If you enjoy delicious coffee, good eats and a pleasant atmosphere, this is a must-visit little coffee shop tucked off the main drag in Cooperstown. Espresso, served in a small to-go cup instead of the tiny espresso cups which is good if you want to add milk I guess, was nutty, dark and delicious with a less pronounced bitterness than most others. Broad and creative hot and cold coffee selections including iced coffee - toffee, Super Cold brew (with MCT coconut oil) and Myco Brew coffee (with Host Defense Mushroom Extract). Wide variety of food that expands far beyond just breakfast including a range of garden salads, deli sandwiches, and Paninis make this a fun spot to come for lunch as well. Nice mix of seating options, including a window counter upfront with high top seating, table seating along the sides, a nice more semi formal seating area with tables in the back, and a fun patio with umbrellas in the back. The tables on the back room are arranged next to what appears to be a steam engine from a 1940s locomotive. Actually, on second glance, that looks like that might be their coffee roasting equipment. Unfortunately, can’t see the lake from here, but the food and beverages more than makes up for the lack of views (and I don’t think there really is much lakefront dining here). They do offer some gluten-free bread options, and do have a couple vegan options, but nothing that is gluten-free and vegan. Knowledgeable and extremely friendly staff will help you select your order as well as engaged in witty banter. Definitely recommend...
Read moreI've been here 5 times, I live about 17 min away and it's the closest fresh coffee beans I can get. Twice when I went I waited in line and when I got to the register to order I was told their machine wawasn currently accepting debit cards and I had no cash and walked away angry. 2 previous times I ordered food that was amazing and inspired me to eat differently. Today when I went they met and exceeded all my expectations. I recently got into grinding my own whole coffee beans at home and making iced coffee and was looking for a french vanilla bean that was local and fresh which was impossible to find until I went there. Not only did they have it but They hand tailored my favorite drink for me!! I ordered a cookie and she knew I wanted a drink but I told her I'm really picky and don't see what I want on the menu. I told her what I liked and she built the drink for me step by step having me give my input along the way, it turned out DELICIOUS! she even wrote all the specifics down on the back of my coffee card so now when I want to order it I can just show it to the barista!!! The last few times I went there I had not great experiences but this time they hit it outta the park! And after my 6th pound of coffee I get one free! They even have a subscription and delivery option! Now I will be a...
Read moreAbsolutely love this place. My other half took me here to surprise me one day. The first things we got were a Lake Otsego Latte and an Orangutan Mocha Latte. Along with an open faced lox bagel and a sausage egg and cheese bagel. Absolutely loved the lox bagel! The Lake Otsego Latte was phenomenal. The other half loved his Orangutan Mocha, he doesn't like coffee either. He wasn't a fan of the sausage in his sandwich though. Next time we went he got the Dolce Vita panini and he loved it. That's his new go to when we get food. I also ended up getting a cannoli and tiramisu one of my visits and goodness, my son and I gobbled up the cannoli. The tiramisu I had to all but fight the other half to get some of it. All the coffees we have gotten so far have been absolutely delicious. Definitely my new favorite spot to get coffee!
At some point I'll get around to posting pics before diving into the coffee and food. I am editing my review from 4* to 5*. The people here are so friendly and the coffee is amazing. The lox open faced sandwich is to die for. Got a hot candycane mocha and it was perfect on a freezing cold day. Thank you Stagecoach for...
