    a variety of doughnuts and drinks
    Ngoc H.

    The perfect one stop shop for early morning donut/kolache/boba cravings. We were staying at the Udoscape Eco-Glamping Resort across the street and came to this area for gas. We loved how early their hours were (4AM-2PM) because we were able to pick up breakfast and a coffee slush. I loved that the slush was not super sweet (the ultimate Asian compliment) and the breading on the kolache was perfect - fluffy and flavorful. It's also an Asian-owned business! Staff were super helpful and kind and both the drinks and food came out fast. Definitely check this place out if you're in the area.

    First off let me start by the service. This place might be small but their customer service is huge. Always helping with a smile. This is a true statement to their name! The donuts, well. Another statement and reason to smile. They're amazing. Fresh and flavorful. First time trying the slush. And I love it!

    Tremendous Donuts!! All we had were the cake donuts, but they were out of this world good. Super fresh. I showed up one day at noon and they had one donut left. I asked what time they opened and they said 4AM. Too easy. Showed up the next morning at 3:55AM. Waited... until 4:20. At that time, someone finally opened up shop. When I asked for other donuts beside cake, she said they don't do that until 5:30 ‍. Can't make this up. So I got cake because that's all they had. Ended up being fantastic , but the journey was a bit frustrating. All this is for your knowledge. 5 stars because donuts were worth the frustration in the end.

    We stayed at an airbnb 10 mins away from this place and it was a life saver. Hours are from 4am - 2pm and they had a little bit of everything we purchased strawberry & raspberry filled donuts, kolaches, coffee milk tea, and croissant sandwiches. Also today happens to be thanksgiving and they were still open and so sweet, & by the time we made it back to the airbnb we realized they threw in free donut holes which was a really nice surprise!!

    My first visit here and they were very nice. I ordered the strawberry banana slush with Boba at normal sweetness and it was delicious! Due to the promotion that they have going on until New Year's I got free donuts!!! Woot! I got a chocolate sprinkled one and a half dozen of donut holes. The chocolate sprinkle was pretty average I love the amount of sprinkles they put on there and the donut holes were very good practically melted in my mouth.

    Staying locally and this has been my go to spot for coffee & donuts. I don't care for the location, due to roadway. The people are sweet, the donuts are fresh! It does get busy, but they are quick!

    I love boba so much and I was so excited when this place opened. The drinks are so good and very customizable. The owners are really nice too!

    Stopped by this morning, coming through I was happy to find this cute little spot!…read more I got the aloha coldbrew, but just made into a latte (milk and espresso instead of cold brew) It came without coldfoam and no drizzle :/ so not exactly what I ordered. My MIL got a hot chocolate, which came out not really... hot. So that was a little upsetting. We got the banana nut muffin which was a 9/10, we should've gotten it warmed. And I got the cinnamon french toast bagel with cream cheese which was SO GOOD It was a little slow for a drive thru. I'm huge on if you're going to take your time, it should be just right! Otherwise, pretty good. Good flavors and nice young ladies at the window. My rating is mostly due to the issue of not really being impressed with the delivery of our drink orders.

    We've been here a couple of times. The coffee flavors are absolutely delicious. I feel like their…read moreteas could be better. I ordered a London fog tea this time around which I was not impressed with since the flavors weren't as strong. A good London fog on a cloudy or rainy day is my go to. Hubby got a seasonal pumpkin spiced latte and that was delicious! Their flavored coffees are out of this world and I would highly recommend. If you are a tea drinker, the teas are decent, but I feel like I've had better. FYI, there aren't really places to sit, but there is enough space where you can park your car and eat/ drink in your car. One feedback for the business is to move up the matcha menu up so it's easy to see. I totally wasn't able to see that they had a matcha until after I already ordered. I'll be back to try their matcha. The service otherwise was excellent.

