Great little Cafe being quickly discovered by locals and visitors. Right along the Centennial Trail so you can ride or drive (there's lots of bike parking!). Clean and spacious with glass roll up doors for enjoying the beautiful Coeur d'Alene Idaho weather. Great menu selection and the Paninis made on house-baked specialty bread were delish! I added some photos and I hope you enjoy it as much as we did! We love to support local businesses prospering in our beautiful North Idaho city...

Beautiful view! But their windows are dirty during winter so dress warm and get a coffee and then go for a walk ;)

Friendly service, good prices and wonderful food! The baked goods are fresh and oh so tasty. The salads and sandwiches are filling and great value. The coffee is very tasty and better than the other place you might go. A drive through helps if your in a hurry.
