Picked up some goodies for a customer while working in the area, a couple days ago. I searched Yelp…read moreand found this wonderful place! Great customer service, and every kind of sweet delight you could ever want! Cookies, cinnamon rolls, and everything in between. Cakes too! I didn't eat anything but my customer was super stoked to receive it all. Was about 30 bucks for 12 different treats. I would definitely come again. Easy to find with decent parking as well.

I'm always happy when I walk in the door to see the large selection of baked goods to choose from. I love the blueberry danish especially! I wish I could move Freeman's to Lexington. The place is very clean and staff is friendly as well.

Bean Bar is a comfortable little spot that's easy to get to and easy to park at, with plenty of…read moreroom in their sandlot parking area right out front. Inside, the ambiance is calm and relaxed, with hip jazz playing softly in the background. There's a mix of regular seating and a small bar section, plus a pleasant sitting area that should be great when the weather is nice. The staff were friendly and welcoming from the moment I walked in, and they were genuinely helpful with recommendations--particularly when I was deciding between drink options. I ended up with an egg and cheese sandwich on a Kaiser roll that came out steaming hot: the roll was light and fluffy, and the whole sandwich was simple but really well done. I also had a shot of espresso that arrived in a very nice presentation on a wooden board, paired with a side of sparkling water, which was a thoughtful touch and made the experience feel a bit special. On their recommendation I tried the honey lavender latte made with local spicy honey; it was unique, flavorful, and not something you see everywhere. Overall, Bean Bar feels like a low-key, well-put-together café with good parking, a relaxed vibe, kind staff, and drinks and food that show real care.

Very cute spot in Florence. BIG shared parking lot…read more Seems fairly accessible and seating is size/ability friendly. Loved the menu choices, which included a chaga matcha that I thoroughly enjoyed. Not many options for breakfast, but what they have is good. They have "topping" options as well, I had the strawberry jalapeño one, not enough jalapeño for me personally. Staff super friendly & they are pet friendly too, dog bowls are outside along with their outdoor seating option. In addition to drinks, simple syrups, and coffee, they also sell jewelry, totes, etc. Would come back and visit when I'm back in town!

Only $7 to taste multiple wines (which change week to week), and you don't have to wait a month for the next 'wine tasting'. Grotto has an actual tasting bar, plus an option to order a plate of exotic salami and cheeses which can't be bought locally. This gives Grotto a huge advantage over Mickey Fins which is set up like the inside of a gas station. Mickey fins has competitive pricing, and a very large selection, but does not do daily tastings, nor do they have a bar/sit down area. Both know their wines well, both have been friendly and helpful. Overall, this is a wonderful place to buy wines or to relax and socialize with friends!

All of this is true of The Grotto, and more. Vince and Maura, the owners of this lovely wine bar, are amazing! They have really managed to create something special. They both really love and really know wine! And they love to talk with people, from the beginner to the expert, about vino. Vince has amassed a truly impressive and unique collection of wines that you won't be able to find anywhere except maybe Charleston. And he's very good at helping people find interesting and unique wines at great prices. If you like or love wine, check this place out. I can't emphasize it enough. You won't regret it!

It tasted more watery and less creamy but we didn't add any of those add on or supplements so it's hard to say if those give it the desired flavor. For just the basic Joe Blow person off street it wasn't that memorable, the portion I did think was large so I does reflect price well. For food we got Buffalo chicken & Caribbean jerk wrap respectively. The Buffalo wrap was good, spicy enough, and filled me up despite the portion not looking like much. The Caribbean wrap was in name only, rice, beans, and a Caribbean sauce w plain chicken but for Tropical Smoothie standards it's probably alright. There is one table w chairs inside but it's for waiting not eating inside. This seems to be popular, lots of people walking in for smoothies only. For me it's not some place I'm gonna run back to, if I'm in the area I might do it again.

Saturday I had pistachio on a waffle cone, it was delicious. We retuned Sunday for the Watermelon fruit bowl. It was just as good. The icecream here is not homemade. That was the only disappointing part of my visit...which meant I'll pay for both days of delicious icecream later. That won't stop me from returning! LOL. The service was Top Notch! Everyone greeted us and answered all questions. Great Staffing!! See you all soon.
