What a gem of a coffee shop and cafe in a super cute town! Very clean, employees were wonderful and the food was delicious! We got a bagel with cream cheese, the basil pesto egg panini and a side of bacon from the cafe. All were outstanding. 10/10 would order again. Ordered a hot tea, black coffee and macadamia nut cookie from the ice cream area. Totally would have gotten ice cream but it was a little too early in the day. All the flavors looked delish. Had lots of options for cones too. We will definitely make a point to stop here again if in the area. read more

They have done a great job converting a garage into a coffee shop/cafe and it looks nice. And the staff were nice. But everything was served too hot! The panini - too hot! The coffee - way too hot! By the time it cooled enough to taste my tongue was too angry to enjoy it :( read more

Small, very clean modern coffee/ice cream shop. This place is very popular with the locals....hence the name. Great place to stop for coffee/ice cream/avocado toast or whatever is on the menu! read more

Amazing place to eat and drink. It's right off one of the main streets in town, although parking was difficult. You have to park on the street or park a few blocks away. I decided to walk in instead of going through the drive thru. They have a lot of stuff to chose from. I ordered a coffee and decided to hang out in the outdoor area. There is a restaurant next to it and you can access it. The employees were friendly and helpful. They are also dog friendly. Will definitely visit again soon! read more

What a cute place with the nicest staff! Several delicious ice cream flavors -- and perfect waffle bowls.

I got the All Day Breakfast Sandwich. Bacon, Bacon/Tomato Jam, egg, cheddar, spinach, on ciabatta. I removed the spinach and added avocado. $12.50, plus $2 for avocado. Holy cow! It was delicious. The bacon jam is worth writing home about. The atmosphere is amazing and the staff is very friendly! I will be back. read more

Waited 20 min in the driveway! Two girls working! Drinking coffee playing with their hair!! They never greeted us in 20 min!!!' Rude as hell!!!! read more

We love this gem of an addition to La Grande Main Street (Adams Avenue). From fantastic coffee and ice cream to a delicious assortment of pastries and amazing panini's and soup, you cannot go wrong! Their patio is perfection and when they open up the garage doors in the summer it is truly magnificent. And as if it could get any better, the staff is absolutely phenomenal. read more

I love this place. It has a great atmosphere, and feels homey inside. Fast wifi, fast service, and a friendly faces. The food is great, as well as the vegan ice cream. As someone who can't have dairy I am so thankful this is in town! read more

This is kind of a yuppie scum ice cream place that happened to be right next to my hotel. The coffee was ok, I guess but it's really an ice cream parlor so bear that in mind. Large outdoor patio so on a warm night it can be pleasant out there enjoying a cuppa joe. Too many people to suit me though so you may want to opt for a quieter location. No complaints, necessarily, so five stars although this really isn't my kind of place. YMMV read more

Fine aesthetic experience in old gas station turned coffee shop. Lots of natural light and outdoor space. Will return!

Made a quick pit stop for breakfast and coffee at The Local on our way to hike the Eagle Caps & we not only had fabulous espresso, but really solid breakfast sandwiches as well. It was hard to pick a favorite, we ended up splitting them both! read more

We have come for coffee before but this is the first time we have gotten food. First of all, the service is very nice, friendly & helpful without being overbearing. You get you coffee and food in different areas. Ambiance is great with multiple sitting areas and mellow background music. Lots of outside seating & options. We both got the All Day Breakfast Sandwich which was amazing. The Tomato Jam really pulled everything together. Yea, it sounds a little weird but it was excellent. We both are trying to stay away from the high cal coffee drinks so got an Americano with cream & 1/2 shot of Hazelnut. It was perfect. Great spot for a relaxing bite to eat before we dive into the day. read more

Definitely the best local ice cream place in town. We've had breakfast and coffee from here as well and it's always delicious. The owners are great people and definitely make this town a better place. read more

Cutesy spot that is right across from the Landing Hotel. Perfect for a small breakfast or coffee or even ice-cream on a hot summer day. There's an open area with comfortable chairs and lots of open space. I had a breakfast sandwich which was good, came back that afternoon for ice cream which was even better. read more

This is such a cute coffee/pastry/breakfast place! They even have a drive-thru plus inside/outside seating. They employees were nice and friendly. Such a cool vibe and a great hangout and study place. What is also cool that it was transformed from a Texaco. read more

We got coffee and muffins for the road, delicious! Fun friendly atmosphere and cute decorations. Loved the idea I can get coffee here in the morning and ice cream in the evening. We highly recommend! read more

Very slow service on a Saturday morning. Couldn't make some of the menu items and had to order coffee from different parts of the place. Portions were very small and expensive. Basically Starbucks with some different menu items. Went to smokehouse for breakfast the next day. Much better choice. read more

Amazing! The staff were so sweet and the ice cream was great! Get the flight, they aren't mini scoops but fun to share, they come in a cute egg carton! read more

WOW! I could stay at this shop for the entire day. Amazing atmosphere, staff, and food! No notes, this place is perfection and a must stop.

Good spot for a quick lunch. I've cream favors were great with a rotating variety. Nice indoor/outdoor seating which was great for kids.

