Paradise Mountain Coffee

I adore this place! So quaint and cute. Also the best lattes on the mountain. Try the Black Forest cherry or the mandarin orange. Yummmmm

Horrible coffee and horrible service. And WAY more expensive than the place next door. The place next door has more charm, friendlier staff and tastes much better.

I came here with my family and we each got different drinks. I got a Mexican mocha and it was delicious. My mom got a white chocolate shake and it was wonderful too. Everybody else really enjoyed what they had as well. The guy who made the drink was very friendly too. There isn’t much seating inside but there is patio seating if it’s warm enough outside.

My fiancé and I recently found this place down in Crestline and the service is amazing. The young man working both times was extremely friendly. I got a hazelnut latte both times and my fiancé tried the peanut butter coffee and the second time got a chai latte. All drinks were great and priced the same as most other coffee places. I live in Twin Peaks so I’m not in the neighborhood often, but when I’m in the area I will be back for sure. Keep up the great drinks and service!

Huge selection of flavored coffees. Sandwiches are pretty good too. Very nice people that run it.

I went recently and the latte was not drinkable. It tasted really bad, but was also very high priced. My wife got a mocha and it tasted like one from a powdered mix and not from an espresso. It is a nice looking place but we thought the coffee was awful. My suggestion is to go two doors down and go to Lake Gregory Coffee Company. Your chances are better there.
Unfortunately I can no longer recommend Lake Gregory Coffee Company. The last coffee I got there was just as bad.

The service knocks this average place down to two stars. I went in during lunch on a hot day. Well, I’m willing to forgive that they just had a 12″ oscillating fan sitting on a desk just blowing tepid air around. What I’m not too forgiving on was the slow service (especially when there were only 2 other people there).
I ordered the Turkey/​Avocado sandwich, and it was just okay. They deal you a small slice of watermelon along the way, and I guess that’s alright when you’re looking for a light lunch (which I was).
I just didn’t appreciate the dude at the counter. I asked for water with my meal, and he asked if I wanted bottled water. When I said no, and tap would be fine; he looked at me like I was wearing a overstuffed salami as a tie!
Sure enough, he didn’t get it for me! I had to ask him again for water (2 glasses). He hid in the kitchen for about 3 minutes, then came out with one glass. I repeated that I wanted 2, and he begrudgingly slunk back into the kitchen.
When he came out with the food, I was hungry and just ready to eat and move on. Again, the sandwich was okay-​Nothing more, nothing less.
Maybe their coffee is awesome, I don’t know. But if you get a teenage dude behind the counter asking what you want; be prepared for (OH!!! While I was waiting for my water; there he was pecking away at his Dell desktop!) a long wait.

I have ordered a variety of coffee and chai… they are all excellent! I buy my coffee beans here and have been happy with its quality. This place needs to have access to a great bakery chef in order to be in serious competition with the coffee shop next door. Their muffins, cookies, or bagels are mediocre. In terms of service, if you happen to get the owner’s wife, she’s friendly. Once in a while, some young 18 year old cashier is a little too hyper, distracted talking to a friend seated nearby, and not paying too much attention to your order.
