It’s a big place for coffee and teas . They also serve breakfast, lunch and dinner there. The waitress is super friendly. Thank you Layla’s❤️

I absolutely adored this place. To be clear this can be a coffee stop or it can be a breakfast coffee joint with a whole vibe. Don’t expect it to be a fast visit, dine in, relax and enjoy the slower pace. It was 100 some degree and we got blended iced drinks with alternative milk options due to limiting my dairy intake. And my singular complaint was they still put whip on it, though maybe it’s a southern thing to just not put that together as having dairy- I don’t know. Either way this was easily fixed. I ordered a turkey, egg, cheese sandwich on a croissant. The sandwich was literally huge and the best breakfast sandwich I’ve had in a long time. They grilled the turkey before putting it on the sandwich. I also ordered grits because i love grits in the south and they were okay. Nothing to rave over but decent nonetheless. We loved this place so much we visited again a few days later. And it is super affordable too which who doesn’t love?!

We had a great experience trying this coffee Cafe. The blended Blondie and hot gooey cinnamon roll are a must. We both got the French toast breakfast. Friendly fast service and all around great food and coffee.

My partner and I tried out this lovely little spot based upon the positive reviews. It is a quaint place but ultimately we were left underwhelmed. The coffee selection was good but only if you like the highly sweet and flavored drinks valued by the Starbucks crowd. If you want any traditional espresso drinks like a proper macchiato or cortado you will get blank stares. Which is fine, though slightly disappointing. We ordered the portabello panini and the shrimp roll on a brioche bun. Both were fine, albeit rather bland. The word ‘serviceable’ kept coming to mind while we were eating. While neither of us left hungry, we won’t be racing back to try any of the other food items anytime soon. We didn’t try any of their pastries or cakes, but the elderly crowd around us seemed to enjoy them.

If you’re looking for a simple place to relax and eat, Layla’s is where it’s at. They have the best coffee available (huge fan of their frosts especially during the hot summer time). I strongly recommend checking out the menu, Layla’s has a variety to choose from!The place’s atmosphere is super comfortable and spacious. The staff is friendly and willing to make your stay hospitable and enjoyable.I could not ask for more because everything that I needed was provided. Well done, Layla’s Staff!! Keep making great coffee and food!

Deceptively awesome because the size and glory of the inside is much more than you'd expect from the non-descript front of the store. Thought it would be a humble little coffee dive. I was VERY wrong. Great place with a ton of space and a big honking menu and multiple cabinets full of epic concoctions. Staff was lit with atomic smiles and friendly suggestions on what to order. They didn't warn me that "large" was HUGE and I'd almost need two hands to hoist the drink. Snagged a couple of slices of cake from the display and thoroughly enjoyed everything for several days. (Slices were HUUUGE!) My pics don't do any justice to how big the space is. You could definitely host parties here and have a band and film a rap video. It borders on cavernous. One could get lost after a couple of adult beverages.Great shop and definitely raising the bar for other restaurants on the Gulf Coast. They're gonna get more of MY business moving forward. AROO!

If you're looking for an industrial bistro style atmosphere for lunch, this is it. Lots of delicious sandwich and panini options that are great and perfectly sized for having for oneself or splitting with another. I ordered the muffaletta and split it with my spouse, along with a cup of the Soup of the Day being a white chicken chili. The selection of cafe beverages has something for everyone. I'm definitely a fan of the white chocolate mocha. Lastly, save room for dessert! The tiramisu was fantastic and rounded out the lunch fabulously.Jasmine was our excellent server. She was very welcoming and attentive, helping us navigate the menu and answering all of our questions.

We went there this morning after dropping off our child at school. We’ve heard so many great reviews about this place. We were looking forward having some of their pastries as listed on their Instagram. Well we got there earlier before the crowd came in. Their selection of pastries were limited to about five items. We shrugged it off and decided to enjoy some breakfast there. My wife ordered the French toast breakfast and I ordered the grits and eggs. I also ordered a chi tea coffee. This was delicious. A different server came out to us with our breakfast and no silverware on the table. So we had to wait a few minutes for her to return with them. Well the food was bland. My wife asked for sugar and the lady pointed to the alternative sweeteners on the table. Okay no problem there because she brought some to her. Did I mention that the food was bland? Everything was bland! You cannot even compare it to the worst Waffle House. BTW Waffle House can do it a lot better and for a better price. Yes, I did leave a tip. My wife was disappointed and so was I. Got to admit that this place was very nice and the staff was friendly! Because of the no silverware was presented whenever we sat down , the lack of pastries and the blandness of the food. I have to give it two stars. Three stars would be wrong for me to exaggerate and one star would be rude from me to wrongly slam them. For anyone who goes there for the coffee and tea , you will not be disappointed.

I eat here at least once a week. The staff here is amazing. They are really knowledgeable of what's they have available and alway make you feel welcomed.

My office is 2 minutes away, so I eat here for breakfast every morning. The coffee and atmosphere is exactly what I need to start my day. The staff is so pleasant and has become friends. The lunch menu is amazing (the bluesy chicken salad is ?). If you haven’t been here, get here, but don’t take my seat. ?

Since Layla’s has opened I have frequently visited this establishment. This place is absolutely banging. A great breakfast menu and plenty of coffee options. There are SO MANY lunch options to chose from (the grilled cheese and tomato soup are the best around)!!! An extremely friendly staff that is always smiling and so welcoming to customers. If you haven’t been you are missing out !!!

Favorite spot on the Gulf Coast! Put in my headphones and sat and read a bit before getting breakfast! The staff are helpful and super sweet! It’s just a perfect place to relax or even hang out with friends/family.

Valentines lunch with the mom & hubby was a success. The server was so sweet & quick. Another place to add to my favorites thanks to us being served and left alone to eat & have conversation. I find that so respectable. The atmosphere is so relaxed too which is such a plus. My Mushroom Vegetalia was epic! Didn’t get pics of the French Dip but mom & hubby enjoyed it. Thank y’all for the fabulous experience.

First Layla's is not a fast food place, neither is it your average D list grab and go coffee place so don't treat them like one. Layla's really is optimized for the person who enjoys the cafe' atmosphere where it's filled with conversations, the smell of food, and coffee. What I enjoy the most is talking with the friendly and engaging employees and baristas as they serve you and place your orders. I particularly enjoy their gourmet grilled cheese sandwich and combo it with my favorite cup of blondie. If you're starting off your week with that "It's Monday" mood and you're looking for a bustling and lively environment to add to your meal and coffee, then Layla's for you.

Tried this place today.. underwhelmed. While looking at the menu I realized I could get the "French Toast Breakfast" for $9.50, or I could order the exact same items a la cart for $7.50. French toast itself was unremarkable, but the "scrambled eggs" was just a fried egg that they chopped up and threw on a plate. Hot cocoa was good, and my wife got a breakfast sandwich that seemed decent.
