One of my favorite coffee shops! Love the variety of flavors and you have to try the Turkey fig sandwich!

I walked into the coffee shop with high expectations considering all the restaurants around tend to be top notch. I ordered an iced caramel coffee which ended up being hot which is fine, it was all right. I ordered a bacon egg and cheese on an everything bagel, and that's really where I had to draw the line and write a review. The everything bagel I ordered was practically an almost nothing bagel with no seeds or any toppings, not even a bagel hole. As I sat with it throughout the day I came to the realization that I paid a quarter of $100 on a palatable coffee and a bagel that was at best average. read more

I'll give this place 4 stars because the coffee and food was delicious. It is a bit pricey, but I don't mind paying the high price if I get exactly what I asked for and at least decent service. My meal (avocado toast) was missing 2 of the 3 extra ingredients I asked for (which were listed in their menu) which cost 1/2 of the full price of the meal. I also didn't get a fork, so I went up to ask and the lady behind the counter made eye contact with me and when I went to speak she would look away. Eventually I just started talking so she would have to listen. Cute place though! Rude staff. read more

I have heard about this coffeehouse for so long but never got the chance to come in and enjoy a coffee until now - despite the many times I've been to the place next door lol. But today I took the opportunity to finish some work documentation here since I was working in the area. I ordered the creme brûlée latte hot and boy oh boy I was so pleasantly surprised at how smooth this latte was. Tasted wonderful and loved the latte foam art. Presentation is everything to me and they obviously nail it. So excited to be working more often in this area... think I'll become a frequent customer. read more

Great ambience and place to sit down and do some work! The chocolate chip scone was MASSIVE and I told myself I was going to eat half but when I looked down the whole thing was gone. Super cool place and the baristas were pretty nice! Will definitely come back again read more

I loved this place as a hip study joint when I lived in Norfolk as a college student at ODU, and I love this place as I've started up a new thing to check out coffee shops and play board games with my old ODU roommates. The latte art is absolutely fire every time, or maybe "absolutely leafy" as that's what it looks like when you post it on Snapchat or Instagram. Always try to snag your beverage "for here" to get it in a mug to display the intricate designs by their talented baristas. Iced drinks "for here" come in a cool "Cure" tall glass. I didn't even know that was an option. I've tried various things off their caffeine menu. The green tea latte tastes like grass if you don't get it sweetened. I order it with soy to get the light sweet 'oomph', but it's best with honey to sweeten it further. I guess it's probably an acquired taste if you order it as is either hot or iced. The chai latte is amazing, but the chai does come out of a box- also wonderful hot or iced. (Pokemon Go days in the summer heat- it's such a refreshing taste.) Still thinking I'm a barista, I like to over-caffeinate (I know that's not a word, lemme live) and order quad shot lattes. Honestly, every signature latte on their menu is amazing, but I tend to alternate between Sugar Cookie and Creme Brulee. It's definitely not as sweet as Starbucks, so that's a huge plus. Always try a specialty drink though. They had a variety of iced teas the last time I was in. The only food I tried was a millenial favorite- the almighty "avocado toast" with a roma tomato added for $0.50 more for a total of $6.50. I loved how seasoned the crushed avocado was because I tend to find avocado toast I order at various establishments lacking in... love/flavor. Salt, pepper, & minced garlic goes a long way. It comes with an abundance of avocado spread and a nicely sliced serving of tomato on 4 slices of slightly burnt, multigrain toast. I like my toast on the lighter side, but with the avocado spread on there, it was hardly noticeable. It was surprisingly very filling, so $6.50 wasn't bad at all. My friend ordered an everything bagel with cream cheese, and that bagel was humongous. It looked good to me, and she finished it without complaints. The decoration is super hip, and I find their customer service quite fantastic. They host events sometimes, and it's pretty spacious on the inside. We were lucky to have found a table to seat us and play our games (a 4-seater table with a pew as one of the seats hehe). This place can be used as a study spot, a place to catch up, and a place to play games. Parking is parallel parking, but do read those signs before you make that "where's my car" phone call to the City of Norfolk. On a nice day, definitely venture out and take a stroll to waterside or check out their awesome neighbors who specialize in macarons and various baked goods. This is an awesome location, and it's busy for a reason. read more

