Mountain Mojo

We were visiting from out of town, and quite frankly I'm a bit of a Starbucks ho.  So was disappointed that the closest 'bucks was way further than I would want to drive, considering that the friends we were staying with was a good ten minute trek up the mountain above Fairview.  We had passed this place on our way out for the day and turned around thinking it might a possible option.  First sip was, well different.  But the more I got into my cup the more I realized I had found someone that could make a better latte than Starbucks ever dreamed of.  On our way to visit the Biltmore on Sunday, we were anxious to stop by here again.  Alas, they were closed (CLEARLY POSTED ON THEIR HOURS SIGN MONTE!), so we disappointingly drove to the Starbucks outside of the Biltmore gate.  Monday morning they were open and we were able to partack in latte heaven one last time before we left for home.

The owner and her staff were super sweet and helpful.  They have assorted pastries and sandwiches (which were good!).  Wide open space, very cute and cozy place to hang out if we'd had more time.  As someone previously said, there is a drive thru, and they also have a cute little patio on the side.

All in all a awesome little place.  We wish them lots of luck, we'll be back!

Yay, drive through coffee!! This is a super cute place with friendly staff. I've never encountered them being closed without notice, but funny thing I do, I tend to frequent businesses during their normal hours of operation. You can find these hours easily by Googling their name and looking at their Facebook page. They have never been open Sundays and that is clearly posted on their Facebook page. I don't understand posting a negative review of a business because you were having a "throw caution to the wind" kind of day and not at least calling/Googling to find out if a place was open.

I'm personally thrilled they are there and love the convenience of the drive through. Besides Mountain Mojo there are approximately zero options in Fairview to do this unless you count Sonic, which I do not.

They have a nice selection of pastries and snacks, but I have only tried their bagels, which come toasted and smothered in cream cheese. I'm not a muffin person but their strawberry muffin was super moist/yummy. They have lots of coffee drink options, although I usually just stick to regular coffee but I am glad that they offer some healthier coffee add ins (skim/soy milk, stevia instead of Splenda, etc.)

Oh and their open/close sign is adorable. Another clear indication of them being open/closed. ;-)

Good coffee and wonderful pastries. And the people are really nice. Just a little out of the normal drive path for me otherwise I would go more often.
