Can't believe I haven't written a review for Afro Joes in 5 years! I LOOOVVEEE this establishment!…read moreI love the owners! I love the live music! I love the vibe! When I say coffee shop, Afro Joes is what I'm looking for. Great customer service, cozy interior, natural light, drink specials and light bites! The short rib grilled cheese is THEE sandwich to order. Their cucumber salad on the side is amazing. This time I ordered the Blue Magic which is an ice latte with blueberry and lavender flavored topped with strawberry cold foam. I love earthy flavors so this was perfect. I also ordered the butternut squash danish. It was very flaky and the filling wasn't too sweet. A nice compliment to my drink. My mom ordered the Kayla Chai which she said was good! There was live singing during my visit which put the cherry on top.

Seriously, I should be able to get a latte on my way TO my 8:00 class, not have to wait until AFTER my 8:00 class to get caffeinated!

Their drinks are amazing and they always have fun seasonal options to try. My absolute favorite is The Ridge which is an iced cardamom rose chai and it is honestly fire. Every time I order it it hits perfectly. The staff is incredibly friendly and they always make you feel right at home. If you are in the area you should definitely stop by. 2 Mile Coffee Bar is a place you will want to come back to again and again.

I wasn't hungry yet so I only had the rasmalai tiramisu latte. They served a hot drink in a cup with no handles so I had to wait to hold the cup before I could sip on it. Taste was okay but I think a rose syrup could have brought out the rasmalai flavor more. My friend had the Holly daze which was beautiful. She also had the black bean sweet potato taco which she enjoyed.

Such a cool family owned bakery! What I love the most is there homemade donuts, wow, you don't know…read morea donut until you've had theirs. I usually come here for coffee and donuts, but recently I tried a few other things on their menu. We brunch and ordered plenty, but the food missed the mark for me. The food gives heavy dinner food, made with not a drop of seasoning. I didn't feel the need to take images of the lack of flavor food. Although the food was disappointing, I'll return for the service and homemade donuts. Plus the location has a cool mom and pops vibe.

Checked out this breakfast and lunch restaurant in Beverly. It has a lot of the breakfast classics…read morealong with some plant based options. Beverly Bakery & Cafe was a lot better than we expected at first. Kind of in a not so impressive area to be honest. The atmosphere inside it though has a cozy feeling and the food was impressive with pretty big portions. Basically we were going to a few bars early when we saw this and thought to get something to eat first. It's in a kind of unassuming area with sketchy looking auto shops. The inside is a lot better though. Actually pretty impressed with it. Menu has lots of choices for any preference. Certainly one of the few great places for breakfast around here. It's about $13 for an entree which comes with a lot. Filling. I chose a hearty one, the Vegan Skillet. This has green peppers, mushrooms, onions, potatoes, tomatoes, and zucchini. A lot packed into it. She got the French Toast. Made with soy milk. This comes topped with bananas or blueberries, good stuff. For sure we could go here again. It's closed Mondays. There's plenty to get for vegans and vegetarians.

But the food was delicious and really fresh. It tasted like it was cooked here. We had the shrimp appetizer and the Sicilian pizza and they were both delicious. The pizza had really good crust, yummy sauce, artichokes, red onions, and pepperoni. I was so impressed with the food when it's clearly a winery. I got a non-alcoholic sangria and it had a wine flavored aftertaste. So I didn't like it, but I don't drink alcohol. It was better with a little sprite added. So no mocktails, but food is worth it if you don't drink. Service was very attentive and friendly. Cute ambiance with a modern, clean look.

The two ladies that work there today had such a vibrant and fun energy! They were both patient & really kind. We ordered two drinks, iced pistachio matcha latte w/ oat milk & the hot sweet potato latte. The iced pistachio matcha latte has a nutty aroma, balanced flavors & not too sweet. The flavors don't overpower one another. She used a ceremonial matcha & the matcha color is such a vibrant green, love to see it! The sweet potato latte wasn't overly strong, I think you could taste their house spice blend, I didn't taste too much sweet potatoes, however the flavors compliment each other beautifully. Overall, their drinks are super creative & they seem really innovative with their menu. Thanks for all the vibes and good drink recommendations :)

The inside is also really cute and feels very new age / modern. My favorite drink to get from here is either the iced cookie butter latte (on a day that I'm treating myself) or the classic iced latte with sugar free vanilla and sugar free caramel syrups. Not a lot of places carry the sugar free caramel option, it's mainly only the vanilla option so this is another reason I love coming here. The only thing I would change would be the consistency! Sometimes, I don't taste the coffee at all and the coloring is very light which makes it taste/feel more of like a milk drink. I like to be able to taste the coffee, which is why I do espresso VS regular iced coffee but that's about it -- just more flavor consistency with how it's made. Other than that, love this spot!

There's plenty of parking , the location is also pretty large with plenty of seating space . The staff was great, the young girl that took our order was helpful in recommendations and small talk. The vibe of the coffee shop is aesthetically pleasing , great place to work from. I tried the grove latte that was delicious! Plus added their cold foam 10/10! My husband had their chai, and probably my favorite thing was their Bacon, Egg and Cheese with Signature Sauce 100/10! We took our order to go, but I wished I would've ordered another bagel/sandwich . We were soo impressed with the taste , it was delicious!!! Highly recommend visiting if around this area .

"Bungalow block party" is an AMAZING sweet-and-refreshing summertime drink. Cappuccino's just what the doctor ordered. Sometimes you'd even hear cool 70's funk or disco playlist which is so nice to cheer up the commuters and goes well with morning coffee! In future, would love to see a selection of chocolate and ham-and-cheese (or spinach-and-cheese!) croissants, public restrooms (seems only by request now) and perhaps air conditioning in summer (though not as important). Overall, an impressive effort! Keep it up, you make our days brighter even on rainy days!