I make this place a regular stopping point on my visits to Norfolk. Mainly coffee (their seasonal options are incredible), but this time I got the Smoked Rosemary Club. Absolutely blown away. Immense flavor, great freshness, and this bread is awesome. Smoked aioli really makes it. Definitely give these guys a shot if you're in the area. read more

Delicious coffees! Awesome flavors. Totally recommend. A good deal of pastries as well. I got some kind of Horchata iced coffee and thought it was a solid 4.5/5. Can't say anything negative about this, it's a great addition to the area. read more

I'm disappointed at myself for not having written a review on this place sooner. This place fits the area perfectly, as it has some European coffee shop vibes that match the outdoor cobblestone streets and historic district. It is divided in a few rooms - the main one, a very bright and open area where you mostly place your order (big variety of teas, coffee and yummy food choices); a room adjacent to it, with several tables where you can work, or just enjoy your time hanging out surrounded by walls showcasing local artists; and another room you can rent for work spaces, events and such. I'm all in for chai latte - always. That is my first pick, everywhere that offers it - and this place is no different. That is not to say I haven't tried a few other teas. Regardless, they are all delicious. I even tried their chai latte with bourbon on a few occasions and it never disappoints! Really, go for it! Their seasonal offerings are always a solid choice, since you can expand your drink horizons and always be satisfied by how delicious they are. As for food, it's definitely a nibbles type place (big win in my book), so I've tried a bunch of different goodies. The charcuterie and cheese boards are a must - whichever you order, you'll be in for quite the treat! If I could change anything about them, I'd prob have more bread coming in them from the get-go, but they're happy to bring out some more, if requested. Also, their avocado toast - YUM!! That's all I'll say about it. Even though I don't go to Norfolk as much as I used to - every time I do, I try to put some time aside to come here. It also helps that a good friend of mine lives super close, so I can force her to tag along. Which brings me to parking. This would be the only not so great aspect of Cure. But what can you expect in this area of Norfolk? Still worth it. Altogether, this place has a great chill vibe, also good for some remote work, fitting for this area, and anytime I visit this place, my day is instantly better. read more

I absolutely love this coffee shop. It's definitely more than just a regular coffeehouse. The food is not subpar by any means from cheeseboards to salads to sandwiches I have yet to be disappointed in this place. Gets busy but the team here is always hard working to get their customers taken care of. Happy to be a customer and can't wait to continue trying the new menu items that arise in the future. Oh and I forgot to mention they do Cocktails, beer and wine. That is a vital detail. read more

I'm sure that this place already has a high Yelp standing, but I simply wanted to add my "yep" to this coffee house. I had a wonderful latte, but it was the turkey and fig sandwich that prompted me to sit down and review. Yummy! Is there a better way to praise a sandwich? Not sure that there is :-) Yummy! Oh, and they have mineral water, which is important for those of us that want mineral water. read more

Cool spot, cool vibe, great selection. Recommend if your on the area to visit and indulge

Staying in Portsmouth but drove over to check out Cure. Only about 20 minutes away and street parking available. Plenty of seating. Ordered at the counter and dined in. I ordered the Californian and hubby ordered the Hangover. The coffee was delicious and just the right start...and so pretty. The Californian was perfect and not to heavy. Fresh tomato and yummy avocado and Gruyere cheese with egg. The au gratin potatoes on the side were yummy! I tried a bite of hubby's was good, but too heavy for me to eat for breakfast. Breakfast was less than $30 and totally worth it, I think very reasonable. Good thing I don't live here or I'd be making this a regular stop. read more

First time customer and it was a meh experience where i'll have to come back another time and try something else. The Black Currant iced tea i got was good and very refreshing on this warm day. The avocado toast with added tomatoes on the other hand I will most likely never get again. It was very bland and not very pleasing to eat and after waiting about 25minutes just to get it, the toast was cold. I don't know why it took that long just for toast but I wasn't in a hurry so it didn't bother me to wait, plus the cafe was pretty packed. The staff was very polite and helpful with questions, so even though i'm not a fan yet I will have to come try another food item and maybe one of their coffee's next time. read more

