I only wish I got the drink BEFORE I decided to go exploring in the area as it gave a great pick me up! I decided on Sangria after trying the sample of Skittlez tea!

The hours are early morning to mid afternoon so plan accordingly!

I tried the pina colada type smoothie called Waikiki and my husband had strawberry cheesecake with some lime in it. Both tasted very unnaturally flavored and were very thick. Mine reminded me of eating oatmeal, I almost had to chew it. I'm sure they were healthy though. Seem like very nice people who work there and some good looking pastries. Smoothies weren't for us though.

Their teas are tasty, some are more to my taste than others. our favorite is the apricot. Each person gets a delicate china teacup and a ceramic pot full of tea, making drinking it a unique experience in this day of ceramic mugs or paper cups. Next, the atmosphere is cozy. Individual, unique tables paired with different chairs, so a guest wanting a hard chair can have one while another might like a more cushioned chair. Antique collars and purses hang from the ceiling. China teapots and cups decorate the shelves along the walls. Lace curtains hang in the windows. no canned music. Do you need a unique gift? There are various tissue holders - some shaped like birdhouses, others like a teapot for sale. or cushions, or soaps. As you wait for your food, wandering around or just looking around is a feast for the eyes. Hat racks full of hats and costumes adorn nooks and are for wearing to the afternoon teas. We have not done that yet, still enjoying the lunch visits. I would recommend making a reservation though. the tea room is not spacious, and we have seen walk ins turned away for lack of room. but for us, the highlight is the interaction with the owner. NOT for the snooty or stuffy customer. If you get offended when the owner jokes with you as he takes your order, PLEASE don't come here. Your attitude embarrasses us all. His demeanor is like that gruff old man who accepts that he has to repeat the specials, but who can't resist chiding you about it. All the staff is wonderful, but he stands out with his banter. For a lunch, or just tea and a scone, definitely try Sweeties.

We stopped in today, because we were headed out to citrus county, and this place was on the way…read more Ive seen it, but Im never there when they are open. Anyway, that changed today when the Husbeastie and I stopped in for a quick brunch. This is a small shop, run by one or two people, so orders of food take time as they are made individually. Today, I got a fluffy Bavarian Cream donut, and loaded Avacado toast, my hubby got a smash burger with perfect tots! (They were perfectly crisp and salty. Perfect!) The donut, Ill be honest I was expecting dry and very little filling, ala Dunkin, but No! Thos was a deliciius, tender dough, and LOTS of filling! It was a decadent experience. My loaded avocado toast, and it was not at all what I expected, it was better! Instead of just mashed avocado, it was a thick piece of multi grain bread, spread with cream cheese, salad mix, and sliced avocado, with 2 eggs any style. I asked for scrambled, dry and they were perfect. Honestly its several hours later and I'm still thinking about that donut.

We were welcomed as we walked in the door and able to choose from a variety of tables/booths. They stop serving pancakes and waffles at 11 am, but all other breakfast items are available until 2 pm. The selection was exactly what you would expect from a diner: a few standard breakfast dishes, biscuits and gravy, a few omelette choices and you could build your own omelette. The food was good, the service was excellent and the prices were not over the top. We will most likely be back!

The fried catfish was breaded with cornmeal, perfectly crispy, also well seasoned and very moist and tender inside. The tartar sauce was homemade and very good but they also have a good peppered vinegar. Between us all we had an opportunity to try a lot of sides. Hush puppies which one of our hush puppy lovers said was the best she ever had (I'm not a fan of these overall so I can't really say). The potato salad was very good, creamy, with just a hint of onion and relish. Baked potatoes and sweet potatoes were enjoyed by all. Loved the crispy okra and green beans. Collard greens were also good. Of course, we couldn't leave without trying the pies. Caramel apple walnut was a little too nutty for me but it was still good. They key lime was my personal fave -- the crust was a good crumbly graham cracker that was definitely home made. We also had a lemon meringue and the chocolate coconut cream pie, which was essentially a half and half with chocolate cream and the bottom and coconut cream on the top. Both had beautiful, moist meringues with nicely toasted tops. On top of good food, we had a great waitress who was super attentive and very patient and friendly. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area and looking for some nostalgic, good southern comfort food.

Today, I even had a brand new mug so she can't tell me it had something to do with germs. That is usually her excuse. When I asked her if she stirred the one inch bunch of sugar, she said, "I can get you a spoon." I said, "No thank you. I simply cannot stir my hot coffee while I'm driving." If she can find me a long is for me to stay right why can't she do it herself? How is it safe for a customer to drive open a hot beverage and stir coffee?? This is not the first time this has happened. I have repeatedly reported this to management. All that they keep saying is that they will talk to her. Well, I am fed up with the talking they need to do action. Put into policy a safety measure to that people do not have to stir the coffee in the drive thru. It is not safe to tell a customer to stir they're hot coffee while they're driving. Especially, when the customer point blank ask the employee if it's been done and to please do it. #LoyalCustomer This loyal customer is being pushed too far. I have spent so much money at this location and put in so many good referrals and reviews. It's the very least they could do. Also, no more attitudes and taking personal stuff to work. Other employees have really poor attitudes there and manager says that it's because person has " a lot going on at home." A person who posts and brags about your store so much (Me) should not be treated like poop more than Four times (by same two ladies).... Take some time off. Find a new job. Move on. Get help. But don't take it out on people who clearly just LOVE their refill coffee "light n sweet" Stirred" Now, I am upset.... Yes, I still had to remove price tag off of my new mug, stir my coffee because she did Not do it, and some spilled in my car & on me! #PostingDiva #FlauntNow PS: forwarding this to everyone!!!!!
