“Incredible selection of fresh, soft, flavorful pastries and breads! We finished running a 5k in the area and went straight here for celebratory treats! The chocolate donut melted in the mouth but what was most memorable was the gorgeous flavor of the chocolate! We also enjoyed an Ube Latte! I can’t wait to come back!Prices are actually really great when you compare to other cafe prices (like Amelie’s) or even compared to donut shops!Seating indoors is awesome!“
“Nice and chill hangout spot to enjoy some delicious banh mi! I ordered the "Our Special" banh mi, a Vietnamese iced coffee, and a bulgogi beef bun. The bread had a really nice crunchy exterior and it was nice and soft on the inside. One thing that really stood out to me on this sandwich was the pickled daikon and carrots. They were a little more sweet and acidic than I have had from other places which I loved! The other ingredients were fresh and they made their bread in house which I appreciated.I wasn't a huge fan of the Vietnamese iced coffee but this was just a preference thing. Nothing about it was bad, but I just don't have the palate for it. Mine also wasn't super sweet either, but I believe you can ask them to crank up the sweetness if you would like it to be sweeter.As I was walking out, they were restocking their baked goods shelf, and I was able to snag a bulgogi beef bun! This made me so happy as I had wanted to try one of these after seeing photos of it from other reviews. The bread was super pillowy and the meat inside was extremely flavorful. Enjoying this bun was a great way to end this food experience, and I left happy and full.“
“Definitely the best cafe I've ever been to, the owners are extremely kind and friendly and take care of your orders, the space is beautifully decorated with lots of wood and leaves and relaxing music, it's very warm ??I tried the turmeric latte tea with oatmeal ?, a CACHITO (they are one of my favorite bakeries in the world, they are stuffed breads from my country that in my three years here I have never gotten in any pastry shop), a fruit cheesecake from the passion (that you feel the real taste of the fruit and it is not a fruit/flavor that you can easily get here) ??The latte was on point, the flavor of the spices was very balanced, creamy, THE BEST turmeric tea I have ever drank; The cheesecake had an interesting texture between a mousse and a cheesecake with a layer of seeded gelatin on top and a rich crust underneath; and last but not least, the piece, the flavor/consistency/seasoning/texture of the bread and the filling were ABSOLUTELY perfect, they taste the same way as in my country, it was a pleasant experience to get something with so much authentic flavor ??But this does not stop there, some time after enjoying my dishes and reading a little, my partner arrived and I enjoyed his empanadas (fried corn) filled with shredded meat, they were thin, crispy and the meat was perfectly seasoned and I took the opportunity to let him He tried the little pieces and I stole some from him ahahaha he also ordered a blackberry ?ada (if I remember correctly) and even the lemonade was incredible ?They have an exquisite variety of coffee, tea, finger food and desserts, and an auto-refill of water ?Seriously, I am delighted with the concept of both the space and the food and drinks, they honestly deserve the best and always a lot of success, you can feel the love they have put into this business Obviously we will see each other soon and more often ??1 trillion % recommended ?“
“We absolutely love having an organic coffee shop around the corner from us! We always stock up on their whole been coffee to have a home. It's incredibly delicious! We tried both varieties and both are super! The family that owns it are the nicest and most welcoming people. I love all the little touches they have especially the coloring pages for the kids. Wish them all the best success!!“
“I stopped in for a latte and took a few pictures of their menu board since I didn't find them when I looked on YELP. The service was friendly and my drink was hot and delicious! I'd definitely come back to try other drinks and some of the pastries as well. The inside is small but clean. The outside has some cushioned outdoor furniture and market lights in a sectioned off part of the parking lot. I believe there may be a tv outside as well.“
“Wow! I had no idea there was legit Italian food in Indian Trail! Italian owner and it shows. I was just looking for a coffee shop and found so much more. I ended up having a cappuccino and the Vinny (Italian panini) and it was incredible. You need to come here and check it out!“
“Love Good Cup! They are GOOD people serving GOOD Coffee! ❤ They are set up at the Matthews Farmers Market every Saturday morning with the espresso machine as well as whole bean or ground coffee bags to purchase if you want to make a GOOD cup at home. ❤ The Aslan is one of my favorites! I also follow them on IG @goodcup to get up dates on any pop ups, events, etc they will be at around the Charlotte area!“
