Im a local and went to visit today with my boyfriend, it had very unique and comfortable setting which was great for a date. The hot chocolate was the perfect temperature to drink right away, and not overwhelmingly sweet. The guide shack also had great little treats to snack on. Extremely pleased with this cozy little cafe.

As an AT THRU hiker it is wonderful to find a place so accommodating and relaxing. There are loads of books to read, board games to play... a whole table devoted to chess. Their coffee is exquisite, fresh roasts from local sources, and they offer treats, snacks, and even caffeine infused chocolate!

Love the fact that you can buy suspended coffee. All that means is you are prepaying for anyone who walks in and asks for a cup of coffee at no charge, homeless, low on funds, no questions asked. Great coffee, great service and tasty baked goods. Highly recommend it.

The owner is a scam artist. He claims that his business supports three organizations but he only uses their name for personal profit. He also fraudulently collects money from Veterans Affairs while veterans who need help are struggling.

Great coffee shop in the Harpers Ferry / Bolivar area. Best Ive found. All products veteran made. Coffee is delicious, and the owner, Chris, sets up a coffee stand in downtown (lower) Harpers Ferry in the Summer sometimes.

We only stopped in for a cup of java for Driver Mama as we headed out of WV and back to Eastern Shore, MD. But if I lived here, this would be my go-to place. Great vibe. Greater coffee. Loved it.
