    Tea and coffee
    Owen

    Amazing food, incredible service, wonderful atmosphere. Grilled cheese is the best in town. You can add kimchi on anything. Go here all the time because the owner is very friendly.

    Breakfast grilled cheese sandwich
    Carol H.

    We stopped in for a quick breakfast before hitting the airport. It was early, and we were the only people in the cafe. Food was great! Two of us ordered a breakfast sandwich; I think it was a grilled cheese breakfast sandwich on the menu? That was a hit, as was the two eggs and toast combo. Servings were substantial, but not too much, and there was plenty of room in the establishment for our baby stroller, which we had been having trouble with in some of the restaurants. Super cute place, bright and cheery, with a good menu for a quick meal. We'll definitely be back!

    went here for coffee and had excellent service. the barista was very funny and helpful. super happy they had oatmeal because my husband cannot have no product.

    They are doing a great job remaining a safe and clean environment for COVID. I only stopped in for a tea but will return soon to try out their food items. From the orders coming out of the kitchen it all looked fantastic!! I wish it was a bigger location for more seating.

    Came here a couple times now, the food was really good. I got the West Coast Wrap, my sister got the BLT. Both were really good, there was a decent amount of bacon on the BLT, and the warmth and creamy-ness of the wrap was amazing! For coffee, we both got iced lattes (with whole milk). They were nothing special. She got the Maple spice latte while I got the gingerbread latte. The gingerbread syrup was slightly bitter and overpowering, making it hard to enjoy the drink or to even finish it. I docked a star only for the suboptimal watery coffee. I could have made this with my espresso machine at home. Could be better. Maybe I'll try it with oat milk next time to make it creamier and more rich. I won't give up on you Slate, I'll be back for more wraps and yummy treats.

    Oatmeal pancake with bananas

    Enjoyed brunch here yesterday and everything was excellent! We had the cinnamon raisin French toast, breakfast BLT, and an oatmeal pancake with bananas. The strawberry smoothie was tasty as was the coffee and hot tea. We will return the next time we are in town!

    Açaí Bowl

    Cute spot along Main Street in downtown Lititz. We came for a lighter lunch, and I had seen that they had acai bowls which fit the bill. The acai bowl was just OK, a little thinner consistency than I prefer. I give them props for the presentation. Seating is limited, but our group of 6 was able to assemble a few smaller tables and make it work. I didn't find the service to be great, cashier wasn't all that friendly with our group, which ended up spending a pretty decent amount between the acai bowls, lattes and canned drinks.

    New owners did amazing job in reopening Slate Cafe. The vibe is super relaxed and the service great. A lot of menu options with many items made in-house. Will def be back.

    Large latte.

    We arrived to Slate at 11am, there was no line so we walked up and ordered two large lattes. The young man behind the counter interrupted me in the middle of my order to talk to the guy who had walked in behind me about some inside joke he and his co-worker had about decaf. He apologized for interrupting me, not a big deal, I shrugged it off and kept on with my order. Two large lattes with oat milk was $13.25. We sat down to wait for our drinks to be prepared, however, we noticed about 7-8 drink orders were fulfilled to customers who had come in AFTER we had ordered. After waiting till 11:25am, I finally walked up to the counter to ask for an ETA on when our drinks would be ready. The young man looked at me with a puzzled look and asked what I had ordered, I reminded him two lattes. He informed me that he must have lost my ticket. He apologized and the barista proceeded to make our order. The drinks were good however after waiting nearly half an hour for drinks I would have expected a refund or discount of some sort. Luckily it was Sunday and we didn't have a lot going on, however if this were on a work day I would have been quite cross. Overall I'm giving two stars as they made eye contact with us multiple times as we stared at them behind the counter talking small talk I guess assuming we were just there to enjoy the ambiance. Might give them another shot but with 5-6 other decent coffee shops around Lititz,it might not be for a while.

    Caramel macchiato

    I was so excited to try this cafe as I've been following them since their beginning on Instagram. I was a little disappointed for a few reasons. The location was much smaller than I expected they also didn't have as many food choices as I thought they did, which was fine but the food that was served was pretty lackluster. We went in and ordered and right after us a bunch of people came in so our order got delayed and they almost forgot two of our items which we had been waiting for as they started to help new patrons who had come in. The girl taking my order asked if I wanted my cookie warmed and I never got my cookie, the other girl realized it and then gave it to me but it wasn't warmed. I was asked if I wanted chips or fruit with my sandwich and for fruit thinking I would have a nice little fruit cup and I got a few grapes and one slice of orange. My sandwich was decent which was the spinach and goat cheese mostly because goat cheese is always a win. I didn't taste any spinach really. My friend got an omelette and I don't know how they cooked it but it looked fake it was too perfectly shaped and didn't seem to have anything inside of it. I give them kudos for being a cafe that serves food but the quality could be stepped up.

    See all

    The people here are nice enough but cannot make a proper latte. It's extremely disappointing when baristas aren't trained.

I get the tuna melt every single time, and listen... their tuna is unreal. Perfectly seasoned, not too mayo-heavy, toasted just right it's basically my emotional support lunch at this point. I also never skip the seasonal drink special. Today's was the apple chai-der and it was so cozy and delicious. Their drink specials always feel like you're sipping the current season through a mug. Zig's also has an entire cooler/freezer wall packed with soups, applesauce, and grab-and-go meals. My all-time favorite soup is the Tomato Pepper Jack absolutely phenomenal. If you see it, grab two. Trust me. The bakery case? Dangerous. Cupcakes, pies, whoopie pies, parfaits... it's basically dessert heaven behind glass. And then there's my holy grail: the Buffalo Cauliflower. It's a rare find, and when I spot it I buy it in full apocalypse-prep quantities. No regrets. Between the rustic vibe, great coffee, incredible baked goods, and comfort-food lunches, Zig's is one of those places you keep coming back to because it just feels good and tastes even better. Highly recommend!

My husband ate almost the entire shepherds pie by himself...he was hungry and it's good. I just finished eating a chocolate mint cupcake that was so tasty.

I was there at 4pm so I have found they are less busy at that time of day when I want to buy things to take home. If I lived closer to Zig's I would probably be there more often, but as it is, I am still thankful it's only a 30 minute drive from my home.

It's definitely a cute place - smallish, but with lots of character and good food. They have a no nonsense espresso machine and they made me an upside-down dry cappuccino without any hesitation. If I lived in Ephrata I could see this becoming my main go-to for my cappuccinos. Service was friendly but a little slow. It could be our timing was bad, and to their credit the cook warned us that our order (we split one burger) would take 30 or more minutes. That seemed excessive to us but who knows, maybe they just received 10 DoorDash orders right before we arrived. Times like this really separate the good from the great restaurants. Great service would have been to not only apologize, but to also offer us a free espresso drink or an appetizer or a dessert to hold us over. Instead we had to ask for water two or three times. Over all, our experience was enjoyable, but they should consider hiring one or two more crew members.
