A lots going on here but it's still pretty simple: menu in the back, goodies on the counter, you can see syrups- now order 02/19/2021
Ona R.

This is a nice local joint with lots of coffees, teas, smoothies and Red Bull flavored beverages to choose from- they have a plethora of syrups for whenever you're liking might be. I love the smell of fresh coffee in a coffee shop!!!!!! It was later in the day so I want something refreshing and ordered their passion fruit lemonade tea. I have to say it was not overly sweetened nor priced and you can definitely taste the passion fruit in the tea. The price of it was comparable to other coffee shops but there's nothing like supporting local/small town establishments where you get that local welcome upon entering the door and met with genuine hospitality. The lady behind the counter was very friendly and do some recommendations. All of the staff behind the counter were very friendly and welcoming. Most of the staff, except for one person, had on a mask. Hand sanitizer was available at the counters. There's two places to order, as soon as you walk in which is where you pick up your drink and towards the back. This is such a quaint and inviting and diameter of the tables are cutely decorated and nicely separated. These pictures on the wall. Lots of goodies behind the counter like cookies and cupcakes. And I can't forget the outside had a nicely decorated table that was super inviting if you wanted to sit and sip!!!! We ordered our tea, but someone accidentally picked it up and there was no problem with them making another one. We were offered a pastry and my mother chose the chocolate raspberry cupcake. The cupcake itself was very soft and fluffy. At first the chocolate-based frosting tasted kind of odd but after a while I got used to the whip texture of it and with the cupcake and it was delicious. Can't wait to come back and try more.... my nephew, brother and sister in law highly recommended this spot and it did not disappoint. Lastly, maybe they can ask for their customers names and call them out when ones order is ready that way customers don't grab the wrong one or an order that they know is definitely not theirs.

Fun new place with great drinks. Great menu selections, friendly and helpful staff. Start, finish or get a quick pick up for the day. Don't forget to check out the selection of cup cakes.

Went to The Mud House today. The drink I bought was delicious! The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. The inside is clean and furnished really cute. I highly recommend this establishment!

Cute inside
Leslie D.

I tried hard to like this place. The guy running the place was super friendly and his customer service was great. Then there was the barista who had no idea what she was doing and looked like she didn't want to be there. I asked for a hot latte with extra foam and she put COLD foam on my hot drink! Then when I tried it, the drink was WAY overly sweet that I honestly couldn't drink it. So I asked them super nicely to remake the drink and the guy offered to do it. Then when I tasted the second drink, it definitely wasn't too sweet this time but the espresso was SUPER bitter. I couldn't drink it either. The inside is adorable and this place has so much potential but they need to use better quality espresso, and hire someone else who's customer service is better. I won't be back. Sadly, it was that bad.

The girls at my work recommended this place to me because they know I'm on keto. I love that they offer sugar free milk options and flavors. However they don't put enough flavoring to taste. Also What ever brand of espresso they use doesn't taste good to me. Maybe with the right amount of sweetener it will then be a good beverage. I've also tried this beverage iced as well.

Passion tea lemonade and strawberry green tea
Sarah G.

I agree with another reviewer, such a hidden gem. Customer service was excellent and the atmosphere was great. Loved the setting. They welcomed us right when we walked in and they were very helpful in recommending since it was our first time visiting. I'd rather support this small business then Starbucks any day, as the drinks were so delicious. I'll be back for sure and I def recommend you try.

Daughter wanted to grab a drink for her and her sister, I pull in she's looking at the menu and as…read moreI go ask a question about a drink the lady is communicating with the car behind us getting their order; so I asked for the menu and we parked, tried to look up drinks on their social media... outside of group pictures and drink for the week, it's nowhere to be found. She decides on drinks out of the simpler names (s'mores and Twix). We get back in the opposing lane, car in front of us orders, the same lady leaves the window, exits the back door with a pen and notepad to take the order of the vehicle behind us. Ordering at the window, same lady, just very unpleasant and not welcoming at all. Just very stoic like if she didn't want to be there and we were bugging by saying the 2 drinks of the same size. The blonde lady who handed us our order was more upbeat and pleasant for even just the brief moment. TLDR; don't and won't recommend, prices match up with Starbucks if not a little more but is far behind in customer service and quality.

As a coffee enthusiast I like trying out different coffee roasters any place. The reasons I drove…read moreThur today was because they had a voted best coffee banner out front. I ordered a regular house coffee with a tiny bit of sugar. It was so bad I dumped it out by the planter. I could tell they haven't descaled their coffee machines in years, maybe never. It was a yucky bitter taste like a ash tray flavor. I would not recommend this place to anyone Really disappointed

Love Stafford's chocolates and their drinks and staff. They have different unique flavored…read morechocolates for different seasons but the local favorites remain the same and stand the test of time. I know everyone love the red wine truffle, but my personal favorite is their lavender truffle. Did I forget to mention that they have sugar free chocolates too for diabetics. Those sugar free ones are the best in town. I wish they have an even larger selection of sugar free chocolates bc those are truly amazing They also sell drinks like the Portervillian ( a specialty latte), various matcha flavored drinks etc. and have a loyalty card for drinks only. I can't wait to find out what else is in store as the months go by. Sometimes I find a sourdough loaf of bread sitting on the counter for sale. Wish I bought it cuz it was only there for like a week.

I have heard about this chocolate shop for about a decade, but as it is about 70 miles from my…read morehome, I had not been there. But on a recent Quilt shop hop, imagine my surprised to discover the Quilt store was two doors down from Stafford's. I think that was a sign that I had to go visit. The double sign was that the quilt shop gave away coupons during their event for one free piece of chocolate. So for my free piece of chocolate, I chose the red wine truffle. Oh my goodness, I had to close my eyes to savor it, the taste was that sensational! The shop itself is beautiful. It has tables inside so you can sit and enjoy their confections. All of the shelves are lined with all kinds of specialty chocolates. These include chocolate covered nuts, truffles, bars, Pops, and all kinds of delicious concoctions. You can order single pieces at the front counter for an individual choice and they will compose a box of your selections. They also had many, many packaged items ready to go on the shelves. The staff were friendly and very knowledgeable about their offerings. They were willing to explain the different flavors; the cost of a box of six individual truffles which you can select was $12.50. There's parking in front of the shop on the street and also behind. It's nestled in the Porterville downtown area with multiple Restaurants and eateries very close by. One could have a fun day window shopping, lunching out and then popping by Stafford's for a sweet treat and to buy gifts to take home. Absolutely not to be missed!

This restaurant is located within the local airport. So you get amazing views of aircraft land and taking off from the runway. Great entertainment for everyone, especially kiddos. From the moment you arrive, the staff are friendly and attentive. If you become a regular, the servers remember what specials you gravitate to, which only adds to its charm. Food is always consistent and I have yet to be disappointed. Whether having breakfast or lunch, it's always great! When available, I splurge for the steak and eggs special. Steak is thick, char grilled and cooked to your desired temp. The country potatoes are always crisp on the outside and fluffy inside, seasoned well. Adding bell peppers and onions adds to the experience. Eggs always cooked perfectly and toast soft yet crisp with plenty of butter. Highly recommend. The breakfast bowl is my wife's go to. A little bit of everything. Crispy country potatoes, sweet grilled onions, bell peppers, bite size sausage, bacon and plenty of cheddar cheese. Then topped with eggs cooked to your liking. I wish I could keep this place to myself but I can't. If you're ever in Porterville, give this place a try. You won't regret it.
