“What a gem! In house drip of the day was perfectly hot and deliciously brewed. A must try- the everything savory danish. I absolutely loved the self service station to heat my pastry and doctor my coffee as I like. I’m excited to try the freshly ground for me bag of beans I chose to take home. It’s a pleasure to support a local and small business. Bonus: if you can’t make it in person, they do Friday deliveries! A must try for sure!“

“I was amazed with how decorative the place was, somebody really put a lot of thought and decorating from wall-to-wall and head to toe. A lot of history and culture in this place books pictures, they even had merchandise to purchase, they had a couple places where you can sit down and enjoy food and drinks dope little spot definitely will be back.“

“I am an Argentina native and was so excited to find out about this place. The medialunas are amazing ! the dough of the empanadas are 10/10 but I feel the empanada filling is overwhelmed by cumin. If it didn't have cumin, I feel like they would even be better than my mom's!“

“I've had matcha twice and hated it both times. I went to Gotcha Matcha today after a recommendation from the receptionist at our dentist office. I thought I better learn to at least tolerate it before we hit Japan. Well, apparently my love of coconut makes matcha WONDEFUL! Eric was working the counter and I could totally hang out with that guy all day! SUPER helpful, knowledable and friendly ❤️“

“weekend girls trip , from the food to the service, all is top notch !! i wish we lived closer .“

“Such a cozy, cute location with great service! I was excited because they have an apple crisp flavored seasonal latte! I always loved the apple crisp macchiato from Starbucks, but they did away with it. Overall, I feel like the coffee at Caribou is more flavorful and smooth. I will definitely be back here to do a little work session and try the breakfast options.“

“Google does not allow 10 star reviews, but Beyond Amazing Donuts would get it.
The name is exactly what you should expect. The way they are able to balance a light raised donut with some amount of denseness of a cake donut, is remarkable.
Great job!“

“Best bahn mi sandwiches and boba tea around! 10/10 A+!“

“Amazing coffee with an amazing atmosphere..and to top it off, they have a. Indoor playground for the kiddos“

“Love the atmosphere. Great customer service m. Good food and the coffee was out of this world. Will be coming back with friends. 1st time I have been here“

“Good coffee! Really enjoyed the lattes. My favorite is the sugar daddy.“

“I love this place! Such eclectic choices but so good! Today I had a mango latte and it was so good! Their coffee has a bit of a tang to it and I think they used mango nectar or something similar instead of syrup. Truly so good if you’re into fruity coffee. My favorite thing I’ve had from there! The people are also always so cool who work here.“

“Visiting for the week and my friend kept telling me I had to check out Green Cafe. I ordered their matcha and crumb cake, which were both great, and the vibe there makes you want to hang out for a while. Dawit was so welcoming, and Abigail was friendly, patient while we ordered, and gave us great recommendations. Definitely coming back next time I’m in town!“

“Not only is the coffee absolutely to die for, the pistachio cronut is by far the single best pastry I've enjoyed in my 34 years on this planet.

The space is lovely, comfortable and the aesthetic is very authentic. The servers are extremely friendly and informative. Additionally, in the back, they offer free copies of the Quran translated to English and Spanish for any customers interested in learning more about the religion of Islam.

Wonderful experience through and through, highly recommended.“

“I am big on supporting Black Owned businesses. We were in Charlotte and googled black-owned coffee shops. Lottie’s was a great find. The atmosphere was great. I had the avocado toast with the Blueberry pancake iced latte. My husband had the breakfast sandwich and an iced latte. Both of us were very pleased with our orders, which came out quickly. Everyone was very friendly.“

“This coffee shop was so close to where me & my sisters stayed for the usher & chris brown concert and it was walking distance. The place was so cute and the food was delicious. Lily was so helpful and made our drinks so good ! We will definitely be back.“

“Summit Coffee in SouthPark was an excellent venue for our daughter’s bridal shower. The staff went above and beyond in kindness and helpfulness.“

“10/10. Was welcomed from the start, felt like a families home. The food was genuinely just an addition at this point. Service was phenomenal, family ran business. I was hungry when I came, left full. Owner knew my friends name by memory….. MEMORY!!! That’s insane and unheard of, they care about who comes in. Plus the pool tables and ping pong tables. Friends were always recommending this spot, I was always so confused on why they were pushing it until I came, highly recommended.“

“1st of all great location. Donuts look healthy dont appear to have bugs flying around. Staff greeted me upon entering the establishment. I noticed the menu is very simple and easy to read. I ordered the Brown Butter Pumpkin Latte. I accidently underpaid because my subscription renewed and I didnt realize it. The young lady swiftly pulled out her phone to finish the transaction. Just that gesture alone meant a lot to me. I politely declined her offer and asked her to cancel. I came back with a different card and the Latte was very well balanced.

Thank you Salty Donut for treating me with Respect. Come here if you want to consume something crafted with loving kindness ❤“

“un buen sitio para compartir con personas especiales y un agradable ambiente además excelente atención“

“Really great customer service. Was able to answer my questions about the matcha and even make it half sweet since I wasn’t sure. The market overall is nice and there’s plenty of seating so you can enjoy your drink in peace. The prices are fair for uptown but as far as I’m concerned they only have one size.“
