. You can get orders to go or dine in. My husband and I dined in. The dark roast drip coffee was not too acidic and it's free refills. The food was very good and serving sizes were filling. My husband had the western omelet and the cheese grits were well seasoned and delicious. I ordered the pancakes with strawberries (on top, not inside) which were also very good. The strawberries were fresh. Place got busier as we were finishing our meal. Bathrooms are clean. Gender neutral singles. Will definitely come back. read more

We go there for brunch almost weekly, we try different things on the menu each time and are never let down. From as simple as the Eye opener breakfast to the the carb infused Big bear you cannot go wrong here. The coffee is out of this world and comes in an assortment of styles. Starting with a Cuban espresso to a honey suckle latte with sweet whipped cream your coffee craving will be quenched! read more

Yonah Coffee And Cafe - Cracker Jack Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Demorest, Georgia

Customer service: The employees were wearing their masks properly and the place is clean! Food was given fairly quickly and an employee checked on us from time to time. Food: We ordered an iced cracker jack latte and a latte (around $5 each) and for food we ordered "The Big Bear" and "Ultimate French Toast" which were around $9-$11. The Big Bear was slightly too salty for my taste but that's just my personal opinion. Overall we enjoyed eating here! Will be back again :) read more

Great breakfast and absolutely loved. all of the food. My big biscuit was floating in delicious white gravy. Crispy bacon & Belgian waffles were a "fam" favorite. Ate here with a large party and snagged the private room. Packed out on the weekends, so plan ahead. Good turtle latte. Server was so sweet to recommend oat milk in the hot chocolate for a better taste..for our picky hot cocoa drinker! Family has been back to eat two more times. Return trips were great too. read more

We are visiting Mount Airy and were craving a nice, comforting, country breakfast and Yanah did NOT disappoint! I had the biscuits and gravy and my husband had The Eye Opener and we both enjoyed our meals thoroughly. Did I mention they serve alcohol? I had a mimosa while my husband enjoyed some black coffee - both drinks hit the spot. Took a Yonah latte to go and it was delicious! Our waiter was Caleb and he was so friendly, helpful, and just the sweetest. Also, the place is styled nicely - modern, minimalist rustic. It was clean and had a great ambiance. Can't wait to be back and try something different on the menu. The pancakes were calling my name!! 10/10 recommend Yonah!! read more

Breakfast was fantastic. Great service and very friendly staff. Have been before and will go again

One of our new favorites. Great coffee great food, great portions, and really friendly service. We were staying in Helen and debated making the drive away from the main down town strip but it was worth it. read more

Great little breakfast place that makes a good coffee (and their London fog is pretty good too) - no offense to other coffee places in town...but go here if you want a good cup made right I got their breakfast burrito, and my husband got a breakfast sandwich both were very satisfying. We had great service and felt that the waitress was very helpful and tentative to our table. Would definitely recommend and would be back to try other things on the menu....like the French toast...looked very yummy... Next time. read more

This place is amazing! A very nice and cozy place to enjoy your coffee! I try their coffee and it is neither sweet nor lacking in anything. Unfortunately, I do not remember the name of my drink, but all my friends like their drinks. They give you stickers to design and write your name on it and stick it to their wall, or simply do whatever you want with it. They have two tables and standing stand and stools for high top facing the outside which is very romantic and relaxing on a rainy day. We come in with a group of people and fill up the area and more customers come in, but the staffs show no signs of rushing us out, so that is a plus! A very friendly environment! Definitely try it again if the chance come by! read more

Happened to be visiting Helen, GA after an awesome visit to Ana Ruby Falls which is in the area. We had a hot cocoa craving and decided to stop in and grab some. This is a small local business that provides great service and the cocoa and coffees are just as good. Everyone was super friendly and we had a great time while we where there. On the pastry side they have a few muffins for sale but there main claim to fame is straight up coffees, lattes and cocoa. Plenty of parking in the immediate vicinity and while you are in the area check out the little German Town of Helen. It is pretty nice and well worth the tome you will spend. Enjoy! read more

Wonderful food. The previous owner seemed a lot more hands on and welcoming. Convenient location. Prices have increased to a point I can't go there often. The private dining spaces are a nice touch if you want a quiet spot to do business or visit. read more
