    decaf iced almond milk latte
    Lauren M.

    worst coffee i've ever had. don't get any espresso drink here, i got decaf latte and it tastes how people who hate coffee would describe coffee connected to the golf course and has a pool table and shuffle board table!

    Great food.  great atmosphere!

    Came in today because I saw the Salmon Sando on Facebook. Great special. Always creative. This week it was the Salmon Sando - Miso salmon salad with a sticky rice cake (my cake wasn't really a cake but the rice was good). Napa slaw, (nice to see someone using something other than chopped cabbage around here) and a Japanese dipping sauce. I used to think the Grandover was just a resort and never came here. Now I try to come by and try the specials at least twice a month. When you come in, park to the left of the building and walk around back. Keep walking till you see the table and go in the cafe. It's open to the public. Cool little spot.

    I'll admit, my expectations were quite low for a cafe within a resort when I first came to this place. However, my expectations were quickly exceeded and now it is one of my go-to spots! Their sandwiches and lunch items are the perfect pick-me-up but the real star is the brunch and dessert. Their omelettes are HUGE but incredibly flavorful and fulfilling. But make sure you save room for dessert because their banana bread pudding and churros are superior! Often times I'll stop by for dessert after a dinner at home-- it's that good!

    We stayed at The Grandover for a wedding in November and wanted to hang out with relatives one night for a bite. This is the casual dining option that The Grandover offers, complete with pool tables and foosball. It looks like it's from the 70's or 80's. Service is minimal. Mostly counter-service, although a gal did come to our table and take our order for Nachos, Wings and Fried Mushrooms. None of which were very good. The beef on the nachos flat-out smelled like something was wrong to me, but I was the only one whose tummy was bothered by it later. The next day we popped in trying to find something small to eat at one point, but nothing was appealing, so I ended up with just some peanut butter crackers. This Cafe felt to us like it was only there because it had to be, not because they wanted us to like it. Certainly not a destination if you're not staying there!

    Surprisingly affordable and, even more surprisingly, good. Wasn't expecting much after reading reviews but we didn't have many choices after stopping unexpectedly late for the night on the way home after Thanksgiving break. At $10.50, the burger was quite delicious, from the Angus ground beef to the flakey bun. The Turkey club at $8.50 was also very good. Both included steak fries and sweet potato fries which where outstanding and served piping hot and perfectly crunchy. We ordered at the counter and ate in our room; however, the dining area itself was spacious and comfortable albeit scarcely decorated and a bit boring. This matters little however as it is connected to the game area with several large TVs screens on the walls. Area includes a two pool tables, two foosball tables, and a shuffleboard table, all of which are complementary to hotel guests. There was little service involved other than taking our order, yet it was friendly. Sanitary rating was lower than we like at 93.5. I rarely do this at hotel restaurants but I have to give it four stars and I would happily eat there again if the situation presents itself place to stay at the Grandover Resort again.

    Fig and Olive Cafe - Pistachio Spanish latte without whipped cream

    My husband and I were intrigued because we heard that Fig and Olive Cafe had traditional Turkish…read morecoffee. We hadn't had coffee this way since our Greece trip in 2019 so we went to see if it was legit. As soon as we walked in we were in awe of the dessert spread that you walk past to get to the counter. The cakes looked SO moist and delicious! There were so many tantalizing flavor combos, but what stopped me in my tracks were the New York Rolls. Think giant crispy stuffed croissants! I ordered the Pistachio Cream one and no lie, it was 6 inches across and 2.5-3 inches tall. They asked if I wanted it heated (umm yes) and it was AHMAZING.i also ordered the fig and honey latte while my husband ordered the Turkish coffee. So good and unique! In fact, our visit was so good that 8 days later I chose Fig and Olive Cafe as a hang out spot for friends and I to gather for brunch. We all got the other three flavors of the New York Roll (Chocolate Hazelnut, Fig and Honey, and Biscoff Cookie) and shared them. I got the Pistachio Crème iced coffee and it was also excellent! 10/10 recommend these pastries! We had the opportunity to sit at the cafe from 9am-12:30 and we sat in cozy leather couches and enjoyed ourselves quite nicely! Staff were friendly and helpful.

No frills and thrills, just some tables, chairs and a couple couches. Fine by me! The coffee speaks for itself. I opted for a hot pistachio cream latte. It was well balanced, not too sweet at all. I enjoyed the bites of pistachio topping. I did not try a pastry today but they all looked delicious. There was only one barista at 830am so it took a while to get my coffee. If you're in a rush this might not be a place you'd want to stop by on the way to work. But if you have time, it's worth the wait. I gave it 4 stars because the floor was very sticky when I visited. Not sure if someone spilled something or if it wasn't cleaned, but a couple of other patrons noticed the stickiness also.

I remember the vibes were pretty welcoming. I have gone once since then but during the day and the vibes were pretty chill and low-key but nothing too crazy. Just a typical experience but also a really good college outing memory. The matcha I had from there wasn't particularly my favorite but they used to keep their espresso machine up at night during the performance, I'm not completely sure if I remember correctly if they sold liquor or alcohol but the drink that I did have from there the first time I went was pretty good. The ambiance is pretty normal for greensboro, I feel like almost every establishment you walk in, there will be cracked floors but I just remember the staff was pretty awesome and as far as pastries, they had a pretty good variety and gluten free options and other food sensitivity options. I believe a few years ago, I recall an episode of "Catfish" where Nev and Max also visited this place so that was pretty interesting to experience that but honestly a pretty decent place.
