The sourdough bread is fresh and delicious and great for using at home for sandwiches or just by itself. All of the pastries we've tried have been hits like the almond croissant, cinnamon roll, and their seasonal ones as well. My personal favorite was the Conecuh Roll which is made with the Alabama favorite Conecuh sausage and was so savory and delicious and a great way to start the morning. The drinks we've gotten here have been great too and I enjoyed my pour over coffee (which the staff brought out to me on the patio which was a nice touch). There's seating inside and also WiFi which could would make a great setting for morning work. There's also a patio deck with some tables and some picnic tables out on the grass. Beautiful setting and our dog enjoyed being out on the patio as well

One time they put about 10 toothpicks in my club sandwich but the toothpicks were too short to hold the sandwich together so it didn't look like ANY toothpicks were in there at first and I realized JUST before I bit into it that there were spikes poking out... okay ...probably was a fluke ig like whatever things happened but then the next time I got coffee there, they seemed kinda mad that I came in to get a coffee and acted like they were doing me a favor selling a $9 coffee to me at 3pm....but you know everyone has bad days so it was whatever... The next time I went to two ghost coffee, I almost forgot my umbrella but remembered it at the last second and was told when I walked back in, "oh I was gonna steal that if you hadn't come back for it." like...?????? probably it was just a bad joke (she sounded dead serious) but that was officially strikes three on weird vibes so I probably won't be back. Something weird and off putting happening every time I went there was kind of a bummer cause I really wanted to like Two Ghosts Coffee. The aesthetic makes it a really neat spot but the energy around that place is just...stinky. Pretty convenient for a quick caffeine fix tho.

We have been going here for probably 10 years whenever we go down to the lake. There are two parts to Catherine's: the market and the cafe. The market always has fresh vegetables, meat, fruit, etc. They also have a variety of wines. They have a decent amount of the necessities that you would need, but not a huge variety of choices because it's a smaller market. Be prepared because it is a little pricey. You're going to pay more here than you would say Publix for the same thing. The Cafe is wonderful. This is 90% the reason we go. Their bakery has a wide variety of muffins and sweet treats (the Heath cookie is awesome). I have eaten here hundreds of times for breakfast and lunch. Their breakfast is phenomenal. I usually get the French toast (my favorite) or one of the omelettes. For lunch I love the ranch bacon chicken panini or the chicken salad. We've dined at the cafe many times and have always been pleased. There is a nice patio outside if you want to eat there as well. The employees are always friendly and welcoming. Overall, I love Catherine's and appreciate the good service we always receive!

If you're visiting the Lake Martin area, and are in need of some wine, slip by Emporium Wine. Henry does a great job of having some of the more popular labels, plus a couple that you might like to try after his recommendations. He also keeps lots of good beer on hand that you won't find in the corner grocery, plus cigars. I don't smoke them but those who do tell me it's a good selection. Henry also has some paintings and framed photography from some local artists. He's located downtown in a beautiful old refurbished building. Worth a stop, especially if you are coming to the lake from Birmingham. Downtown is not far from 280, so it won't take you long.

Having eaten here four times, it's incredibly inconsistent. I waited for 10 minutes without even being greeted by anyone- even though several workers walked right by at the hostess stand. As Tom Colicchio said "People come for the food, but come back for the hospitality." The latter part seems to be the issue here. With that said, as a faithful Lake Martin boater for over 10 years, many in the area seem to struggle similarly. Decor is super cute.
