    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice view of the water and ferry, good ambiance[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and the lox bagel is stuffed with salmon. Love it! Only critique is the Match tea latte was little heavy on the milk.

    Salty Fox Coffee is right by the ferry. The location is so convenient to grab a bite to eat or get a drink while waiting in line to board and it's close to town where you can stop by while exploring. [[HIGHLIGHT]]You can order inside or outside at a window. There's tables both inside the cafe and outside depending on your preference.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Inside, they had not only Salty Fox Coffee merchandise for sale but also items from local artists. I asked about the pineapple green tea and I appreciated their honesty in how they haven't tried it. I ended up ordering it and it was alright. It was more tea forward than pineapple. I did get a coconut cold brew the following day and that was great.

    The chai is soooooo good (if you like a little spice!) I should have gotten a larger one. I thought it was kind of weird the sausage breakfast burrito had andouille sausage, I was expecting breakfast sausage. The breakfast sandwhich was very good, but I wish the eggs were fresh instead of the prepackaged kind. Super convenient location, just steps from the ferry parking.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Super charming coffee spot in an old house with great views of the harbor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Rustic old school vibe inside, some outdoor tables as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Got a solid cappuccino with a nice, fluffy blueberry muffin; fast friendly service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Pleasant spot right in the middle of downtown Friday Harbor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I had the best gluten-free chocolate chip cookie in existence. And you wouldn't ever know it was gf! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is cute, convenient to the harbor, and has exquisite views from the tables outside on the porch.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The only problem is that nothing I saw on labels or menus said one word about gluten-free, but I asked since I had heard about the cookie, and sure enough, she had a stash behind the counter.

    Ordered an Americano and a blueberry muffin at the outdoor counter. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service was quick, vibes were good (a few tables and chairs outside), and I'd definitely come back![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute little coffee shop in Friday Harbor![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We had the Nutella croissant this morning with an iced caramel macchiato and a double espresso shot and it totally made our morning. It's always nice starting the day with good strong caffeine. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is so cute and so chill.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Loved it!!

    I am not much of a coffee person but my gf is and ended up at this place in the morning I tried Matcha Latter and it was really really good. I was not expecting to find something that good here in Friday Harbor. The matcha was bitter - like nice bitter. They definitely put too much of sugar, I would have preferred less. As for the coffee it was okay based on her review. Ambience is super cool - good nice people working here. Good service.

    I was pretty disappointed with this spot. The woman at the register definitely put the "salty" in "salty fox". I asked a simple question about the matcha and she was so annoyed. Then she made a weird comment about my order. The coffee was mediocre too. I'd go elsewhere next time.

    Stopped here before the ferry came (super great location) and glad I did! I got the matcha lemonade which is something I've never seen before. It slightly tasted like matcha and liked how refreshing it was (but think I'd just order the regular lemonade or a latte next time). I also got the "everything cookie" which has coconut, chocolate chips, and macadamia nuts. The cookie was delicious but a bit too sweet and can easily be shared. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have a few local products such as cups and cards they sell and a decent amount of seating![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If you're waiting for the ferry or just got off it, this is a great place to stop.

    Enjoyed my latte from the cute little coffee shop in town. This place is located right when you exit the ferry. They have a lot more than just coffee!

    Overhyped in my book. Coffee was very bland and not great flavor. Breakfast was just ok.

    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.

After noticing that two couples who arrived after us had already been seated, I went back inside to ask about our table. The staff seemed a little irritated by the question, which wasn't a great start to the experience. The waitstaff was very attentive and friendly throughout our meal, which I appreciated. However, it took quite a while for our food to arrive, and when it did, it wasn't very hot. I ordered my eggs over medium, but they came out overdone. From what I observed, the kitchen and counter staff seemed somewhat disorganized, which may have contributed to the long wait and cold food. I've heard mixed reviews about this place, and based on my visit, it seems like your experience may depend on the day. It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great either. There are definitely some positives, especially with the waitstaff, but overall the experience fell short of expectations.

Our party of three visited for lunch at noon on a Thursday. Since we had a reservation, we were seated immediately at a lovely table right by the window. The atmosphere was great, and the staff were incredibly courteous and friendly throughout our meal. We initially thought about starting with some small plates, but we were so eager for seafood that we jumped straight into the entrees. We weren't disappointed: Bouillabaisse: This was our first time trying this dish, and it was the highlight for us. It was incredibly flavorful--exactly what we were craving. Spicy Prawn Mac and Cheese: It definitely lived up to its name! It wasn't "blow-your-head-off" hot, but it had a perfect, noticeable kick that really elevated the dish. Blackened Cod Tacos: These were fantastic. The cod was perfectly prepared and worked so well with the rest of the taco ingredients. We also enjoyed a couple of non-alcoholic drinks that hit the spot, though I'll admit that since I'm writing this a couple of weeks later, I forgot to snag photos or the specific names of the drinks! They also have a really nice patio area if you prefer dining outdoors. Whether you're a seafood lover or just looking for a great meal with a view, this place is a must-visit!
