    If you're passing thru and need a little pick me up, this place is worth the stop before heading up to Lassen. The iced and hot coffees are great, there are lots of pastries (some of them made in house) and I had no idea there was such a large menu for breakfast sandwiches, regular sandwiches and salads too! Service was friendly and quick and they even have a drive thru window. I definitely recommend trying this place out. Just FYI: cash is king if you don't want to pay the debit/credit card processing fee. A lot of Shingletown businesses will pass the processing fee to you so if you don't want to pay the 3% or whatever, bring cash.

    Cute little coffee shop that sits along the 44 on the way into Lassen. Family run by the friendliest folks, they make a selection of sandwiches for breakfast, lunch, or brunch. Cool down with an iced drink - they make a good Mexican Chocolate Mocha. Plenty of great breakfast options - the Pesto Parm stands out with fluffy eggs and bacon, but the Biscuits and Gravy are also pretty great. Spicey Bowl is similar, to what you'd find in a sandwich, with chunks of fresh jalapeño to spice things up. They also have a case full of pastries, notably the Almond Danish and multiple muffins. I prefer the prepared food to the pastries, and their coffee concoctions are good. Stop by Higher Ground on your way in or out of Lassen. They make the best food in all the towns.

    Hidden gem! This is a great little coffee spot! Super nice people, the blueberry scones (especially if you get it warmed) are better than Starbucks'! It has a cozy vibe. The music is good but not super loud. Great spot to work from. They have a drink menu and breakfast/lunch food options (see pics). Multiple people came in just to have breakfast and chat. I will be back!

    It's a decent choice in Shingletown granted I be live this is the only coffee shop there besides the grocery store that also serves breakfast and coffee. I tried their latte, it was pretty delicious and not too sugary. Their breakfast burrito was not good, it had way too many tomatoes and was a bit bland. Their jalapeño bagel was delicious, and tasty. I wouldn't get a breakfast burrito again but I would the bagel sandwich. Overall, friendly staff, locally owned (I Believe) and super cute place. If I am ever in the area, I would try it.

    Excellent breakfast sandwiches and iced coffee. Comfortable atmosphere. Friendly staff. Convenience of wifi. Clean bathroom. Drive through.

    Spicy Bowl - it smells amazing!

    Amazing atmosphere, love the service and the food. When I opened up my spicy bowl, it smelled delicious! My chewy caramel frappe is fully blended and is perfectly sweet. They have a cute little 2-sitter area in the front. It's had an amazing small-town feel.
