We did not have to wait even though we did not make reservations because they had tables for those that did not make reservations. They were very organized. The wide selection of dishes and dishes offered something for every taste bud. They were all delicious. A small quaint restaurant that reflects the atmosphere of the community is our kind of place. In addition, we could hear each other talk, and there was enough room for someone that has trouble walking to get around.

Seating is available on the first floor, upstairs, and on the second floor balcony providing an overview of downtown Decorah. The staff is always friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. I cannot say enough about the ice cream desserts. Yummy!

The ordering at the front makes things super quick and seamless, once food is brought to the tables they are self service for everything else mostly! The whole ambiance from Saturdays hustle and bustle packed table to table then on Sunday a calm, quiet, vibe filled morning - both times food was amazing! You HAVE to try the apple danish, my ladies said their coffees were some of the best they had in the area as the beans were high quality, and otherwise I don't think you could go wrong with any of the breakfast options but my favorites were the biscuits and gravy, their plate sized pancake (added berries!), and a breakfast burrito with Green Chile sauce. This cafe is not only gorgeously decorated, but with the food being a hit - it's a must go if in the Decorah area.

I might've been in a weird mood, but this place has the coolest hangout vibes of any coffee shop…read moreI've entered outside of Vienna or London Dropped in recently to send some emails/work while my mom was riding her horse nearby, and what a vibrant spot! Nice open/airy first floor with lots of comfy chairs/couches with different configurations to sit and chill or rendezvous with your work team/friends, etc. There was a dude tying flies in the corner and college kids meeting for a study group, diverse mix of folks. Apparently they have tap beer & wine on nights where they host events like trivia on Thurs or bingo on Fri, cool local artwork featured on the walls Service was great/informative on the drink and bakery items, coffee came out quickly (granted it wasn't super busy), Nitro cold brew was excellent, wifi great, chair was comfy, would drop in anytime I'm in the area to catch up on work, relax with great caffeination, or check out the events they host. Cheers!

I really love the vibe of this store! We stopped in during a first-ever visit to Decorah. I was in…read moresearch of local cheese and singles of local cider. I scored, big time, on both counts. They carried a good range from local cheese maker WW Homestead and also had a nice variety of Wisconsin cheeses along with some imports. The cider selection really came as a wonderful surprise, though. I used to cider being given a short shrift compared to beer. Instead, they had a great variety from local cideries, and I even bought a bottle from Belgium! My husband found a few new beers, too. If and when I come here again, I'd love to look through more of the store, even as I check on the cheese and cider anew. This is definitely my kind of place.

We stopped in to grab sandwiches for lunch. We were there before lunch and we're the only ones…read moreordering sandwiches. It took two staff members 20 minutes to make two sandwiches "made to order". We stood there and had no idea why it was taking forever. They did toast the bread. As pictured, I was glad they had GF bread but it made my sandwich much smaller. I got lettuce, red peppers, "avocado" the green paste you see on the lid, pepperjack and mayo. We bought a large bad of chips and a tea $2.29 and our total for two "no extras" sandwiches, the tea and one bag of chips was $24 and change. Still can't believe how puny the meal was. Only two veggies before you're charged .99 for extras. I expected it would be substantial and filling. Otherwise the store was clean, and has lot of options for foods and natural products.
