I’ve been a few times and always had great service and yummy food. The coffees are top notch! Always ask for a recommendation for what you are in the mood for and the staff will find the perfect treat! When Zach posted last week about biscuits available by the dozen I was sold! I didn’t expect an 8pm email for an 8am pick up to be answered but I was ever so excited when I was answered w a yes!!! Bright and early pick up and off to share w salon staff that RAVED!!! Thanks guys❤️

When I first went to Drowsy Whaler on 09/05/25, after having a coworker hype them up to me daily, along with countless family members and friends doing the same, I knew they had to be good. Sure enough, I was already blown away by the size of their parking lot (that they share with the golf course right there too, but, still—plenty of spaces to choose from), their remarkable presentation, and how absolutely beautiful they decorate and hold their own inside says everything as well. Mackenzie had taken my order for the first time and was an absolute sweetheart, and is the reason why I get the same drink almost every single time as a true regular now because it’s just that awe-strikingly GOOD. One large iced butterscotch latte with whole milk. For the fall right now as well, their pumpkin ch

Beautiful little coffee spot by the shoreline. Truly a hidden little gem, the cease & desist iced latte had a aimple & unique taste with their homemade peanut butter syrup. The service was exceptional & super friendly. Grab a chocolate chip cookie bar as well it’s soft & sweet perfection!!! Update : They now have opens their coffee shop by Short Beach & it’s a must visit ! Absolutely amazing and cozy spot.

Location! Location! Location! The Drowsy Whaler is within walking distance of my condo and the beach. I stopped by for coffee, but I was pleasantly surprised they had pastries and breakfast foods! The biscuit was deeee-licious! The service was very friendly. I had caramel latte, bacon-egg-cheese biscuit, and a huge warm blueberry muffin. Everything hit the spot! Tasty! They open at 7am, so I can definitely see this being a spot that I frequent on my way to work or on Saturday before I start errands. It's quaint and relaxing.

i have gone to their pop up located on the stone wall multiple times and am so blown away by their growth. this new location is truly the definition of hard work, the atmosphere was so warm and cozy yet very reminiscent of their lordship roots. the sandwich was truly the best breakfast sandwich i’ve ever had, the biscuit was to die for. and the coffee was superb as always. will definitely be coming here again , especially to show support for small business
