Cafes in South Haven

“This place is my absolute favorite coffee shop ever. Not only is the coffee amazing but the service is wonderful. If you need a pick me up or just need to start your day off right, this is the place for you. The owners truly care about their customers and offer such a positive and welcoming environment. Definitely a must try place if you are visiting town!!!“

“Super cute place! Came in and was greeted right away. The barista that took my order was knowledgeable on all their drinks and food. The drinks were good and the BLT I had was delicious. The place was clean. Bathroom was clean. Good amount of tables inside for meet ups or studying. I ordered a London Fog, BLT and their granola cookie. The granola cookie was my favorite. It wasn't overly sweet and complimented my tea very well. The BLT was delicious, bacon was perfectly cooked. The bacon had a nice bite and enough chewiness. Most places overcook the bacon and it's too crispy. Would come back to this place again!“

“My fiance and I came to the beach to relax on a Saturday morning at the peak of 9 am. It was cloudy but a good temperature to be by the water. We laid out our blanket and our tent. It sprinkled for 15 minutes and the sun peaked out a little but it was the perfect weather to be on the beach. We had snacks that we briught but the snack shack was opened. We were one of the first people to arrive and the entire coast of the beach was filled with people. It was so relaxing that we atayed for 3 hours. We watched families go into the cold water and ride on their paddle boards. You could also rent paddle boards or kayaks right on the beach. They do have a restroom connected to the snack shack but it opened up a little later than we arrived.“

“Did a little wine tasting in the area and played golf at Hawks Head and heard good things about Clemintines. Had to wait for a table about 15 minutes, had a French dip which was average but the onion rings on a stick were excellent. The historic building with tall ceilings is neat but unless I'm in the area wouldn't need to go back but would recommend trying it once for sure. I believe the owners of Clemintines and Hawkshead golf course are the same. NOVEMBER 3 2023 update Wife and I went down to South Bend to play a little golf at the Warren Notre Dame golf course in Blackthorn, which were very nice courses and on the way back I wanted to try clementines again it’s been a few years I think although our experiences here were mediocre mostly for the nostalgia. I like the old building but to wait 20 minutes at 2 o’clock in the afternoon on the Friday to get a table is Chyna Stretching it for the quality of the food. I had the French dip again with fries about 40 bucks which is OK nothing to brag about wife had a nice burger, but yeah, just a cup of coffee for her. No no drinks for me and it was 37 bucks with tip services average but I do like the old building, it’ll probably be a few years again I think next time I’ll try the Butler up in Saugatuck again that’s been probably at least 10 years or 15 since I’ve been there but I’ve heard funny things about that time if you know what I mean and I’m not that kind of guy with my 41 year marriage to my female wife anyway yeah I guess I try the ambience is kind of cool as a former car salesman I like seeing this a picture of a car for $675 in old Pontiac probably from the 40s or whatever or 30s. I don’t know what that’s about it. Actually, with the picture of the fish is from culvers, which for 15 bucks is a much better deal, believe it or not“

“The service has always been very nice here. The new waffle sandwich not so much. Waffle was dry and milly. I still prefer McDonald's similar sandwich. Everything else food was or drink has been excellent. Just very very pricey. But I suppose what isn't these days? But if your a specialty coffee or tea drinker you won't be disappointed.Parking: No parking. Drive thru only. I believe their maybe a couple spots for walk up window. Otherwise you park next door at Walgreens and walk across to walk up window. NO dine in! Or inside service.“
