I’m here to call out the people who post 4 and less star reviews about this place with comments like “I wish it stayed open later” and rude things about the decorations. Removing a star from your review because you don’t like one of their paintings is cruel. Email them privately and recommend they make some changes. Businesses like this can’t exist without 5 star reviews. Please consider changing your review to 5 starts to help them succeed.Yes, it matters that much. And for what it’s worth, I’m a total stranger. This place is perfect. The staff is so friendly. The food is delicious and affordable. And finally, they operate a lever espresso machine. For those who don’t know, this is a serious devotion to the coffee craft. When you order from here, take a moment to look at the machine and the process involved. It’s art! My oat milk latte was perfect from start to finish. Balanced and rich. Absolutely wonderful. Thank you to the staff for making our morning. Cheers
Amazing staff! Love the coffee. The nita muffin has unfortunately gone down hill though. It used to have a generous amount of scrambled eggs and nice quality bacon and cheese. I was claiming best breaky sandwich in Whistler! Now it tastes very processed and below average. It went from a 10 to a 3. Still will come back for the coffee and the wonderful staff! Really just hoping that this review helps them want to make the muffin good again!.
Made a special trip to this Café, just to have their Nita Breakfast Muffin. I must say that it's by far the best I have ever had. This rustic style Cafe is cozy, in a wonderful location, surrounded by the mountains of Whistler BC. The service is very good, with a great selection of breakfast goodies to go along with their excellent variety of coffees. Only a few minutes drive away from the ski slopes. It's a little small capacity wise with limited seating indoors. There is, however, additional seating outdoors if needed. Jacquie and I highly recommend this cute, Café. Also, the Nita Lake Lodge has accommodations available for travelers seeking a lodge style resort stay. Review of the Lodge to come in the near future.
Made a trip to this cafe on the last day of my trip to Whistler. Nested in the Nita Logde by the lake, the vibe of this cafe was serene. Their choco chip cookie was the largest cookie I have ever had in my life and it paired deliciously with the strong flavor of the latte.
Overall I was a big fan - things often sell out a bit early so I recommend getting there earlier. Pretty latte art, some tasty smoothies, really tasty pastries, and the coffee was pretty good as well. One of the best chocolate croissants I've had! More third wave/specialty coffee vibe (think blue bottle etc.) than second wave (like Starbucks) or first wave (diner). That's right up my alley, so it was pretty pleasant for me. Good stuff!