    I like the vibe here at Morning Glory. The food is good, and the service is nice…read more I came here after a dentist appointment. Was seated in about the middle of the restaurant along the wall. I love these seats cause you can see the coffee station and what's going on back there. Basically people watching. It was a little loud today, so I put on my head set and listened to some music. My server was Joyce and she was sweet. Took my order, which was breakfast tacos and a pineapple mimosa. My drink came super quick, and my food didn't take long at all. I mean like a couple minutes quick. Tacos were outstanding. And honestly as soon as I asked for a corn tortilla over the flour I thought, they're going to fall apart. But they didn't. And when you see the size of these tacos it will blow your mind that they didn't. Good corn tortilla. Scrambled eggs are fluffy, the potatoes are seasoned a little. They added bacon for me a that was chopped up inside the taco. Honestly it was a lot of food. I knew I wouldn't be able to finish it. But I did, and enjoyed every bite.

    I really enjoyed this spot. I'm quite fond of beets so I had to try the beet latte which I enjoyed…read more I also had the MG Avocado Toast which was on the pricey side, however the golden beets and cherry tomatoes on top were delicious. The atmosphere is modern and cozy and service was attentive. I would definitely go again!

    I had great service today!…read more First time. Can't believe I live like 1/4 mile from here and this is my first time. Parking on either side of the building is easy. Drive thru had about 4 cars, I'm not really a drive thru person. I like going in, seeing people face to face, person to person. Feel the vibe. The vibe is laptops 100% Apparently this is the place to work. So no seating was available. But for today, I was dashing to an appointment anyway. Looked over their menu that was posted up on the wall. Decided on a chocolate mint drink. Could taste the chocolate, but there was no mint to the drink. Customer service was great. The cost of the drink with tip was $8.00. Drink wait time was just a couple minutes. Pretty quick. I didn't take pictures because I didn't want to get people's faces. But the inside was clean. All the seats along the wall were taking by laptop people. So wanted to give them their privacy. They do offer non caffeinated drinks. Maybe when the weather gets hotter I'll try one of those as a comparison.

    What do you get when you cross Starbucks with mediocrity?…read more You get Black Rock Coffee Bar. Black Rock follows the Starbucks formula like a dedicated wannabe. The espresso is worse. Given the fact that Starbucks espresso is godawful ... That is an impressive accomplishment. * * * The interior decorating is far worse. To understand what is wrong with Black Rock's room design, You have to think a little bit about what interior decorating does for a retail restaurant chain. * * * Restaurants can either be energizing or calming. You want energizing if you are either selling fun or you need you need high turnover so you can sell high volume. A little kid pizza palace needs to be fun, so all the kids beg their parents to take them to your establishment. Fast food needs to be high turnover. You are selling burgers or whatever at very low margins. So you need those customers in the door then out the door so new ones can come in and buy more stuff. * * * The classic success story in energizing interior decorating is McDonald's. Never mind the arch part - although to be fair that was a touch of trademark defining genius. The bright lights, and the white red and yellow are tremendously energizing. You come in - you get peppy - you eat fast - you get out fast. * * * Starbucks is one of the great classics in calming interior decorating. Starbucks wants you to come in with your computer, or come in with a friend with whom you want to have a soulful conversation. In both cases, you will be staying there a long time. There is a little bit of a build the tab logic. If you stay there long enough, you will order a second drink or another snack. But mostly that tranquility is what made you come to Starbucks in the first place. You would not have had that writing session or that soulful conversation in a McDonalds. * * * How does Starbucks accomplish this visually? Their color scheme is one of the great accomplishments of corporate interior decorating. Natural woods. Light grays. Dark green accents. You slow down immediately on entering. * * * The Black Rock Interior Decorators missed the larger economic logic of what they are trying to accomplish. They decorated in energetic and perky ... With bright colors and and even brighter fluorescent lights. There is nothing visually mellow about Black Rock. The bright perky colors do what bright perky colors do. They make the customer feel energetic. So feeling energetic, I got up and left. * * * To be fair, having just drunk an awful espresso helped with the got up and left part. The caffeine made me energetic. The hating my coffee made me want to get out of there. That said, there was more to this than just the coffee. Starbucks espresso has just as much caffeine as does a Black Rock espresso. The room is what keeps you sitting in your chair. * * * I suspect their sweet and elaborate drinks are just fine. I did not have one so I do not know. But I go to coffee houses to get work done. The fact that I can get a Mocha Raspberry Figatooti for a beverage is a side point. There are lots of places that will sell me a Mocha Raspberry Figatooti. I go shopping for a room that will remove distractions and maximize my clarity of thought. Nothing maximizes your clarity of thought at a Black Rock Coffee.
