    Another nice coffee shop. I stopped here on the way out of Boone for a coffee for the road. I ordered an iced dreamsicle (orange) latte. It was definitely interesting, probably not my favorite but not bad by any means. A bit steep ($7) after tip, but I guess you can't really even get a hot drip anywhere for less than $4 so I can't complain too much! The shop itself is really clean and cozy, there is an upstairs area too where I sat for a bit while enjoying the first few sips and watching passersby on the main street below., I think next time I would try a different flavor and definitely get a cookie and/or ice cream.

    Ice Cream Sandwich

    This location is at the end of busy main street Boone. Parking is a little small and tight. The two staff who were working greeted us and were pleasant. My wife and I each ordered an ice cream sandwich. The cookies were good as well as ice cream. Sandwiches come wrapped in paper, in a boat and includes a wooden spoon. I felt ice cream was a little soft and melted quickly. The value is good. To me it's a novelty to spurge on every once in while.

    I think this is good well priced desserts! First, the prices are good! The cookie sandwich is about $5 and you get two cookies with ice cream. The cookies are good and so is the ice cream. Also, I like the atmosphere! The people working here were really nice. And the seating is nice too! There is seating on the first floor, a second floor loft, and outside on the roof.

    Very small but mighty place I ended up getting a hot peppermint mocha which was very good! Loved the upstairs area as well

    Lots to choose from

    Blue Deer was on my must do list during a recent trip to the mountains after seeing them on Instagram several times. They have a decent menu with plenty of cookies, ice cream, and other drinks to choose from. After several minutes of indecision I ordered the gingersnap cookies and peppermint ice cream since it's the holidays. The wait was worth it! The employee (nice college kid who'd been doing homework) handed me the biggest ice cream sandwich I'd ever seen! No joke, it was probably 3" tall. I attacked it with a spoon. The ice cream had lots of flavor and was rich. Put this on your list! I wish Raleigh had one.

    We were in Boone for a week visit, and our Airbnb host recommended that we try blue deer. We were so glad we stopped by! This location on King had just opened about two weeks earlier. On a hot summer day, this was the perfect place to stop by! The store is small, only one table and a couple of bar seats downstairs. So with COVID-19, if there is more than one person in line, they might have to wait outside the door in order to social distance. But they do have an upstairs patio that the employees mentioned to us (we didn't get a chance to go up there and see it). The employees were very friendly and gave us their recommendations since it was our first time in the store. We both got their signature ice cream sandwich - two cookies with ice cream in the middle. We choose to do the standard chocolate chip cookies with vanilla ice cream. Delicious! The store also had a variety of coffee drinks. Would definitely recommend stopping by here if you are walking around downtown Boone!

    It was absolutely delicious ice cream. The girls working were so helpful and nice with our questions about the menu and the area. Will come back!

    I have mixed feelings about this place…read more We stumbled upon this place while walking down sides streets, after having a not so great breakfast elsewhere. It looked really cute and funky and I was looking to get a coffee to go. I noticed a small building that looked like a bakery and indeed had bakery goods and cupcakes inside. I went in, hoping to get a coffee and a cupcake. There was someone working behind the counter but she never looked up or said a thing to me. I thought maybe I shouldn't have been there, so I left. We went inside the building and finally someone asked if they could help us and they did go get me a coffee. We noticed there was a bar inside the larger building and my husband started chatting up the woman there (who I'm 99% sure was the owner) but she was super bitchy and not having any part of the conversation. That was enough for me (you don't me around? fine, I'll stay away) but for some reason my husband really found that bar charming and a few days later we went back. Luckily for us, Patrick was bartending that night! He was super friendly, and we spent the evening chatting with him. The drinks were good, and we did order dinner that we both enjoyed. He really made the night a fun one. If I was back in the area, we'd probably stop back in, and hope Patrick was working!

Like others have mentioned, the woman who answered was very rude and with an attitude. This was the conversation: "hi, is this the cupcrazed cafe in blowing rock?" "how can I help you" "what are your hours today?" "we're not open" "so are you guys permanently closed?" "We're not open" "okay, what time do you guys open?" "we're not open this weekend" "okay bye bye". For whatever reason, they don't want customers, and they don't want people to know when they're open. Wild if people think they can run a restaurant that way. You couldn't pay me to go there now

At the recommendation of one of the knowledgeable baristas, I ordered the maple cardamom latte, and it absolutely delivered. The maple brought a warm, natural sweetness, while the cardamom added a subtle aromatic spice that made the whole drink feel layered and intentional. It was comforting without being heavy. That paired perfectly with a cinnamon orange white chocolate scone -- bright citrus notes, gentle spice, and just enough sweetness from the white chocolate to tie it all together. The flavors played off the latte beautifully. I finished with an amaretto latte, which was strong on the nose with that classic almond aroma, yet surprisingly smooth and easy on the palate. Bold but balanced -- a great way to end the visit. Great coffee, thoughtful flavor combinations, and baristas who know their craft. Espresso News is absolutely worth a stop when you're in Boone.
