This may be one of Statesville's best hidden gems…read more There is always plenty of seating. The lattes, matcha, and orange-cranberry pastries are amazing. Staff is always so friendly. You won't find this atmosphere in any coffee shop surrounded by a sea of asphalt. Lake Mountain doesn't have many pre-made drinks on the menu. You have to directly order what you want. If you didn't like the menu "latte" you ordered last time, then make sure to specify your order and choose what milk/flavors you want. My only gripe is that they charge for milk substitutes. I really hope this changes in the future.

Coffee and food were delicious and very reasonably priced! We ordered two of the seasonal drinks,…read morethe pumpkin pancake latte and witches brew. Pumpkin spice is such a common fall drink so it was nice to try something different. We also tried the chocolate chip muffin and chocolate cake, and both were amazing! If I went again, I think I might ask for them to be warmed up. They had many seating options on the first and second floor, with large tables for groups and smaller tables in a quieter area. They also had outdoor seating and it is located in a great area for walking.

Even from over 800 miles away, I wanted to make sure she still felt celebrated and loved. Ava went above and beyond. She created a beautiful cake, personally delivered it, and even surprised my daughter with extra goodies. I was told the cake was absolutely delicious and looked perfect. Thank you, Ava, for helping make my daughter's birthday so special and for giving this mom a little peace of mind from 800 miles away. Your kindness and thoughtfulness meant more than you know.

Arrived here mid-day on a Sunday at the recommendation of a friend in the area. This shop is in an…read moreold building in downtown, and the layout and decor is just inviting and beautiful. I was greeted promptly by both the delectable selection and the woman running the shop. The truffles and fudge are first to greet you with tantalizing flavors and colors. Then on to the sky high cupcakes and cakes along with plenty of flavors of gelato. The do not miss part is the cheesecake variety on the end. The rest are an appetizer and the cheesecakes are the mouthwatering main. All of it pairs nicely with a variety of coffees, shakes, floats, and Italian sodas. I come into town one or two times a year to visit family and friends, and I usually have my favorite places picked out to visit while here. The Gondolier is now on my list of must visits!

They greet you upon entering the cafe with a smile. The selection of coffees and things to snack on is always super, with specials related to the time of the year. The Coffee Lodge provides a quiet spot for someone to bring a laptop and study or work. It has comfortable seating for people to enjoy the coffee and the food. There are also many things to purchase from local artisans from jewelry to clothing. Overall this is one of my favorite places to get coffee around. For its convenience, the best coffee, and the variety of seating and places to shop within the lodge, I give the Coffee Lodge a definite 5-Stars! I would go there with friends or family to enjoy a morning or afternoon coffee. I would go there to take my laptop and work for a while in a secluded corner while enjoying some delicious coffee. I would go there to shop for gifts to purchase locally made things. So many reasons I would go there, but the number one reason is for their delicious coffee! It stands out above the rest. I love getting it to go on the way to work or I love getting it to sit there with friends and chat in the morning away. No matter what I highly encourage you to visit the coffee lodge. And beware you may go there for a 15 minute chat and find yourself there for two hours. It is just that comfortable!

There was plenty of seating inside. The coffee was tasty and hot. The vibe was great! I did really like the layout of the shop - there was a worship/church area in the back, a stage along the far wall, and again, lots of seating. The internet was fast so I was able to get a lot of work done. I wish I lived closer so I could visit here more often.

We were traveling thru Troutman during lunchtime and I found Kat's Patch on Yelp. It sounded like…read morewhat we were looking for, so we stopped by. It was a slow-busy day, customers trickled in, but at a steady pace. It's been in business for a few decades, so we weren't surprised at the amount of people who knew each other. We ordered at the counter, sat in a booth, and had a brief wait, since the food is freshly prepared. Soon our food was ready. My husband ordered the "super pimento burger." (It was super because it was larger than the regular burger.) The burger was one of the best diner burgers we've tried. Hand molded, crispy edges, tender middle, and as tasty as could be. The pimento cheese was good, and the bun was very fresh. I had the foot long chili cheese dog. Simple, with American cheese, and a nice mild chili; the dog was grilled and the bun was soft. It was just what I wanted. We didn't order fries and I'm glad because the servings were just the right size. For dessert, we each had a fried apple hand pie. (I had seen the signs on the outside window and knew I just had to have one.) They were also made and cooked on demand and were absolute perfection: crispy, delicate crust, with a juicy apple pie filling. (Better than any other fast food place could dream of!) We are looking to come back for another enjoyable and very affordable lunch! (Tip: watch out upon entering the parking lot, there's a steep dip for low riding cars.)
