Sugar Leaf Bakery, Cafe & Espresso - Cafes Near Me - Branson, Missouri

Place was decorated beautifully. Everything smelled delicious. Lots of fun flavor combinations. Cold brew was definitely strong. Maybe a darker roast then I prefer, but still good. Barista was not very friendly which is the reason why I gave it 3 stars. I went to another coffee shop later that evening and the barista was extremely kind and friendly. There are a lot of options these days, so I only encourage these baristas to put a smile on their faces (well..under your mask) and bump up that customer service voice. You might be the only kind encounter someone ever receives. read more

I was disappointed in the chicken salad. They said it was their best selling item, but I would never order it again. The chicken salad was just okay, it would have been nice to enjoy the pita cracker that was plated underneath the chicken. The cracker was hard as a rock!! My fork wouldn't t even break it apart. I did take it back, which I never do, but I thought maybe this one cracker got over toasted. He said no that was the way they were. Disappointed on my first trip there. read more

The chicken salad sandwich is awesome. They will substitute a salad for chicks which is great. The salad was very good and the dressing tasted like homemade. Dessert was a chocolate chip that was soft and tasty! The latte was very good. They made a mistake on another drink and quickly made a new drink. The service was good even though the place was busy. Everything looked clean and nice. Pricing was about what fast food prices are so why eat junk when this quality food is available? I will definitely return! Keep up the good work! read more

Excellent soup, sandwiches, salads and baked goods. I had the Asian chicken salad and the wild rice soup. My family had the pulled pork sandwich. Everyone was happy! The staff was very friendly. Love the holiday decor. A really cozy, friendly place! read more

Very cute coffee shop/bakery in the Grand Village. It is a popular place so be prepared to wait in line for a bit. We got in line at 10:40 and got served at 11:15 and they said that we might not be able to order breakfast :( but they ended up making the sandwich for us. So I suggest getting there a little earlier before the 11 o'clock cut off just in case. The breakfast sandwich & cinnamon roll was AMAZING. They have a separate little shop for just coffee orders which was nice, but the staff could have been a little more efficient overall. I'm on vacation and needed to get some work done, and this was the perfect place to do it! Good wifi connection and good food. read more

I had to take my family here after seeing all of the reviews and wow, I'm so glad we got the key lime pie to share. I was offset by the color (it's more tan than green) but that didn't matter at all. It was creamy and perfectly tart. The presentation was beautiful with a purple flower perched on top of HOMEMADE whipped cream-- not from a can. The crust was of great consistency. My picky eating brother even had a few bites. Oh, and the warm, comforting, homelike atmosphere was a great resting place from our long day. People who complain about the long line: this is Branson as well as a destination/tourist area (The Grand Village). You must expect to wait in a line during PEAK HOURS and on the WEEKENDS. Don't poorly rate a restaurant based on the line. There's a line because people enjoy the food JUST like you. read more

Most of the food we had in Branson was disappointing but not Sugar Leaf! it surpassed our expectations and we wound up eating there twice during our visit. Try the Ultimate BLT and any of their cookies, you'll love it! read more

Everything that we had was AMAZING! We highly recommend the grilled cheese, chili, cheesecake and cookies. We came in the fall and their seasonal drinks were fantastic! They were exceptionally kind even though they were extremely busy. Kudos! read more

First and foremost, the food is wonderful. Super yummy and slightly different than the usual. Pros: the food is excellent. The bakery items are perfection. The peach tea and strawberry lemonade are both wonderful. The place is decorated so cute! For these reason alone, I would return....but I would do so at an off time or off day. Cons: we waited in line 20 minutes but they were not that busy. They were steady but not anything more than that. The lady taking orders never smiled. She took orders, fixed the drinks, grabbed some of the bakery items and helped carry items to the table. The whole ordering process was extremely inefficient. The staff in general seemed down and almost a bit grumpy (with the exception of one young girl who appeared to be new). While the chicken salad was excellent, the portion was so small that I literally only took 4 bites and it was gone! Despite the shortfalls, I would visit again because the food was so good and I loved the decor and ambiance. We might have caught them in a bad day or something. read more

Try the key lime pie-- creamiest, most delicious I've had outside of Florida! Ruben was also tasty, though a little small. I'd definitely recommend! read more

Slow service. Got my order wrong, but didn't send it back because we had already waited so long. Food was underwhelming. Dairy Queen and McDonalds are close by and are probably better options. read more

Yummm everything in here is delicious! We had the Reuben and the pastrami plus a Carmel turtle cookie. The receptionist at the Marriott recommended this spot and we were not disappointed . So glad we came we're here a week and I'm sure we will be back . read more

Visitor with us wanted something local and sweet! Got her a slice of SL's Almond Joy cake! Amazing! Try it!

