They have a variety of flavors to choose from and actually, she made a mean latte. I was quite impressed! I was a bit skeptical, due to how the placed looked on the inside but having a real espresso machine was a good 1st step. I had a vanilla latte which was delicious. Also the prices were fair, just over $5 for the latte. I wish i wasnt full and would have tried some cheesecake! Next time maybe...

New Place for us!…read more FAMILY COFFEE & DRINK ADVENTURE!!! Saw this place one night next to the Hibachi we always go to in Winter Haven, check out my review for Hibachi Express winter haven, Fl. Was super excited to bring my wife here the next day as it was her Birthday and she LOVES COFFEE!!! To keep it short It's a nice place, things are pricey, especially the Cheesecakes and it was just ok in comparison to other Winter Haven Coffee Hot spots - Haven anyone??? We were going to do coffee and cheesecakes for a Birthday Breakfast, but WOW, the cheesecakes were like 8 something a slice and they are small for the price. I don't care how good they are they are not a good Food to Value in my pockets opinion. We were there so we got drinks. 1 medium caramel macchiato for the Wife and it was very caramel sweet, not a good ratio in her opinion. We ordered a cappuccino, quad shot espresso, that I was charged for 2 espressos for instead of 1$ per extra shot like most other places. 2 Teas and it was over 30$. All the drinks could have been better. None of us really enjoyed them. Got the Fam some cake pops for 2.25 each everyone said they liked them. The service was good, only 1 kid working by themselves and it did take time for the drinks to be made. Luckily no one else was there so he was able to focus solely on our order. They were also out of a few different drinks the girls wanted first, so they had to choose a tea that was not really the best. My little one had the frozen hot cocoa and they enjoyed it. All in all we would most likely only stop back for coffee if we were in the area. It is a Sunday and we want coffee out, but not good enough to drive past our go to's for coffee on the other 6 days. Cheesecakes looked good, but for the price of 3 slices. I can buy a whole cheesecake and add my own toppings. AS ALWAYS, TRY IT FOR YOURSELF!!!

We out the house without the kids places to go. They have seating everywhere even outside for smokers. The environment is very clean and inviting.

They have a great drink selection including coffee, tea, Kratom, kava, and beers. It's such a chill spot to just have a drink and relax and vape if you're into that. It's not smoky and people aren't blowing ridiculous amounts of vape smoke. As well as being a cool place to hang out and relax, they have trivia every Wednesday at 7.

This place is an absolute gem…read more From the moment I walked in, the vibe was fun, welcoming, and super cozy, but what really made the experience stand out was Eli. She was amazing. Friendly, patient, and genuinely kind, she made ordering feel easy and actually fun. You can tell she cares about the customers and takes pride in what she does, and that kind of energy makes a huge difference. And the drinks? So good. Everything tasted fresh, perfectly balanced, and just hit the spot. Whether you're a boba regular or trying it for the first time, they've got something you're going to love. And the Crab Rangoon was SO GOOD!!!!! And the cost was so cheap. This was one of those places that just gets everything right: great drinks, great atmosphere, and even better people. Eli truly made the visit memorable, and I'll absolutely be back.

Not whining, barking, or walking around. I get informed that the restaurant doesn't allow dogs but she's a SERVICE DOG. Denying a service dog is highly illegal. The only way a service dog can get denyed is if the dog is being disruptive or if the environment is unsafe for a dog. I would like to come back but if i can't bring my service dog, that is a big issue.

Everything was delicious and I loved my bean salad too! Kids had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and they enjoyed them along with the chips it came with. The staff was friendly. The restaurant was clean and the ambiance was nice as well. I saw a couple tables there enjoying books and it seems like a cute little place to read. I will definitely be back on our next visit.

Nothing was overly salty and everything we ordered we would all order again. The Chef Salad was large and looked fancy with fresh vegetables and lettuce and meat and cheese roll ups. The Texas Club was a tasty chicken salad sandwich on crisp Texas Toast with a nice light taste. The Country Fried Chicken was moist, easy to cut with a fork and seasoned just right. We don't often find a fried chicken breast as nice as this one. The fried green tomatoes were plentiful and prepared just right and perfectly crisp. Our server today was Annabel and she was just as friendly and attentive as we wanted/needed. When we sat down, I was hoping this might become my new favorite restaurant and they lived up to that hope. We live close to an hour away but I'm thinking we may drive back for breakfast tomorrow. This is most definitely a highly recommended place to visit.

Across from South Central Park and next to the Winter Haven Library resides Richard's Fine Coffees…read more For over 25 years Richard's Fine Coffee's has been supplying downtown Winter Haven with caffeinated beverages and food. David Tuttle opened Richard's Fine Coffee's on June 11, 1996. Upon realizing that there were no independent coffee house in Winter Haven, he wanted to bring residents and visitors a new coffee drinking experience. Richard's originally operated out of the Arcade Building before moving to the new Winter Haven Public Library when it opened its new building in 2005. In the ensuing years Richard's Fine Coffee's has become a cornerstone to the revitalization of downtown. One of the keys to Richard's longevity has been providing a place where people can meet, relax, and enjoy delicious coffee and bites. On the first Friday of every month they have a live music event. They serve a daily breakfast and lunch menu that includes hot and cold coffee drinks, breakfast sandwiches, bagels, hot and cold sandwiches, salads, soup, and pastries. I popped in for caffeinated refreshment during a recent trip to Winter Haven. I like how you can enjoy your drinks and food in their large dining room, on the patio, or across the street in beautiful South Central Park. Richard's has become more than a place where you can eat and drink. It is an important part of bringing the community together in downtown Winter Haven.

The crumb cake was also delicious. Staff was friendly and the interior design relaxing. We'll be back .

Sorry we forgot to get photos... we just dug in, that's how good it was. The fries were hot and crispy, the sweet potato fries had great flavor, and the iced coffee hit the spot after walking the gardens. The tomato and cheese salad was light and refreshing, perfect for the Florida weather. It's not a huge menu, but it works. The setting makes it even better -- being able to sit, relax, and recharge surrounded by the beauty of the gardens adds to the experience. Simple food done well in a peaceful setting. It complemented the day perfectly.

The menu is somewhat limited. It features mostly salads and sandwiches. They offer a small selection of draft beers. Customers order at a counter and receive a stanchion to place on their table.

The sandwich was served on toasted panini bread with a scoop of chickpea salad, lettuce, and tomato. They were busy with an after bell tower concert crowd, but the service was efficient and timely.
