The scallion and cheddar scone is really delicious and I liked the spiced apple danish too. Their mocha, hot drinks and brunch items give you lots of tasty options to choose from.”

I went here 3 times and the service was fast and the boba quality was perfectly consistent the entire week. Would highly recommend for a quick grab brown sugar boba milk tea. I tried the Japanese dessert place next door for the same drink and it was disappointing in most dimensions compared to Kung Fu Tea.”

    • Take-Out

    “Beautiful place to visit and walk around. The grounds are open to the public, although you should be respectful of the fact this is a residential college (grad dorms). Dining hall is probably the most beautiful on campus with its fantastic stained glass. A smaller stained glass window in memory of geaduate students who died in WW1 can also be found just outside the dining hall. As a place to live it can be sociable and attractive, but the rooms are somewhat spartan and lack air conditioning. It gets very hot and humid during the summer. Other options are more comfortable, but living here has a very special charm.”

There’s something comforting about finding that familiar Starbucks experience wherever I travel, and this location lived up to my expectations. It’s a great place to take a break, enjoy a favorite drink, and recharge before continuing the day. What keeps me coming back is the consistency, and this visit reminded me why Starbucks remains one of my favorite stops. If you’re in Montgomery and looking for a coffee break, this Starbucks is definitely worth a visit. I’d happily return!”

    Blank Street Coffee Lands in Los Angeles, With Ice Cream on the Way

    Days after Blank Street Coffee opened in Los Angeles, a line stretched "down the street" despite 103-degree heat, a local source told Daily Coffee News.

  • Fast-Food Chains Chase a Thirstier, Younger Crowd

    Fast-Food Chains Chase a Thirstier, Younger Crowd

    Americans are drinking less alcohol, and fast-food chains have spotted a chance to fill the gap. They are courting young customers with frozen coffees and energy drinks that buyers can customize down to the flavor shot. Taco Bell has pushed harder than most, opening more than 30 Live Más Cafés inside its existing restaurants, where workers it calls "Bellristas" serve creamy chillers, fruity refreshers, and seasonal drinks alongside the usual menu. A diner can wash down a Triple Double Crunchwrap with a Pineapple Lime Rockstar Energy Refresca and its 200 milligrams of caffeine, roughly twice a regular coffee. Early results have already justified the expansion. After Taco Bell debuted Live Más Café outside San Diego in late 2024, that location saw a 40% sales lift, and the chain now plans a systemwide rollout as it chases $5 billion in beverage sales by 2030.
