Ten, ten, ten across the board!!!!!!!…read more So I was passing through Slidell and asked a friend if he knew a good coffee spot that wasn't [insert coffee shop, you know the one]. And in that moment I was reminded why I rarely ask for recommendations because my taste runs a little too refined for most. Nevertheless I turned to Maps and typed in "coffee," and the first option was an immediate no. But the second one, the name alone, told me everything I needed to know. The only problem, it was the opposite direction I was headed and I was already running late. But I couldn't ignore that instinct. I had to see for myself. "Sorry boss, can't come in today. I was on my way to work and then a gentle fall breeze blew me in the direction of my destiny and reminded me it is a serious thing just to be alive on this fresh morning in this broken world!" Anywho, I'm so happy I stopped. The moment I walked in it felt like home, not in the corny sitcom way, but in that deeper unexpected kind of way. Like walking into a crowded room full of strangers and then seeing your homegirl that instantly makes you feel like yourself again and suddenly the day is yours. Mind you I hadn't even ordered at this point, but that's how good just walking inside made me feel. i felt like a mom that has been saying "you not getting that" all year then christmas day be grinning when baby open that present they been wanting!! Then there's the coffee, I'm still sipping my Beehive Latte now and it's fabulous. And I don't say fabulous often. I was going to go with a vanilla latte but since I sort of felt like I was in Adam and Eve's garden I wanted to try something new. The owner recommended the Crème Brûlée Latte but his wife overheard me going back and forth in my head (out loud) and suggested the Beehive since I like my coffee sweet but not overwhelming. This latte is perfect, pure perfection. I grabbed a chocolate croissant too because they looked delicious and they absolutely delivered. Flaky, golden and brown and no I'm not describing myself. The pastries all looked heavenly. Everything was perfect. Sure, I'm having an exceptionally good day already, maybe because of the weather, maybe because it's Friday, or maybe because I'm an attractive single 6'3 male and ready for eligible suitors. Either way, the service, their smiles, the coffee, the plants, everything was otherworldly. I'd go out of my way to come back. Wanna come with?

LOVE THIS PLACE!! I love the setting! I love the staff!…read more There was only one glitch and that was the girl that poured my coffee. Said I could come up for a free cup of coffee when I was done because it was a bottomless coffee since I was staying in the shop. When I went up to the counter, asked for my refill the girl started making a transaction on the cash register and I said wait! I was told it was a free cup of coffee for a refill and she said "oh no! You are mistaken. we don't give away coffee!" I said "when the girl poured my coffee she said I can come up for free refills" It took a little back-and-forth and now it seems kind of silly but... It came down to I was told one thing and then all of a sudden I was told another. So for the most part, it was really wonderful. I enjoyed the space. I enjoyed the decor. I enjoyed the overall feeling... I was gonna stay and drink the refill (which I ended up getting for free (them very begrudgingly) but it felt so uncomfortable after that I packed up and left. I will probably go back because otherwise it was a nice experience.

I buy extra when I can because of the minus side... It is almost impossible to get in here! I don't mind queuing up to wait at a restaurant, but every time I try to go they are lined up out the door. I have tried to go at off-times and it's still busy. Being so busy, the experience at the counter always feels rushed and there is nowhere to sit, so I never stick around once I have my bagels. I realize it's a good problem for a restaurant to have, but it still makes me want to go elsewhere. Most times I do. The bagels are a definite 5+ stars. The overall experience is 2 stars at best. Splitting the difference and giving them 3. I keep going back (well, trying to, at least) because the bagels are that good. Your results may vary. If you figure out a decent time to go in, give me a holler and let me know. I'll buy you a bagel!

My visit today was only OK. Nothing wrong, but nothing outstanding either. My tea was delicious and…read moremade the way I asked. The crew weren't overly friendly, but no one was rude. They were all hustling. Nobody was standing around. Consequently the line moved quickly and I got my tea faster than I expected. That's a plus, I suppose. They earned their gratuity. I don't know if they are redecorating or not, but the decor is very stark and the atmosphere is not inviting. No artworks on the walls, paint color is neutral and boring, no music playing. Hard surfaces and high ceiling makes it echo-y and the constant noise from the drive-thru adds to the din. Simply not a place I want to stay and hang around. This location does a TON of drive-thru business so maybe that's the idea - play to your audience. There is free wi-fi and hard tables and chairs to sit, but no stuffed couches or anything cushy. The parking lot at this location is poorly designed, so when the drive-thru line gets long it blocks all the parking spaces in front of the door, including the handicapped spaces. The alternative is to park on the drive-thru side of the building, but then you have to cut between the cars waiting in line and walk around the building. Not user-friendly in the best of circumstances, and if it's raining I'll go elsewhere. It's the closest one to my house and it's not ALWAYS lined up around the building so I keep going back. I love Starbucks' hot tea.

Not a faster service inside than outside, where our car would have been in the drive thru was in and out in less time than it took to get our drink. Took about 10 minutes from the drive thru. Expect about a 17 minute wait for our drink order if you order inside then. Unbelievable. We should have ordered from the drive thru. We wasted 25 minutes for a Starbucks average coffee on our drive today. Not so cool.

I think the banana reminded me of baby food so I already know that I won't be doing banana again. The location was easy to get to, the store was clean inside and out. The Menu is HUGE! There are so many items on the menu. The girl was super friendly and very helpful. It didn't take long for her to fix the bowl. I was in and out in no time. I may give them another chance and try a different bowl, but the banana is a no for me. Oh wait! I don't care for their granola it really wasn't like any granola I ever had before and I would not get it on another....but hey that's my preference, so do you!

We shared so we can both have a taste. The pancakes were delicious! I added the blueberries and whatever that syrup was...it was sooo good! The tacos were not what my husband was expecting, he genuinely loved them. The cook suggested a mixture of sweet and russet potatoes and they made the taste buds dance. Topped with some pico de gallo, the right addition. The restaurant was clean, bright and airy. I'll definitely be going back!

I had the strawberry cashew cream cheese toast and the vegan Reuben (made with turnips!), and both were incredible. No processed meat substitutes -- just creative, whole-food plant-based cooking.

The owners, Jeramee and Natalie, have amazing energy and a great story -- you can feel the passion behind this place. They close at 2 PM most days, so be sure to stop by early. Highly recommend!
