The service is fast and friendly, and the owner/manager is the definition of a people person--approachable, easygoing, and genuinely welcoming.

I absolutely loved the atmosphere of this shop. It has a very warm and welcoming feel, with tall ceilings that make the space feel open and airy. When I first arrived it was quite busy, filled with families laughing and enjoying their time together, which created a lively and friendly environment. As someone who is more introverted, the crowd was a bit overwhelming at first, but it eventually cleared out and became a very comfortable place to relax. The staff were also incredibly kind. Since I had never tried a macaron before, I ordered a rose macaron to taste, and it was absolutely delicious. They also gave me a complimentary sample of their coffee, which was excellent. It was the house blend. And the bags they sell are very reasonably priced. The café is very well priced, with drinks ranging the $5-8 mark, and the foods ranging $3-8- and the quality of the food and drinks are quite rich in taste! Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I will definitely be coming back.

I realized that the best pie is based on personal preference. This place came in a close second, but only because we prefer a crumble top crust and their pie has the standard pie crust. However, this place has so much more yummy treats that you'd be a full not to stop by and grab something. I've had their cookies, mini pies, and the brownie sandwich and the peanut butter sandwich. All were fantastic! My personal favorite is the peanut butter sandwich, it's like a nutter butter, but way better. Heaven in your mouth! They also have a section of Keto friendly desserts and biscuits that I haven't had a chance to try, but maybe this weekend! This place is awesome and the staff is super helpful and friendly. They also take credit cards.

I have gone to this bakery twice now and taken a sourdough class. Every visit has been wonderful…read more The staff is so warm and welcoming. They are located in the same shopping center as Super 1 and Ace Hardware. I like their coffee bakery shop is to the left of the parking lot and has ample spaces to park. The shop itself is very big and spacious. It includes lots of room for seating for different party sizes. The selection of pastries, breads and drinks make this an excellent place to visit. The prices are also very reasonable. I did also take the beginner sourdough class and had a great time. It was a small group and the instructor (owner) really took the time to answer questions, discuss methods and helped us perfect the techniques. Class took us through every step of the process and we got to go home with a starter and a loaf we cut. Since then I have made my own loaf using what I learned and it came out perfect. This is one of the best hands on classes in the area.

Absolutely worth the stop -- best coffee and pastries in Coeur d'Alene…read more We visited Evans Brothers Coffee (connected with Bean & Pie) on the last morning of our trip -- and honestly, it was the highlight of our café stops. The coffee was arguably the best we had anywhere in Coeur d'Alene: smooth, rich, and clearly made with care. You can taste the difference in the roast quality and technique. We also picked up two hand pies from Bean & Pie -- peach and apricot. The apricot pie was exceptional: perfectly crisp crust, sweet and slightly tart filling, and just the right balance of texture and flavor. It's the kind of pastry you remember long after the trip ends. What surprised us most? It wasn't crowded. This place deserves to be packed. It's a quiet gem with real passion behind the food and drink. Don't miss it

One of our local friends picked us up from the airport and immediately took us there, and now I totally understand why. We tried three pizzas -- the cheese, the bumblebee, and the sausage & mushroom -- and every single one was incredible. The kale Caesar was honestly one of the best salads I've had in a long time. There were four of us eating, and we still walked away with leftovers. But the real star? The sourdough crust. I will genuinely be dreaming about that crust when I'm back home in California. Perfectly chewy, flavorful, and unlike any pizza crust I've had before. If you come to Coeur d'Alene, this spot is an absolute must-try.

The shop has these large sliding doors that open the area to the outside, so it feels like the entire place is under a covered patio. There is plenty of seating both inside and outside. I love their variety of food, which includes sandwiches, pastries, and a great variety of macarons. If you love lattes with flavor, they have a wonderful variety of flavors as well. My go to was the latte with mocha and hazelnut flavor. Sandwiches were delightful too. They can serve it to you warm or cold. Their ceramic mugs, plates, and silverware were super cute. Nice place to enjoy a cup of good coffee and snacks.
