We went there for breakfast this morning- got the avocado toast and mushroom cheddar quiche- the avocado toast was solid; nice spice level and added an egg to it. The mushroom quiche was bad- doughy crust that leaked into egg mixture, almost no egg or cheese at all- the mushrooms were so small and the whole thing tasted like flour or uncooked dough- it came with greens and a vinaigrette- the vinaigrette tart and that's all we ate from that dish- the quiche went in the trash as I didn't want to take a chance at eating raw egg or dough- worth another shot but not for quiche- read more

After hearing excellent reviews from friends I was left nothing but disappointed upon visiting PugFish this morning. One female staff member on the cashier was extremely cold, rude and unfriendly towards us. Having travelled a long distance in the early hours of the morning, she pushed for us to sit outside in the rain. When we asked if it was cold outside to sit in the rain she replied with a rude 'ok' and failed to answer the question asked. Our coffees were absolutely disgusting. Possibly the worst coffee ive ever drank. Extremely unsatisfied with the service & coffee. Food was middling. Will not be returning. To the nice guy who thanked us upon leaving, thank you for being kind to us, unlike the rest of the staff. read more

Cutest little cafe in the back of Spellbinder Books. Ordered the stuffed waffle breakfast sandwich. Great spot.

We just found this great little cafe in the back of the Spellbinders book store. it was perfection on every level, food delicious, quaint atmosphere and fast, friendly service. My husband had the eggs on avacado and I had the avocado, lettuce and tomato sandwich on sourdough toast. it came with mixed greens with a gently sweet, vinegarette dressing. Their breakfast and lunch menu was more extensive than one would think walking into this special cafe. I've never done a yelp review but just had to get the word out on this lovely gem of a cafe. read more

Ordered the Avocado toast and it is the best I ever had they use fresh avocado rather than a pre-made smear and really fresh ingredients. A good vegan option! read more

Egg and cheese panini with ham and red pepper sauce: I found everything about this panini to be perfect. I am always a little sad ordering sandwiches like this because either the meat is too dry, or they don't put enough of one item. However, this panini was proportioned PERFECTLY. every bite was better than the last lol. Smooth and warm in the inside with the amazing panini bread crisp on the outside. Tuna melt sandwich: I was worried about this one as well since a lot of places can have some dull tasting tuna, but not this place! The relish, celery and whatever else is it in tasted amazing. I believe they have a secret recipe they make themselves. pls get a panini here if ur stoppin in bishop. read more

Disappointed with customer service, we were asked to sit outside despite the fact that it was raining... I then received a half filled coffee which had a taste resembling what I can only imagine dirt to taste like. Food was overpriced for the quality and quantity received leaving me disappointed overall with my experience here. Would not recommend to a friend :( Female staff made better looking coffee than what I received however they lacked in customer service and basic interaction skills while the male staff member was more pleasant to deal with but served me my coffee which could have been mistaken for a shit in a cup. read more

Amazing service with some mixing and matching of various vegetables. We are picky eaters and we were very accommodated. Ended up with a scrambled egg with avo, turkey, olives, tomatoes and wheat toast. Awesome breakfast. . read more

This place is such a little gem. I had the waffle sandwich and it was surprisingly delicious! I am a bit of a coffee snob and the coffee did not disappoint! We will definitely be coming back here again. read more

Pupfish is a super cute cafe in Bishop, located right behind the Spellbinder bookstore. The breakfast sandwiches hit the spot. We were in town for a day hike and the egg and cheese panini with avocado was the perfect meal to start my day. As with anything avocado, it was a little messy, but worth it. The coffee is great too - they make a solid cappuccino. The cafe itself is nicely decorated with cute pictures on the walls, and the staff is really friendly. My only note is that the entrance can be elusive, unless you go through the bookstore, or you know to check the back of the building. Regardless, this is a great stop for a sandwich or a decent cup of coffee in the Bishop area. read more

Good coffee. More of a coffee shop with a couple of extra dishes. Not great for groups, especially in the Bishop heat. Main waitress who took our order at the front was rude and not very welcoming. The high points: waffles and coffee The low points: service, small menu read more

Every time we stay in the area for trips, we always go here for breakfast! Their avocado toast is the best. It just tastes so good atop their sourdough bread and drizzle of olive oil. It is not a small meal and will leave you full! My son had it with the salmon, me with egg and my husband with egg and mushrooms. They are generous with the avocado and leave it chunky on your toast. On top of the food, service is always great! They are always so nice and friendly. I'm so happy they are still around after the pandemic! read more

My niece lives in Bishop, and I really owe her one for introducing me to this cafe over Easter weekend. I loved the avocado toast to which I added feta and kalamata olives; sourdough bread comes from the Great Basin Bakery, and I found its crunch and subtle taste blended well with the creamy, ripe avocados. I enjoyed it so much that I showed up the next day on my way out of town to order the liege waffle to go. Freakin' Friday, what a sweet delight! The servers were friendly, but not cloying, and the attached bookstore is the perfect after meal treat. I'll be back. read more

