The birch bay carts and Rentals — Restaurant in Birch Bay

I came today for the first time after working on a project for my AP Lit class on the beach. I left my cowboy boots on a board and took my other stuff for protection and warmth. A lady and her group passed by and saw my boots (first not knowing whose they were), complimenting me for them. After I was finished, I needed to head out, but I needed to find a bathroom. I was going to stop at the C-Shop, but decided to stop in the café instead. It was very cute from the inside and as I was heading toward the bathroom, someone complimented me on the boots. It turned out to be the lady who complimented me earlier. She was talking as well to the employees, and I asked if she knew them. Little did I know, I was talking to the owner. She and the other employees were so friendly and welcoming of their customers! She even invited me to sit down as we kind of chatted for a little about my project, schools, and cats while I waited for my milkshake (which was very good) before they closed. I got a call from my work saying that I was supposed to be there, and I was pretty distraught. I was so busy and sick with a cold, and I didn't realize I was scheduled that day. Carol (the owner) told me to go home, get better and not to let it worry me. She is such a sweetheart, and she wants me to come back so I can show her my project. I definitely will! Thank you for such amazing...

I have given this establishment 3 stars in hopes that they usually do better.

My husband and I drove through town looking for a quick bite to eat (something to go) on a cold, rainy Saturday afternoon. When we arrived the employee working informed us that her boss was gone and that she was out of many food materials to make the items on the menu. She went on to say that it would be easier for her to list what she "could" make. I quickly asked if she had any soup. Luckily, that was something she had (chili and chowder). It took her a couple of minutes to find the right containers and then the lids to fit them. We were getting a little frustrated at the amount of time this took. However, the soup was good. The coffee stand inside was closed down and that was also a little disappointing.

Having said that, the employee was very polite and the soup was good. As this was our first time going there, I am not sure if this is a common occurrence that they are out of things on the menu or that the coffee shop was closed when the restaurant is open.

Along with indoor seating, they do have a nice covered area outside to sit and enjoy the weather,...

Not the best experience. We went there on a Saturday after lunch hour and asked for a menu which they gave us. My girlfriend was waiting in the truck with the pups so I brought the menu out to her and she chose a Panini off the menu. I go in to order it and they say they don't do Paninis anymore (they should remove it from the menu). So I return to the truck and tell her the news so she orders a Club sandwich for $7.50 with chips and a can of pop (which the menu said add chips and a pop for $1.50) I order a grilled cheeseburger no onions for $7.75 and added chips and a pop to my order too. I grabbed cheetos for me and lays potato chips for my girlfriend. The cheetos were horribly stale so I took them in to exchange them. We got our food and ate it there in the parking lot. It was Ok. Nothing super spectacular and then after we left I noticed they had charged me $30 dollars for the meals!! It didn't add up it should have been no more than 20. I felt dumb for not looking but I was busy getting my drink when they ran the card. I will not be coming back and if you do choose to visit,...
