I ordered a banana waffles with a side of scrambled eggs and bacon. The eggs were perfect, the bacon was great and the waffle was amazing. It had bananas on the inside only and though it would've been nice if it had some additional banana slices on top with some whipped cream, I did literally get what I ordered! This place doesn't give off "above and beyond" vibes, it's all straightforward. This place is the epitome of "what you see is what you get" and I got what I got, and what I got was good!

I started the day with a toasted bagel with cream cheese. I thought it was going to be jalapeno cream cheese but it ended up being cream cheese topped with jalapenos. Okay, different but still good. Lunch was a ham and cheese sandwich that was nicely loaded and served with fabulous kettle chips. Filling and inexpensive. Wifi worked well and the place was quiet enough all day that I was able to work easily. A few Zoom calls here and there, comfortable. I would absolutely return to Dam Cafe.

It looks and feels so whimsical with the water from the nearby river flowing, and the trees providing that wonderful shade as the wind blows. This is a perfect place to come to and relax either by yourself or with friends. The coffee here is so good! I had the rose latte and it was one of the best coffee's I've enjoyed in a long time. I also went ahead and bought a pound of their decaf locally roasted coffee for my mom. It's water processed instead of using chemicals to remove the caffeine. She loved it. The shop inside is so beautifully curated you feel as if you're in a museum. If you've ever been to an Anthropologie store, it gives off similar vibes. They offer some local artist goods, a lot of it coming from women owned businesses. Many of these beautiful items come with a hefty price tag though. Overall a great addition to the area, and especially a great place for a cup of Joe.
