Wireless internet service
An average cup of joe. They do have perked decaf, unlike the competition. Nice patio and the whole place is wired for internet use (free). The make all pastries in the back but I don't like them as they're way too sweet. No bagels or other standard coffee house stuff available.    [10 Jul 2004 01:55:49]

Beware high coffee price
The coffee at Lake Gregory coffee Company is very tasty. However it has increased in price 2 times in the past month(April 05)! First it was 11.00 a pound, then 2 weeks ago it was 12.00 a pound now today it was 14.00 a pound! That's it for me- when I asked why yet another increase the owner's wife shrugged her shoulders and said "he did not raise the price enough". I will stop and boycott now. Thanks for keeping the mountain customers happy-NOT.    [27 Apr 2005 19:01:34]

Family Business At Its Best
Having worked at two coffee shops myself, one being Starbucks, the other a mom & pop owned shop, I can say with some authority that Steve and Andrea have an excellent coffeehouse.

If you like Starbucks, you might opt for their darkest brew. Otherwise I suggest the more mild blends which I find have more character to them.

They also make a top notch latte, as their espresso machine is of high quality, kept in good working order, and only people trained to use it will be making your drinks! As Steve has told me, "If you are going to pay 3 bucks for a fancy coffee, it better be made right."

I especially enjoy their chocolate chip scones, which should speak volumes considering I'm not a huge fan of chocolate to begin with. They also have in-season fruit scones, such as apricot which are my second favorite, and use fresh fruits in all of their smoothies.

The place is always kept neat, and I'm a stickler for cleanliness, so I'd know if it was at all dirty. The side patio has plenty of seating, even for larger parties, and allows for "people watching" of those walking along the towns sidewalks.

What keeps me coming back is that they sincerely appreciate their customers and have a tight quality control regarding their drinks and pastries.

By the way, if you were planning on having a bad day, call ahead and make sure Annie isn't working, her smile is quite contagious.    [01 Jul 2005 23:42:55]

Best Coffee on the Mountain!
If you're looking for a fabulous cup of joe, you'll find it here! Their edibles are usually good as well, and they offer bottles of Stewart's soda in the cooler (a huge bonus!).

The decor is charming and friendly; the place is always well kept. Staff is attentive. If you're on the go, they have a nifty curbside parking spot so you can get in and out in a jiffy.

Basically, this is the one spot that has all the best touches!    [22 Aug 2005 10:28:01]

better than starbucks
Coffee is good- not too bitter like Starbucks, is strong (if you like strong coffee...) but mellow on the palate.
Their pastries are homemade, I like their scones best- not too dry or rock hard like some scones I've had. Pumpkin muffins are good too. They have bagels as well.
Neat atmosphere and nice patio to sit at.    [28 Jun 2006 11:25:02]
