    Delicious smells as enter of their coffee barrister making cappuccino. Friendly staff that gets your orders out quickly. Croissants that are flaky and not overly sweet. Love this location . Worth a look!

    I stopped by for breakfast as I was shopping in the area with my sister. We came across this coffee shop! It's very aesthetically pleasing and offers a variety of food and drinks. I ordered the "Purple Rain" which is an iced latte with ube and vanilla. To eat I got the Cali sandwich. I really enjoyed the drink! The presentation was great! It wasn't too sweet and very enjoyable. The sandwich was so delicious! The aioli and hummus really made the sandwich taste amazing! The sandwich was $11 and the drink was $6.50 for a regular size. I recommend this place for enjoyable food and ambience! It's also a great place to study and offers free wifi!

    Always love coming here for their lattes! This time I got the purple rain - ube vanilla latte. Their lattes never disappoint and they have great flavors. I haven't tried any of their breakfast items yet but I definitely will in the future. They have merch too. There's always a crowd there - it's a great place to meet and work. Nice ambiance and ample seating, with a few tables outside. Can't wait to try their seasonal flavors!

    Flatbreads
    Connie H.

    Can't say this is a standout- we had paninis. Avocado toast, bagel sandwich, and 2 flatbreads with various drinks all around . I thought the cauliflower flatbread would.be low carb but it did spike my blood sugar. I thought the texture of the flatbread was a little hard and chewy. So if you are on a low carb diet or diabetic, this is def not the crust for you!

    Once you walk in, get ready to live the name of the place: Slowpokes. What I mean by this is; give yourself a chance to slow down and enjoy the experience. From the great playlist to the warm décor, you're welcomed into a space that makes you forget you're still in the city. The employees make you feel like you're the only person that matters in that moment. The way they connect, explain the menu, offer suggestions, and engage in friendly banter is truly masterful, a very refreshing surprise in a world that moves too fast. We ordered a mix of coffees and breakfast sandwiches, all of which were tasty and unique. The chicken panini was a wonderful blend of salty and creamy mozzarella cheese , with a beautiful pesto sauce. The prosciutto fig sandwich was a perfect balance of savory and sweet. Now, the pastries one word: "Amazing" The pumpkin muffin was so good it kept inviting me back for another bite, with a light frosting that highlighted the spices perfectly. The lemon bar was also very good, though I'm a bit picky with lemon desserts since the eggy aftertaste can be hard to hide. This one does a solid job, but that slight hint is still there. The honey lavender coffee is a neatly crafted, lightly sweet drink. I recommend adding an extra espresso shot or asking for less sweetness. If you're an espresso fan, do yourself a favor and get one here. It's citric, nutty, and coats your mouth with a beautifully crafted shot. Only caveat is service once you finish your meal as there is no clear place to leave all your dishes and during my time I did not see anyone from the restaurant help pick up any dishes. Overall, definitely come here for breakfast and a great coffee. This might just become my new go-to coffee spot. This review is for the Memorial location.

    Loved this location! It was really clean, super friendly service and the latte was great. I liked the service more here than the one on Longpoint.

    Purple rain
    Jorge R.

    Love slowpokes, amazing place with amazing baristas that love coffee. I get the purple rain with ube. So good. This location tends to get a bit busy on weekends so be prepared to wait but definitely wait because its worth it. There's lots of seating here and places to just sit down and chill.

    I like the consistency in their quality and service across different Slowpokes locations. It was packed on a Saturday afternoon. Very spacious interior in a small plaza that looks fairly new. Plenty of tables to sit at and easy parking. Relatively the same menu as other locations serving food and a variety of drinks from coffee to tea. My go to is the iced chai but I decided to try their purple rain. Pretty good and service was pretty fast despite how busy they were.

    Salted chocolate cake ball
    Jai G.

    We needed a place to get some work done on this beautiful Saturday afternoon, and had read the Slowpokes in other areas was a fantastic place to get work done. The menu was incredible - way more extensive than what you might expect from a "coffee shop" and all day breakfast is a huge plus. We got the breakfast bagel (which they modified for us as vegetarians - sub bacon for avocado - generally a winning substitution) and the brie flatbread. The flatbread was fantastic (a little more fruit to offset the brie wouldn't have hurt though), and the breakfast bagel was solid (really tasty but not necessarily groundbreaking). The drink was yummy though the cake ball was not my favorite). The major loss for this is that the WiFi requires a paper copy of your receipt, which was not revealed by the cashier, and due to the immensely long line, using the WiFi (kind of the whole reason to come to a coffee shop to work) became, practically, a non-option (presumably would have needed to wait in line, and ask for a print copy of the receipt). So we had to hot-spot our phone to use the Internet. Still a nice place, with a nice vibe, though a little louder than would be preferred for a work spot. A great place to come for a bite and light work, but not a place I would recommend to someone needing to seriously get the work done.

    The monster mash

    This is a really cute place. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly, giving me suggestions about what I'd like based on my preferences. The food was good, but a bit overpriced, but that is to be expected for cafes like this. Overall, a very nice experience.

