The best store there ever was on the face of the Earth! My boys and I are huge Potterheads -- my…read morehusband humors us -- and we spent all afternoon exploring the Harry Potter store. Yes, it's a retail shop. Shopping is boring. Blah blah But this Harry Potter store was amazing! There are interactive installments like casting your own patronus, getting a picture in Hagrid's giant shoes, making a pretend call in a London phone booth (aka Minister of Magic entrance), watching Dumbledore's Gryffindor door swing around and getting a butterbeer from the cafe. We loved our visit and our purchases. Much better quality stuff than Amazon

So many wands, clothing, books, snacks, toys and endless accessories to look at and purchase. They have a cafe area where you can buy some butter beer or even get a sundae. I didn't buy anything but as a fan it was still a blast to walk around and look at everything.

They also have a little section where you can purchase jewelry, coasters and keychains just to name a few. There is some seating here to enjoy your coffee at. They have a few food items too, but I did not get food. I tried the Turkish coffee and an iced latte. The Iced latte was very milky. The Turkish coffee I really only got because it comes in a beautiful pot/cup. It is not something I would think I like but I was wrong. I liked it more than the Iced latte. I was shocked. Their cups they have here are cute as you can see in the pictures. It is a good vibes only place. If I am in the area I would deff come back and try out a different drink and give it another chance.

If I could leave zero stars I would. Used to be my favorite shop in the city but when I went to the…read moreshop today (a 45 minute trip) the shop was closed and there was a sign on the door saying "back in 30 minutes" - I waited the 30 minutes, nobody came so I DM-d the shop and someone responded saying they would reopen at 5. Aka 2 hours later, not 30 minutes. When I called out how ridiculous it is to mislead customers like that the person on instagram was incredibly rude in response. Not worth the attitude, take your business elsewhere. UPDATE - whoever runs their instagram account "threatened" me by saying they would screenshot and post our conversation. 1. I do social media for a living and have for over 12 years. It's illegal for a business to post anything from a customer without explicit consent. 2. Still zero accountability that the "be back in 30 minutes" sign was put up in error as they actually meant that they would be back in 2 hours.

It was that good! This is a cute cafe tucked away on a quiet street. They have so many cakes to choose from, and every single one looked absolutely delicious. It was definitely hard to decide what to try! I do have one small concern. I'm fairly certain the amount I was charged on my card was different from the bill I received. I usually keep track of what I purchase, and when I checked my credit card statement afterward, I noticed a small difference. It wasn't a significant amount, but I would recommend keeping your receipt and double-checking your charge just to be safe. Overall, I really enjoyed the dessert and the cozy atmosphere, and I would definitely come back to try more of their cakes!

Banh Mi Cafe was such a delicious find!…read more We needed to get a quick bite to eat in the area, so we decided to check this place out. The lemongrass chicken banh mi was tasty, as the meats were juicy and marinated very well - the pickled veggies were plentiful, and the sandwich itself was just super generous and very filling! The baguette was top notch, being it perfectly toasted and crusty! The vermicelli bowl with the lemongrass beef was also a winner - the sauce that complemented the bowls and the fresh veggies were on point - the beef was savory, but in larger chunks, and, again, the portions were out of control! Super small place with about 5 seats at best; staff were fine, albeit a bit forgetful. Items are made/prepared to order, so you may be waiting a few.

The merriweather sandwich was pretty small (needed a side or something)- I enjoyed the kick of the sauce. The mushroom toast was good (I think it was the yogurt sauce but it was kind of tangy.
