20 Best Cafes in Norfolk

“I love the atmosphere at Coasters coffee . I always enjoy my time there and appreciate the baristas recommendations as well.“

“I came from northern Virginia 3 hours away to visit Norfolk and we stopped by penguins in my opinion the mango flavor with mango pieces was the best combination out of everything.I recommend this place to everyone in Norfolk either live or visit penguins and they are way better than the slurpee at 7-11 cause they don’t have the natural fruit like penguins does.“

“My husband and I were in Norfolk on vacation. I was so excited to see there was a cat cafe in town! The space was open and very clean. The staff were incredibly kind. It was also kind to have a space with complimentary beverages. Highly recommend to anyone nearby or traveling through to have some mellow kitty love!“

“Love the accepting atmosphere 🖤 seriously means so much! My gf and I will be coming back often!“

“Everything I have had from here is great. Thursdays are the the best because it is chicken and dumplings day. I have to bring some home to the family too by request every week. This is local goodness“

“This is a 5 star place. We come here every other Sunday for breakfast. Staff is outstanding and so is the food. Gotten to know the staff and the owners quite well that we feel like family. Love this place.❤️❤️❤️“

“Best biscuits I had in my few days in town on a port stop. Large, right texture, good flavor (though could use more salt). The honey butter was an excellent addition too. The other places in town, they were so flat, like an English muffin. Coffee here was also good.“

“This business came up in my FB feed while visiting the Town Center area. I had not heard of it before, so as a bread lover it was a must try. I ordered online the night before received notifications when my order was ready; which was on time and let’s say that bacon, egg w/ jelly biscuit did NOT disappoint. I WILL be returning! so glad I ordered 2 plan biscuits for the road.“

“Not only do you get meal prep but they have options for vegan, low-carb, pescatarian, etc. Highly recommended!“

“Great coffee… ☕️😋 We just stopped by on our way to the Barry Art Museum. Thank you and happy new year.“

“Such an incredible experience! Popped in unexpectedly and we have found a new spot. The space is gorgeous and so open. I had the lavender coffee which was just mind blowing and hubby had the vanilla cold foam. We will definitely be returning!!!!“

“This coffee shop offers a comfortable setting and professional service. The location was well maintained and easy to access. Staff members were welcoming and attentive, helping create a positive experience. Overall, I enjoyed my visit and would gladly return again.“

“I usually don’t leave reviews but I was so satisfied by the service and quality of this cafe, I must share. This was actually my 3rd time visiting. The vibe is always pleasant and relaxing. The staff is knowledgeable and very informative about how different foods / juices enhance overall well-being. I’ve only gotten juices, so I can only speak on that experience. Ordered a pineapple ginger, apple ginger, and a spinach / basil juice this particular day and it was flavorful. Super fresh ingredients with the perfect blend. Not too sweet and the ginger had a nice kick but wasn’t too spicy. The basil juice was great as well. Lastly, I’ve been to several juice bars and the prices are very reasonable. Obviously, quality ingredients cost, but with this cafe, the value is there and I’ll definitely be returning. Highly recommended!“

“My daughter and I ate at Zinnia after a visit to the Chrysler Museum. The menu was varied, the service was friendly and professional, and the food was fresh, as well as absolutely and creatively delicious. I especially recommend the Zinnia burger.“

“The BEST oatmeal I’ve ever had. Followed by the best bagel and smoothie I’ve ever had. I’m in love.“

“I was in the Wards Corner area today and I decided to try Clean Eatz for the first time. I had the chocolate and peanut butter smoothie. The lady behind the register that it is her favorite smoothie because you can not go wrong with peanut butter and chocolate. She was so right because it was very good. I also had the good for you nachos.“

“i’ve never had a problem here. my iced lattes & the granby sandwich are always great. the workers aren’t chatty, so if that’s the kind of place you want then maybe skip this one- but they do their work fast & well. i’ve never waited longer than 15 minutes for a drink & hot sandwich! see ya next weekend stella crew!!“

“Always Amazing!! Best homemade bread! Had the softshells tonight incredible! Love the syds barrel cocktail whiskey! The mudpie is maddeningly scrumptilicious“

“My mom and I visited this location for the first time today. It wasn't busy at all. I went to the kiosk to order the food /drinks and our order was ready within a few minutes. We ordered the two entrees with a side. My mom stated that the half turkey sandwich that she had was a little dry and she have ordered a soup with it. I ordered the half Mediterranean veggie sandwich and it hit the spot.“

“I want to give a SHOUT out to Q he's the manager that was working today fixing orders I hope I got his name correct he's a talk black guy he had a red hat on today. He was very friendly to the customers, he greeted them with a smile , he asked if they needed anything, he also acknowledged the customers. And MOST IMPORTANT HE THANKED HIS CREW FOR THEIR HELP. i hadn't seen that type of customer service in a minute keep doing what your doing Q I hope Panera also acknowledge your hard work“