“Great experience, lovely atmosphere, and good coffee. Quintin was incredibly friendly and helpful - she took the time to make recommendations for a first time visit and helped me find a gluten free option on the menu. Highly recommend!Dietary restrictions: Gluten allergy“
“My daughter introduced me to the Uptown Tea Shop in Waxhaw a couple of months ago by buying some loose leaf tea for me. It wasn’t until yesterday that I went to the shop with her to see for myself. From the outside, you see a house and there are three shops inside. The quality of the decor could be slightly upgraded. The Uptown Tea Shop is in a medium size bedroom which has been converted to a little store.Here against the walls are nearly every flavor and types of loose leaf teas you can imagine. I typically like herbal teas and caffeine free teas and finding something new was fairly easy. There are also tea accessories such as canisters to keep your teas fresh. The prices I found to be inline with the quality of the teas. The customer service associate was polite, helpful and welcoming; needless to say I will be supporting this small business in the future.“
“I stumbled across this place on Thursday, 02-15-24 while picking up dinner at another establishment. I was impressed by the gelato & truffle flavors; some were regular while others were eccentric.The young lady serving me was pleasant and offered me samples of gelato. I tried the caramel whiskey and was instantly in love. I bought a small cup with a scoop of caramel whiskey and cookie butter. While deciding on flavors, she informed me that each flavor came in either dark or milk chocolate. I choose a dark chocolate amaretto and a milk chocolate salted caramel. This was a good splurge and I'm looking forward to returning.“
“Took my brother to drink some coffee and eat something, and we discovered that they also serve cocktails, wine & beer. It was Friday so they also had bingo and really cool music. The staff is really nice… The atmosphere was really fun! We loved it! Will come back for sure!!!“
“Anytime I am in the vicinity of Brakeman’s, no matter if I need it or not, it’s coffee time. It’s a quaint little home that they turned into a full-fledged business. The concept is locomotives, so the interior exposed brick, hard metal accent pieces, and even names of beverages all point in the same direction. The customer service is incredible and usually has the same faces, so getting to know the staff on a first name basis is very common. The bakery they contract with is a local non-profit and puts out amazing products. They also have other food related items for purchase for convenience. Where it all matters, because upscale coffee shops are white noise these days, the beans and roast are impeccable. I’ve tried a little bit of everything on their menu and the espresso is very high level. I highly recommend the Ticket to London. Pricing is on-point and reasonable considering the quality of product and location of business. What I really enjoyed, just as much as the rest of the aforementioned aspects, was the customer demographic. You get a variety of everyone in there, but yet it doesn’t feel overcrowded, overhyped, or commercialized. It’s just a good local spot with great coffee and top shelf staff. I highly recommend. Rating A“
“Everything I have tried at this bakery is delicious, like in a good bakery in Europe, just wish they would have their prices displayed. Bought 4 items and the bill was $30. I understand the quality, but still, I believe that to have prices displayed should be a good business practice.“
“Drinks were out quickly! The thai tea was a perfect sweetness and the tea flavor was amazing! The strawberry tornado was fresh, and the yakult separated into two parts, not sure if that's supposed to happen! Boba was sweet, soft, and chewy!“
“My husband and I moved here from Florida in December & we found this coffee shop & it is UHHHHmazing!!! Chubby bunny is my current fave! & my husband loves the Mocha blended cooler (frappe)! We love it! Totally recommend!! This shop is 20 mins away from us & it’s worth the drive! “
“Great experience! I got the lavender blossom latte which was divine and the everything bagel with egg, bacon and cheese which hit the spot. Very nice staff and ample parking. Very chill vibe inside with a variety of seating options and board games!“
“I had come already 2 times to Milk Cha Cha and it’s been great!!! I loved their boba tea. You can select the level of sugar of your drink and they also have a lot of options to choose from. I tried the strawberry and ube swirl. Their employees are nice. Will definitely be back soon.“
“Had the most amazing Hazelnut Crunch Latte today! They have good selection of coffees, coffee beans and accessories. The baristas were very nice & helpful! My favorite part was the sign that says “Coffee! If you aren’t shaking, you need another cup.” That is totally my vibe! Fully caffeinated! Will be back!“
“Came here after eating dinner nearby. Tried the Matcha and Vanilla twist soft serve. The ice cream was good a large portion, which I suppose justifies the higher cost.Want to come back and try the refreshers. Heard it is similar to drinks in S. Korea.Cute atmosphere and friendly service!“
