The shop offers a cozy spacious patio seating as well as some 5 top and 2 tops inside. Service was welcoming and friendly. It was our first times, I tried the cold Carmel macchiato coffee and it was perfect sweet to coffee ratio for me:) I would def order again. It's a nice meet up place or two f you want to have a meeting unless you sit on the patio during leaf blowing of trimming hour then you might have to yell every other sentence but other than that great and cozy!

Was looking for a nearby coffee spot after class and decided to try out Honey 2 a Bee. My low…read morerating is because I didn't love their matcha. To be fair, the employee gave me a warning that they use ceremonial matcha which is much stronger and asked me if I wanted to change it out for a more typical matcha powder they use for other drinks. I've had great ceremonial matcha before so I didn't think it would be a problem but for some reason I felt like my drink tasted so odd. I got their spanner matcha which was described to be salted maple flavoring. I'm not sure if it was the matcha or the maple but it had a weird aftertaste that I can seem to describe it other than an expired taste. Because the employee gave me a warning before I would go back and try something else in hopes of a better experience.

I've been here a total of four times prior and never had complaints. Today was different. I…read moreunderstand the changes of seasonal menu but I just seem like the recent menu had no main concept. My boyfriend got the pizza and it tasted as if it were a frozen pizza. I got the bang bang shrimp and it was good (6/10). The problem that I have is the pistachio gin fizz was an absolute no! I am a HUGE fan of pistachio and gin so immediately I had to get his drink but it was beyond mediocre. Are we drinking only syrup??? My last complaint is the coconut tres leches dessert.... Do we actually know how to make tres leches or we just naming desserts however we want? Just curious. It came out super hot, steaming more like a molten cake. As a Hispanic woman, I was expecting a creamy moist cake to celebrate my graduation but this was not it as well. Last but not least if the bald manager with the orange shirt wants to eat in the back of the kitchen, not the problem I get it (I work at restaurants) HOWEVER shoving your two index fingers into your mouth to get your debris out was my last straw. Like I said I like this restaurant and never had problems but today felt like a fever dream there.

I came to Alter Ego Tempe this morning with my wife expecting brunch... and instead got an…read moreimmersive, interactive escape room experience called "Find the Hostess." We walked in and were immediately greeted by... absolutely no one. There was what might have been a hostess stand, or possibly a modern art installation--I'm still not sure. After doing a full lap like we were casing the place for a heist, we confirmed: no hostess, no sign, no clues. Just vibes. Naturally, we migrated to the bar like confused NPCs waiting for a quest. Stood there. Made eye contact. Practiced our "we are clearly humans who would like to eat" stance. Nothing. Not even a nod. At this point, I was considering ordering invisibility cloaks since we were clearly already wearing them. Finally, we move to the front of the bar where someone acknowledges us and says, "Oh yeah, just go to the hostess stand... she'll be back." Ah yes--the elusive hostess. A mythical creature. So we return to the podium of mystery and wait. Eventually, an older woman appears (possibly summoned by our collective confusion) and seats us. Progress. We sit down. No water. No greeting. No "hey, glad you solved the puzzle and made it to Level 2." Just silence. About 7 minutes later, two guys get seated right next to us. Within 4 minutes, a server rushes over to them like they're VIPs at a Vegas club and takes their drink order... while we're sitting there like decorative furniture. At that point, we realized we weren't dining--we were extras in someone else's restaurant experience. So we left. To whoever manages this place: you might want to check the tape. Not even to fix things--just to appreciate the full cinematic masterpiece of how impressively this all unfolded. Honestly, it'd make a great training video titled "What If We Just Didn't?" Would I come back? Only if there's a leaderboard next time so I know how close I was to unlocking the "Order Coffee" achievement.

The food came really quickly and my order was actually 100% correct which is amazing! I ordered the sweet crêpe of Nutella and banana, and it was the best thing I've ever eaten! Also one of my favorite foods! I also got the BLT with avocado and it was so so so so good! I was really impressed with the fact that I got everything right it was delivered quickly and the food was actually amazing even on takeout. I highly recommend checking this place out. It was so so so good. I'm not sure about the ambience of this place because I had to be delivered, but I would probably check it out in their actual location because it was such a great experience

First things first: this place is wildly unassuming. Tucked into a shopping center next to Food…read moreCity, you might not give it a second glance from the outside... but the second you step inside, it's a totally different story. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and full of personality -- with cute doodles on the walls and a cozy, homey vibe that immediately makes you feel like you're in the right place. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by Lafayette (who I somehow knew from like 20 years ago -- small world moment!) and told I could sit wherever I liked. Within minutes, I had a menu in hand and water from their self-serve station -- which, by the way, I LOVE. The menu? Massive. We're talking everything from crepes and waffles to sandwiches, chilaquiles, and more. Basically, if you're craving it, they probably have it. Naturally, I went with my classic comfort order -- biscuits and gravy -- but I couldn't resist adding a dulce de leche crepe and their dirty horchata for my drink. Y'all. Let me tell you. That dirty horchata? Changed my life. Every flavor note was beautifully layered, rich, and perfectly balanced. It set the tone for what ended up being one of the best brunches I've had in recent memory. The biscuits and gravy? The best I've ever had at a restaurant. Period. The gravy was rich, savory, and loaded with flavor (plus topped with bacon because they understood the assignment), and the biscuits were perfectly textured -- dense but not heavy, fluffy without being dry. It came with seasoned, crispy hash browns and the portion was enormous. I took half of it home and was still full. And the crepe? Sweet, decadent, and absolutely delicious. A perfect dessert-for-breakfast moment. Service was just as impressive as the food. I was seated immediately, brought a menu quickly, and my drink arrived within five minutes. The food came out fast, I was checked on regularly, and both owners were walking around chatting with patrons -- you can tell they care about their customers and love what they do. The total cost was about $30, which felt more than fair for the quality, portion size, and overall experience. I'd happily pay that again and again for a meal this good. TL;DR: Sweet Desert Café is a low-key, high-reward brunch haven. Go. Go now.

We were drinking mimosas, eating, talking, and taking our time, and I really appreciated that we never once felt rushed to leave or pressured to keep ordering. A lot of places start making you feel awkward if you stay too long, but the service here stayed friendly and attentive the entire time we were there. The mimosas were honestly one of my favorite parts because they had so many different fresh juice flavors to choose from instead of just the typical orange juice. It made the experience feel way more fun and customizable, and you could actually taste how fresh the juices were. Every mimosa we tried was refreshing and super easy to drink. The food was also really good and paired perfectly with the drinks. Everything tasted fresh and well-made, and it all came out quickly even though the place was busy. I also loved that they offer both indoor and outdoor seating because it gives the place such a nice vibe depending on what kind of experience you want. We spent a good amount of time just relaxing, enjoying the weather, and hanging out, and it honestly made for such a nice date spot. Overall, this place has a really welcoming atmosphere, great service, delicious food and drinks, and the kind of environment that makes you want to stay awhile. Definitely somewhere I'd come back to for another long brunch.
