WOW it is just always so good and savory I always want more, even though the bread is very thick and hearty and topped with heaping piles of avocado. I opted for a little balsamic glaze and it was divine! Always a great time at Zen, plus I got to see the new expansion. It's a great spot for meeting, working, or catching up with friends.

I recently visited Zen Coffee Company for the first time. Since I've been avoiding caffeine lately,…read moreI was hoping for a good selection of herbal teas. They only offered one herbal option (lavender mint) but unfortunately I could only taste the mint and didn't notice any lavender. They did have other caffeine-free drinks available, but I was looking for something unsweetened and low in sugar. The space was also different than I expected. Based on the name, I imagined a cozy, relaxing atmosphere with comfortable lounge seating. Instead, the décor felt a bit mismatched, almost like the café had expanded over time and the two sides were decorated very differently. That said, one thing they absolutely got right was the amount of seating. There were plenty of tables and space to work, study, or catch up with a friend without feeling crowded. The biggest downside was the cleanliness. The bathroom didn't feel clean, there were stains on the floors, chipped paint and damaged walls, crumbs around the couches and on some of the chairs, and the dish return bins were noticeably dirty inside. I stayed for about 90 minutes, and during that time I didn't see any cleaning happening, even though there were several areas that clearly needed attention. None of these issues alone would have been a dealbreaker, but together they made the café feel neglected and took away from what otherwise could have been a much more enjoyable experience.

I loved the aromas and vibes of the shop. They have an assortment of items for sale including coffee beans, shirts, mugs, and chocolate covered espresso beans amongst many other things! I got the spicy nut latte off the seasonal menu. I got an iced medium along with the dark chocolate covered espresso beans and both were delicious!! The prices here are insanely reasonable. I paid just a little over $9 for both items. I couldn't believe it! I wish this was a place where I can just sit and take in the smells as I enjoy my coffee, but there is no seating as this is more of an actual store that also serves coffee. However, that won't stop me from being a regular visitor!

With marble rye toast and fresh fruit. It was a huge perfectly cooked omelette jam-packed with the delicious sausage and veggie filling. Rye bread was fresh and toasted the way I like. I enjoyed the melon & berry fruit cul. Our server was busy and the only person working the counter, take-out orders, and the tables. She did a good job despite being very busy. Do go there soon.

My omelette was alright - the eggs felt pretty thick and the cheese on top wasn't the most appetizing. The chicken salad sandwich was a favorite of the group, as was the chili. I would probably give it another chance and try something other than an omelette. The servers were nice and helpful, and it is a nice and easy place to navigate with a wheelchair which is always a plus. Big portions as well.

My hot flat white with oat milk was awesome. It was the perfect temperature and size. This place is very cozy and personable. I can tell the staff gets to know the customers very well.

Their Griddled French Toast is also kept pretty simple, with a small dusting of powdered sugar, some strawberries and whip. Went well with their traditional syrup! Parking is a blast but I promise their food makes up for the limited spacing. Their cinnamon rolls and other sweet treats right when you walk in, looked AMAZING. Definitely going to have to grab a few to-go next time.

My coffees are always consistently delicious, and I love how festive Coffee Society is, even making new seasonal menus. I got their Valentine's menu iced coffee, which I believe was cookie dough chocolate chip flavored and phenomenal. Their food is very pricey, even for a coffee shop, and I didn't love the breakfast tacos. They were overwhelmingly just avocado and chewy sausage pieces, so next time I would probably try something else as this one was not worth the price. My boyfriend enjoyed his breakfast sandwich, so I would probably try something from their large variety of sandwiches. However, the coffee made this visit worth it. The ambiance is very bright, airy, and open! Coffee Society is very cute and aesthetically pleasing, and their holiday decor was very fun! It was packed this visit, but luckily they have tons of seating!

The location on 204th Street in Gretna is clean, open, inviting ... but noisy. It's one of those warehouse-type settings where you really have to work at having a private conversation. Seating is expecially comfortable in the big chairs, but then you have to schootch them close together and lean in so you can hear each other, which is unfortunate. Granted, tables are set far apart, but this should be in addition to. Coffee was delicious, but the beignet bites were just so-so. Granted, one should not expect New Orleans beignets outside of New Orleans, but these little donut puffs had only a light dusting of powdered sugar (which I actually was thankful for because I wore black pants!), and there was a not-overly-pleasant surprise inside with an indistinguishable creamy substance that was sort of like the inside of a brown sugar cinnamon poptart, only less so. I hadn't been expecting that. The yogurt parfait was substantial and delicious. (The staff was friendly and helpful when making selections, but it didn't occur to me to ask about fillings.) I might visit again, but maybe at one of the other locations, if acoustics were more promising.

Has a slight chalky aftertaste but is satisfying and priced about what I'd expect - $15 for a large. In response to the owner- She was looking at her phone, but I only got a bunch of umms and protein values for one size of a different drink. I pulled out my phone to show them my fitness pal thinking maybe that would help as a different type of communication and at the end of the day never got the information on protein and carbs in the drink I ordered, and again, they seemed genuinely annoyed and disinterested.

The flavors are supposed to mimic the Sonic flavors, but they're kinda bland/flat. I was really looking forward to the coconut flavor of the ocean water, but it wasn't strongly present; neither was the blue raspberry flavor. The cherry limeade presented both cherry and lime flavors, but they were weak/watery, and left a chemically taste in the mouth afterward. Both drinks had the overly strong taste and mouthfeel of artificial sweetener, with that bitter flavor at the end, too. I think the fizz is produced by chemical reaction rather than actual carbonated water, though, because the ocean water wasn't very fizzy and the drink was chalky, just like the magnesium powder you can add to regular water does. It tasted like that, too, in fact--more like the citrus flavor of a magnesium citrate supplement drink mix than the coconut-blue raspberry of a Sonic ocean water. The peanut butter protein balls were pretty good for a mid-day snack, though: you can taste the protein powder, peanut butter, and honey. Not bad. The mini Reese's Pieces were a little treat on top. I might be back to try the shakes, but I wasn't blown away by my first meeting with Nutrition 402.