Had the Tuscan Veggie and the Fig and walnut salad for lunch. The salad was good. The sandwich was soggy. Wasn't too impressed with the hype. Never asked how the meal way. Drinks served in fast food togo cups. Nothing special. read more

Ate it too fast to take a pic. Ultimate BLT is primo. Chicken & Wild Rice soup is great too. This is the lunch spot so you can stop looking. You found it. read more

I ordered a s'more cookie, a valentine cookie, and a cinnamon roll..........not sure if they thought I ordered a fried pie (I did not but I got one) it was $20.......the s'more cookie was good, the valentines Cooke was awful. I assume it's what cardboard would taste like. The cinnamon roll was hard tasted old ........they had cakes they looked amazing! I paid $20 for these 4 items .......only one was edible...... read more

Sugar Leaf catered the desserts at our wedding last weekend, and every last person at the reception was gushing with great things to say. On top of the warm, punctilious customer service planning from hundreds of miles away, their confusingly low prices, prompt delivery, and phenomenal decadence of each morsel, the presentation is top-notch. My wife and family strongly recommend Sugar Leaf, whether it's to order one cupcake or hundreds. read more

Sugar Leaf Bakery, Cafe & Espresso - Presentation + Taste = Unbeatable Quality - Cafes Near Me - Branson, Missouri

A must place to visit! Loved our lunch and desserts. Enjoyed sitting outside while eating our delicious lunch and dessert.

Excellent food and service. The menu will please. The pastrys are excellent. The coffee selection is very good also, for lattes and coffees there is quite a few to choose from including seasonal drinks. Food made to order. All looked delicious. read more

My husband and I had a day date here and I was so happy! We sat at an adorable little table. I ordered the tuna salad sandwich on dill bread... WOW!! Incredible!! My husband had the roast beef and he loved his sandwich as well. I ordered the hot chocolate with the brûléed marshmallow and it was so good that it made me giddy! My husband had a s'mores cookie and I had the cranberry apple pie! Man! Soo sooo good! read more

Frustrating. I asked the young woman at the counter, "What's your favorite?" "I don't know, I like them all." If you were here for one time, what would you order?" "I don't know, whatever you want." "Can you at least tell us what they are?" She did. I ordered one of each. When I got to the car I remembered at least 4 varieties that were not in the box. I wonder how much in lost sales this girl costs the business owner each day??? If I were evaluating the cookies we did get, I would give them a B+. read more

My husband and I have eaten there several times and returned for lunch on Saturday. It was very busy and we waited in line with about 8-10 people in front of us, it took 15-20 minutes to get through the line to order. Many people left because it took so long, which was their loss. The setting is simple yet unique, elegant which I think also describes their food. We had the chili, not overly hot more like a sweet and spicy with a pop of flavors. The desserts are a feast for the eyes! It makes it difficult to choose because everyone looks so delightful. We decided on the Carmel Apple Cheesecake, creamy lemony cheesecake with an apple base and a cinnamon graham cracker crust. Nice twist on cheesecake. This eatery deserves a 5-Star but the wait time was a big minus. read more

The food & coffee get 5 stars, the service gets 3, so I settled on a 4. We were waiting on the doors to open at 10 & were the third people in line to order, on Monday morning. There was no quiche, which everyone in line wanted, so we ordered the biscuit sandwich. We got our food around 10:40 so the wait was long, but it tasted great. It seemed like the staff were all asleep still & trying to get in a groove. There also really should be a bigger sign that says to order coffee on the cafe side & not just a small one on the register on the coffee side. Everyone who came in, including us, walked to the coffee side register & had to come back without a word from the staff that were behind it. read more

My husband and I went here before Easter. It was our first time there. It's a really lovely place. We were greeted as we entered. Staff is very cordial. I had a pick two type thing and chose the Country Ham Sandwich with Chicken Wild Rice Soup. My husband skipped straight to dessert and had the Carrot Cake. That is his favorite cake and he's a bit of a connoisseur about it. He was totally impressed-- he's actually spoken about it multiple times since then. My food was delicious as well. We are looking forward to returning on our next trip to Branson. Highly recommend! read more

Great food; however, the service lacked something to be desired. Definitely need more help. It took over 30 minutes for us just to place our order. Young lady taking orders even disappeared for a time to do something else when the line was at least ten deep. Don't come if you are on a time crunch. read more

