Found ourselves on the Port Angeles waterfront today and stopped to grab lunch at Silver Lining Cafe. It's set right on the water and there are tables for outdoor eating, but even in the bright sunshine the wind made it too chilly to eat outdoors. We ordered 1/2 a turkey sandwich and 1/2 a salad. The salad they had was turkey cranberry with balsamic and cranberry dressings. The salad was nice. I esp usually liked the 2 dressings. The sandwich was on a dry ciabatta roll. The turkey, lettuce and tomato were fine but the dry roll spoiled the sandwich. If I go again I will try something else. The service is casual, order-at-the-counter. All in all it was fine for a quick lunch but skip the cold sandwiches. read more

My experience wasn't necessarily 4 stars but I don't want to give 3 simply because I didn't give the coffee a chance this visit and don't want to rate a coffee shop low if I didn't try the coffee. The menu is a bit much, there is a lot of options to the point where it's overwhelming. I got the lavender lemonade and it's just lemonade from a bottle with lavender syrup, which I don't know what I was expecting tbh. The drinks were too sweet but the view of the place makes up for it. I give it 4 stars because there isn't anything too bad and I didn't try the coffee. read more

Quick 5 min walk from the ferry line. Super friendly service. They have many very tasty pastry choices with a handful of gluten-free options. I got the Gluten-free coconut macaron. So fluffy it reminded me of a marshmallow. Yum!! They also have breakfast options with ham or bacon and cheese. They also have many great drink choices and alternative milks. And they had really great smoothies as well. The best part was excellent customer service! read more

I went to Silver Lining Cafe for lunch, and was pleasantly surprised that I could get a breakfast sandwich at that time. I picked my fillings of egg, sausage, provolone, extra onion, and pesto sauce. Extra veggies cost a little more. The sandwich was uncommonly delicious. I also got a cinnamon roll which was good, but I look forward to trying other choices. It would be beneficial if they had a printed menu that you could look at and not stand in the way of the counter. It would be easier to see as well. The view is nice and the breeze off the water keeps the place comfortably cool when the doors are propped open. read more

Perfect location and water view. Great staff. Sweet and savory baked goods, sandwiches and coffees. You really do get what you pay for. They even hold a game night every other Friday night. And small events for kids at holidays. read more

Upbeat. Friendly. Busy. Silver Lining Cafe is a spectacular cafe to drop by while you're waiting to board the ferry. They are located at the very back of the wharf. From coffee to smoothies to savory and sweet baked goods, their menu variety did not dissappont. Their drink specials menu was my favorite in particular. When I visited, it included lavendar flavor based hot drinks, which very much suited the local flavors since it's its lavendar season here. The staff were also very friendly and recommended their most popular order, which was their French vanilla lavendar latte with oat milk. I absolutely loved it. Wasn't too sweet. Wasn't too bitter. The latte was the perfect temperature and went down smooth and silky. I also got to try their bacon cheese jalapeño strudel. Got it warmed, to-go, and they were so kind to accommodate my request to cut it in half. This strudel was a big hit for me. If you need a space to hang out, the cafe offers plenty of seating options to choose from. Overall, you can expect to enjoy an exceptional cup of hot coffee, with a delicious baked good while basking in their natural lighting to enjoy the beautiful views of the port. read more

Amazing coffee. Turnovers are so good, especially the savory ones. Personal fave was the peanut butter scone/cookie.

It is a wonderful spot for anyone looking to enjoy great coffee, beautiful decor, and breathtaking views. Located in a scenic area, this cafe boasts a cozy and inviting interior that perfectly complements the stunning scenery outside. The coffee at Silver Lining Cafe is decent, with a wide range of options to suit any taste. The decor is also worth noting. The cafe is beautifully decorated, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The attention to detail in the design is impressive, and it's clear that the owners take pride in creating an inviting space for their customers. But perhaps the biggest draw of the place is the view. The cafe overlooks a stunning vista, with mountains, forests, or a beautiful body of water providing a gorgeous backdrop for your coffee break. Whether you're there to work or relax, the view alone is worth the visit. Overall, if you're looking for a great cafe in a picturesque location, it is definitely worth checking out. With excellent coffee, beautiful decor, and breathtaking views, this cafe has everything you need for an enjoyable and memorable experience. read more

New water front coffee shop with fresh homemade pastries! Great addition to the wharf and nextdoor to the great Art shop to puruse as well. Located right on the water, so you can Sip coffee and watch boats, birds and wildlife go by your table. The Scones and coffee cakes are lovely and reasonable priced. I esp. love the house plants and bookshelf that make this cafe cozy, interesting, complete with friendly staff. They even have a bike rack outside in back, so I can keep my eye on it, so makes a great expresso bike ride stop. We'll be back! read more

