One of the BEST sandwich shops ever! We were spending our day in the UP and wanted a midday lunch…read more Fresh Coast is where it's at. A cute, cozy, immaculate eatery where you can have sandwiches your way. My group of four had a Reuben, a BLT, and two Turkey subs and there were nothing but compliments on the quality and quantity of fresh meats, freshly cooked bread and condiments. Next door is a food truck also owned by the same with sumptuous sounding seafood sandwiches and ice cream. This is a gem of an oasis in the UP. It also has a small selection of high quality Michigan souvenirs.

Amazing fresh sandwiches and cookies. Everything they sell is very good and priced well.read more

Their praline fudge is to die for! We loved this place and came back 3 times during our 5 day…read morestay! Some have explained to us that it is not "traditional" fudge, whatever that means. But if that is the case, then I must not like "traditional" fudge because this was one of the best I have ever had. We also had ice cream there during one of our trips, and my son said it was the best he ever had. I believe it was some sort of birthday cake flavor, or something with frosting mixed in. I took a bite and would agree that it was pretty amazing. We will be back in the area next summer, and I'm already looking forward to what I will try next.

Smell of bacon hits you as you walk inside…read more Staff are warm and inviting. They greeted us upon entry. Ordered a pumpkin butterscotch bar (made today), plain latter with oat milk, green mango tea and a Mediterranean turkey sandwich (multigrain of sour dough) for a shared snack. $21.41 They tend to run out of their cinnamon rolls first thing in the morning. No cinnamon roll. You can add cream cheese, PB and other toppings onto your baked goods. They do charge a CC surcharge. The pumpkin butterscotch is overwhelmingly heavy with the butterscotch chips. The pumpkin flavor is nice. It's a tad dry. Would like it better with chocolate chips instead. The latte with oat milk is good, the coffee is flavorful. The Mediterranean turkey was ok. The multigrain was extremely hard, the kind that will tear up your mouth. Not a lot of hummus to it. It's good it has the yellow peppers or it would be really bland and tasteless. The green mango tea is good. Good flavors. Perfectly steeped. It's quiet in the seating area, louder hearing the staff's conversations in the back kitchen area.

Went there two days in a row and the service was great. I didn't know they were closing and they…read moresaid they could make me something and I wasn't in a rush. I ordered and left because they were kind enough to make something 3 minutes before close. The coffee is always fresh and hot. I love the leather couches they're comfortable. Definitely worth the stop. :)

Three stars for the black coffee, and five stars for the hot chocolate…read more My child wanted a hot chocolate, and fortunately, Lucky Bean has a kid-sized cup. (It's not on the menu, but they do have a size smaller than 12 ounces -- just ask.) When the people behind the counter learned that the hot chocolate was for a child, these considerate people took the extra step to make the drink a little cooler in temperature than normal. And I didn't even have to ask! Because, you know, kids can't tolerate any type of food or drink that isn't tepid. I appreciated that thoughtfulness! I ordered a black coffee, and unfortunately, I didn't like it at all. It tasted burnt and like hot prune juice -- just not good. I'm sure the coffee tastes good in drinks with milk and sugar in them, but as a black coffee drinker, the black coffee needs to stand on its own. Lucky Bean is located off the main drag, in a cute little neighborhood. The inside of the coffee shop is tight -- there is barstool seating by the window, but mostly, this is a to-go coffee shop. It's small, and you can't really stay and drink your beverages here.

What a lovely little local coffee shop tucked away on Market Street! Ever since *that* major coffee…read morechain opened on Main Street a few years ago, the number of local coffee shops on Mackinac Island has shrunk from 7 to 2 (so says a local), so while it's tempting to get something familiar, there's no better time than on vacation to try something new! Plus, the locals love Lucky Bean, and you can't go wrong with a place that gets their stamp of approval. LB is a small shop with limited seating and standing room. I opted for an iced Sugar Loaf latte: white mocha, brown sugar and caramel drizzle. It was delicious! Highly recommend you swing by this place and stroll Market Street.

Stopping to get an oat milk latte, two shots only, hot, berry bowl, pumpkin spiced cider, cold…read more They do charge 3.5% to use a credit card. Order cost $26.27 The left most side of the shop is lined up with teapots and tea cups. The main counter spans from the left to right. The far right is the dining area. There is also a seating / dining area on the left side, looks brighter than the right side. Their tea pots and cups are cute. The fruit bowl isn't the ripest or most flavorful berries. Much of it is crushed and was not so appetizing. It was so-so. I ate the blueberries out of it only. The strawberries and blackberries looked a bit off. The oat milk latte wasn't too bad. If you get the to-go, do be sure to check the lid is on solidly. They do double cup and sometimes the lid can seem on, but may be obstructed by the double cups as seat it. They do have a surprisingly amount of pastries and donuts. The pumpkin spiced cider isn't too bad, not super flavorful, so, not a substantial amount of pumpkin spice to it. Again. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Considering it's the only cafe space along the main street on the Mackinaw island, apart from Starbucks, people look forward to a good cup of coffee and a croissant or a decent patisserie goodies.
