We are here during Thanksgiving break and we stopped in on Thanksgiving Day to indulge our sweet tooth since they were open for a few hours that morning. They do have a Facebook page you can visit to stay up to date with hours and specials. The seasonal menu changes but the classic café au lait are always available. This Baton Rouge girl is thankful for the sweet spot in Monroe! Oh and if your driving through on 165 or I-20 this season take a detour off the beaten path for some great coffee!

Honestly, for a coffee house that is not Starbucks they are surprisingly reliable…read more Let me explain my description. "Surprising reliable" because I've been the patron of many a counterculture coffee shops across the nation. CC's is the only one that has consistently served good products. For instance, I've gotten a flavored latte every time and each time the latte is smooth and the flavor just right. Additionally, I've neither utilized their WiFi nor stayed for an extended period of time to study, but this seems to be a good place to do so by the amount of people that have a laptop and books strewn about their table. If you're looking for something other than Starbucks, try CC's for a surprising and welcomed change.

As a Vietnamese person, and someone who used to work at a pho shop -- plus my family owned a…read morebusiness -- I understand how hard and difficult it is to open and run a restaurant here as an immigrant. Because of that, I usually don't write bad reviews. But I'm writing this because I genuinely want the owner to read it and understand. I love my culture and our food, and everywhere I go I always try Vietnamese restaurants. I chose this place because it looked like a mom-and-pop shop, and I really like supporting local businesses. We dined in during lunchtime, and it wasn't very busy, so we got seated right away. We ordered: - Rice with Grilled Beef: it tasted good and the portion was decent. We added a fried egg on top for $2.45. Everything was okay, but the color of the pickled vegetables didn't look fresh to me. - Vermicelli with Grilled Shrimp, Pork, and Egg Rolls: also a decent bowl, no big complaints. But I asked for no bean sprouts, the server repeated it to confirm, and it still came out with bean sprouts. Now here's the part that really disappointed me. Everywhere I've been, when you order a rice plate, it usually comes with a small side of soup. This place didn't, so we decided to order one. I knew we would be charged for it, and that's fine. But $8 for a small bowl of beef broth -- barely around 4 oz -- is honestly outrageous. I understand pho broth takes a lot of time, effort, ingredients, and experience. I respect that. But this? This didn't feel reasonable at all. I'm not expecting anything to be given for free just because I'm Vietnamese and I speak Vietnamese when I order. Even if they offered, I wouldn't take it. That's not the point. The point is, I felt really disappointed -- because this is my own people, and it made me feel like I got taken advantage of by my own people. I'm speaking up like this not to bash a small business, but because I want them to understand: every dollar customers spend is money they work hard for. You shouldn't take advantage of that or use excuses to raise prices like this. And what made it worse is that I've heard from locals who've been there and personally know the owner that "they only do that to people from out of town." That honestly made me even more upset. You might make extra money from one visit, but you lose trust permanently.

People are super nice and it's unfortunate that the owner doesn't ever bake enough of anything. I was in at 10:00am today. My online order wouldn't go through because the owner hadn't loaded what was available for the week. Still not loaded so I guess they just don't bake on days the owner can't figure out how much they sell of each item...you would think that they would have some clue as to how many croissants, danish, breads, etc that they sell in a week and get the website up and running. Frustrated, I ordered my usual coffee and 3 croissants. Nope!!! Only 2 croissants at 10:00am and they were probably left over from Saturday since they were tough and chewy rather than flakey and soft when they're fresh. And, absolutely not one tart, danish and very few muffins available. I'm not convinced of the cleanliness either. You can see back into the kitchen and everyone is running around with bare feet! It seems that that would be against health department regulations. Don't waste your time. They will be out of whatever you want so you'd be bettter off going around the corner to another shop or even to Monroe. Those establishments at least can figure out how many of certain popular items they need. So sad because when they're good, they're great. Unfortunately, they're hardly ever good. Just mediocre at best when they could be so incredible.
