    Caravan Chicken and Waffles
    Xavier Thomas M.

    What a cool concept! Coffee shop in a converted van! It's a popular place though so make sure you're down to wait and hang out. The seating area is a great spot and the view to the lake is really nice too! The staff was super nice and very transparent about the wait times so it was really nice to hear. The food and coffee were great! I got the caravan chicken and waffles. The waffle had a nice toast but still soft. The chicken was really good too! And the syrup wasn't too sweet, so it was perfect! As a huge coffee fan, the cold brew is really good! Great taste, strong and bold, and even without sugars or anything, it's great! I definitely suggest visiting!

    We were so excited to eat here but were extremely disappointed. We ordered a Lemon Lake waffle for $12. We didn't see any lemon curd but lifted the whipped cream to find a dollop the size of a nickel. It was almost as if they knew there was barely any lemon curd so they hit it under the whipped cream. I went back to the window and they tried opening a new jar of curd and couldn't get it opened so they did their best to scrape the bottom of a jar of lemon curd and gave me about a quarter size amount in a small cup. Very disappointing. The Campfire Chocolate was $9.50 and they were a very tiny drizzle of Nutella on top. My daughters love Nutella and that being the first item listed we were certainly expecting more. We also shared a Caravan Chicken for $9.50 and were also not impressed. It comes with three small chicken strips (not freshly battered & fried, they seemed to come frozen then fried) and served without syrup unless you ask for it which is 75¢. Lastly, we ordered 2 16oz Latte's for $5.85 each and they were warm at best. I would've assumed them to be hot and this wasn't the case. The overall flavor was good but I personally felt that for the price, they were definitely lacking. I loved the atmosphere outside and their setup was adorable. The staff was friendly so that was a plus. I'm glad we had the experience but I doubt we will be returning.

    I noticed this cute little coffee truck while walking around Saugatuck recently. There's a nice seating area where you can enjoy your coffee and waffles, so I stopped by on a quiet morning and grabbed a vanilla latte. The waffle options sounded good - there were a couple savory choices and some sweet flavors - but I had my heart set on a breakfast sandwich from a different shop, so I just went with the coffee. The employees were quick and kind and I had my latte in hand in just a few minutes. The latte was lightly sweet with the vanilla syrup and creamy from the oat milk. I'd definitely stop by again in the future and try a waffle. There's a grilled cheese shack in this same area that sounded great, too! I'm not sure if they're associated businesses or not. A cute spot for a quick pick me up.

    Decent amount of parking for Saugatuck and the waffles were great. I think they could use a vegan savory option.

    My friends and I stopped by Woosah while we were in Saugatuck for a bachelorette party, and we…read moreloved both the experience and the overall vibe. Inside the cafe is a gift shop filled with art, apparel, and fun local items like shirts and sweatshirts, which was fun to browse. You place your coffee order at a little window outside, at least during the fall when we visited; I am honestly not sure how it works in the winter months. When we arrived, there was a decent line of people waiting, which we took as a good sign. Clearly, this spot is popular. I had a hard time deciding what to order because everything sounded good, but I ended up choosing the Harvest Moon Latte ($6.25). It had a good mix of brown sugar and spice flavor, and I did enjoy it overall, but the espresso was slightly more bitter than I typically prefer, and the drink was not very sweet despite the brown sugar flavor. Ultimately, I am glad I ordered it hot because the whipped cream on top melted into the drink and added a bit of sweetness, which helped balance the flavor. The staff did an excellent job handling the crowd and keeping things moving smoothly, even with a lot of people waiting for drinks. Since we had a large group, we were lucky enough to grab seats at the long outdoor table with swing seats, which was such a fun and unique feature. The outdoor seating area, in general, is cool and adds to the laid-back, artsy vibe of the cafe. Overall, Woosah is a great stop for coffee with a fun atmosphere and unique setup. It is definitely worth checking out if you are in the area.

My pups slurped it right up - it was like pumpkin with some whip. I also got myself a lil 'latte which I enjoyed. There's ample outdoor seating and again, super doggo friendly. What a cute spot in the area and the staff was so nice. Drinks came out quickly as well.

Since I was in the area, I wanted to check it out. It's SO cute! Their seating area is all outdoors and I love the hammocks and swing seating - it's just so so unique. I got a iced coffee with their banana syrup *my personal fav* and my wife got the seasonal Campfire Coldbrew. I planned to get the banana bread latte, but they were having issues with their espresso machine, unfortunately. The employee working was patient and helped me figure out how to pivot from my original order. We both loved our coffees and it was so nice to be able to go down to the beach since it was so close. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a yummy coffee with a unique environment. Also always LOVE being able to support an LGBTQ+ owned business!

We went for a hike up Mt Baldhead to Oval Beach and back up. Afterwords we needed coffee and bathrooms. Outside Coffee came up on our search list, highly recommended, and open! While most other coffee shops nearby were closed, Outside Coffee was open. Thank you! Furthermore, the coffee was delicious. From drip coffee to cold brew to lattes, you can't go wrong. Everything is high quality and delicious! The staff in both the coffee shop and the outdoor shop were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. We loved perusing the outdoor shop goods while we waited for the coffee. Plus the bathrooms were clean and available. What more could you ask for? We now have a must-stop coffee shop next time we are in the area. Thank you for being available, delicious, and high quality, Outside Coffee! And see you next time!
