    Strawberries and crème coco

    Very cutely decorated space with lots of local vendors displayed. A very diverse menu and even has gluten free pastry options that are separated from the others! I originally came for the coffee and didn't see anywhere that they had gluten free options but was pleasantly surprised. I tried the gluten free blueberry muffins and it was moist and delicious. Coffee was good and not too sweet either

    Got the white chocolate cherry mocha half sweet and it was super tasty! We grabbed the banana bread and it was a little dry. The seating isn't super comfy and the area is a bit cramped but it's great to take to go I think! I forget about this spot but I'll be back in for more drinks!

    This is my first time checking out Be Kind Coffee Co and I'll gladly say that I'll be back! There are lots of cute decor inside and outside of the shop and it's so inviting. I decided to get their spring drink special and got an iced white mocha w/ lavender cold foam and a slice of their cinnamon coffee cake. The drink is so pretty and it's SO GOOD! I'm not sure what roast they use, but it was smooth, strong, and it paired well with my drink. What's even better, there's a cute butterfly garnish on top (don't worry it's made out of rice paper lol). Their cinnamon coffee cake was also delicious and it's probably one of the best coffee cakes I've had in any other coffee shop! For sure I'll be back here!

    This review is going to be an unpopular one. We've been checking out local coffee spots near our home the last couple of weekends. First let me say that we always look for 20 oz. hot latte's and the first thing we noticed when looking over their menu was they only offer 20 oz. in iced coffee. Ugh, disappointing. We proceeded to order two sugar free caramel, vanilla latte's. The total was $15 something before tip which is on the high side especially since they were smaller than we typically order. They do have a cute outdoor area but the inside felt overfully full of stuff, and they had many items for sale including Be Kind shirts. It was a tight squeeze with a handful of customers inside. We like to get a sticker from places we visit to add to my tool box or cabinet. They had stickers but at $3 each we chose not to get one. Our coffees were ready in a few minutes and we opted to enjoy them in the car while heading to breakfast. We did like the cups they use which offer some extra insulation and do not require a sleeve. The flavor was good, the service was adequate but overall there are better options for us. This was just okay for us and we will likely go elsewhere.

    I can't believe I never stopped in here before! What a gem of a place in Clemmons! I'm not a coffee drinker but my husband wanted some and so I figured I'd get a hot chocolate or something. To my surprise when upon entering the whole place was decked out in Harry Potter themed decor! I'm a total HP fan so this was such a wonderful surprise! They happened to have Butterbeer on the menu so of course that is what I got. We also got a butter beer Rice Krispie treat. A conversation with the owner let us know they did this every August in celebration of Harry Potters birthday. I absolutely loved this experience and the atmosphere was so much fun!

    This place is a cute spot to stop for a quick drink. I wouldn't consider this a place to work or study, but it's a great place to grab a tasty drink if you've got the cash. I recently got 1 drink special and it was about $14 - that was shocking. Don't get me wrong, it was really tasty, but the cost was insane! The staff can be a little cranky, not always, but of the handful of times I've been to Be Kind Coffee the majority has been a rather cranky experience. But I'm their defense, the sanitation barrier makes it super difficult to hear, so I could see the staff getting frustrated throughout the day and coming off as cranky from having to basically yell at customers all day. The shop itself is full of fun craft goodies - jewelry, knitted items, handmade crafts, and more.

    Quite literally nicest place to get a coffee. Every visit I'm greeted with tons of smiles and hellos. The vibe in here will pick ya up as much as the coffee! The coffee's great too. And that patio landscaping is looking great!

    An absolute beautiful coffee shop to spend hours sitting, reading and chatting with others that stop by for coffee. We tried golden milk latte and iced white mocha with lavender foam, asked to make it less sweet. It got a lot to offer on its coffee/drink menu. I don't know why I didn't know about this place before! When weather is nice, enjoy a coffee here with live music on Saturday morning!!!

    Fall specials!

    I will forever be a fan of Be Kind, and you are truly missing out if you haven't been here! They have the most creative seasonal drinks ever and I always look forward to seeing what they're serving up! On this March visit, I had to try the Pot o Gold latte - made with cereal milk! It was so delicious, and they topped it with lucky charms! I also got to try one of their cherry Poptarts and wow. They make everything from scratch, including the dough and the delicious cherry filling. Highly recommend all of their baked goods and pastries! Amanda, the owner, is truly one of the kindest people on the planet. The name is not just a name, they truly try to put kindness into the world, not only with how they treat their customers but by being involved in their community and supporting charitable causes. Amanda always recognizes and greets me like a long time friend, and I notice she does the same to just about everyone who walks in the door. This is a neighborhood coffee shop that people feel like family. The staff are always friendly and so kind. You will feel like home here! Beautiful outside seating and some indoors as well if the weather doesn't permit. Keep up with them on social media as they do a lot of fun events, vendor markets and more! Be Kind, Clemmons loves you. I'm glad you're here!