Delicious healthy food and friendly people. I've been on the road since yesterday from Salt Lake City and needed to find breakfast in La Grande, a place I've never spent any time in. I'm always looking for spots with healthy or organic food that is going to energize me. This is definitely one of those spots! I got a avocado toast with an over medium egg and bacon added which was all cooked perfectly and seasoned. I also got a matcha latte which they gave me the option of sweetening or not. This I particularly appreciated because usually places fill their matcha lattes with sugar and you don't get to have a say in that. My latte was good and the atmosphere of the space was enjoyable as well. The only thing I would change is that you had to order drinks and food in separate places. I wouldn't mind picking up the food and drink in different spots but it'd be nice to order them in one spot and only have to pay once. I would give them a 4.5/5 if I could but as it stands I gave them a 5 because everything else was wonderful. read more

Stopped here for coffee & breakfast sandwiches on our way to Portland from Haines, Oregon. Cute, independently owned place in former Texaco station. Right off Adams which takes you straight to I-84. So convenient if just passing thru. They also have ice cream. Will definitely keep this in mind for future purposes. P.S. our breakfast sandwiches were delicious. Coffee met our expectations. Friendly and welcoming staff. read more

Was so fun and yummy! Friendly and accommodating and great seating indoor or out. Don't miss out on this gem!

Wonderful coffee, chai (both black and caffeine free rooibos!) as well ice cream, including a few vegan options such as almond joy and strawberry. I had the tomato soup with their delicious sourdough pretty much every day I was in town and it was so tasty and comforting. The service is really great. Comfortable living room seating in addition to tables, and even a fireplace! read more

Stopped in to The Local today and ordered an affogato, a drip coffee and a ham and cheese croissant to go. Firstly we were cheerfully greeted by multiple people. It instantly made me happy and want to come back. The people working were quick, helpful and made us feel so welcome. The affogato was delicious, a shot of espresso served over your choice of ice cream, we choose rocky road..... sooooo tasty. The drip coffee was hot and fresh and they let me sample it to make sure I liked the roast first. The croissant was very good, it was tender and the ham was flavorful with good, meaty texture. We will be back! read more

The ambiance is so cute. Just happened to stumble upon this place when we were passing through and glad we did. We both got coffee drinks that were good. Not watered down or too packed with ice. The breakfast sandwich had bacon + tomato jam on it and omg... so freaking good. Everyone was kind and we will definitely come back when we pass through La Grande again. read more

Amazing ice cream flavors! I got the Maple Doughnut ice cream and it tasted just like a maple bar. They had make their waffle cones and those are really yummy too. I loved the atmosphere and the retro theme. Highly recommend! read more

The Local opens at 6:30 AM. I arrived at 7:00. Location & decor is cute. I expected to be able to order a breakfast sandwich but was told they would not be available until after 8:00 when the breakfast workers come in. This was VERY disappointing. I decided to try a cinnamon roll - meh. Overall not impressed. read more

Such a cute place! We love staying at The Landing Hotel across the street. Great coffee and I love Stella's ice cream!

I likes some ice creams some days. I love home made waffle cones. If yas likes ice cream and a super clean and friendly joint ... this be da place. read more

First of all their drip coffee is amazing! Straight up black coffee. I ordered the avocado toast with an egg. The sour dough bread looked as if it was cut from a fresh loaf. Lots of avocado with a bit of lemon and sea salt. I skipped the goat cheese. DANG! I'm going back next time I'm in town. Well done! I would have posted a pic but I scarfed it down too fast. Love #TheLocal read more

The Local provides a cozy, yet gourmet, cafe experience. A gem hidden in rural Oregon; I enjoy the atmosphere of the building and the skillful renovation of an old-style Texaco. I was serviced by a barista, Bekah Davis, who was quick to offer a curated selection of coffee and bakery items as well as create a positive experience with her personable, friendly personality. Highly recommend. read more

Very pleasant ice cream and drink store. Serves waffle cones and has some gluten free offerings.

I think this place just opened, I guess that's why I'm the first to review. Great coffee. They had all the 'milk' options which is important to me....milk, milk, almond milk, oat milk. The beans from Mukilteo Roasters makes great espresso. Will come by for some drip tomorrow. Bright, clean, friendly and fabulous outdoor seating. Also lots of flavors of ice cream and homemade waffle cones. read more

The ice cream is really good, people are super kind and friendly, a cup of tap water costs 50¢. That's weird. I saw three groups leave when they heard water cost fifty cents. I recommend finding a cheaper water cup and making it free. Live music was a nice touch tonight too, but people were leaving to drink water from their water bottles in the car (I heard a family talking about this) because of the 50¢ water. You've only been open for a year, you don't need people talking about 50¢ water when they should be talking about coffee and ice cream. read more

Best Ice Cream in Union County! They make the waffle cones and they're delicious. They have a great outdoor seating area. Good service and the staff are always friendly. read more

Really cute restaurant in an old Texaco. We had a delicious muffaletta sandwich with chips and a great side salad. The ice cream is out of this world. I am a Rocky Road fan, it was the best Rocky Road ice cream. We would definitely stop anytime we are in the area. read more

I was blown away yet again! I frequent The Landing and have always loved it! Little did I know that the owners would be able to nock-it-out-of-the-park yet again! At The Local, the service was impeccable, the atmosphere spot on, and I chose to go with the ice cream! 2 scoops of Blue Moon and Vanilla! Everyone needs to do themselves a favor and become a regular!!! read more
