Itinerary tips

  • 1Arrive early in the morning to secure a seat by the floor-to-ceiling windows for the best views of the Escalante Canyons.
  • 2Carry a physical map or download offline directions as cell service is non-existent along this stretch of Scenic Byway 12.
  • 3Budget at least 45 to 60 minutes to relax on the outdoor terrace and appreciate the artisan timber architecture.
  • 4Check their seasonal calendar before visiting, as the coffeehouse typically closes during the peak winter months of January and February.
  • 5Order a local pastry to pair with your espresso, as their baked goods are prepared fresh daily on-site.
  • 6Park in the designated gravel lot adjacent to the building, which accommodates standard vehicles but can be tight for large RVs.
