The Little Bear Latte was amazing, and the chocolate muffin was SO good that it disappeared before either of us remembered to take a photo. That's probably the highest compliment I can give a muffin. We never got to meet the previous owner, but the new owner was such a sweetheart and made us feel right at home. Great coffee, delicious treats, and genuinely warm service. We'll absolutely be making another stop here whenever we're passing through the area!

What a cute little coffee shop! I visited here when it was a cocktail bar, so I was surprised (in a…read moregood way) to see it transformed into a coffee spot and decided to stop in. They have a full coffee bar, plus a grab-and-go fridge stocked with beer, sodas, and energy drinks. There's also a nice selection of pastries, including muffins, crumb cake, scones, cheese danishes, and other sweet treats. We ordered a cold brew, a cheese danish, and a crumb cake, and everything was fresh and delicious. One unique feature is the attached dispensary, where they offer THC beverages along with other products. The coffee shop itself has plenty of seating for couples or small groups, and we had no trouble finding street parking. Definitely worth a visit if you're looking for a cozy place to grab coffee and a pastry!

It's more of a 4.5 rating but overall a great experience. They use Night swim coffee, which is a…read morebig plus for me, I like their coffee. They use a mix of Torani and 1883 syrups with creative combinations for specials. I would prefer homemade syrups but still good. I like the vibe, it is quaint and cozy. A big plus is the barista she was so nice!! I would come back

They have such a vast selection with over 25 different on tap beers, including canned Cider. I had…read morea blast trying Pumpkin, Lemon Strawberry Lulu, Cinnamon Bun blonde, & Irish Cream. All were absolutely amazing and delicious If you see a heart on the menu they make it in house in small batches. However, once they're out, they're out. Their American Light lauger is #1 country via the On Tap Beer app!! Stop by and try it out! I also tried the Tuxedo Mocha which was so creamy and indulgent. The taste was good. They have a huge space which is great for meeting up in a group which gives a great opportunity to meet up and hang or have a great intimate convo and meet up.

It is small but so cute and cozy, I could definitely spend a few hours here reading, catching up with friends etc. we got a coconut milk strawberry latte and sugar free caramel drip coffee, as well as a strawberry macaron. Found this place searching for something new on the way down to CLT and glad we picked this place to try out. Would definitely come back and hopefully check out the Landis creamery next door! It breaks up the drive nicely and there are also a couple board games available! @azfitfoodfun

My preferences for coffee flavor syrups usually do not lean towards fruit profiles so I probably should have chosen something else. I did think the inside was so cute.

Yum!!! What a darling coffee shop. I had the salted rosemary oatmilk latte iced decaffeinated! It…read morewas delicious. I also had the chocolate croissant they get from a local baker. It was fantastic. My husband had a hot dirty chai and he really enjoyed it as well. It was a little difficult to find as the map took us to the lower parking lot. I posted several pictures to help you find this local gem! There's a really big patio and plenty of seating inside a really neat place. The service was great she was very knowledgeable about the menu and the local vendors they woke with. If you find yourself in Concord I highly recommend this coffee shop!

I walked in on Memorial Day after many coffee shops were closed and they had their open sign on…read morebright and flashing in the window. Nobody was inside, except possibly someone in the back. The food display was empty. All the tables were dirty and had crumbs and even empty coffee cups on them despite me being in only person in there. I waited for about 5 minutes for someone to appear, and nobody did. I turned right around and walked out the door without any acknowledgment. Maybe I picked a bad day because of the holiday, but, from what I saw, it was dirty and nobody was there (employees or otherwise). Don't have the open sign on if you're not ready to serve customers.

First & foremost, this isn't a traditional coffeeshop. I would describe it more as an event space…read morethat serves coffee. With that being said, I was a little disappointed with my experience. I arrived just before 9am. It was still warming up inside so it was a little cold. Inside you can find few 2-person and 4-person round tables as well as 4 comfy arm chairs. Atmosphere is tragically lacking. It was completely silent for the first half hour then the same song was played over and over again (and very loudly). Then silence again. There is a large stage for events such as poetry night, open mic nights, and live music The shop offers a good mix of hot and cold drinks. I was very disappointed in the baked good options. In fact there were just some cookies in plastic bags. My latte was just fine and it was reasonably priced. Maybe their events provide a better experience. Based on this experience, I won't be returning.

This is a little boutique shop (it auto-corrected to 'little booty shop' but I fixed it. Anyway,…read moreit's in the middle section (where the grass is) in Birkdale Village. But it's also at the end of the strip of shops and near the movie theater, which makes me come to a realization... You get five tiny donuts for $5 (and then they ask for tip on screen and since service was good I obliged) so you could sneak five tiny donuts into the movies and save money on movie snacks and popcorn but the donuts would be gone very quickly and popcorn lasts longer. You probably want the popcorn. Another thing about these donuts is that they are owned by the same guy that owns them at the state fair--not the donuts themselves but the donut booths. And they do taste like state fair donuts. If you're at the state fair, they're sensational. If you're at Birkdale Village, they're small sugary donuts in a really nice-looking trailer. The donuts might also be nostalgic for you as they were for me. My friend in junior high landed a date he had a crush on for two years. The date was at the state fair. I know for a fact they went on the Ferris Wheel and when it stopped at the top, the girl panicked and demanded they rotated the wheel so she could get off the freaking thing. This wish was granted, and that friend ditched her forever. It's also possible that he ate a donut.

Cute concept and super cute place! The service was great! I came here on opening day and there was…read moreno line. I ordered 2 half dozen donuts and got an assortment of them. They came out nice and warm. My favorite was the cinnamon sugar one. I wasn't a fan of the apple cider because it had a fake apple taste. The chocolate one was too bitter I think because they dusted it in cocoa powder. Overall, the donuts were nothing special and they were very overpriced. For tiny bite sized donuts they were 6 for $5. I probably wouldn't get them again.

The first thing I was told was, "take your time" and that gives you the vibe of this awesome, newly…read moreopened drive thru. A gem. Mr. Kirk is a certified barista who has gone through professional training to truly master his craft, and it shows. He made me the best dirty chai I've had anywhere in the United States--it's honestly tied with the incredible one I had in Kolkata, India. What impressed me even more was the attention to detail. He made my dirty chai with very little ice, exactly the way I like it, without me even having to ask. Every sip was smooth, perfectly balanced, and full of flavor. You can tell they care about quality in every aspect of their business. They even make their own ice using highly purified water with an exceptionally low PPM/TDS (he mentioned it's under 30 I think?) which speaks to the level of thought they put into every drink. Beyond the Defined, single source coffee, they also have a great selection of ice cream that my kids absolutely loved, along with delicious pastries like blueberry muffins, carrot cake, and more from a local baker. It's a wonderful stop whether you're grabbing a specialty coffee, a sweet treat, or something for the whole family. Mr. Kirk and his wife are kind, welcoming, and genuinely care about their customers. They even have a convenient drive-through, and the location is easy to get to--not far from the freeway. If you're anywhere nearby, do yourself a favor and stop in. You'll come for the coffee and end up staying because of the outstanding service and quality. We'll definitely be back!
