Coffee is always good although sometimes the consistency of the taste may be slightly off sometimes. But if you understand coffee and pulling espresso shots there can be very fine nuances that change depending on the grind, temp, time, and even the barista can affect the way a shot is made/tastes. So I'm not upset that it's not the same every time. It just shows that this is the real deal. I enjoy the Breve here and the Chai Tea is solid too. The blended drinks are always good too. We've tried the spicy cayenne pepper drink and it was too much spice. I know it can be done as I've had it at a different coffee shop and it had just the right amount of kick. But this could be very subjective as everyone's spice level is different.

Yuminess: 4/10 Allergy Safety: 5/10…read morePrice: 5/10 Atmosphere: 8/10 Service: 7/10 Overall: The best part of this place is its cute, relaxed atmosphere with a retro vibe -- definitely a place I wouldn't mind hanging out in for a bit. Unfortunately, the coffee and ice cream didn't hit the spot and tasted off, even though they were on the higher end of the typical price range. There wasn't a great range of allergy-friendly options aside from alternative milk for the coffee, and staff were cordial. Not somewhere I'd return personally, but perhaps I just ordered the wrong things. In-depth: Starting with the best part, the atmosphere is a cute, cartoony retro vibe that's a great spot to hang out with friends in. If nothing else, they 100% got the interior design down here! Sadly, the food didn't live up to my expectations. The mocha latte with almond milk tasted like there was no milk or mocha in it. It was incredibly strong, which I don't always mind, but the coffee itself wasn't the best either. I only drank about half of it. Then the ice cream... I really wanted to love it. I tasted several and none I fancied, so I went with the safe bet of a chocolate PB cup ice cream in a PB cup cone. The overall flavor was ok, but I've never had peanut butter that salty. If I wasn't out with friends, I'm not convinced I would've finished it. Additionally, they didn't appear to have many allergy-friendly options, with the only thing I saw being alternative milks for coffee. The price point was a bit high for the flavor, in my opinion. One scoop of ice cream in a special cone was $7, and a mocha with almond milk was $8. I'm willing to pay this when the flavor is there, but I was disappointed here. Last up, service! When I went, there were two employees; the woman was very sweet and nice, but the man appeared somewhat annoyed, but he could have just been tired. Unfortunately, we did run into the issue of one of our orders being forgotten, and we waited a while to get it. However, they apologized and fixed it promptly when we asked about it. Overall, I wouldn't return here, but perhaps I just ordered the wrong things as I know some locals love this spot.

Yesterday evening, my husband and I had a delightful experience at North Main Kava Bar in Lowell,…read moreNC, for an event they hosted called " Kava & Queens - Sexy & Grown ." This space is truly unique in that, while it bears the title of a bar, no alcohol is served. We entered and saw this adorably eclectic space. I inquired about kava and kratom, and Bambe and Sam (the owners) kindly explained what they are and their effects on people. It's fascinating to know that something can provide the pleasant sensation of drinking alcohol without the adverse effects. As I conversed with the owners and some patrons, I saw that this space is undoubtedly inclusive and understanding of our individual differences--a safe haven where one can be oneself. I decided to try the kava they recommended, which had a subtle coffee-like flavor, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. One thing to note, as the owners explained to us, is that high-quality kava will produce a slight numbing sensation on your tongue. I also tried the refreshing cucumber version of the kava, and it was truly refreshing, to say the least. Kava does live up to its purported effects. I felt relaxed and like I had no pain, which is super awesome coming from someone living with chronic disorders. My husband had some of the kratom as a mocktail mixed with pineapple juice. Kratom comes in various strains and colors, and depending on the color, it can have different effects. He opted for white kratom for its energizing properties. He also tried the Kratomdriver (kratom and orange juice). By the end of the night, my husband described the feeling of wanting to go for a run because he said it's like a sugar rush. (But don't let him fool you; when we got home, he was out like a light .) They have an outdoor patio for anyone looking to enjoy the company of friends or simply relax in a nice, laid-back area in addition to their main bar area inside. This establishment is exceptionally welcoming and inclusive to all who enter its doors. The owners friendly and familiar demeanor creates a comfortable and inviting atmosphere for all guests. They host events throughout the month for anyone looking to go and experience kava or kratom, but in an eventful manner. Bambe and Sam, thank you for having such a great establishment where people can go, enjoy time spent with each other, and have actual conversations, showing people that a "bar" does not have to be the stigma we all think it to be. Last night's performances were truly enjoyable, and it is a night I will always remember because I felt I belonged. ‍