Very cute space but coffee was disappointing. Americano was overpriced and the barista stopped brewing the shots before they were finished. sour shots and too much sweetener, americanos should not cost as much as a latte. read more

Great coffee! Tasted amazing ordered a lavender latte. Great views and a small cute coffee shop with baked goods. No gluten free items available, and it did take about 15 minutes to get our coffee so it was slow, but still good. read more

Really liked the raspberry white chocolate scone here. Rich and moist on the inside, and slightly crusty on the outside. Sturdy. read more

Absolutely ridiculous stood in long line (totally fine) to order 6 sandwiches. We were told that they don't make sandwiches until 8. they miss everyone from the ferry and could make so much more money. there are no signs before you get in line saying "No food until 8 even though we are open, bakery items only!" they could have at least one gluten free bakery item. the two kids working were not the friendliest either. will never go back. read more

Really, really wanted to love this place. Great location and views. However, when we arrived at 7am looking forward to the breakfast sandwiches they pushed on FB, we were told they don't do them before the ferry leaves because it would be to busy. Whaaaat? We ordered coffee drinks-which were fine, but nothing I would go back for, and other breakfast-y stuff-which was partially heated in a microwave, before boarding the ferry. Next time we'll try the crepe place, or we'll sleep in a bit and just get breakfast on the ferry. So disappointing because the location and store is lovely. read more

Grab a cup of great coffee or delicious pastry here while you wait for the ferry! It's cute inside and the staff are lovely. The worst thing will be deciding what to eat! Everything we had was great! read more

The four plus star is for the nice people and the view... I am totally pleased to find a new place next to the ferry after being away these last couple years. I got a brewed dark coffee which was good and extremely hot! I also was pleased to see so many choices for breakfast... coffee cake, egg bites, and many types of breakfast croissants. I got an egg, mushroom feta and Swiss. Unfortunately it was underdone and completely soggy. I took a look at the others and realized they all were that way. Noticed that many of their items were undercooked. Hope they improve! The price for the croissant was 5.50, pretty high for what I received. read more

Needed a coffee while waiting in the ferry queue. Friendly staff. Clean store. Great coffee & lotus. Did not do any egg bites of baked goods. read more

There didn't seem to be any other good coffee shops in Port Angeles based on a quick search, so we thought we'd take a chance here because the small number of reviews seemed promising. We only got drinks here, so I can't say anything about the pastries. Brewed coffee was fairly bland and overpriced. The macchiato was poorly-textured (far too foamy) and only tasted ok. When I ordered it, the one person working that morning confirmed that I wanted a traditional macchiato (Starbucks has really ruined the term "macchiato"), so I was optimistic that a cafe where they would ask that would make a good macchiato. Unfortunately, not the case. Barista was very nice, but that was the best part of our visit here. read more

Loved this place so much! We went here multiple times during our stay. The service is great and the location is perfect to watch the sunrise from on the pier right outside the cafe. Definitely recommend!! read more

This relatively new cafe is a real find, right on the Wharf. Opens early for great coffee and other beverages , and the food is terrific. Love the small eggs and different add-ins "cups," while the coffee cake is tasty. Fresh squeezed lemonade goes well with variety of sandwiches. Easy parking and right off the Olympic Discovery Trail along the waterfront. Staff nice and friendly. We'll be back! read more

This is a really cool, locally owned coffee shop. It is located over the water with killer views of the ferry to Victoria and the Harbor. I have watched otters play in the water while sitting in this Cafe!!! Also tasty baked goods. The raspberry lemon loaf is my favorite. The owner creates her own recipes! read more

I had high hopes for this new bakery. I did make the mistake of taking a drink from elsewhere into the cafe because everyone wanted pastries and the others were ordering coffee too. The owner asked if I was going to order. I said yes- she said she couldn't be sure because I already had a drink and it looks bad to have drinks from other places in her cafe. I had no response. I felt like I had been scolded by my mother. I wanted to leave as quickly as I could and not go back- ever. My mom was actually with me and thought the owner could have made her point differently or let it go. The cafe's pastries and coffee were also mediocre according to those in my group. Nothing special. read more

Walked in and an older gentleman was ordering, me and my friend took a seat to wait until he was done ordering. We were interrupted less than a minute later by who I assume is a manager. She was extremely rude and snapped that we must buy something to stay. We explained that we had planned to and she ran to the back and was not seen again. Not the customer service I expected or wanted from this cafe. The blonde barista working the counter was very sweet, the tea was fine. read more

This place is amaaaaazing! Fresh coffee cake out of the oven and plenty of coffee options. Sat and ate all our goodies with a beautiful view of the harbor. Make sure you walk the the very end of the wharf to find it- you don't want to miss this! read more
