Not only this, but the sign on the door said "No Pets Allowed (except service animals)." It was comforting to know that our kids were more welcome than the pets!

I stopped in for one treat and after the incredible rhubarb (which seemed to sell out) came back a second time with my husband and enjoyed a savory snack outside.

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 also charge the same amount for hot or iced drink, most places charge like 50 cents extra to ice it. I think I got an iced latte with cookie dough vanilla. Like the other coffees I had in Homer it was not very smooth but it was still good. Hard to tell if it was burnt shots or just how the coffee is roasted. Dont know which coffee beans they use, a local from Homer or somewhere else.

The barista was very kind and friendly as most people are on the spit. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because the drinks were just okay. My husband got the mocha which he said was just okay. Nothing special. I got the lupine latte which has rose and lavender in it and I added hazelnut. It had almost no flavor which I was surprised about because I added more syrup. It wasn't bad though! Just tasted like a latte with 1 pump of lavender kind of. If you like just a hint of flavor in your coffee, this would be a great spot for you.

The coffee was SUPER good! My husband and I both got 16oz coffees and the total was only $12 and we inhaled the coffees lol. In the cafe, we got the breakfast burrito which comes with potatoes, pico and green sauce for a total of $40. It was a pretty big burrito but was just okay. Not a blast of flavor like I was expecting based on how good the coffee was. The service was great, everyone was super kind and the food came out quick even with the morning rush during a holiday weekend!