So glad we found this place! It's a little hidden but it's so good. The gluten free sandwiches are amazing, and the staff couldn't have been more friendlier or kind. This will be my go-to place whenever I'm in Bishop! read more

This was an excellent place to stop at if your passing through bishop for lunch! The food was great and service was excellent! These ladies make you feel at home! We were excited to try their waffles but were out at the moment. I decided to get their turkey panini and added avocado it, was delicious! My only criticism about this place is that their lunches are more like snacks. Very cute and tiny paninis but not enough to fill my boyfriends hungry stomach. I wouldn't know hot flat my panini would be without the inch of added avocado I put in. Also the salad was lacking dressing/flavor. I did appreciate the freshness though! read more

Pupfish Cafe, while off the beaten path, is worth discovering for oneself. I've ordered the mocha twice thus far. The almond milk substitution turned out to be a wise choice, considering that it gave the mocha a satisfying hint of almond flavoring. Also, if you can, try their Liêge waffles. These waffles are richer and have a caramelized sugar coating that leaves your mouth tantalized. They're also far superior to the plain American waffles! Just be sure to find them behind the local bookstore, Spellbinder Books. It's worth the effort! read more

Prices is are fair, the food is tasty, and the staff is very nice. They delayed a drink order once and asked to provide a complimentary one of choice. I politely declined. We have a "usual" brunch order now: the panini sandwich + soup combo. For $8.95, you get a hot panini grilled cheese (extra $ for turkey/ham and avocado) and soup du hour (usually tomato bisque) We usually make a visit at least once during a climbing trip. The Nutella mocha is pretty tasty also. read more

What a hidden gem. We wanted to stop by Bishop for breakfast before heading home on President's Day from Mammoth. E-mailed the business to make sure they would be open. Got a response right away from Janette (owner). Love supporting "mom and pop" businesses. Food was excellent. We had 8 in our party and everyone loved what they ordered. My son is a picky eater and he thoroughly enjoyed his grilled cheese and tomato soup. We ordered two portobello paninis (one gluten free for my daughter). They were able to customize hers with ham too. They can make most of their sandwiches gluten free which is a big plus. We all enjoyed our specialty coffees. Well balanced and not too sweet. Oh...don't forget the waffles. Very light and complemented my Mocha coffee. Keep up the great work. read more

We stopped here for lunch during our drive home from Mammoth Lakes. I ordered the Egg, Cheese, and Avocado Panini and my boyfriend ordered the Mushroom Feta and Avocado Panini. They were soooo good!! The different spreads they have are great with the sandwiches. Well worth the $7-8 per sandwich in my opinion. And it's connected to a cute bookstore which is convenient for any book lover. We will definitely hit up Pupfish Cafe the next time we pass through. read more

The Pupfish Cafe is located in the back of a bookstore. We ordered sandwiches and eggs for breakfast, and it was all good and fresh, and a comfortable place to hang out for a bit. I noticed that the waffles were very popular, with most of the people ordering those in the morning, so next time, we might try that. Locally roasted coffee too, although I don't drink coffee personally, so I didn't try it. read more

A new cafe located in the back of Spellbinder Books on Main Street. We stopped in for lunch after church one Sunday, and had a great meal. I had a salad and 1/2 tuna salad sandwich. The bread was fresh, and the veggies were very crisp and flavorful (great tomatoes!). The dressing was also top notch. I had iced tea to drink, and it wasn't just Lipton's - you could actually get a very nice tea flavor, which is a nice change from most fast-food iced tea drinks. We're definitely heading back again. It's worth stopping by and having a meal! read more

Totally made me and my two young girls feel comfortable and welcome. read more

Stopped by this place on the way home from Mammoth to LA. Its a small cafe hidden away in the back of a bookshop. I ordered the portobello mushroom panini that came with a side salad & I also got a side of their waffles. Panini was absolutely delicious & the portion sizes were pretty good for lunch. The waffle was Belgian style which was warm and crispy. Perfect for a little desert if you're craving something sweet. 10/10 recommend if you're looking for a quick, savory bite in the area. read more

This place is amazing and every time I drive through Bishop, I try to stop. Their avocado toast is so yummy and they are very generous with the amount of avocado they give you. In my most recent visit I got the portobello mushroom panini with no feta cheese since I'm vegan and it was fantastic. Service is great and they are very friendly. Highly recommend. read more

This was a great spot with gluten free options. It is located in the back of a book store. A hidden little gem. Worth the trip.

Drinks are yummy food is ok. Very limited options and they use a microwave for some items which threw me off.

Decent service. The food is bad. They don't have a kitchen and microwave my eggs what I ordered. I would never go back to this place. read more