“Best coffee in the area! So glad a Summit opened in Ballantyne, because there are so few local coffee shops around unless you want to drive 20+ minutes to Southend. The staff are so sweet every single time I go in, and the seasonal coffee menus are absolutely amazing! I crave their Everything Danish literally all the time “
“My only regret about The Lights Cafe is that this was my first visit...I wish I'd tried it sooner! I had breakfast there and loved the French Toast. My friend had the breakfast sandwich and she said it was delicious too. The service was incredible and it's such a great and relaxing atmosphere. I will definitely return for lunch soon and/or dinner on a Friday or Saturday evening.“
“I cannot say enough of how incredible the atmosphere, the culture and the people are all about Red Carpet Treatment ? It’s just amazing here and to me it is the best coffee ever!Please Open up more I’m thinking Huntersville would be a Grrrreat Location! ?“
“This quiet cafe is a gem in the rough. I ordered a cappuccino and cinnamon muffin which came to about $12 with a modest tip. I'd expect to pay around $14 at the most for coffee for two. Orders are done on the front counter (no kiosk), seating is plentiful and there's even a digital fireplace for a toasty get together! This quiet cafe feels like home though home also has a cortado on the menu;) (if I had to nitpick).P.S. The owner is really genuine and makes you feel like family rather than a customer.Coffee✓ Conversation✓ Community✓Don't sleep on this cozy cafe!“
“Amazing waffles!! Best batter I have ever tasted. I have an extreme sweet tooth so this was the perfect brunch for me. Quiet and cozy atmosphere. Perfect for my children. Not overstimulating. Great prices. We all had drinks and waffles for under $50 and there were 5 of us. I would come back again.Kid-friendliness: T and the tables are super sturdy for rambunctious kids.“
“The boba tea is always delicious whenever I stop in. The staff are nice, but don't always greet you. The store is clean and bright! The only real downside is, I'm not sure what air freshener or cleaner they are using, but it's always so strong when I go in and I can't wait to get my drink and leave.“
“Don't let the tiny size end fool you! Talk about fall off the bone good. IRO has some of the BEST fall off the bone chicken wings EVER, so juicy, so tender, extremely flavorful. Everything I've eaten here has been delicious. The service and the ambiance are top tier!“
“AWESOME! The coffee is good & the breve is better . OMG! I was not expecting the breve to be soooo delicious. Hats off the older lady who made my Breve is Sunday morning. Also grab a Strawberry Lemonade Probiotic water! Good good! I will return when I visit again.“
“(Translated by Google) Mmmmmmmm ? nothing that a good coffee can't fix, each coffee is made with love ?.Mmmmmmmm ? nothing that a good coffee can't solve, every coffee is made with love ?.(Original)Mmmmmmmm ? nothing that a good coffee can't fix , each coffee is made with love ?.Mmmmmmmm ? nada que un buen café no pueda solucionar , cada cafe se hace con amor ? .“
“I came with my three kids since two had a teacher work day. Trying to make memories.IKYK. Anyways, my kids were actually being manageable but my son decided to channel his inner babe Ruth. A perfectly executed throw of his milk bottle directly into my latte. As a mom I wanted to cry. I was overwhelmed and outnumbered. Not your moms donuts was so beyond kind and helped me clean the mess( I insisted on helping because my slugger was the reason for the now spilled coffee) then they went ahead and made me a new coffee. I’m so very thankful we ventured out to see them today. They are not only kind and so understanding to parents but also the donuts were sooo tasty. I HIGHLT RECOMMEND THEM!“
“Definitely a step or two up from Starbucks. This place is clean and runs like a well-oiled machine. Honestly don't even prefer Starbucks, but it's an easy decision when places like Waterbean exists. Cleanliness and attention to detail are important to us, and this place delivers on all accounts.“
“Waterbean Coffee exceeded my expectations! The customer service was outstanding, with a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The coffee was exceptional, offering a delightful blend of flavors. The location added to the overall experience, creating a perfect spot to enjoy quality coffee. I highly recommend Waterbean Coffee for a fantastic coffee and a pleasant ambiance.“
“A nice little coffee shop. I love that they have everything from danish and treats to breakfast food. I got the bagel with egg and bacon today. It was tasty. They have good coffee as well. The girls have even made me a chocolate sundae as well when I was craving icecream. Good job on the customer service. The only advice I would say is to make sure the staff does not rush you out right at close. This has happened to us a few times and it doesn’t make you feel as welcome coming in Later.“
“Hands down the best bakery in the town. We visit here every weekend from south carolina to have breakfast. Chocolate banana muffin and orange hazelnut rolls are our family favorites. Staff is extremely polite and thoughtful. They make great coffee too.“
