That was a damn good shot of espresso, a good scone, and friendly service. Great start for my day. Thanks!

Great vibe at this combo winter sports shop/coffee bar. The atmosphere was what I enjoyed the most. Relaxed, casual, quiet. A family with two kids came in and the kids had an area to play in. The coffee selection is good (oat milk is available). The pastries are from local bakeries.

One of the best chill coffee places in North Bend. It has a nice community feel with good food and nice people.Kid-friendliness: A box of toys for kids are next to the couch.

Arete is a north bend gem and we go here at least once a week. The atmosphere is great, people are kind, and food good…I just wish it had better coffee. Our whole group of friends here agrees that the coffee isn’t the best. I would love to see them carry some other options like cafe vita, herkimer, olympia coffee, etc. That being said they make a great matcha latte and I love their alpine glow granola and will continue to come back!

Solid 5. Great homemade syrups, friendly people, quality coffee. Cute vibe inside the ski shop makes it feel like a lodge. Decent parking around, and the coffee hit the spot after the slopes on our way home.

Super cool shop connected to a ski shop, just around the corner from main street. Highly recommend a visit! They also support locals artists and brands. Very friendly staff always with good energy.

This cute coffee shop is perfectly placed next to the ski shop. We stopped in after a rainy hike, and the ambiance was perfect for an afternoon hangout amidst the backdrop of North Bend. Drinks: 5/5. I had a cappuccino and a decaf mocha. Both were delicious!Service and atmosphere: 5/5. The shop is the perfect place to duck into when it's raining or snowing. The baristas are very friendly, and the ski decor + books create the perfect outdoorsy ambiance.

I ordered a classic turkey on sourdough with brown mustard and mayonnaise. When I got it at the table, I realized it was on whole wheat bread and only had a little bit of mayonnaise and no mustard. I took it back and told them. I said I would go ahead and eat it if they would just give me some ground mustard on it. She put some in a container and set it on the side of the sandwich. There was no apology or acknowledgment of the mistake. The sandwich was definitely not worth the $10 I paid for it. It had two of the tiniest little pieces of turkey on it you can imagine. I was very disappointed.However, that being said about my food, my daughters breakfast wrap Was very good, and she was extremely pleased.

What a joke of a coffee shop. The customer service was lukewarm, the drinks were watered down, and we had a few granola looking people given us the eye, like why are we even there. If you want to rub shoulders with people who are snobby, and who think they are better then everyone else, this is the place to come too. We came in as a crew to get a nice beverage, which was very disappointing. First time trying this place out, and last time going!

This is a tiny side restaurant area with limited seating so just be aware if you're planning a meal here. Food: nothing special and small portions. Order at a counter and pick up there too. Two ladies working: one sweet, one not. Guess we just got a bad day here because the other reviews are good (which is why we tried it). Probably won't be back.
