My grandson wanted to stop here so I decided to try this place again…read more They didn't have the flavor he wanted but got another one instead. I got some traditional glazed and chocolate icing ones for the rest of the family. When we checked out I discovered the one my grandson had chosen was a different price, making the total amount higher than expected. I was very surprised at the prices, both for the one and for the rest of the dozen I got. We were the only customers there and no one came to the drive through while we were there. The place inside looked like it had not been used in a while. So sad that a long time treat has become so expensive and limited flavor options. I'm not going to stop again. My grandson will have to find another treat for me to get.

The morning after the wedding, I was operating on about 3 hours of sleep, and preparing for a house full of people when the owner delivered my platters himself, right on time. Our guests, who live from Florida to New York, raved about the bagels, danish, muffins, crumb cake, cinnamon buns, and I THOUGHT it would be too much food, but our guests ate through most of it. They couldn't get enough....including those fussy NYers ;-)

Stopped by Khao Sen for dinner as we were in the mood for some Thai food. When you arrive parking…read moreis available in the lot behind the restaurant or parallel on the streets around the restaurant. Walking into the Khao Sen you'll feel like you've walked into a warm, intentional, and stylish restaurant. To be seated you'll first check in with the host and then be shown to your table. For drinks we ordered the mango passion fizz (mango, passion fruit, club soda) and the strawberry rose limeade (strawberry, rose, lime, club soda). Both looked nice presentation wise, but would definitely lean towards the mango passion fizz for the overall balance of flavors. For our appetizer we ordered a taste of all (vegetable gyoza, crispy krab sticks, crispy spring rolls, fried tofu, spicy chicken wings with side of each sweet chili sauce and sweet soy sauce) to be able to try most of the appetizers. Overall I would opt for the spicy chicken wings and pass on the other items. All of the appetizers were good but the spicy chicken wings were fried perfectly and had a great balance of spice/flavor. For entrees we ordered the Khao Soi (Northern Thai-style curry, egg noodles, crispy egg noodles, cilantro, scallion, pickled radish, shallots, lime) with chicken. The flavors were excellent and the chicken thigh was cooked to perfection. Almost if the chicken thigh was boiled or sous vide where it fell apart. We also ordered the Khao Pad (fried rice, egg, onion, Chinese broccoli, tomato, garlic, cucumber, cilantro, scallion) with sweet sausage which I wasn't sure if I would like but turned out to be excellent. The sweet sausage along with the flavors of the rice, broccoli, sweet onion, and egg made this dish one of my favorites. We were so full we couldn't make it to dessert but I heard the Thai Donuts with the Thai tea custard are excellent. If you are in the Fuquay-Varina area and are looking for good Thai food I definitely recommend stopping by Khao Sen. Looking forward to visiting again soon to try the other dishes.

This restaurant has completely removed focus from in person interactions to online. That's the only way I will interact with this restaurant moving forward.

I ordered at the kiosk and my order came out promptly. The buttermilk biscuits are soft, fresh, and tasty.

When you arrive parking can be found either on the street or in a nearby parking lot. There was a pretty long line wrapping around the coffee shop so we hopped in line. When we were at the coffee shop there doesn't seem to be enough seating for how much traffic is going through the shop as the inside and outside seating were pretty full. Unfortunately the atmosphere was a bit overshadowed by being overcrowded and several kids running around. The atmosphere inside the coffee shop feels like a modern vibe but nestled within a small town. I ordered a strawberry glazed donut and a vanilla latte. I wasn't the biggest fan of the donut as it didn't taste the freshest and the espresso shots weren't pulled correctly as the latte tasted a bit watery/thin. This coffee shop is crowded as it's really the only option in Fuqua-Varina but may try it again if I'm in the area again.

I used to love it here but I had a really bad experience recently. I walked in and asked for a…read morecoffee with citrus in it...my husband had remembered a drink he ordered there and asked me for it and that was the best way I knew how to say it. The lady behind the counter (middle-age, petite, long brown ponytail under a hat) scrunched up her nose at me and said..."we have lavender...that's the closest thing we have to citrus." She looked at me like I had two heads, but we went back and looked at old menus and saw it on there. It was an espresso with orange juice. Anyways, I changed the order and asked for a brown sugar cinnamon latte instead and when I asked her what kind of oat milk they had, she just gave me a look and said "the expensive kind." Then I tried to gently explain that I needed to know because my husband is super sensitive to gluten and sometimes oat milk has gluten and she all but rolled her eyes and said "our entire facility is gluten free." I get that...but no need to be snide about it! I was wearing sunglasses because I had been crying about some bad news I had gotten on the way to the shop and her mean attitude made me feel so much worse. There were a couple people in line behind me while she was making my latte and a sweet teenager walked behind the counter and said, "can I help who's next?" And I said "oh actually I wanted to order a cookie as well" and the lady practically yelled "I'LL GET TO YOU." and told the teen to help the other people, even though they weren't ready to order yet and were just standing there when I was ready and knew what I wanted. Then I asked for a lemon cookie and she tried to upsell me something else and I said no thank you. I was also having a tough time standing for long periods of time that day due to chronic illness and her making me wait made it worse....just abysmal customer service. I don't know if I freaked her out by keeping my sunglasses on inside or what but it felt very personal and I'm disappointed. And that lemon cookie was the worst thing I have eaten there by far. Very dry. Do better! EDIT: response to the owner: No, Michele is not always nice. You just missed it. Please see the attached picture for proof of the citrus coffee drink I was referencing. Very disappointed in my experience there and your dismissive response that somehow puts the blame back on my "bad day." Will not be back.