    The Cali Sandwich
    Sylvia M.

    I really wanted to like this place because it is close to home. I've been there 3 times and my biggest complaint is that the sandwiches hardly have any protein. The first time, I had the chicken salad sandwich and the chicken sandwich had a smear of chicken on the croissant. The place had just opened, so I figured that employees were still being trained. I don't remember what I had the second visit, but this third visit, I had the Cali Sandwich. You can see from the photo that the sandwich is mainly bread and spinach! When I first walked in today, there was only one open table. I thought maybe things had improved. As I sat there I noticed that everyone around me was sitting with their laptop working on it. I guess this is the new hangout place. So, I guess if you need a place to work, this is the place to have coffee and hang out. The place is nice and has nice music. The employees are friendly but spend most of their time socializing with each other. After one of the tables opened up, a customer had to ask the employee to clean the table. Unfortunately, I won't be back and I wouldn't recommend this place for their food. However, if you want coffee and a place to work, then this is the place.

    Purple rain latte is the perfect mix of sweet. Kind of reminds of cereal milk which I love.

    Good for studying very clean with delicious food but you have to repurchase for WiFi because it cuts out every 60 minutes.

Parking was difficult to find because it was a Saturday but they said it's usually not bad during the week. The loaded bagel sandwich was so good! The bread was soft with a good flavor and the bacon & turkey sausage complemented each other well. One of my friends had bean and cheese tacos and she mentioned it was a nice touch to have with black beans instead of refried. The biscoff latte was highly recommended in the Yelp reviews and I am a biscoff girly so I figured I'd start there. 10/10. O also had a lemon poppy seed muffin. Super moist and decadent, enough to share!! I'm not crazy about matcha but for those that are you are able to cyo, by selecting your flavor syrup and cold foam with tons of creations available. They also have some staff favs if you're in the mood for something different! ** I subbed my milk for pistachio (never had before) and it was a nice touch So many seating options from booths, couches to tables. Can't wait to try more!

    It's been many many moons since I last visited this place. I recall it as a great spot for…read morebreakfast/brunch and caffeinated drinks but this visit, I was a little disappointed. The last time I was here, a server took our order. However, this time, after waiting for a looooong time at our table, I discovered that all ordering should be done at the counter. I like how open and spacious the place is but the booth seats were in poor condition, with extreme cracks and peeling pleather. Also, many of the tablets were dirty and I had to get up and ask for napkins to clean up the stains. Help was very limited during this visit. The baristas were engrossed in making drinks and didn't seem very friendly or eager to help with questions. On the bright side, the young gal who brought out our food and drinks was really nice and helpful. She even offered to spray down our table and wipe it clean for us after she saw how icky it was. There's a Pick 3 toasts for $24.95 option and we chose two smoked salmon toasts and one avocado toast. They were decently good. It was a nice light meal to share between two of us. However, the quality of the drinks has declined. The strawberry matcha used to be excellent but the flavor has lost its vibrancy. I would not order it again.

    This place was a hit! I was visiting from out of town and my host brought me here…read more Ambience, 10/10: the place was well kept, great music, and seemed to be well managed from the time I was there. I went on a weekend so it was busy, but it wasn't unbearable. They have a decent amount of outdoor seating which was nice. Staff, 10/10: no complaints here! They were extremely patient with me upon ordering when I had a lot of questions, even though there were people waiting behind me. They were informative, had great energy, and were also hustling to get people their orders as quickly as possible Food/Drinks, 10/10: As a vegan, coffee shops can be hit or miss, especially on the food. Having clearly labeled vegan options made it easy for me to have confidence with my choice (vegan all day). The bread was perfectly warm but not hard. Great flavor. I also asked for a matcha with strawberry puree & no foam to meet my dietary needs. It was delicious! The person I was with had no the smoked salmon avocado toast and what I recall to be the amazon cloud. She rated them both 10/10 with no hesitation. Very flavorful and refreshing. Overall this experience was 10/10 for both of us. It's a not so small coffee shop with diverse options, friendly staff, and a clean ambiance that makes me want to go back. Highly recommend.

    We had an absolutely amazing time for my sister's birthday celebration!…read more Instead of separate entrées we ordered absolutely everything from the appetizer menu, and our favorites were the UMAMI BRUSSELS SPROUTS, the SPICY TUNA & CRISPY RICE and the GRILLED & CHILLED SHRIMP and the SHORT RIB POTSTICKERS!!! It was very hard to choose between all of them, and we will definitely return and YES this place is highly recommended! A huge thank you to our waiter Damien. He did a wonderful job in helping us to celebrate as well and the chef who personally visited our table as well as the manager who placed a handwritten note for my sister, wishing her a happy birthday!

We also like to make a day out of it and go window shopping or wander over to Barnes and Nobles afterwards. You can't beat the location. It's a 10/10 from us. There are so many reasons we keep coming back. We're big fans!!
