First Chapter Coffee House — Restaurant in Gold Beach

It's hard to figure out where to park, theres no lines. Wouldn't know what the food tasted like because I left before my food was ready. I went there after looking at the menu online and knew what I wanted. I asked for the napoleon, bacon, cheese, bread, simple. Ok, so the updated sandwich has ham and pepperchinnis, and it is spicy, which I didn't want ham or pepperchinnis. The person behind the counter informed me that the only difference is that there's pepperchinnis, when there's clearly pepperoni and ham too, from seeing the menu. It's not like it matters, anyway, but they clearly got frustrated with me for looking up the menu online again to show them what I was talking about, even though there was literally Noone else in line, they were rushing me. Then they apologized to me in the most sarcastic, condescending way possible. I ordered a drink, and they overfilled it. It spilled over the top when I picked it up, getting on me, my wallet, the floor. I had to go around and ask where the napkins to clean it up. It's such a huge open space that it's hard to find where anything is. I had to walk out of there to mask my frustrations, and I decided it wasn't worth going back in to get my sandwich. Don't worry, I still...

This is the only place I get my coffee in Gold Beach. The coffee is always good and always consistent. Some places are a little bitter, but not here. The drink menu is based off classic novels and characters like Lestat and Peter Pan but they also have regular mocha and lattes. I also love the blended lemonade with coconut and lime. The staff is awesome too! Ocean, Evyn and Brynley always make my day better! And Tyler is absolutely killing it in the kitchen with the baked goods lately. Try a cinnamon roll or a chocolate chip cookie (they're huge!). There is art to browse and buy as well as a nice selection of used books. It’s the perfect place to sit and catch up with friends while you get yourself a little treat. (Side note: as a customer, please be kind and respectful to the people serving you. A please and thank you...

We have been up and down the coast of Oregon, and each time we go, there is the unending quest for the perfect cup of coffee for my wife, and the perfect cappuccino for me.

There have been many disappointments in this quest, as many shops can supply the ambiance expected in a coffee shop, but precious few measure when the golden brown liquid is consumed.

That quest has ended, and in the most unexpected of places; the Curry County Public Library in Gold Beach Oregon.

On August 12th, 2019, Bartholomew prepared the best cappuccino I have ever had on the Oregon Coast. It was so good that I had another immediately after the first one.

I rarely have a Latte, but I followed up the cappuccinos with a Latte - it was sublime.

Next time we are on the Southern Oregon Coast, you can be sure we will find our way to The...
