I liked the free and great tasting French Roast. I paid $0.25 more to get a larger size, which was totally worth it!

We discovered this place on our Taste of Catalina Food Tour* (*highly recommended). The spiced iced tea was delicious as was the chocolate/pistachio bark ... but our all time favorite was the "Best Brownie Ever". My daughter and I decided we had to see if it was true to it's name and it was!! It was by far the best... More

Service is fast is friendly. The coffee drinks were prepared exactly as ordered. The coffee was delicious...not bitter like some places. However, the desserts were not so great. I got a big chocolate cookie and it was hard as a rock. It felt & tasted like it had been sitting in the case for several days. My friend got a... More

This is a cute coffee shop in the center of town where everyone seems to know each other. They have a few different options for fresh-brewed flavored coffees (my favorite) and great treats. Their brownies are the best!!

We had great service, and really enjoyed the coffee and cookies. It was hard to choose from all their yummy-looking choices! Very close to the beach, making it easy to take your order with you and enjoy the view.

Great spot, seems to be where the locals go and everyone walking in knew each other. We enjoyed lattes, mochas, and hot chocolate, and were never disappointed. The only draw back was that it was cash only.

Not sure if maybe the barista was having a bad day, but she was a little grouchy about telling us that the coffee was self-serve. And then when I went to order a couple cookies from her, she was staring off into the distance, paying no attention to me, and I wasn't sure she had even heard me. It was... More

I am sorry for your experience with our staff member. Can you tell me what time of day you came in so I can discuss the situation with him or her. I hope you will consider sending me your email so that I can send you a gift certificate if you return to the island for a visit. More

This is a good place to grab a cookie and a cup of coffee and to unwind after a long walk. We went to this place during the mid morning following a long hike. Coffee tasted great as did the cookies. It is also centrally located.

I enjoyed stopping here several times. I'm not addicted to coffee yet but a great cup of coffee and salt water to look out over WOW, it doesn't get much better. Strolling thru the streets of Avalon just seems to bring you back for another!
