The Coffee Fool is a great addition to the small town of Lonsdale! It’s a welcoming coffee shop with the menu of a large chain but the atmosphere of a family owned business. Treat yourself and stop by for food, coffee, or both! It’s family friendly as well with many options for kids!

Very friendly service, and quick. The coffee shop is located in a bank but very easy to find and has plenty of seating including a nice shaded patio area out front. Could use a little more ambience (some music playing) but I might have caught them on a day it wasn’t turned on, or the bank doesn’t allow it. I had a really tasty mocha and breakfast sandwich. Definitely will be back - so excited to have this as an option when in town visiting family.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ GET YOUR COFFEE HERE!!! My husband and I moved to Lonsdale 3 years ago, and I always went to Caribou or Starbucks for my coffee. I honestly didn’t even know Lonsdale had a coffee shop until recently when they posted about their new banana bread latte—and I knew I had to try it! I started with a medium, loved it so much that a few days later I was back for a large, and not long after that, I upgraded to the extra large because it’s just THAT good. Now I’m there every other day for my coffee!!! I’ve tried some of their other drinks too (all delicious!), but the banana bread latte has my heart. I also love that they have a convenient drive-thru window, their drinks are reasonably priced, and the quality is always consistent. Unlike other shops where the flavor can change depending on the day or barista, here it’s spot-on every time. Each visit, I’ve gotten to know the owner and team a little more, and they are all SOOOO kind, welcoming, and personable. I’m so glad I found this place. I love supporting local, and I never feel rushed when ordering!! They owner truly cares about you on a first name basis. If you’re in or near Lonsdale, do yourself a favor—stop here for coffee!
