Just amazing! I have been to multiple coffee shops in the radford area and surrounding counties and…read moreArabica is by far my favorite. The owner Abdul always greets me when I walk in the door, the ambiance and decor is beautiful and welcoming, and the food/coffee always tastes great. I love ordering different items every time I go because every item has its own unique flavor and tastes like nothing else I've had before at any other coffee shop. 10/10 recommend!

Voted best donut in VA in 2024 on yelp. Initial…read moreimpressions: crowd lined up early. Coffee: not good (that might be because I had to put a powdered creamer in it because I didn't know they had liquid creamer in the drink fridge) although honestly I only halfway believe that. Chocolate iced donut: ok. Had more of a baked/cake donut taste to it (vice a fried/glazed taste). You can even tell it's a different kind of donut in the picture. Not very sweet. Glazed donut: pretty good. Sweet. Service: good. But: no napkins in the bag (that's a negative). No seating. Carry out only. Solid 3.5/5 . Certainly not the best I've ever had. Best in VA? I mean, we still have Krispy Kreme so.....

Carol Lee donuts is probably my favorite donut shop ever. They have a pretty decent selection of…read moredonuts at very low prices, and the workers sometimes throw in an extra. There is no seating in the building and there is a standing line to the counter. The donuts sell out quickly, so make sure to go early to ensure you get your treats. It's a must go for anyone in the area and is a favorite of locals and students alike.

Coffee is ok; at least they had real cream. Glazed donut was sweet but had a bite ( ie it seemed…read morechewy to me). Okay; not great, very little flavor. Chocolate iced had more flavor: distinct vanilla and chocolate flavor but was also chewy. Chewy is not my thing in a donut. Service was great. Ambiance was country-cute. 3/5 stars

I had the Capresse Omelette, too much vinegar drizzled on top of it and it needed salt.

I stayed in Bluefield and he lives in Princeton, but he met me here since it was on my way to Cherokee. This leg of the trip was to drop off some cash for Mr. Bob. A lot of it. No, not that kind of money. Clean money. Anyway... The staff here is super friendly, the atmosphere fits the area, and the place has some charm. It looks like the prices for the sandwiches are very fair, but I got a bagel, and the price for one bagel is too high. However, this is more of a sandwich and coffee shop; it's not a bagel store. I definitely recommend The Grind. I'm not really a morning person so I don't know what Bob was talking about half the time, but that's just me. Definitely recommended!

Nice little coffee shop with lots of variety. We stopped in during a road trip and parking was…read moreeasy. It is next to the Edith Bolling Wilson Birthplace Museum, so stopping here after a visit would be super easy. There were plenty of specialty drinks on the menu, and they trended towards the sugary direction. There were plenty of families enjoying the space, and options for kids and adults. My drink ended up being sugary-sweet and I probably would have asked them to dial it down if I had realized. On the plus side, they were able to get drinks out pretty quickly, in spite of there being quite the crowd. The space was clean and modern. Also, the bathroom was clean and very much appreciated on our road trip. I probably wouldn't sit and enjoy my drink here, due to the high traffic (at least when I visited). For a quick stop in, it's nice. I'll be sure to order better next time. Solid spot!

(Wow, I have never seen an overall rating for a business be so wrong! 2 stars is absurd.)…read more The Chocolate Spike is one of my favorite places anywhere to get handmade chocolate and it's right HERE in Blacksburg! I imagine if you came here looking for a cafe you would be disappointed, but this is a chocolate shop. It's true that the shop lost some of it's charm when it moved from downtown, but I am sure they do better business where they are now and I can't really begrudge them the move. Things I love from the Chocolate Spike: - Chocolate covered candied fruits (especially orange peel) - Truffles - Plain dark chocolate or bittersweet bits that you purchase by weight. The selection of chocolate and chocolate cover goodness is extensive, but the basics do not suffer because of it. The prices are good for homemade chocolate. The chocolate is excellent quality. Buy some for yourself, your sweetheart, your mom, your officemates... they will love you for it!

Cute little food truck in the Blacksburg/Cburg area. Got free bowls for a sorority event, and was…read moresuper happy with both the taste and portions. I got the mango bowl and my girlfriend got the coconut bowl, which I liked a little better, but none were bad by any means. There was a bit of a line, but it moved quickly and my order came out very quickly after I placed it. The presentation was also beautiful with plenty of fruit on the top. Since the bowls were free, I can't speak for the pricing, but the quality is definitely worth it. Will definitely be going back next time I see the truck.
