Avocado toast was a good sized portion. I like the ample seating options and availability of seats. Service was friendly except for the male barista who cut in front of me to put away coffee cups grabbing a fork and napkin. I thought he was another guest so I let him go first, but then realized he worked there. A little rude imo.

I love coffee shops, so I always get excited when I can try a new to me spot, like The Borough. I…read moredon't get to Allendale very often (maybe twice a year) so when I was heading to Grand Valley's campus for an event recently, I made sure to allow extra time to stop by. The parking lot in front is pretty small, and there is only one access point, so if you go past it, you'll have to turn around near the apartments behind it. Don't drive on the sidewalk... I didn't, mostly because there is a sign that says, "This is a sidewalk" which made me laugh. (Truly that should be an entrance into the parking lot!) The space is very bright and airy with cute decor and space to get some work or studying done. I was greeted right away when I walked in and I had a tough time deciding what to order. I wasn't hungry, but I love that they have a full on food menu - including salads, burgers(!!!), bagels, toasts, paninis, pastries, etc. Plus all the regular coffee items, boba, smoothies, and teas. I went with one of the seasonal specials, the banana bread matcha. It didn't take too long to come out and it was very tasty - not really what I was expecting, but I liked it. It reminded me of a very green banana (which is how I prefer bananas), it wasn't super sweet but also not super matcha-y. They are expanding their space, so I am interested in coming back to see what that looks like and to order more delicious drinks and try the food!

I love the healthier food options they have, but you never have to twist my arm for their panini and tater tots as well!

I stopped in about a month ago for a healthy breakfast option and enjoyed my cappuccino with cappuccino chip muffin, a bit of fruit garnish and the Signature quiche (basically an assortment of ham and veggies baked in egg with a crust). It tasted like they made it and like it hadn't been frozen and reheated like some establishments in the area. Everything tasted fine and I noted that it was well supported by the local community. Ample free parking out front and reasonable prices for a cafe. Very Hudsonville vibes, but it sufficed and I would eat here again.

There is some parking around the area but can fill up quickly if there's a popup. I've never actually tried any drinks from Littlefoot but have gone to support many of the local small businesses they partner with for events. I love how they use their space to work with and uplift other local businesses. I often go to buy baked goods from Foliage and Flour as they are a retailer. The interior is actually really cute and each room has a slightly different vibe and really unique wallpaper. I definitely recommend coming here for a quick drink.

There are two rooms decorated differently with wallpaper and a variety of seating choices. It is located right off Chicago drive in Grandville and there is plenty of easy parking. I think they do coffee tours because when I stopped by, they seemed to be giving one. I usually buy their coffee at Bridge Street Market, and the Up North blend is my favorite! They have a few blends and I haven't loved all of them, but I love Up North!

Had to leave a review because it looks to me like this location, a kiosk type area in Meijer next…read moreto their deli, has improved and refined since the last reviews in 2020. I go to this Meijer all the time and finally stopped for a coffee here. The menu is pretty generous, most anything you'd find at any big name coffee shop. Lots of syrup options for lattes or teas, and various smoothies and milk shakes on the menu. Looked like they offer some specials too as well as a small food menu. They have a small but fairly cozy seating area- nice for enjoying a speciality beverage while someone shops! I just got a coffee with pumpkin syrup in it, nothing fancy. But it was tasty and fresh! I'd definitely try this cute shop again.

This recently opened coffee shop replaced the Starbucks that used to be inside the Meijer store in…read moreGrandville, MI. It's a lot less polished than Starbucks and pretty bare-bones. The tables look like they came out of an old diner and the chairs are what you would expect to find in a bingo hall or American Legion. None of the furniture looks new and some of it looks pretty beat up. The coffee itself tasted pretty good but they don't have anywhere near the selection of ingredients and variations that Starbucks had. I don't order extravagant coffee drinks so I suppose that doesn't bother me too much personally. But if you're the type that orders coffee with a bunch of complicated ingredients and flavors and such then you're going to be disappointed. My wife, for example, can only drink decaf coffee and they don't offer that at all (which just seems stupid for a coffee shop). Honestly, I'm getting a little tired of the Starbucks coffee monopoly and all the excessive and ridiculous coffee customizations they offer, but if you're going to replace Starbucks in a locale that gets thousands of shoppers each day you really should bring your A-game and shoot to fill those big shoes. This is more like the coffee shop you would expect to find in a community college student lounge. The bottom line: if you are just looking for a quick basic coffee fix while you shop this will probably be adequate (unless you want something complicated or decaffeinated). Just don't get your hopes up too high.

She offers Hudsonville ice cream and a wide variety of other items both sweet and savory. Coffee is also available (from regular coffee to fancier affogato!) Ice cream sandwiches and even puppy cones! If you go, you MUST check out the loft area. It is GORGEOUS! She rents it out for parties and things. So much care is apparent just peeking around the place! (See pictures!) I ordered just a kiddie cone of toasted coconut (I was still full but didn't want to left without something!). As I mentioned earlier she had a limited amount of things available. Only down side was my husband's malt was a bit lackluster (very milky and not much flavor) but that's just what happens sometimes. Otherwise really cute place!

The interior is super cute and a great hang out place for students/young adults. I love that they have different sections in the cafe; they have some high top tables and low top tables; they even have a section where you can eat and also play games, which I thought was cute. They have some board games (not many but around 5?) that you can play with you friends. Place is super clean. You can get noodle soup dishes, poke bowls, asian appetizers, boba, tea, and some other entrees here. So, for food... not so great. I'll have to come here again to try other things on their menu to give a more fair assessment, but I got the Popcorn Chicken Bentobox and found it really lacking. First off, it came out in a paper plate, not in a typical bento box! If you're going to list it as a bento box, then it'd better come out in a bento box. The Popcorn Chicken was good, but the pickled vegetables were quite dry. The 2 spring rolls tasted like ones I could have gotten frozen at Costco, and the rice was... fine. I know some people have raved about the ramen, so I'll try that next the next time I come here. So, for ambience and service, I'd give it 5/5 stars, but for food... 3/5. I'll come back here to try some more food and give further updates.

Ingredients were simple but good amount of everything. The egg was soft on the inside. Some of the pork pieces were a little dry, but for the most part were great.