    Adorable new little coffee place in Clemmons with delicious drinks AND treats! I'm not the biggest coffee drinker and originally planned to try their Peppermint Mocha and wanted to get decaf since I'm pregnant but their machine wasn't working so I just opted for a hot chocolate with peppermint which was delicious. My husband got the white chocolate peppermint latte which I had a few sips of and it was sooo good! We had also ordered the cinnamon coffee cake but initially didn't get it. It was very loud (good news that it was busy- but social distanced!) and I wasn't sure if they didn't hear me order it or it was just forgotten. I went up to the front to ask after we got our drinks and they provided the coffee cake and threw in 2 lemon cookies (which were DELICIOUS!). Service was great, love the decor inside and both the drinks and treats were delicious so we will definitely be back!

    Delicious coffee and baked goods. Lovely location with space to meet inside or outdoors. Friendly staff. Small, woman owned business. Buy local - visit Be Kind Coffee - highly recommend.

    I stopped into Be Kind Coffee Co and couldn't be happier. The shop is in a very small strip of shops next to the Clemmons library. Masks are required to be worn at all times (both guests and staff) and have little squares on the floor to encourage safe distancing. They have plexiglass around the entire perimeter of the counter but don't mind if you step around the corner to get a better look at the menu as depending on the time of day, there is a major glare. Luckily I found a good angle wheee I could read it. I ordered a small salted caramel latte and was pleased that they could accommodate my request of having the milk steamed to 130F. I didn't taste much of the salted caramel as the espresso seemed a little bitter and overpowering for me. This won't stop me from returning, however I would definitely try something else next time. I also got a couple of the Iced Italian Lemon cookies and oh my goodness...I need a whole box of them. I could have eaten them both but I saved one for my husband. lol Overall, it is the cutest little shop and the staff were all very warm and welcoming and will definitely recommend them to others and be back myself.

    Morning brew !

    I was so excited to be able to get by here during their open hours and as I pulled into the parking…read morelot, there were no cars. I circled and saw a sign that said "We Are Open!" so I pulled in and went inside. It was 9:58am and I was afraid that maybe I was there as they were just opening, but their hours online are earlier than that. One couple also parked and entered before me. They ordered and then it was my turn. Two more people came in after I ordered and from start to finish it was a 15 minute experience to get an overpriced latte to-go. The server was nice and friendly, but so slow. This is not the place for anyone who has somewhere to be. They have a play area for kids over to the side, but there are only small windows that you would not be able to see in if someone were sitting at the tables in front of them, so that kind of defeats the purpose of allowing kids to play while parents rest and have coffee with a friend. There was plenty of seating and natural light. It's decorated beautifully. I tried the Salted Caramel Banana Latte and it was okay. It wasn't my favorite coffee I've ever had and a huge turnoff was the fact that it was a 20 ounce latte (a lot of shops offer a 24 ounce as their large size) and it was $9.00! That is insane to me! I am glad I tried it, but unfortunately I can't waste time or funds like that again.

Their shop features a spacious interior with ample seating and a separate and enclosed kids' play area. Their menu includes a wide variety of drink options from matcha to lattes, cortados, and Americanos. The three most popular drinks are the maple brown sugar shaken espresso, honey coconut matcha, and salted caramel mocha. All of their drink syrups are made in-house. Their spring specialty menu includes three drinks: the honey pistachio, honey brown sugar hazelnut, and the salted honey lavender. The barista was incredibly friendly and helpful in choosing a drink. She recommended the salted honey lavender latte, which I got iced. It was ready quickly, and the presentation was beautiful. The flavor was fantastic. I cannot recommend this coffee shop enough. If you are in the Winston-Salem area, it is a must-try.

I passed on the food (it seemed overpriced), but the coffee left no room for complaint. I went with a marshmallow iced latte.

I'll add that I did not try the coffee (which apparently is a staple) There are so many OTHER breakfast and coffee spots in the city... I'll just say that.

Today, I went to Oasis at the Mill for a delicious Velvet Fog chaga- & kava-infused drink. I also booked a Vibro-Acoustic Therapy session for the first time! I was asked what I was feeling to experience energetically out of the various programs available and I chose "Release". I didn't know what to expect and it turned out to be quite profound and healing on many levels so I want to share my experience. I was taken to a beautiful dark teal room with Tibetan prayer flags overhead...tranquil and inviting. I put on some padded headphones while the program was being initiated, and made myself comfortable on my back on an ergonomically sculpted bed. Resonant music came through the headphones as the bed began to vibrate and undulate, my back and legs receiving a massage-like experience as my entire body felt the resonance of sound healing. My first impression was feeling I was a garden being tilled...old stagnant energy was being lifted and shaken and I felt a renewed energy pouring through me. In time, I connected my experience with the elements, grounding energy of Earth, sinking and flowing as Water, lifting and moving in spirals as Air, and the warmth and blaze of Fire...as these blended into Spirit I began to journey and fell into what felt like a sleep state. I came out of the sleep state as the resonance shifted, and it gently brought me to stillness over several minutes, softening and slowing until the program ended. I felt refreshed and renewed and was already deciding that "Oh, I have to do this on a regular basis!" And, the fact that there are programs to access many energetic states is so exciting! I can say from the bottom of my freshly renewed heart, DO try this new healing opportunity at Oasis at the Mill! It is truly extraordinary!
