The area is buzzing with this new cute little cafe!! The menu is outstanding and the food is top tier!! The drinks are amazing and so many to choose from. There are specials that change with the season as well as their main menu. The cafe is tucked away from the hustle and bustle of towns and is a destination of its own, but well worth the scenic drive to get there. They are just starting out but they have got things running smooth! The food is served hot and fresh. I suggest trying their version of the “Orange Julius” and their lemonade shake up! The owners are also bee keepers and use their honey to sweeten the drinks. SO GOOD! We went for lunch today and had the Zuppa Toscana soup and the panini. They have fresh bagels, and pastries. The coffee bar is stocked with so many flavor options

I had heard the buzz and decided I needed to try it. OMG. Food was awesome. Ordered a margarita pizza. Was told it would be a wait since they were busy. Within 10 minutes it was at the table and so good. Service was excellent and so joyful. Obviously they did a good job overselling me on the time and delivering early 🤠👍 Atmosphere was very interesting. Outside seating is such a chill vibe. Hardly any roadway traffic so nature is loud and conversations are quiet. Simply said "It's Peaceful" Inside is simple but very eye catching. Inside vibe is country in a city café or if you will a city café in the country. Love the colors. Coffee- Not a coffee drinker but had to try it with the honey. Ordered a "Whimpy Ranger"(Ranger's Apprentice book series reference, not their name for it), coffee/

Wonderful muffins and cheesecake. Great variety of food available including gluten free and healthy options. Friendly and gracious owner. Great service. Laid back, casual atmosphere. Great place to have coffee and a bite to eat with a friend.

Folks ... you MUST visit this Cafe for some of the best food in town!! Biscuits and gravy are top notch! Savory gravy, lots of sausage and fluffy buttery biscuits leave you happy for days. Sandwiches are super and soups are fantastic. Do not even think of leaving Buzzing Pines without a signature sip in your hand. My favorite is the honey lemonade! Run don't walk to this cute Cafe!!