GREAT location, friendly staff and good food. It is in the Freemason area and sits on a quiet corner with pretty architecture, but the parking is limited. The food is great, but I was a little let down by my latte. I ordered a specialty Samoa latte but it tasted like a plain vanilla latte (still good). This wouldn't stop me from going again though. I would definitely recommend this place to do work, meet up with a friend, or enjoy a nice day in the outdoor seating. read more

The parking situation is terrible but I won't hold it against the coffeeshop. I parked in a public garage a few blocks away. I'm exploring Norfolk after recently being stationed in Portsmouth. I assumed this would be a cliché over-priced coffeeshop that specializes in avocado toast, and I was right in some ways. However, they dodge the cliché by actually being very very tasty. I got the jalapeño cheddar biscuit with bacon and side of potatoes. It came with BBQ sauce, and that was the true star of the show. Altogether with a black coffee, it was $11. There is plenty of seating and its a mixture of typical coffeeshop college students on laptops and people brunching. read more

Cure Coffeehouse - Jalapeño cheddar biscuit with fried egg and bacon. Side of potatoes with the house BBQ sauce in the middle (the sauce is fantastic). - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

This place was absolutely worth it. If you're looking for a coffee shop that does latte art, this is the one. Not only are their lattes pleasing to the eye, but they are delicious. I had the pleasure of trying their sugar cookie latte and their matcha green tea latte. They were both really good and they get served at your table if you choose to sit in. Side note: they are phasing our the soy milk with oat milk. So eventually their only option for non dairy will be oat milk and almond milk. I tried the oat milk in my sugar cookie latte and it tasted like a warm bowl of delicious oatmeal. It was subtle but I could still taste the oatmeal flavor. read more

Starbucks has great service with a smile, seems like they are glad you came. Even in the drive through they are always friendly and want to get your order right. This CURE does the opposite. Will not return to this location. read more

This is one of my absolute favorite coffee shops in the area! It has a very relaxing, cozy vibe to it. It's located in the cutest neighborhood in the Freemason district. It is surrounded by beautiful old homes with the streets covered in cobblestone. I've come here quite frequently in the past couple years. It's definitely worth the drive from Virginia Beach to Norfolk. They use Counter Culture coffee in their drinks. Their menu has a good variety of drinks, especially lattes. My favorite drink to order is their Chai tea latte, either iced or hot. Their lattes are my second favorite drinks to order. You can't go wrong with whatever flavor you choose. They also sells tea, lemonades, beer and wine. I recommend trying their Sangria; it is very good! They also serve food and small bites. It's all very fresh and tasty. I love that they also have frequently changing food/drink specials too. I am always bringing friends here to try it and they always love it as well. I've always had a good experience when coming here. It's a great place to hang out, to relax, to study, or to catch up on a good book! read more

Modern, hipster, comfy, bright, clean, and it smelled oh so yummy in here!!!! I dig the vibe for sure. Definitely makes for wonderful pictures. I do it for the 'gram!! Beautiful latte art, spacious coffeehouse with tons of natural light, I would seriously come here all the time if it wasn't for a couple of major highways over from where I live! Too bad my girlfriend and I had lunch somewhere else prior to coming here because it really smelled so good! We each had a hot latte to sip on while chit chatting. Can't wait to come back and try other things!! Ooh, here's a couple of "the Bads" worth mentioning. - I wasn't feeling a couple of the servers. They barely cracked a smile and was just "ehhh." Nothing to make me feel good about esp for my first visit. [Maybe I'm just too spoiled by the cool & friendly baristas with smiling faces at that other well-known coffeehouse with the green straws.] - Awesome that they have 2 gender-neutral bathrooms for their patrons HOWEVER -- the one I chose to use had a freshly used and un-flushed toilet. I assumed a man used it because there was no toilet paper in there and it had a lot of bubbles. That was just gross. I couldn't help but wonder if they didn't even washed their hands. read more

