Did not expect such a wait here at this little café. But after tasting the coffee- we understood why. We had about a 10-minute wait where we were able to wander around. There's a perfect loft seating area that was extra cozy. The coffee was delicious both times we went in. The muffins were fresh. The staff was friendly and even though they were so busy, they didn't mind us taking a bit to figure out what we wanted. Loved the variety of things when you first walk in. Things to purchase, seeds to share, etc. Also loved the little cash discount that's offered. The flavors weren't listed anywhere we could see before getting to the counter, that was my only complaint.

The food was SO reasonably priced, and good! They don’t go half way with the food effort. Their butter beer latte was delicious, and they have a bunch of really good sounding signature drinks. Such a cozy, comfortable vibe both inside and out.

So we were out walking this morning and decided to stop by Lotus Up and have a drink. My partner had a berry smoothie and I had a breve. Both drinks were very tasty and served quick. If you want a really good espresso drink, they still use a real machine! No super autos here! The coffee has a nice flavor, so go and enjoy! They have a cool view of the mine from the outside deck too.

Cute cafe with a pretty view, nice selection of gluten free breakfast and lunch items. Greatly enjoyed the panini.

This little shop was incredible! I stopped in here on a road trip and wished I lived close to here because I’d be here everyday. Our bagels we got were homemade and were the perfect consistency. We got the chai tea and coffee as well which were both delicious. The shop had very chill vibes and there were all sorts of nooks that would be great to do some reading. This is a must stop at shop!
