    OK this place is a riot. And not to mention divinely tasty. If you're a lover of coffee and unique little roadside stops, this is a must. My friend and I were in a hurry when we drove by this little business on the way to Wallowa Lake, Oregon, but we HAD to stop by on the way back. Walking into this little coffee shack, I immediately fell in love. If I were to run a dream business, it would be dang near identical to this place. I received a friendly greeting from the owner and her friends upon my arrival, and was even offered some samples of their delicious, fresh roasted nuts. After trying their chai and habanero almonds, sweet and salty cashews, and sweet butter pecans, I was oohing and aaahing....AND ready to wash it down with some much needed, mid-morning espresso. I decided on a coconut vanilla iced latte and stood nearby to watch her craft my masterpiece. After a few short minutes, it was ready. She even gave me a little shot of whipped cream on top--no charge. I must've looked like a kid in a candy store as I reached over the counter with both hands and eyes glazed over to receive my 20 ounce prize. And DANG was that thing good. There are no words people. Quality coffee--I guarantee it. And to make things even better, the owners lives in an adorable little cottage right behind the shop, and walk down to work every morning. The place even has an outhouse beside it complete with a bell that rings when you flush the toilet. So fantastic! This place can't get much more perfect. That's why I gave it a 5-star crown. If you're ever in a 60-mile vicinity of this place, stop in. You won't be disappointed.

    We loved this place! Adorable little roadside attraction. The photo op with their namesake is too good to pass up. It makes me smile when I think about. Thank you for being a bright spot along our journey to the Hells Canyon.

    Sitting inside this unique, amazing coffee shop in Lostine, OREGON. :-)

    Great coffee and customer service. We had the breakfast burritos as well. They tasted delicious and homemade.

    The chai has powder clumps and is insanely sweet despite being "sugar free." Haven't tried their coffee yet though.

From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by shelves stocked with an impressive selection of high-quality organic groceries, fresh organic produce, bulk foods, herbs, teas, and natural supplements. Whether you're looking for gluten-free options, vegan staples, or hard-to-find items like salt-free snacks or specialty bulk grains, they have it all. (We definitely are not vegan but it's there with everything else) The focus on organic and locally sourced products really shines through, making it easy to shop guilt-free and support sustainable, healthy choices. This is our first choice when looking for organic food in Union County. Buying and consuming organic food has improved our quality of life. The largest life hack I can share is to stop eating processed garbage food. Eat real food and know what you eat is actually good for you. Everything you consume does affect your health. Also consider fresh milling your grains and make your own bread. It's easy and you can make bread for weeks by freezing half loafs. The smoothie bar is pretty cool as well.

    Very happy to find a dedicated GF option place to eat. The Americano coffee was good. I had a…read moredouble Eggs Benedict It came with no sides or garnishes. You get two halves of a GF English Muffin. Each half was layered with wilted spinach, a thin slice of sandwich ham (you could see the dark of the spinach through the ham), a tomato slice, the poached egg. Both halves were then covered with hollandaise and a sprinkling of parsley. Flavor-wise it was just okay. Nothing to set it over the top one way or another. It was plated on to cold plates. I watched as my plate was assembled and then sat on the counter while a single Eggs Benedict was assembled and then a Mama's Muffin sandwich was assembled. I told my table mates my Benedict has been sitting there for several minutes and it's going to be cold. Sure enough it was delivered with cold hollandaise and Luke warm egg. I asked to have it popped in the microwave to heat it up because it was cold. I think she gave it 30 seconds and then served it stating any more time might "break" the sauce. So I ate a cold eggs Benedict. I ate all the first one (then remembered to take the picture) and then ate most of the second one. Timing for cooking needs to be addressed to ensure customers receive hot food. Maybe a plate warmer would help or just serve one at a time as the plates come up. Our final party member had to wait as his was served a few minutes after the rest of us. Again, this place has a great concept and if we were just getting coffees and pastry it would have been 5 stars but for the breakfast service, there were too many bumps for more than two.

They were delicious! This place is super cute with lots of seating options inside. The service was quick and prompt on a Saturday morning. I didn't get a chance to try the baked goods but they looked so good! Two full cases of GF goodness.
