Very cute coffee shop/cafe. Stopped in with my daughter after her early-morning (chilly!) swim practice for hot chocolate for her, a cappuccino for me, and a muffin and a fritter. Everything was really good - the baked goods were warm and tasty. We live 45 minutes away, but we'll definitely stop by and explore the menu a bit more next time we're in town. read more

Sames & Cook - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Mount Gilead, Ohio

Stopped for a quick breakfast- Sames & Cook in Mt Gilead. An adorable little coffee shop downtown where they have table service. Our server was amazing-very attentive, friendly and informative of things on the menu as was the girl behind the counter when we went up to pay. The food was good, however, my iced latte was lacking something. read more

Sames & Cook - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Mount Gilead, Ohio

Charming decor. Large coffee menu. Food? Below average- small portions. Nothing special Service ? Not great. No one checked on us after food arrived. To refill my drink, I had to get up and go to the counter and was ignored by the young girls chatting with a boy. I was only acknowledged when I said "excuse me." And as the young girl got the pitcher out to pour my tea, she turned and talked to the boy again making me wait before filling my glass 2/3 full. We again had to get up to request our check. There was only 1 other table with people so they were not busy. Clueless on how to serve customers. Coffee? Maybe. Food? No I ordered the breakfast skillet. Two small biscuits, with sausage gravy ( average) 1 scrambled egg and bacon ( looked like less than 1 strip crumbled on top. $10. I expected more. Husband ordered a BLT on wheat. Again nothing special. Minimal bacon. Came with a side of chips. They appeared to be the little bits left at the bottom of the bag. Disappointing. We came here based on yelp reviews. Maybe people were charmed by the decor? Skip this place. read more

Such a wonderful small local coffee joint. Met my siblings to get coffee and do some work on our laptops. The place was so quaint and festive for the holidays. The coffee was really good. Loved the lavender latte. The service was great and staff was friendly. Would recommend and come back when I am in town! read more

A very nice little coffee shop in Mt Gilead. The service was great. The oatmeal cake and morning glory muffin were delicious. We will return. read more

I ordered a latte and was told they could not make any lattes today. I changed my order to an Americano and was told they could not make an Americano because they can't make lattes. An Americano is not a latte. I change my order to a regular coffee with half-and-half. After waiting for about five minutes, I was presented with a 100% empty carton of half-and-half. I asked if they had anything else because I could not use the Coffeemate sweetened pump creamer they had at the condiment station as I am a type one diabetic. I was told they did not have anything. Not a great experience for a "coffee shop." read more

This is the best unexpected coffee house in the universe. Okay but seriously it is incredible coffee that you can sip on for hours without it getting deluded because of coffee ice cube technology. Plus I hear they have good pastries and there are antiques and soaps and jewelry for sale. Comfy areas to journal or work or chill with friends. Friendly staff and prices that make how good the product is seen too good to be true. Seriously are you near middle of no where Ohio? Go to Sames and Cook read more

I came here based on Yelp! reviews. The decor is fine for reading/working while drinking your coffee. I can't review the coffee because there is a $5 minimum to use a card. My large latte was $4.25. I don't put flavorings in my coffee. I don't know if that would've brought the price to the required minimum. I didn't have cash-I very rarely have cash-so I wasn't able to order. This is almost 2020. Businesses need to recognize that cards, Apple Pay, and a plethora of other options are replacing cash for many people! Now I have to find a starbucks~~bummer!!! read more

From the website: Sames & Cook Hardware first opened in 1880 as Sames and Struble. Located at 33 South Main Street, Mt. Gilead, Ohio, this historic building has housed a variety of businesses over the years. Sames & Cook is a lovely coffee & tea shop that serves up yummy sandwiches, soups & pastries and houses an impressive selection of antiques in the front. The beauty of the building really comes through in the exposed brick walls and hardwood floors, the impressive wooden counter and the antique table and chairs in the seating area. Waling into this place really does give you sense that you're stepping back in time. I come here every time I return to Mt. Gilead and, without fail, I always see someone I know and strike up a conversation. Whether it's a childhood teacher, an old family friend or a former neighbor, this place really does sum up what a small town is all about and it always feels good to stop by, sit down with a big cuppa joe and enjoy conversation with the people I meet inside. read more

Almost a daily morning stop for me. Friendly people. Good coffee. Fantastic muffins in the morning and oatmeal cake. Breakfast sandwiches also. Open for lunch also. read more

Sames & Cook - Breakfast sandwich and coffee. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Mount Gilead, Ohio

It's a cute place, but the tables are cramped and the food isn't all that great. Still, it's the only "coffee place" in Mt. Gilead, so you can't be too picky. read more

Did you ever play "restaurant" when you were a kid? Where you set up a little table, write a basic menu with crayons, then cook up lunch for your sibling or friend. That's what this place feels like. Really lacking in the culinary skills here. To start, my large cappuccino was about 1 inch of coffee followed by 7 inches of tepid milk, then served in the biggest styrofoam cup i have ever seen. Come on. Get some cute cappuccino mugs for those who are eating in. It's the little things. Lunch for me was a small chef salad. It was definitely small and had, maybe, one slice of deli turkey on it cut up into little pieces. No egg, nothing to make it stand out. I was hungry when I left. My daughter, who is gluten free ( there are two items on the entire menu she could order), had an omelet. And that is all that she got on her plate. An omelet. Not a slice of melon, no yummy seasoned potatoes, nothing. Eggs. There is no attention to detail here regarding food presentation. My dad and his wife ordered panninis which looked unimpressive. I picture melty cheese oozing out of the sides of a perfectly toasted sandwich. Not here. Also, No sides included with sandwiches here, just a sandwich on a plate. Thats it. Did I mention this took 40 minutes to prepare? I guess when you are in a blink of a town, you can do what you want, but I wouldn't waste my time here again. And that is sad, because It has so much potential. The owners here would do well to check out the Morgan House in Dublin, Ohio to see how a shop and lunch/tea room is supposed to run. read more

My mom moved back to Mt. Gilead & the last time I visited I made it three days before I HAD TO HAVE some espresso, so we took ourselves out for coffee & desert. Everything was yum! It was a cute place to poke around at antiques in a nicely refurbished space just off the square. read more

Wonderful little coffee shop. So cute inside and the staff is so friendly. Great coffee and assortment of delicious breakfast choices. Love they offer small serving sizes, too. We also bought delicious muffins to take home. So yummy! read more

This place is downright adorable. Housed right on Main Street (on street parking is available directly in front) in one of the typical historical buildings in the row - the front is a quaint antiques shop and the back is a small restaurant/coffee shop. Due to the impending Christmas season - the decor was decidedly holiday inspired - and the china our lunch was served on Christmas themed as well! Our waitress knew everyone in the shop - so service was a bit slow but in a way that let you know she'd pay attention to your every word and that your dining experience would not be rushed - and actually enhanced the experience. We had half panini's (which were amazing and featured their 'special sauce') and Mac & cheese (which was reminiscent of the kind my Grandmother made - hearty and comforting). The dining area walls are decorated with whimsical and clever joking placards with funny sayings that give you plenty to look at - and we browsed the antiques while waiting for our coffee (they carry an impressive artisan line). All in all - perfect for a quaint lunch or breakfast - seating is limited but well worth the wait! read more
