From the outside looking in Summit looks like your average new age storefront. But the moment you…read morewalk in that all goes away, you're greeted by intoxicating aromas that satisfy the doubt of "just another trendy coffee shop", especially if you catch them baking the incredible sweet treats that they offer! As basic as it sounds, get the chocolate chip cookie and DONT scrape off the salt. It's INCREDIBLE!! Above that the coffee they serve here is truly top notch, so many different notes in so many different brewing methods... if you truly love coffee, come here and don't be afraid to explore something off your usual path. The incredible team behind the scenes at the Highland Creek store has been absolutely incredible. Welcoming a new patron with open arms and making sure I leave completely satisfied gives you that feeling that you're not just another customer. Especially if you engage in conversation of their offerings. Summit might be classified as a "chain" due to their multiple storefronts... but this one runs like a small business that cares. Thank you so much for what you guys do!!

Stopped by here after searching for a coffee place I haven't been to yet…read more It was 9:30-ish am on a Sunday and had a decent amount of customers. Some working, some ordering to go, some hanging out with friends. The playlist was jamming! Was my first time here and was easy to order. The menu is on the wall and they have the seasonal menu there as well. I got the brown sugar cinnamon latte, warmed. It was good but not super strong in flavor. A hint but not milky if that makes sense. I'd order jt again. And it's reasonably priced. A little over $6 for a 16. oz. THEY DO NOT CHARGE EXTRA FOR MILK SUBSTITUTES!!!! I love that concept and wish all places did the same.

My friends and I have been coming here for years and it is our favorite coffee shop! We love it so…read moremuch. The employees are so kind and the coffee is always amazing. The inside is so cute and homey. I recommend trying one of their muffins or scones, they pair nicely with an iced coffee. Be sure to come in on Tuesdays for double stamps on your punch card! They also have themed menus that get changed out every few weeks/months (in the past they have done Stranger Things, Disney Princesses, and 90s Nostalgia). I will forever recommend this coffee shop!

I honestly may have never stumbled upon it otherwise because it's located underneath apartments in Belmont. It was a little hard to find but once you get in the area you can see it pretty clearly. I ordered a very delicious cranberry apple cider. It was tart, hot and perfect for this cold rainy day. They had some really cute seating and seasonal drinks. I could see this being a fun place to work or meetup with friends to catch up. The service was great too, everyone was kind and helpful. Very cute lil spot! Gotta come back and try their coffee!!

I was excited about a new coffee shop but I got to honest this is a super nice place in a super not…read moreso nice area. I understand the whole revival of the area but this is over the top. Anyway the coffee is of course good but staff are not pleasant at all. It seems like we are not at their level and couldn't care less about your presence. And this isn't a once off time, I've been here multiple times and various hours from mid day to 40 minutes before closing. Same service, same attitude. You get a friendly waitstaff at Waffle House!! It's really strange to have such an upscale business in the west side of Gastonia. Cross the street or walk down a few blocks and you'll quickly question your choices. I like new coffee shops a lot, but this one just isn't it.

Waterbean Coffee has a beautiful aesthetic, and the space itself is large, open, and inviting. It…read morewas my first visit, so I wasn't familiar with the menu or the different drink options available. Unfortunately, the customer service left a lot to be desired. The young employees working behind the counter seemed completely uninterested in interacting with customers. I don't expect anyone's undivided attention, but a simple greeting and a welcoming attitude go a long way. Instead, it felt like I had interrupted their TikTok sessions when I walked in. There was very little enthusiasm or engagement throughout the ordering process. To be fair, the coffee itself was good and met my expectations. The seating area near the restrooms in the back looks nice from a design standpoint, but it's not particularly comfortable if you're planning to stay awhile. Overall, the atmosphere and coffee were positives, but customer service is part of the experience. With so many coffee shops in the area that offer both quality drinks and friendly service, I'm not sure I'll be returning.
