"Ok-ish coffee and a decent little shop. I tried an apple-cinnamon muffin and it was good. I asked for my coffee to be made extra hot (I don’t recall the exact drink name). It was very cold outside (around 4°F / -16°C) and I had a long drive ahead toward Grand Haven. The drink felt only warm, and by the time I walked back to my car (parked about a block away due to nearby one-way streets), it had cooled down close to room temperature. Overall: muffin 👍, but I wish the “extra hot” coffee had actually been hotter."

"This café sits on a street corner at the northwest side of an intersection, so parking can be a bit tricky. The indoor space isn’t big, but it’s filled with tables and chairs. The music is pretty loud—maybe that’s their way of helping people avoid awkward silence. You place your order right on the left after entering through the main door, and sometimes there’s a line. Maybe because the place gets busy and there aren’t many staff members, both the service and the cleanliness could definitely be better. The décor, though, is fun and full of young energy. The coffee tastes great, just slightly pricier than Starbucks and similar chains. Oh, and they have highchairs for kids—parents with little ones will appreciate that!"

"Stopped in for lattes one morning, and also enjoyed their coffee and cold brew at the Farmers Market. All were really good, and the cold brew was especially great. A gentleman I spoke to at the market also recommended their summer coffee/lemonade beverage. Finally, a place filled with gnomes and a fish named Finneas deserves a shot to make your morning a little perkier."

"Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5) “Came for the lavender hot chocolate, stayed for the cinnamon roll... and then went back for more cinnamon rolls.” Okay, so I did my homework. I was on a mission to find the best hot chocolate in Holland, Michigan, and Lemonjello’s was one of the top contenders. But—I’ll be honest—I almost didn’t go. Why? The number of reviews talking about rude service and employee attitudes made me second-guess it. Who wants to be judged for just wanting something warm, cozy, and lavender-flavored? But then I found out they had lavender hot chocolate, and listen... as a certified hot chocolate connoisseur and someone whose favorite flavor on Earth is lavender, I simply had no choice. Curiosity > fear of sass. I pulled up, sat in my van, and genuinely debated just skipping it. But eventually, the craving won out, and in I went. There was only one person ahead of me in line, so I browsed the counter—strictly there for that lavender hot chocolate, mind you—and walked out with a small bakery haul. I got a cinnamon roll that I swear was life-altering. I bake my own sourdough cinnamon rolls, and I’m pretty obsessed with them—but this one? Better. I said it. I went back inside to get two more for the road. That good. As for the much-feared service? Total myth—at least in my experience. The cashier and the guy making my drink were both kind, conversational, and super helpful. We chatted about the drink, the pastries, even how their day was going. No eye rolls. No bad vibes. Just genuine, sweet humans. When I finally got my drink (napkins and a bag already thoughtfully packed for me), I went back to my van, took one sip, and immediately regretted not getting the biggest size they offer. It was floral, rich, comforting, and easily the best hot chocolate I had out of the three places I tried in town. Hands down. So if you’re on the fence about Lemonjello’s because of some sour reviews, let me be the voice that says: go anyway. Order the lavender hot chocolate. Grab the cinnamon roll. And if you’re going—text me. Bring me back a cinnamon roll. 😌"

"The staff were very kind and accommodating. Cortado served on a wooden tray with a glass of bubbly was exactly what I was looking for while exploring Holland for the day. They were even nice enough to top me off with some more bubbly when I asked. Coffee was delicious."
