Good portion sizes. My go to drink every where is a London fog. I drink at least one every day with oatmilk and sugar free vanilla. I ordered this exact drink here and it was incredible. I had to go ask what brand tea they use Steven Smith tea maker is the brand. It's so yummy!! Friendly staff, they gave us the wrong kind of egg bites the first time and it wasn't a hassle to have it fixed. You can order to go orders at the back walk up window. If you want to eat there just walk around to the front. Lots of seating outside and some inside as well. Great view cute apparel. Clean bathroom.

I grabbed breakfast at Riptide Cafe while visiting the San Juan Islands and really enjoyed it. I…read morehad the avocado toast, berry blast smoothie bowl, and a latte. Everything was fresh and delicious. The smoothie bowl was especially good, packed with berries and a nice crunch from the granola. It is a little on the pricier side, but that's kind of expected given the location right by the pier. Overall, a solid spot if you're looking for a good coffee and something healthy to eat while taking in the view.

Got the salted blackberry and the vanilla latte, both iced and with oat milk. Decent flavor profile for each drink, though the espresso was a little bitter. Overall good visit with a nice ambiance in the cafe, enjoying our drinks and watching boats in the harbor.

This place is a charming cafe located in Friday Harbor…read more The food and drinks here were absolutely spectacular. We ordered a few lattes made with their in-house syrups, and every single one of them was incredible. We loved them so much we went back for them again and again over the weekend we were there. We also tried their chorizo burrito and donuts, which were both outstanding. I honestly want to go back to the island just to eat here again! The ambiance of the place is awesome. It is super kid-friendly outside, featuring a wonderful yard with plenty of toys and things to do, which makes it incredibly relaxing for families. To top it all off, the staff was incredibly nice, welcoming, and helpful throughout our visits. I highly, highly recommend checking out Medio Cafe if you are anywhere near the San Juan Islands. It was so good, and it's an absolute must-visit spot that we will definitely keep coming back to!

After noticing that two couples who arrived after us had already been seated, I went back inside to ask about our table. The staff seemed a little irritated by the question, which wasn't a great start to the experience. The waitstaff was very attentive and friendly throughout our meal, which I appreciated. However, it took quite a while for our food to arrive, and when it did, it wasn't very hot. I ordered my eggs over medium, but they came out overdone. From what I observed, the kitchen and counter staff seemed somewhat disorganized, which may have contributed to the long wait and cold food. I've heard mixed reviews about this place, and based on my visit, it seems like your experience may depend on the day. It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great either. There are definitely some positives, especially with the waitstaff, but overall the experience fell short of expectations.

Each pastry was great but the highlight was the berry cheese danish. We also really liked how the apple danish wasn't extremely sweet and the texture of the carrot cake muffin. The bakery also has coffee and pizza available, but we didn't try any of that. Seating wise, there's both indoor and outdoor seating available for guests and water on tap. The ordering process was smooth but we sat, bussed, and served ourself which was fine.
