We came on a Sunday mid-morning and this shop was hoping with a steady line and two busy baristas. The atmosphere is quaint and cozy, everything was clean and tidy. The drinks were really good and I’d definitely return. There is seating inside and out, plenty of shade by the outdoor seating. We were a party of five and we were all happy. Unique decor and overall a gray morning choice! I was impressed with my chai latte.

Such a hip and funky coffee shop. Cool vibes and lots of options. My coffee qas on the milky side but had great flavor. Will definitely return and try something new!

I’ve been mulling over moving to this area for a while, and one of my “concerns” was great coffee shops near by, or rather, the lack thereof. I can scratch that off my list, because this place is absolutely delightful!

Nice little gem! Solid cup of Joe and many options on the Cafe menu to please everyone. Such a cute and cozy little spot. Although it took what seemed to be a decade for them to toast the bagel, it was substantially above average for an everything bagel. They went a little light on the schmear of cream cheese, so ask for extra!

Opposite of prosaic; Initially drove by this hidden gem and decided to turn around. After a 3 day camping trip and 5 hour trip – The “Golden” was a nice kick start to my habitual coffee needs and journey back home.

Great coffee shop, excellent bagels. This is a must stop if you are in the area and need some coffee. Love to bring the kids here in the morning and get bagels and drinks. Staff is great and it’s a cozy little spot on the way to Bryson city.

Cardinal Coffee is a cute coffee shop located right on US-74 in the town of Bryson City. They have great smoothies and bagels, and also sell nut butter bars and various chocolate bars. I enjoyed a toasted bagel, coffee, and a smoothie. All smoothies come with frozen bananas and then you can pick another fruit to go along with it, your choice of milk, and add-in a superfood if you wish.
