The food is fresh, tastes great, and comes out quick. Customer service has always been great and super friendly. As an Evansville resident I know several of the employees outside of work, and they're all really kind people. (I admit I may be a little biased!) I've visited with my parents, siblings, and friends, and never had a bad experience. It's a pretty small establishment but they've really made the most of it. There's a variety of seating options-- indoor and outdoor, with a nice view of the creek-- and the whole space is very beautifully designed. I've never seen it really busy, but it's possible I just happen to come during lulls. It's the perfect place to sip a drink and read or study. I'm so grateful to have a place like this in Evansville!

Some places are worth a detour. Others are worth a drive…read more Just Beyond The Willow firmly lands in the second category. Seriously - it will be well worth your travel time to check out this gold mine of a local java joint! This cozy little establishment sits in what used to be a gas station that locals say dates back to the 1930s. It's tucked into a quiet rural town, and from the outside you might not immediately guess there's a terrific little coffee stop waiting inside. We stopped specifically to try the coffee shop portion, Willow Bay Coffee. I was just hoping for some decent espresso and maybe a simple munchie to hold me over until an actual meal down the road aways. What I got instead was one of those "You have got to be kidding me" moments. The espresso drinks were excellent. I chose for just a basic Americano, which was definitely HOT and everything I had hoped for in a joe. However, the real surprise was the food. Sounding too good to pass up, I decided to order the Asiago Bagel with Ham & Swiss. It's was a $7 sandwich with a $15 taste. No exaggeration -- the ham was so flavorful I'd honestly compare it to Nueske's. They source locally and let me tell you - this is top tier tasting meat & cheese! This is nothing like what I was expecting from such a humble little shop - and it certainly surpasses anything I have had at even high-end coffee houses and most restraunts I have been to. SCORE!!! My wife decided to follow suit and ordered the sister menu item: their Turkey & Cheddar on gluten-free bread (she has Celiac disease). She reported the same "what the heck?!" taste reaction. DOUBLE-PLAY!!! As an aftermove, I ended up eventually leaving with a couple of muffins from the bakery plate for later: a Banana Walnut and Lemon Poppy Seed. I didn't actually eat any until later that night at home for supper. WA!!! No disapointment here, and they tasted just as good as they smelled earlier. GAME-SET-MATCH!!! While this isn't a dedicated gluten-free kitchen, Raquel ("Ray-Chel") clearly understands the medical issues with Celiac and will take all reasonable precautions she can if you ask. As always: Polite and understanding self-advocacy will always give you the best shots at polite, understanding and effective precautions from your business hosts. And speaking of Raquel -- she's the kind of host every small-town (and heck - ANY) café hopes to have: consumately professional, fabulously welcoming, and genuinely enjoyable to chat with. She is just down to earth Good People! Places like this are why I enjoy looking for local establishments when traveling, and am willing to wander off the main drags once in a while. You never know when you'll stumble onto a hidden gem. In this case, we hit the mine! Seriously - this place will be well worth your drive! If you stop in, tell her that, "show-and-tell husband" in the black cowboy hat sent you!

The best part about this establishment are the owners and their son that run it. They are friendly, and their desire is to please the customer. They have taken an old service station and transformed it into a clean, cute, & cozy place whether in the winter, or enjoy their deck in the spring, summer, or fall!

We stumbled upon Buttercream Bakery while in town for a basketball tournament. If the review were…read moresolely based on service and selection, it would be 5 stars, hard stop. The service was incredibly friendly, and amazingly fast, given we had a larger order and the place was fairly busy. There were plenty of options; from drink options/flavors, to bakery and breakfast items, etc. If you can't find something to order, that is completely on you because the choices are plenty. We opted for a couple of seasonal lattes, which were, unfortunately, very lacking in flavor. I typically order my coffee drinks half sweet, but this particular day I was wanting something sweet and flavorful so I skipped that directive, and was still disappointed. Bakery items and other drinks were good. There was some sort of market happening in the front of the store, which could have caused for more crowding/chaos elsewhere, but overall it felt like there was a lot of "stuff" everywhere. The seating area seems really crowded, but also didn't appear to have been cleaned in a while. There was a messy desk back by the bathrooms, and while I understand this is probably a busy work area for someone, it all just made me feel a little stressed out. Not a place I would feel relaxed to complete any work.

It just seems like it would be more natural to me to walk in at the ramp and order then continue walking into the store to pick up your drinks. Today I watched about seven people lined up on that ramp waiting to order before was mentioned that they have to go through the crowd of people waiting for their drinks to the other side to get in line to order their drinks. I just think it would cause a lot less confusion and maybe frustration of customers if you were to flip those two areas
