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.

We loved the food, ambiance and service. Beyond that, we had a unique and heart-warming experience…read morewith the personal help we received from the manager, Sarah Filer. One of the members of the crew got extremely ill and needed to be taken to the emergency room at Friday Harbor, a 20-min ride away. The taxis were unavailable. When we asked Sarah if she knew of anyone we could hire, she volunteered to drive us to the emergency room and did so immediately. She refused to take any compensation. So we are big fans of Sarah and Lime Kiln Cafe.

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!

I'm genuinely surprised by the nearly 5-star rating based on our experience…read more We visited around 1:30 PM and were told that hot food was no longer being served. We then tried to order a salad, and were told that oh also that wasn't available. honestly felt like they just didn't feel like making anything. The only real option left was smoothies and açaí bowls. We ended up ordering three açaí bowls for the kids and a smoothie. At around $15 per bowl, the portions were shockingly small--only about a quarter full with five banana slice and three strawberries. one bowl was missing almond butter. The protein* smoothie couldn't be made properly because they were out of the protein powder. They offered to substitute collagen instead - not the same thing but ok. no discount. no acknowledgement. I understand that restaurants run out of items occasionally, but between most of the menu being unavailable, the outrageous price for the quality of the output, missing ingredients, and the complete lack of an apology or acknowledgment, this was a very disappointing experience.

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.

Luckily, the Roche Harbor store is a handy dandy little spot that carries an impressive selection of everything from canned food to veggies to alcohol. Are the prices the same as you might find at a mainland supercenter? Heck no. But, if you're in need of provisions, this is one of the few easily accessible (by boat) spots in the islands to stock up and be on your merry way. The cashiers here are also incredibly helpful and friendly - eager to answer any questions or even laugh at your lame island jokes!
