8 Best Coffee Shops near Crossnore

“Went in with Mom after visiting the Blair Fraley shop. That place is amazing! But Miracle Grounds was a bit of a let down. They're on the expensive end of coffee shop fare, which is whatever...it supports the school & that's fine. But my BLT was extremely scant on the bacon & Mom's club was about the same. We had some questions about the coffee by the pound which were met with a vacant smile. Ok...had thought about a purchase, but if you can't be bothered, fine. I ordered lemonade because a 20 oz Coke was $2.75. It wasn't very good... watery & weak. Mom ordered bottled water & instead of directing her to the cooler to grab it, the counter girl handed her a cup of ice and a " water's over there" thing. She was friendly enough, but felt like she wasn't interested in serving us. When our food came out, despite the fact that we were the only table, she walked past us, asking if we went outside. Weird. It's a small dining room. I could be persuaded to go back for coffee, just not food. Add to our disappointment the fact that reviews & word of mouth had built the place up to begin with.“

“My daughter never eats her kids meals. Maybe a chicken nugget or two…. Maybe a bite of grilled cheese. She’s three, so you know how it goes. She ate the heck out of her ham and cheese sandwich from here. The bread was SO soft and the ham and cheese were really high quality. My husband and I had a very delightful meal, and the staff was so friendly. We had a great experience and will be going out of the way to return here for another great meal. Back again for ice cream after a trip to the playground nearby!“

“Now my favorite coffee place ?? the team is pleasant, knowledgeable and anticipatory! The products are delicious, great chai tea, moist and flavorful muffins and not to mention they even have stick boy cookies without having to drive to Boone to get them, (iykyk)! A year ago I would not have given the same review, but the new team in charge is doing a stellar job! Bravo!“

“Love the quality offerings. The fresh bread is amazing. I got the Lox Benedict and my hubs the Montecristo. Both were so good. The strawberry matcha over ice was lovely as well. We also grabbed a couple cookies for the road. They were the best I’ve had in a long time. We got the peanut butter and the chocolate espresso. I wish I bought more than one.“

“Five Stars! Big Mike's has awesome coffee drinks and they are always adding new and seasonal things to try. The staff is always patient, helpful, and knowledgeable. If you are anywhere near Newland, make the trip. Best Hidden Gem in the High Country!“

“I found this place next to the road and I stopped by curiosity. I found the best pumpkin pie bread with pecans . I want the recipe because is something out of this world. So chewy and thick and I can taste all the ingredients: the pumpkin, brown sugar, pecans etc oh Lord. Whoever made this deserves an award.“

“We broke our tent down in the rain and were heading back home but wanted something for the drive. Everything else looked closed but here is this fantastic guy serving amazing coffee and warm blueberry muffins.The Coffee Tin was such an absolute treat.“

“Such a cute little spot tucked into a shopping center in Banner Elk, NC. They are serving up coffee beverages, teas, and smoothies. They had a variety of local made baked good and they have live music some days! Would be such a cute spot to come watch some live music.“
