Jun 24, 2026"TLDR: Not the best coffee on the island, but good location and vibes. Iced vanilla latte was decent, on the sweeter side. The barista was nice and told us we could borrow pickle ball paddles for free at the bike rental shop… he was right. They have other pastries and snacks there as well. Nice patio seating right outside, otherwise can go sit on the Adirondack chairs by the lake on the lawn like we did."

Their drinks are delicious and I love the fact that they have non dairy options. Not only do they sell coffee and pastries but they also sell on the go snacks, salads and sandwiches. If you forget to grab your water before going around the island this is the perfect place as they sell water and drink opinions. They also have a small alcohol selection which includes wines."

May 05, 2026"I got the "honey bee" cold brew. Honestly one of the best cold brews I've ever had. Also tried the raspberry croissant and it was scrumptious. Service was polite and quick and the view was stellar. A bit pricey but we're on an island and the items we purchased were quality so I think it's fair."
