Lakeside St. Coffee House

While the prices are a little high, i can appreciate that this is a small business who’s truly making everything in house. I love writing here.

Don't come here if you think you'll be able to get on and get out. Not sure if we came during a one off day but it took 20 minutes waiting on line to order two coffees then another 10 minutes to get our coffee. The operations were terrible. Two people were making coffee and food. The person taking orders at the host stand was also running orders to people. There was another person who seemed to run an order out every once in a while. The place easily holds 100 people with two large rooms, a basement and outdoor seating. I don't know how you're supposed to be effective with one person making coffee and one person making food. The property is nice but they need to find a way to be much more efficient. Mocha was 7/10.

This place is a hidden gem. Lakeside Street Coffee House has a little bit of everything, and that’s what makes it awesome. You walk in and there’s a quiet space if you want to study or work. Then there's another area where people are talking and hanging out — totally different vibe. You can sit outside right on the water, or head downstairs where they’ve got these cushy chairs and a chill lounge setup. The decor’s cool, a little artsy, a little quirky, just feels good to be in. Sometimes they’ve got live music, which makes it even better. I had the pesto melt — and yeah, it was really good. Solid food, not just your typical coffee shop snacks. Overall? Good food, great atmosphere, and enough different spaces to fit whatever mood you’re in. I’ll definitely be back.

What a great old building converted into a cafe! Plenty of seating in this historic building. I had the Ham and cheddar breakfast sandwich. Delicious! Their lattes are excellent. 5 stars.

This is a very unique coffee establishment that you do not see very often. The writing orders by hand on prices of paper and passion from welcoming stand to the bar staff is rarity to see. They do use square to take payment but do not utilize to create orders which square is designed for. This makes things slower by a lot. The food came pretty tasty, specifically grilled cheese with garlic and fresh tomatoes was very good. The lattes also great. Plenty of street parking around the place. Indoors and outdoors seating (when warm). Very simple place with no extra special ambiance. All chairs in this place are random and seem more like collection of random items than decor.
