“Being a disabled vet all I do is hard..
Put order in on pad..Wife and I made coffee..
Let's back up..We were treated as we walked in by this nice young lady..
Our order was ready and we attempted to leave.
I dropped my large coffee B4 we got outside ..
Immediately this young lady came over and said NO PROBLEM and helped with making another cup of coffee..She got staff to clean up the spill..All were so nice..I asked what her name was and she said Christy..
I wish I had her working for me..What a very nice person..I can see why Panera Bread is so popular..Thanks for having someone like her..“

“This was my favorite food in Richmond for breakfast/lunch. The people are friendly and patient with questions. The space is warm and inviting, but room for quiet work or reading too. And OMG! the food. I ordered it 3x in 5 days, including some to take home. Don’t miss this gem!“

“One of the warmest coffee shops with amazing staff - but the coffee is the real showcase. Incredible!“

“Best place in RVA for Breakfast“

“Went here to get late lunch on a Thursday. I loved the small, cozy vibe. Employees were very kind and the chicken parm sub I had was probably the best I’ve ever had (and that’s my thing). The chicken was perfectly seared and very lightly breaded - I was skeptical at first, but omg it was delicious. Also, the fellow patrons were very friendly and the staff interacted with them which is rare these days. Can’t wait to try brunch.“

“The realest hidden gem in Richmond. Tucked away in the corner of an office building, the food at Nunu’s Cafe is incredible and the owner is so sweet, she gave us a free drink and even cut everything in half for me and my friend to share! We got the chicken salad croissant (her specialty), chicken cordon bleu, and nutella and apricot cookies. Inhaled within minutes.“

“My favorite is the salmon Paninis! The environment is relaxing, and calm.“

“BEST Cafe – Inside VFMA

We stopped by this cafe after overhearing someone talking about the frozen margaritas, and let me tell you, they did NOT disappoint! There were two options, Mango Frozen Margarita and Blackberry Lime Margarita and both were delicious, super refreshing, and hit the spot. The place was busy and overall was a good quick sit down. The outside area was very nice it was just too hot to sit out there for too long.

The service was quick and friendly, and even though we didn’t try the food (they had items like pizza and pastries). It was perfect for a drink break while exploring the museum!“

“Went to grab coffee waited about 15 min for coffee and had to leave it was super slow and lost money .. truly just thought it would be a much quicker experience have never had this issue before but hopefully things will improve“

“Love the place and her charm.“

“I have been twice now and both times the food was great. The view is outside is gorgeous btw. Now as for the food the menu is a variety of dishes themed from different parts of the world. It honestly doesn’t matter what you get it’s going to be delicious. If it’s on the menu when you go I highly recommend the Georgian flatbread, the bao buns, the chorreadas, or the cachapas!“

“Our go-to for desserts, and they just happen to be vegan! Flavorful, beautifully prepared, unique items you can't find elsewhere. The savory options are amazing too, they are magicians with seitan. Don't miss their seasonal offerings for holidays! Most recently we had a delicious box of items for high tea from their Mothers' Day menu and everything was perfect and fresh. We are really lucky to have Sunflower Gardenz in our city, a hidden gem for sure“

“Took my German client to this amazing restaurant and she was blissful! I’ve been many times and try to share this phenomenal dining experience with others whenever possible. High quality ingredients, all dishes are made to order and fresh and hot and delicious, generous portions and the bread is to die for! The server was delightful and so was the gentleman running the front. I can’t say enough good things! Go, enjoy!“

“Whenever I’m in town. I visit here. Love their bagels and vegan options.“

“I do not recommend. I want to shop small but this place is not it. Very slow service.“

“Best chicken sandwich I ever ate I'm my life..Like the location and atmosphere..Loved the Nehi soda and other drinks they have without having the nanotechnology inside the drinks..Expect to see me as a regular because food was delicious 😋“

“I love this place! The food is terrific and the atmosphere cozy and welcoming. I've had the classic samosa, golden milk chai and desi lo mein. Each was out of this world! The owner strives to make his guests feel at home and encourages you to mingle and make new friends. I encourage you to try Gold Lion for the food, drink and friendly vibe!“
