Good Harbor Coffee & Bakery
111 W Front St, Traverse City, MI
Crema's Take
“Nestled in Traverse City, this espresso-focused spot nails both the craft coffee and the cozy gathering-place vibe, where regulars keep coming back for precisely made cortados and lattes alongside some genuinely exceptional house-made scones. The team moves with purpose even during the rush, balancing efficiency with genuine warmth, and the creative specials (think lavender lattes) show they're not just pulling shots by rote. Whether you're there for a slow sit with a cappuccino or grabbing a full breakfast before heading out, the care in both the cup and the kitchen makes it feel like the kind of place that remembers what you ordered last time.”

This is my favorite coffee shop in Traverse City. I always try to stop by when we are in the area. Today I had a vanilla latte and cappuccino scone, both were wonderful! I would definitely recommend stopping by.
Love this coffee shop! It is very welcoming, the staff are very friendly and the atmosphere is very inviting, cozy and the drinks and food are excellent! Diverse array of drink and food choices and love the early hours. Very convenient to stop by before work! Highly recommend this special coffee shop :)
Visited Good Harbor Coffee and Bakery recently and had a pretty good experience overall. • Coffee: The coffee was satisfying and well-prepared. It hit the spot and definitely warrants a return trip for caffeine lovers. • Breakfast: The breakfast options were decent, though I found them a bit on the dry side. Some tweaks to the preparation could make the meals much more enjoyable. • Atmosphere: Cozy vibes and a welcoming environment make this spot great for a relaxed morning or a casual meet-up. Would recommend for their coffee, and with a few improvements to the breakfast menu, this place could easily become a local favorite.
Good Harbor was busy when I visited, but the staff kept things moving along at a good pace while being amiable. I tried the special latte at the time, a lavender latte, and was very happy with it. They didn’t skimp on the lavender flavor, so I found it delicious. This was a good choice for a quick caffeinated pit stop.
Today was my first visit to Good Harbor Coffee & Bakery. My Cortado was perfect and I also had a delicious raspberry orange scone and the savory scone. They were the best scones I’ve ever had. The staff was extremely friendly. I definitely recommend Good Harbor and will be coming back again soon.
