“ Came here for breakfast. We had eggs and blueberry pancakes. The eggs were amazing! Very fluffy. The pancakes were also good. They used fresh strawberries. It’s a self serve place. It’s was packed on the morning of Memorial Day! ”
“ Ordered the teriyaki rice bowl, it was amazing! For my drink I ordered a strawberry lemonade wasn't too sugary, captured the strawberry flavor perfect. The price was extremely reasonable ”
“ My daughter and I stopped at Roast & Toast on our fall color tour mini vacation. This was a hip fun place for lunch! So many choices for food and drink that were on the menu's and the walls. My daughter quickly picked out a Avocado BLT & Chai tea (something?!?!), I was still trying to decide on my meal and thought the Chicken Salad stuffed avocado sounded interesting in the "sandwiches" selection. When my daughter order they gave her a bread choice, but when I ordered no choice was offered. Thinking it was kinda strange at the moment but figured it really wouldn't bother me with any type of bread. The order came up and I had a avocado split in half with the chicken salad in it. It blew my mind because of what I had pictured in my head!! Anyhow, I took the peel off and cut up the avocado for a delicious salad. And I'm not a huge salad person. A nice stop in Petoskey and will go again once were back there! Great job Roast & Toast!! ”
“ The Baked Alaska Chai and Chai Cow were very good! ”
“ We visited this charming shop a few weeks ago for the first time, and it was truly great! The sandwich and soup were delicious, and honestly it was the best potato soup I’ve ever tasted (and I’m very picky about my potato soup!). I ended up taking the sandwich home, and ate it the next day and it was still so yummy!! The service was incredible-the lady who took our order was so kind. We will definitely go back on our next visit the Petoskey area! Thank you!! ”
“ Super sandwiches made from a nice selection of fresh ingredients. You order, pay and the food is bought to the table. We had a Mediterranean wrap and Vegetarian avocado sandwich with coffee. Limited seating, so busy times might require a wait. Very wide selection of hand picked coffee beans. Limited street parking, but nice walk if you cannot find a parking spot in front. ”
“ My wife and I had breakfast here the other day. She purchased the French toast and I got the chorizo breakfast burrito. The burrito was delicious as was her French toast. I got some of their drip coffee and the light roast which they roast themselves was amazing. I had two cups. The asthetic was fun and I really liked the large original neon sign. You don't see actual neon lights that often these days (they're usually fake LEDs). Great experience all round! ”
“ Food is as good today as it was 15 years ago. Prices are nominal for tourist town along Lake Michigan. High quality roasted coffee beans for sale or fresh brewed. Raspberry mocha tastes like it did years ago (consistent quality). Small watercloset style bathrooms with shared sink in open (limitations of old historical building with no room for expansion). Seats clean comfortable, young people drinking coffee and working on computers or phone (true coffee shop vibe). Lots of seating for small place including some outdoor back patio seating. Menu is order, pick up when called (not full service). Free water in reusable plastic cups available. Loved the Turkey Avacado Club. Thick bacon, fresh sourdough, fresh vegetables, newer sauce (good). Orange slices as garish, no chips but some fresh bread available at salad bar area. Soups were great in past (3 kinds today, tried none). It’s what a coffee shop should be, and locally owned with lots of character. ”
