Love the downtown location but every time I stop at this location, my order seems to get messed up one way or another. The staff is very nice but my bad experiences seem to be consistent. It is very disappointing.

Healthier, whole quality food but with the convenience of a fast food while supporting a Lakeland small business....you can't beat it!

Love black and brew in general and this southside location is great if you want a full menu to go! The express window is only for mobile orders so there’s never a line to worry about. Fantastic food and wonderful location!

Great Cuban.. didn't want to eat it all in one sitting but it just keeps making you take another bite!!

I intended on trying several coffee shops in the area since I work near by as a fun adventure for myself, however, my very first time here caught my heart. This just might be my go-to!
1. The entire staff was fantastic! They were so sweet, I mentioned to them that this was my first time trying it out and they were adamant about making my experience so great I’d return. And they did exactly that. Especially, Kat who went above and beyond with her service to me, she deserves the world! 2. Comfy and cute atmosphere. The music was great. The quote on the wall was inspiring. The décor was aesthetic and cozy. 3. The coffee was great. They have tons of unique options I intend to try- both food and beverages. Their prices are very fair as well which is a huge factor in my return. They have a nice and covered outside area; it was hot today so I did not sit out, but will when I return. 4. Hands down the cleanest and nicest smelling coffee shop I have ever been to.
20 out of 10 experience.

Love this place! Personal favorites are the club sandwich sub B&B sourdough and the strawberry basil tea ❤️

Black and Brew South is definitely my favorite hang out spot. No matter how busy the crew is the drinks are always made correctly. The customer service is always great and the atmosphere is chill with a good playlist and comfortable seating. 10/10

I've yet to have a bad experience or a bad dish. Granted Black & Brew have doomed me to be in random obsessive moods for certain drinks, I'm currently stuck on the matcha (I have NEVER liked matcha but gave it a try and omg now I can't stop) that and the raspberry rose sparkling soda. Love that the south location has the express lane since & so close to work ❤️

Had a venti nonfat latte which was so good! I’m pretty fussy about coffee -I have to say Black and Brew is using superior espresso beans in their brews. Also got an assortment of muffins to share with several people, they were fresh, delicious and huge! Four people shared three muffins and there was some to spare. I’m happy to say I’ve found an outstanding coffee stop in Lakeland.
Nice coffee shop. I had cold brew and it was good!

Black & Brew in Lakeland is certainly a popular spot, and while the atmosphere was pleasant enough during my recent visit, the coffee and biscuit I tried unfortunately didn't quite hit the mark for my personal taste. The coffee, while clearly made with care, had a particular roast profile that wasn't my preference. It lacked the robust flavor I typically look for in my morning cup. Similarly, the biscuit, though it looked appealing, was a bit drier than I prefer and didn't have the buttery, flaky texture I often crave. That being said, I could definitely see the appeal for others. The cafe had a nice buzz, and the staff were friendly. It seems like a great place to meet up with friends or get some work done. While my specific choices weren't my favorites, Black & Brew clearly has a loyal following in Lakeland, and I wouldn't discourage others from trying it out to see if it aligns with their own preferences. Sometimes, it just comes down to individual taste!

Good coffee and a nice place. Parking is limited but can park at adjacent businesses. Service is fast even when busy. Lots of outdoor seating.
I love black and brew !!