“The new older is extremely nice, friendly and much better then the previous owner. I am excited to see that changes he has made and the food is fresh and delicious. Had their new chicken salad sandwich and a coffee and it was great!They also now carry Waxhaw creamery ice cream. I don’t have to go downtown waxhaw to get their ice cream“
“Tried this bakery for the first time today with my Mom. The staff is unbelievably kind and Yalexis (apologies if I butchered the spelling of her name) definitely stood out as an absolute leader. She went above and beyond to make our visit warm and hospitable. The quiche was fresh tasting and had great flavor and the chocolate croissant and cappuccino were delicious. It would be great if management could implement bringing sugar cubes (or just sugar) to the table for dine-in coffee orders rather than having to get up and grab some from the to-go bar - a very small detail but a suggestion nonetheless! Seating is tight but cozy and love that they play French music and stock a variety of market items from soaps to dried pasta and sauces.“
“Staff members are always polite if not always highly competent.Food always delicious even if not the dish ordered.Atmosphere? That’s a thing? Old people eating breakfast! I’m just glad they weren’t passing out prunes.$33.00 for two breakfasts plus $5 cash tip!“
“Cool little spot that makes a great Americano. They have a lot of sugar free flavor options for their latte's that actually taste great too! The guy working was very nice, but seemed overwhelmed when there's a line of people, so be prepared to wait. Prices are very fair.“
“This is the place to go for some great Columbian cuisine. I have loved it for years. I moved away from this area years ago but when visiting last week this is where I wanted to eat.Super people that work there. I have always had a good experience.“
“Drive thru only coffee shop that offers coffee, smoothies refreshers, and some food. Service is quick and accurate, moving the line quickly, and staff was cheerful and friendly. Everything was good but nothing wowed me where I feel the need to go often. Will probably go back since the location is convenient, but I typically prefer coffee shops where you can sit and enjoy.“
“Great first visit to SPB! We had the American burger, the kids chicken tenders/fries and kids grilled cheese with fries. The burger was "fine". The side salad was great quality but was mostly apples and little kale....maybe it's mixed up in a big batch and when they scooped out a serving, it just so happened to get all the apples? the hand battered tenders and the grilled cheese on the sourdough roll were fantastic BUT THE FRIES!!! They were the star of the night!! YUM! We had a couple mixed drinks that were made just how we liked them. I couldn't believe how quickly the drinks came out. It was impressive. My husband will skip the burger next time and try the Reuben instead. We can't wait to come back! It was a little tricky to find. It's between Dick's and The Container store“
“What a hidden gem!! I was hoping for a decent cup of coffee and needed food but this place far exceeded expectations! The atmosphere seemed almost magical decorated for the holidays. The staff was so friendly and helpful with deciding what to try. The wrap I got was really good, made fresh and the coffee…. Wow! Best latte I’ve had in a while! Delicious and strong, just the way I like it!!“
“This is a wonderful place with kind staff members and some of the best baked goods I’ve ever had! I had the cheese scone and the chocolate chip cookie, both were phenomenal. The cookie was warm, right out of the oven. One of the best spots in the Charlotte area!!“
“Really lovely Starbucks! The morning crew is cheerful and kind. They made me a drink while I waited for a friend who was late, and while I waited I enjoyed watching them interact with their customers. I'm not a Starbucks person, but I'd come back to this one :)“
“I was in Myrtle Beach SC at a restaurant for breakfast and got coffee with my meal. Well to make a long story short me and my friends were like this is the best coffee we’ve ever had! Asked the waitress what it was and she told us it was Java Jeff! I said well I gotta get me some soon lol! But I was very pleased with the coffee and I’m hooked now! I’ll definitely be trying to get me some soon!!!“
“We went in trying to get some birthday donuts on Wednesday, and the two women there were so helpful in helping us decide!! They were also very patient when we were unable to pick them up two days later thanks to complications from the birthday girl... we spoke to Kara on the phone and she was very understanding. Excellent customer service, and we'll be going 15 minutes out of our way for future donut needs!! Thank you! :)“
“Cozy place to sit down and do some work in, prices are Starbucks prices so I'd say just nothing special, but they never mess up my name so doing well there. Great smell in there though, and nice seats to sit in. Baristas are nice and friendly and the atmosphere is great.“
