I got the vanilla custard, my best description of how it tasted would be whipped cream flavor w ice cream/yogurt texture. My wife got the strawberry mango Ice. It was around $7 for both which is similar to competitor prices. There were no tables on-site at this time. This is a low cost dessert option that should be explored while around town.

If you're looking for true Southern comfort food, Bazen's in Florence is a must-visit. The buffet…read morewas packed with delicious home-cooked favorites, and everything we tried was fantastic. The fried chicken was crispy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The macaroni and cheese was creamy and comforting, and the fried okra had just the right amount of crunch. We also enjoyed biscuits, collard greens, peas, cornbread, and washed it all down with some of the most delicious sweet tea around. And don't even think about skipping dessert because the banana pudding was absolutely worth saving room for! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. Their Southern hospitality added even more to the experience. There were plenty of other options on the buffet, but these were the dishes that won us over that day. If you're craving authentic Southern cooking served buffet-style in a warm, welcoming atmosphere, Bazen's is definitely worth a visit. We'll be back!

It's nice inside for the most part with paintings on the wall which are for sale. It was, however, pretty cold. The temperature read 63° on the thermostat. Service was good but I was a little surprised that we had to ask for salt and pepper which is typically expected to be on a table when you sit down. Our breakfasts were good though and I'm definitely impressed with their eggs. Way too many restaurants over cook scrambled eggs but FE Pops nailed it. Fluffy and not dry. The bacon was perfect too but I wasn't too impressed with the sausage patties. It sort of had the "Brown and Serve" flavor. No big deal though. Grits only come with cheese which was a little disappointing but they were still good. Potato home fries were good. Definitely would come back here.

The milk and cookies flavor, which is awesome, has real cookies in it. Tangerine dream has real tangerines. Who else makes peanuts and cola flavored ice cream?! No one! Butter Pecan is like no other. In South Carolina they can get all the pecans they want. Today, I had lavender and honey. It was smooth! Yummy! The service team is always friendly and greets everyone with nothing less than a great, big Ole smile . The shop is decorated with a relaxing and friendly decor that puts you at ease as soon as you enter. Samples are free. Veterans are respected with a discount for their service. I only highlighted some of the flavors. Give them a try. I promise you will be back.

I came in twice one morning and while the place was bustling, the owner was incredibly welcoming while chatting with me and the espresso drinks and baked goods such as the peach scone were all outstanding.

Inside, the ambiance is calm and relaxed, with hip jazz playing softly in the background. There's a mix of regular seating and a small bar section, plus a pleasant sitting area that should be great when the weather is nice. The staff were friendly and welcoming from the moment I walked in, and they were genuinely helpful with recommendations--particularly when I was deciding between drink options. I ended up with an egg and cheese sandwich on a Kaiser roll that came out steaming hot: the roll was light and fluffy, and the whole sandwich was simple but really well done. I also had a shot of espresso that arrived in a very nice presentation on a wooden board, paired with a side of sparkling water, which was a thoughtful touch and made the experience feel a bit special. On their recommendation I tried the honey lavender latte made with local spicy honey; it was unique, flavorful, and not something you see everywhere. Overall, Bean Bar feels like a low-key, well-put-together café with good parking, a relaxed vibe, kind staff, and drinks and food that show real care.
