First off, this place has a real coffee house vibe and feel. You feel comfortable as soon as you walk in. There is an assortment of artwork, a lending library, assorted coffee beans and teas leaves for purchase. A plus for atmosphere. On to the coffee. TFB is unstumpanle whe. It comes to flavor add ons. I will I use a picture of the mene to prove it. My wife likes sweet and spicy coffee so she tried the Killer Bee a honey and cayenne combo. She likes her coffee temp extra hot which is spotty in most places. Here they got it right. She loved her coffee. I went standard latte and found their coffee to be non bitter and smooth. It is not an overpowering brew it is bold without getting too acidic. Very satisfying. FYI their 12 oz has two shots, 16 oz has three and the 20 oz has four. Nothing to deduct for here. Terrific coffee house experience.

If you don't really like coffee, they have great custom smoothies, Italian and French sodas, hot cocoa, and more! They also have ice cream, macarons, pastries, and sandwiches and soup if you're feeling like a hearty, organic lunch! The atmosphere is fun and buzzing with conversation. The employees/baristas there were also very polite. How can you NOT love Tasteful beans?

Oh my god this place is SO UNIQUE and SO CUTE and SO WELL PRICED!…read more I was I lived closer to this place because I would come grab a drink every day! Make sure you follow google maps exactly, because it really is just a bus that is in the corner of a strip mall! They have seating in the bus and outside but you can just take your drink to go and they also have cute coffee bus stickers! The service was really nice and the ambiance was so unique inside the bus itself. The drinks were super cheap which I love and this is a great pit stop if you are going up to the Blue Ridge or Grandfather Mountain for a hike! I want to go back so badly and definitely recommend this place to anyone who can go!!!

The lemon possum tail needed just a little more lemon flavor but otherwise the filling was very good and not greasy which I've had happen at other places before. The cherry napoleon needed a little something to brighten it up but was still pretty good. It was very quiet when we went on a Saturday afternoon but I have no complaints. There's some seating if you want to sit and get a coffee. Overall pretty nice.

My most recent favorite flavor is tiramisu I always get half the flavor pumps because I don't want it overly sweet I really want to enjoy the coffee flavor.

Highly recommend getting before you start shopping and then you can enjoy while you browse.
