“What a beautiful experience! my family and I were in town for the Monacan Nation Pow Wow and exploration of the Natural Bridge. On the way back from driving the sights, I missed my turn, and stumbled across this GEM! With my three children exploring the realm of coffee like their mama, we try around with different steamer and decaf latte flavor combinations-- Belle Vie did not disappoint! We tried Decaf Cinnamon Bun Lattes, in which were made blue!!! What a great touch for a kid's drink! Strawberry Chai-- Kid approved! And I did a delicious Iced Orange Dity Chai. The cutest heart shaped straws just made you feel the love of the lovely owner herself. Outstanding customer service and fair prices. Also, what great conversation and advice for our youngsters in regards to their money-- 'When placing money in your wallet, keep the bills face up for good luck!' For sure cannot wait to return on our next trip!”

“I take my grandson by here several times a month to get his favorite ice cream (vanilla with a little bit of chocolate fudge and sprinkles) and the staff never disappoints. They are always very friendly and polite no matter the day or time. There is one employee (Andrea) that always has a smile on her face and makes it a point to say thank you and always makes my grandson laugh (he is 15 months). This has become our favorite time together and the little tables are absolutely perfect for kids his size. Thank you for always providing the best ice cream around.”