Cure Coffeehouse meets all of my coffeeshop demands: great option of coffee drinks, actually tasty and fresh food options, cute and productive ambiance, and local charm. There are a vast selection of specialty coffee drinks, and most run from $3-4 which is a reasonable price. The black coffee is also tasty and runs $2 a cup. Their brunch menu is absolutely incredible and includes everything to homemade jalapeño cheddar and egg biscuits to stuffed french toast and bagels with lox. They have very satisfying and filling options for your morning food cravings! The coffeeshop has a few different rooms that are suited for both camping out and working on your computer (there are a decent of plug outlets against the wall for laptop charging) or causally dining and chatting with friends. The old Norfolk buildings and cobblestone streets outside of the shop make for great window views. Inside it has a lot of unique and quirky decorations and art that make it fun and inviting. Unfortunately it's street parking only but the area is very charismatic and pleasant to walk through anyways. I would definitely recommend this coffeeshop if you haven't tried it already! read more

I don't know if it's my choice of foods or if something happened in the kitchen, but I've had some great dishes, lately. The coffee is still amazing, with lots of different curing options (oh, I get it now!). The ambiance is even better, with the addition of a co-working space. However, I come back for the salads & the avocado toast. I've had two of the salads. Honestly, the Mediterranean was so good that I kept just getting that one. I forced myself to try a different one, just to see if it was a fluke. It isn't. These are legit good salads. I couldn't try a third because I miss my Mediterranean. O.o Do not judge me. See for yourself. I've had it 5 times and I still think about it every time I go there. Salad and coffee or wine, because "balance." read more

I used to come here all the time whenever my husband has his duty days and I would get off from work to come here and use their wifi heheh. This place is super duper cute, the female baristas are nice but the guy one just doesn't smile, that barista life doesn't suck that much man. It doesn't ruin my time there, I just wanted to put it out there lol.. But yeah anyways, I usually always order the chai latte whether it's hot, cold, soymilk, almond milk. It's super delicious either way. Although, it is a bit expensive, the food here is great as well too! Plus follow their instagram! It's cute as shit read more

It's a shame that it has taken me so long to write a review of this place. I am a wannabee Norfolkian who happens to live in Chesapeake but has been obsessed with all things Norfolk before it was cool ;). On any given weekend I would stop in and grab a coffee, sit on my phone and people watch before heading back out to explore. I have never been disappointed with my coffee, or my food. The atmosphere is always great, its not too loud, if you want to get work done but with the expansion the people who want a quieter vibe tend to sit in the back area. At times the personalities of the employees can be a little cold. They don't need to be my friend, or give out a cheshire cat vibe, but a have a nice day never hurts. On one occasion for a blogger meetup, we all got $10 day passes to meet in the private back room where we got unlimited tea and coffee and our own wifi password. I typically only drink black tea, but the pass gave me an opportunity to try ones I wouldn't normally want to commit to. The sandwich I wanted was unavailable because they were out of Avocado (Sunday brunchers love that stuff) so I was able to make up my own combination. Roasted turkey, bacon, tomato, cucumber, goat cheese, mesculin, and garlic basil aioli on whole wheat bread. It was delicious and something I would definitely get in the future. Now, if only they could make their way to Chesapeake and open up a location there, I would be their #1 fan. read more

Cure Coffeehouse - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

Cure is such a lovely coffee place in a gorgeous setting with unique and delicious drinks. They have a long list of latte flavors including but not limited to: spiced orange, churro, honey cinnamon, candied orange mocha, lavender mocha, and many more. I have stopped by three times and always enjoy a well-crafted latte that is made quickly, yet with care. They often have special seasonal drinks. Today I enjoyed the spiced orange latte, made with a perfect balance of flavors and served at a just-right temperature. There was a very long line when I arrived but all of the employees were working so hard to keep things moving reasonably quickly. Even though they were keeping the line moving, the person who took my order was friendly and didn't make me feel rushed. They have lovely indoor and outdoor seating areas. I know Cure has several other locations in the area, but the one in Norfolk is the only one I have visited so far and it has never disappointed! read more

Still a fan. Take 2 for me this round, and I went to work for a couple of hours there ... pretty busy this time. Tried something new: a creme brulee latte w/ almond milk. Another pretty coffee, and just a great spot to sit and work and be surrounded by great white noise. Not sure if I mentioned on my last review, but it's street parking only and can be a pain, but hopefully you get lucky! Can't stay away from that cobblestone. (Check to see if the Yelp deal is still going on for check in for 10% off!) read more
