We also tried several pastries, all of which were amazing, but the sourdough chocolate chip & the lavender shortcake were by far our favorites. The baristas are all very friendly & certainly KNOW coffee. It is a cute, tiny building with plenty of seating out front.

The coffee was acceptable. I appreciate that they offer an 8oz latte, which in later part of the…read moreday is all I require. It's quite rare to find this offered in Alaska. The location is take out only, with seating offered on their small but sweet patio. A few steps in either direction will take customers to the beach or the Port, so seating is really a not a consideration. What suprised me was how soon in the season they closed up shop. We went on Saturday in early September and they were open, we returned the following day on Sunday- the SAME weekend, and they had flipped over their "closed for the season" sign. Weird. It seems like places on the spit are closing earlier and earlier every year; never mind those of use who live in Alaska within driving distance who are waiting for the tourists to leave so we can enjoy local businesses. Hm.

They had good cold brew which my husband went back for seconds before we even left the boardwalk, and I got an iced tea (caffeine limits are sad :( The tea they used was from sipping streams which is a Fairbanks locally made tea which was cool. It was good, but I should have added honey or sugar. But it was fine. Cute on the inside, nowhere to sit. I've never been to Homer in the winter so I only know summer and they probably cater to tourists. You can sit outside on the picnic tables.
