bold coffee. warm pastries. mountain-lake keepsakes.
Located on the lower level of the Lake Club, our café features locally roasted coffee from our friends at Blue Ridge Bootleg as well as freshly baked treats from our chefs. The general store also offers bags of coffee, clothing, athletic gear, and souvenirs to commemorate your getaway. Whether you need to fuel up or gear up, the Bear n’ Bean is your one stop shop.

The bold, smooth flavors we serve in every cup of coffee come courtesy of Blue Ridge Bootleg: a Sylva-based roastery owned by our very own community member, Matt King. Inspired by his family’s moonshining heritage and his adventures through the music industry in Nashville, Matt has a deep passion for crafting uniquely flavorful roasts using organic, ethically sourced beans.
If you like what you taste, be sure to stop by the roastery on Main Street in Sylva and tell them Bear Lake Reserve sent you!
