Friend had a breakfast sandwich and I as well, loved the arugula on it and the overall flavor, wish it had a little kick to it in spice but feel like I could have just asked. Cinnamon roll was also very fun. One suggestion for consideration do the management staff is if it's going to be a place with books, maybe some nice lamps for more ambient lighting rather than the harsh fluorescents? Either way I am happy to have a new coffee shop to look forward to visiting when I am in the area!

I've seen great reviews for BlueNose Coffee so I had to check it out! They had a drive thru but I…read morewent inside to order. They have a cozy atmosphere and is a nice spot to enjoy a morning drink. I ordered a blue nose mocha and a believin' berry buzz dirty soda along with a blueberry scone. The scone was subtly sweet and pretty dense. It was a great choice of bakery item. The mocha was super sweet. It almost tasted more like a latte than a mocha. The sugary flavors drown out the espresso bitterness. I'd order something else next time since the sugar rush was a lot. Since Farmington has been known to consume the most Mountain Dew per capita in the US I ordered a Mountain Dew based dirty soda. With all the added flavors of this drink I kind of forgot it was Mountain Dew. Like everything else this was a super sugary drink but was nice to try due to the novelty of the drink.

I've passed by BlueNose Coffee many times and always noticed how busy it is, especially the…read moredrive-through, which always seems packed. I finally decided to stop in for an early coffee and breakfast. They have a display case next to the register offering bakery items and sandwiches. The bakery items looked great, but I was in the mood for something more filling, so I ordered the Turkey Bacon Apple sandwich. For my drink, I chose the hot Bananas Foster Latte with an extra shot of espresso. The coffee was pretty good and came out quickly. It wasn't mind-blowing, but I enjoyed it. The sandwich was also good, though nothing particularly special--it was a fairly standard turkey sandwich. The vibe of the café is nice, with plenty of tables and cute décor. The service was great as well; the person who took my order was very friendly and welcoming. While this isn't a place I'm rushing back to, I would return to try some of the bakery items or one of their "dirty sodas," which I thought was an interesting addition to the menu.

Walking in, it was very warmly designed and had plenty of space and seating options from solo or group settings. There's some outlet options around as needed as well. The menu was around the top front counter with baked goods for viewing. I wanted to try their signature drink Arise. The staff was welcoming and assisted promptly and explained to me that it was like a latte with cinnamon swirl syrup which sounded great to me. It's definitely a nice spot to stop by if you're in the area!

I was looking for a local coffee shop to start my morning and tapestry coffee was a great spot!…read moreThey had many coffee options and customizations to choose from. I ordered a couple of seasonal flavors and breakfast items to share. They had 2 sizes to choose from, a 10oz and 16oz. The 16oz has 4 shots of espresso in it so it will definitely fuel your morning. The breakfast items I purchased were a breakfast sandwich which is fully customizable and the avocado toast. The breakfast sandwich was really good but the avocado toast wasn't my favorite. I think the avocado mash was a little too bitter. Opt for a breakfast sandwich and you won't be disappointed.

Updated review: Came back a second time with a friend and I'm honestly much more impressed. My…read morefirst visit didn't totally win me over, but this time the coffee was noticeably better and the overall experience felt more worth it. The space still has a slightly weird food hall vibe (not super cozy coffee shop energy), but the drinks are hand crafted. They use local beans, have handmade syrups, and offer a fun variety of specialty drinks that feel thoughtful and well made. One of my favorite details: the plants throughout the shop have names and many are for sale, which is such a fun, quirky touch and makes the space feel more intentional and unique. Overall, I'm glad I gave it another shot, much better experience the second time and definitely a cool local spot with personality.

I ordered the Absolutely Alice and loved it--the balance was spot-on, not overly sweet, and just what I needed for a mid-day caffeine boost. My chocolate chip cookie was yummy as well. The space is beautiful. Filled with plants, cozy lighting, and plenty of seating. It's the kind of place that works well for catching up with a friend, getting some studying done, or just having a little solo time. Bonus: there's parking on-site, which is always a win in my book, and a bunch of other businesses in the area if you want to run errands after. I don't make it out to Apple Valley often, but this spot might give me a reason to start.

I have been wanting to try this place for a while and finally got the chance!…read more There is tons of free parking! This building used to serve a difference purpose and did more "business" stuff. It has not been converted and one of the new places inside is selling delicious coffee!! The space was modern and very clean! There is also a fair amount of seating here! This place has an awesome cause! They employ those that may have a harder time getting a job due to cognitive abilities. With that being said, be respectful, order a bit slower and if you need to repeat yourself, be patient! Everyone here was unbelievably sweet! The coffee was absolutely AMAZING! Starbucks has nothing on these guys! I got a blackberry vanilla latte iced with oatmilk (almond milk is the other nondairy option) IT WAS DELICIOUS!!! I want to try all of their specials now!! This is a "hidden gem" for Apple Valley! Definitely give this place a try!!

The coffee is delicious every single time. Their mission makes it even better. They give back to the community and employ individuals with Down syndrome who are truly the sweetest and make the whole experience feel even more personal. The staff take great care of you, the service is always kind, and the drive-through is incredibly convenient, especially since the shop itself is located inside an office building. Just be mindful of the indoor hours, but the drive-through window on the side makes it easy to swing by anytime they're open. Such a feel-good spot with great coffee and an even greater purpose. One of my favorites.

Overall we had a great experience and thank DC for being so inclusive and supportive of all abilities. Based on feedback, it was the consensus that we would all recommend it.

I enjoyed a seasonal lemon bar latte (yum!) and a gluten free banana chocolate chip muffin. I will likely be back. The coffee is great, the parking situation is just a bit weird.

It's funny how poor customer service completely changes your attitude towards a business you used…read moreto enjoy. I used to live in the area and when the small coffee shop opened I was so exited to have that in our community and was happy to support them - even if some coffee beverages were top dollar. I was in the area today, and decided to stop in since I no longer live in the area and wanted to enjoy a good brew. Unfortunately, the experience I had left me leaving with a bitter taste in my mouth - and it wasn't from the coffee. I thought it goes without saying, but when a customer greets you, you should greet them back, not just stare. It would be even better if your staff would greet each customer first - make them feel welcome. Maybe I'm a millennial channeling boomer energy, but for years I'm noticing the customer service disappearing from a lot of businesses. I love that connection, but I'm understanding that some people see only a paycheck and skid by with minimal customer service and that is the new way. I don't plan to visit this establishment again. I wish the barista with star tattoos would have put in enough customer service energy that she did with her impeccable makeup.

I have never been disappointed by the quality of food and service. They even have punch cards for frequent visitors!
