    Dog friendly patio
    Bailey T.

    Super cute little cafe downtown! The atmosphere was great. We took our coffee out to the patio and sat with our dog. The patio was pet friendly and they even had a water bowl for the dogs! They had a pretty big menu with lots of options and a good selection of pastries and sweets. The food was great. I had the sunrise bagel and my husband had a cheese danish. I had a hot butternut latte and he had an iced vanilla latte. The coffee honestly wasn't our favorite but the food definitely made up for it. Overall positive experience. I would come back!

    Salad

    Great spot with ample parking and outdoor seating. This is a counter order place with lots of soup-salad-sandwich options along with grab and go drinks and pastries. Staff were friendly and helpful. We really like the seating indoor and outdoor was comfortable and spacious. Food was good portion and fresh.

    We have loved walking over to cafe Julia during our stay in South Haven! It's such a nice space with both indoor and outdoor seating. Everyone that works there has been super nice each time we have gone there & they took my dairy allergy super seriously, which I appreciated! Their coffee is great and they have lots of different drink options, which includes a list of seasonal drinks not posted on their website! The coffee is strong, so consider that when ordering. Their food is also good - the NY style bagels are delicious! Highly recommend if you're staying nearby!

    Super cute place! Came in and was greeted right away. The barista that took my order was knowledgeable on all their drinks and food. The drinks were good and the BLT I had was delicious. The place was clean. Bathroom was clean. Good amount of tables inside for meet ups or studying. I ordered a London Fog, BLT and their granola cookie. The granola cookie was my favorite. It wasn't overly sweet and complimented my tea very well. The BLT was delicious, bacon was perfectly cooked. The bacon had a nice bite and enough chewiness. Most places overcook the bacon and it's too crispy. Would come back to this place again!

    The food was so delicious. We ate breakfast here twice during our stay in South Haven and were blown away both times. The service was amazing and friendly, even when the place was full. They even took the time to explain how they made some of the breakfast items.

    We stopped in every morning this week and it was always such a great way to start the day. Incredibly nice people, delicious food and pastries, great drinks. I loved the fresh lemonade and their iced teas. We went to quite a few places in south haven and this was my favorite. Fresh good food! Great atmosphere with several porches and patios. I loved the paintings on the walls as well!

    Carrot cake
    Taylor N.

    I come here a lot, so the food is always good. But this carrot cake is the best thing I've ever had in my life. The staff is always so amazing and nice. And the whole building just feels very homey and calm and beautiful.

    Red velvet cupcake

    We came to South Haven for the weekend for a bachelorette party and ending up coming here all 3 days! Everyone in the party enjoyed this place. There are delicious flavored coffees along with so many other options. The last day I bought a red velvet cupcake and wish I had more time to try more of their sweets! I tried the snickers iced coffee which I definitely recommend as my favorite. The staff were all extremely nice. When we came here on Sunday morning, we did have about a 30 minute wait to order and get our drinks but we learned you can order ahead online which would be something to consider for the next time we visit to avoid the long lines.

    What a surprise. I knew it'd be good, but was not prepared for HOW good it was…read more Casual, laidback ambience. Easygoing, friendly, attentive staff. Incredible food that I'm Gibbs dream about for a few more nights yet. I had the walleye, my fiancée had the pot pie (called something else on the menu; I forget exactly what). She only didn't finish hers because she eats like a bird, but I finished hers even after I'd inhaled mine. I came even describe the flavors (except to say the horseradish mixed in the potato top of the pot pie is inspired!) I will just say that each bite hit the sweet, savory, and salty notes just right all at the same time. Can't forget to mention: the service was lovely. Our server was very kind, personable, and relaxed, and she offered us great recommendations, and boy am I glad I listened. I can't recommend this place enough. I hear the James Beard nominations may be snooping around, and they'd be right to.

    My friends and I came here as our last stop on our little weekend trip and it was almost our…read morebiggest mistake. When we got here, we were very confused on how to order so the takeout people told us to go to the hostess at the front of the restaurant, so we did. Then when we got to the front, they said that the patio is takeout only so we had to go back. Whatever no big deal. We go to the back and we order. One of the baristas was not nice. She was wearing a mask and had her hair cut short. She just was not nice to us. Didn't want to give us mugs or silverware because we were eating outside... umm ok??? We are waiting outside for our food and we see that one of the waitresses is taking people to be seated on the patio.... Ummmm what? I guess the other barista (her name was Anna) noticed and started bringing us silverware, ketchup, salt and pepper. Normally that would have been reserved for people dining in but she felt bad that the hostess lowkey lied to us. We ended up giving anna a tip because she was just so kind to us even tho she wasn't a waitress or anything.
