Review from Mary T.
8/19/2008
My friend took me here on the way to her parents cabin; we stopped for sandwiches and cinammon rolls.
I was forewarned that Steve, the owner, can be a little snarky. I was advised not to ask for free water or to use the bathroom - apparently a lot of bicyclists stop by for both - probably before tackling the switchbacks just up the road.
I was a little nervous that I may start off on the wrong foot with Steve since I wasn't ordering off the menu - it's not a vegetarian friendly sandwich menu. I wasn't sure which would annoy Steve less an order for (a) Roast Beef & Cheddar, hold the Roast Beef or (b) a cheese sandwich. Afraid of being labeled a smartass I opted for B, which was cool with Steve. We also took a few of the awesome cinnamon rolls to go, they're huge and homemade and under $3.
The sandwich was nothing to write home about, but bonus points for the homemade bread it was made on (mmm, mmm good). The cinnamon rolls were to die for, if I had known I would've skipped the sandwich and gone straight for the rolls.
TIP: Don't ask for free water or to use the bathroom and make sure you tell Steve what you DON'T want on your sandwich if you want to stay on his good side. -

I love the adorable tiny town of Glen Haven. The General Store is cute, not great. Kitschy stuff, ok sandwich, good ice cream and I'll let you know about the famous cinnamon roll when we have it for breakfast tomorrow. I think the ladies that work there need a day off. They were a little short on patience with the tourist customers. All in all, cute place to stop for a drink and walk around town.

BOMB Cinnamon rolls, and coffee starts at $0.25! That's right! and 50 cents for a 16 oz. this place is for real. My friends went to get us cinnamon rolls and coffee before we went on our backpacking trip, and half the town was waiting in line. 4 people. They open at 9am, so you can sleep in late and still get some cinnamon that beats the frosting off the mass marketed competition.