My husband and I came on an out of town visit. The cafe is very cute looking. He ordered a sandwich and kettle chips and I ordered a 1/2 sandwich and salad. We both enjoyed our food immensely. I had a Turkey sandwich and a salad w/ figs and feta. I think he had a ham sandwich and bbq chips. We also had a unique cookie that was very good. The line was long but it didn't take too long to order/pay and receive our food. They bring the food to you like Panera. Only criticism I have was the limited amount of baked goods available. The website had many more baked goods than what I saw on display. Overall we loved this restaurant and would definitely return if in the Branson area again! read more

Great lunch spot. Fresh and homemade. Portions could be larger but the food was delicious. Wished they had an espresso machine read more

Julie R. Is correct. The food is very good but...the wait in line is almost intolerable. If you are in a hurry, don't come here. Pros: We ordered 5 different items in our group and everyone raved about the food. The chili was lukewarm but they heated it back up for me at my request and it was very good - similar to sloppy-joe meat. I was advised to get the Almond Joy cake and it was almost $7 for a very thin slice but it was very rich and filling - and excellent! Cons: Being a former restauranteur, I can't understand why they can't come up with a more efficient system for the line. One young lady takes your order and then gives the entree part to 4 guys making sandwiches and salads. But if you order dessert or a drink, she stops what she is doing, put on glove, gets the cake out of the showcase, slices it, puts it on a dish, covers the cake back up, returns it to the case. Then she gets a cup and fills it with ice and pours your drink. Get the point? Only it takes longer for her to do it then it takes to read this; much longer. Simple solution: have an expediter to get desserts and pour drinks so she can move on to the next person in line! I'll give them 5 stars when they figure out how to handle a mere 5 people in line quicker! read more

Lovely spot. The desserts looked AMAZING!!! I ordered a bowl of chicken and wild rice soup. The soup had a good amount of chicken. Unfortunately the rice was almost nonexistent. When we asked about it the cook sent us a ramekin with 3-4 tablespoons of rice for 2 bowls of soup. I was very disappointed. I'd go there again by I wouldn't order the soup. read more

The service was awful, it took about 15 minutes for them to ring in my food, the cashier just walked away in the middle of taking my order. They were out of quiche, their signature item and the reason we came here. I got a breakfast wrap that was slopped with some sauce that I didn't care for and not listed in the description, and they forgot to put cheese on it, plus, it only had one fried egg in the entire burrito. I have as so looking forward to this place but I suggest you would have better luck with a chain. read more

This place is absolutely delightful! I was incredibly pleased with the ultimate BLT, creamy chicken and wild rice soup (best I've ever had!) and the s'mores chocolate chip cookie. The cafe is decorated like something out of a dream and the food is amazing. I wish I lived here so I could visit more often. :) read more

AMAZING food!!!!!! Unbelievable wild rice soup, Asian salad, and Cajun turkey wrap. Highly recommend for lunch or dinner.

Searched for a place for lunch near our hotel and found the Sugar Leaf. This was an excellent find. Small, intimate, beautifully appointed, this breakfast, lunch and pastry establishment is a gem. Food, pastries, and service are perfect. Everything is made in-house. Key lime pie is perhaps one of the best we've ever had. So good we went back and told friends who went and agreed. read more

This is SUCH an ADORABLE spot!! Both my sister and I got seasonal drinks that were quite unique and tasty! (The holly jolly with rosemary and my sister got one with pistachio) The interior is decorated with modern Christmas. Only complaint was the wait. Felt like it was quite busy but that our drinks may have been forgotten. Minor as we weren't in a rush. Didn't eat anything but the food looked amazing! read more

We were in Branson and Big Cedar Lodge for the past 2 weeks. This was the best meal that we had during our entire stay. Their salads are delicious and so are their sandwiches. We did not try their desserts but those look unbelievably good. read more

Wonderful lunch here, everyone loved their sandwiches! The asparagus soup was delicious. For dessert we shared the strawberry fields cake and the double chocolate cupcake. The strawberry cake was AMAZING! read more

Chicken and rice soup is amazing! Their ultimate BLT good. Tuna on their fresh dill bread so yummy. But the desserts is where it's at!!!! The cheesecake is amazing!!!!!!! The sugar cookies are good. read more

Fwow! We had a great lunch here at the Sugar Leaf Bakery Cafe. The Sugar Leaf immediately shot to the top of all the places we've eaten in Branson. For around $20, I had the tasty pulled pork and chips, and my wife had the grilled cheese and their insanely delicious creamy wild rice and chicken soup. We will return soon and often! read more

This place is awful. The staff is rude. My fiancé and I were so excited about our first cake tasting. We drove 1 1/2 hours to Branson after making an appointment a week in advance. We told them the wedding date and location. When we arrived we were barley greeted. Then after we tasted the cakes we were informed our date was already booked! What a waste of a 3 hour round trip! read more
