    This new little coffee shop is great! I checked it out the other day before their Grand Opening next week. The space inside is very roomy with places to sit and work on your computer. The menu is mostly drinks of all different kinds. I appreciate that since I am not a big coffee person. I ordered an iced chai latte and it was great! They had muffins, scones, and I heard about their cheesecake bites too. With all of the new spots opening up this summer, this one might be my new remote work spot. I love how bright it is in there with the windows and they have a cozy spot by a fireplace too. I can't wait for their official grand opening and will definitely be back.

    Cold drinks on a hot day.

    Very nice neighborhood coffee shop. Clean and inviting. Friendly staff. Great iced coffee and fruit smoothies.

    My wife and I attended the event. The shop is a nice size with a pleasant atmosphere. We were served 4 different ice coffees to try. The owners were pleasant and excited about their shop and various drinks. The tastes were all good. I enjoyed the sampling and think they will be successful.

    This coffee shop has been much anticipated and it's worth the wait! Today was my first time there and I will definitely be back and am already planning to have my next yarn meetup there. The coffee is delicious! They plan on adding gluten free baked goods in the future and currently offer some muffins, cookies and pastries from a local bakery. I'm wishing this locally owned small business the best of success - they already sold out two days in a row! It's a great spot that was really needed in this area - stop by and get a coffee, tea, smoothie or a steamer - this coffee snob thinks you'll love it!

    Earings!

    Super cute place. I got the red otter coffee and a black and white cookie. Both were delicious! I also scored the cutest Otter coffee cup earrings (made by one of their employees). Very cute vibe and super friendly staff!

    Iced red otter mocha!! Really good!!

    This place is amazing!! Their drinks are incredibly good and everything is made right in front of you! Great seating area and it was very clean!! Everything was ready fast!! Would totally recommend this place!!

It was earl grey with bits of toffee. Also got the salted caramel which was also amazing. I would definitely come back to try their other flavors as well as other menus since they have a huge array of icecream sandwich, floats, sundaes, etc. they have a decent size parking lot with a lot of people coming and going. They have decent seating area making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy the weather. Service was fast and great but only gave us 2 samples. Overall, a great experience and met some really people.

Luckily it wasn't busy... couldn't/wouldn't stand in line under the hot sun.. We ordered, go to sit down and relax, opened the umbrella for shade because EVERY table was soaking in bright hot sun in the asphalt area only to be told by the workers to put the umbrella down because it was "too windy ". I checked the weather on my phone and it was 14mph. They expected us to sit baking in the sun eating their ice cream??? Eff that. Changed our order "to go" drove down the street, pulled over under a tree and ate it in the car. That really put a smush on the whole new experience... The ice cream you ask, yeah it was good, but not good enough to go back again. Guess you can only go there when there's no breeze and bake in the sun. No thanks.

    Ice cream for dinner? Yes, please!…read more Condrell's has been a neighborhood staple since my childhood and the quality has never wavered. You simply cannot beat the sundaes here. The sauces are all homemade and in my opinion, they're really the star of the show. If you want to go all out you can get the "king's portion" double scoop sundae, but I appreciate that they also serve single scoop "queen's portions" for a slightly lower cost. The staff are always friendly and efficient, willing to make modifications so that you can craft the ice cream of your dreams. Worth noting is the very silly water station near the front door. Condrell's has always served tiny glasses of water, which is now offered in Dixie cups that you fill yourself. If you're trying to stay super hydrated these baby sized cups aren't going to meet your needs, but I have come to expect them and think they add to the charm of the venue.

First of all, all the ladies working were very friendly! Kindness always goes a long way for me! Also with the orders I picked up, there was a little wait, because they truly make things fresh! I was really blown away by the assortment of Easter chocolate! I mean almost every theme you can think of, they have chocolate to represent it! I had to hold myself back from muting myself an amazing purse and high heel made of chocolate! All of my exclamation points are totally relative to my amazement lol (I am also thinking of Elaine Benes right now for any fellow Seinfeld fans). What I did buy was a giant music note of chocolate for my son's Easter basket .. he makes music and I am excited to give him this... And to mention: although the largest variety was milk chocolate, there is plenty of dark chocolate and white chocolate available too! I will update my review when I come back to try a dessert one of these days!

I went there tonight because I saw a picture that somebody posted of a banana ship Sunday and it looked so amazing. I just had to go there and get one for myself. The only problem with that was, my banana ship was so much smaller than the ones in the pictures. Obviously different crews working, they make things differently and the girl tonight just made mine so small. It was really kind of ridiculous and it was $10.00. If you look at the pictures from Hanna's of the banana ships and you look at my picture compared to the other ones, you will notice a big difference. I got completely ripped off. The employee was very nice though she was young cute and just a nice girl. As far as Parking goes now, that's kind of tough. It's a very small parking lot. I think maybe 10 cars could fit in there ,either 8 or 10. I'm not sure. And you have to really watch out cause kids are all over the place and you don't know if there's gonna be one running through the parking lot or not so you just have to really watch out for everybody there. It was very, very busy tonight and understandably, it's a beautiful night and perfect for ice cream. But the line unfortunately goes out towards the street and the main street there is Colvin so that's kind of dangerous for a little kids to be around waiting in line because you know kids can't stand still. They don't have a huge selection of ice cream or sundaes or things, but but they do have does sound good but like I said, it's not very much. Next time I go, I'm going to get probably lemon ice like I used to when I was little or another banana ship and hopefully they make it bigger. What they did make, though it was delicious.

They're open April - October (dates unknown), but it's always exciting when it's Hanna's season. The service is always fast and polite. They are generous with portions (as seen in the photos).
