    Near my parents place, this is an awesome coffee shop with great style, customer service, and…read morevibes. As you enter, there's a few tables for sitting and sipping or you can head to the couches and lounge chairs to relax and unwind with some board games or view the unique artwork/memorabilia on the walls. They have some specialty coffee drinks and tea flavors along with the classic coffee concoctions such as cappuccinos and americanos. As for teas, you can get those hot or iced. They have quite the selection of flavors such as hibiscus or honeydew. And if you're hungry, plenty of pastries to choose from along with breakfast and lunch sandwiches. Ice cream is also served here and it's Blue Bell! As someone who lives in Texas where Blue Bell is a blue blood, my heart skipped a beat seeing they serve it here. The baristas behind the counter are energetic with engaging personalities. One of them mentioned she's a coin collector and talked about the history of the penny which is being discontinued. My girlfriend and I found her facts and analytical dialogue fascinating as we heard her talk about it while we sipped our drinks. Yes, we were entertained! Definitely a must visit when you're in Punta Gorda; so glad it's within walking distance of mom and dad's!

For those who just want to chill or play games, it's a nice lowkey spot. I normally get lattes and a croissant. The other pastries look great but I haven't had a chance to try the selection yet. The staff is always friendly and I like the vibe in there. Plenty of parking since it's located in a shopping strip with a parking lot. As far as the location itself, it's easy to get to but sort of tucked away near the highway.

    We were so excited to discover that Kahwa Coffee has a new location in Port Charlotte. What a…read moreterrific find. We visited on a Saturday morning, and the shop was busy and lively. This is a full-service, sit-down coffee shop. It's not just a drive-through like so many places these days. A comfortable spot to relax indoors with air conditioning, or you can choose outdoor seating at tables with umbrellas if you'd rather enjoy your coffee alfresco. Since it was a warm day, I ordered an iced coffee. The barista was friendly and prepared my medium roast with care. It was flavorful, refreshingly cold, and perfectly balanced once I added some cream and sugar for a touch of richness. I thoroughly enjoyed my drink, and I'll definitely be back again.

    The ambiance here was really nice and I loved the amount of fresh/unique offerings. We ended up…read moregetting a Fusion Fizz which was one of their handcrafted energy drink offerings served with coconut milk, a hot chai and a quiche. I found the energy drink to be a bit lackluster compared to its description, I think I wished it had a bit more flavor. The dragon fruit flavor seemed to be lost amongst the coconut milk. The chai, however, was full of spice and delicious. I really appreciated that they offered multiple milk options including dairy free/vegan. The star was definitely the quiche though which we got heated up, the crust was flaky and buttery while the egg was well seasoned with tomatoes and mozzarella sprinkled throughout. The baristas were really kind and were patient as we perused the menu. I found the drinks to be a bit on the pricier side, especially for modifications. I don't think this would be my everyday coffee shop but definitely plan to stop by as a treat for some more of their baked goods when I am in town.

    You know they are a good breakfast spot when people are waiting at 6:15 for doors to open. We had…read morebreakfast here a few years ago and enjoyed it; wanted to go back but we don't eat breakfast often. Prices were higher this time, understandably. They are still better priced on a basic breakfast than other places nearby. I wanted to try their eggs Benedict even though I've only ever had it maybe 2-3 times in my life! I'm not a good person to judge since I'm not really sure what hollandaise should taste like! It was more tangy tart than I expected. The eggs were cooked the way they should be and the ham was thick. In my memory, it should've had a stronger ham flavor, as I think Canadian bacon is the traditional meat and I was hoping for that. But even eating a piece of the thick ham by itself, I couldn't taste a salty smoked ham flavor. While I found that disappointing, I couldn't take a star away because visually it looked great, and I imagine a lot of people would love to see that thick slice of ham even if it is too mild! Don't judge it by my photo because I broke my yolks and stirred them up before I remembered to take a photo. The grits (my choice of side) were just like I like them. My husband got a 2 eggs breakfast with home fries (?) sausage and toast. It was a full plate of food and he enjoyed it. They have home made strawberry jam (yum!) and I will for sure get breakfast with toast or biscuits next time just so I can have some of that jam. I did put a little bit of jam on a couple bites of my English muffin from under my Benedict. The coffee mug was tall so my husband appreciated that; and the friendly & attentive server, Melissa, filled it before empty, as needed. We will be back "sooner than later" hopefully, because there's more I want to try on their menu. I do recommend going here for breakfast especially if you are an early bird or find yourself out and about very early for some reason like we were, and need a breakfast. I think they might get crowded quickly, so early is better. Note that their hours were not accurate on the iPhone maps app - I submitted correct hours and it's pending approval. However I used the website hours and one of their days I think it was Sunday - was showing closed at 1 but it's actually 1:30.

    This has become one of our favorite restaurants in the area. Today we had a lunch special and a…read morebreakfast. Both were delicious. The meatloaf was very good and came with a bbq glaze and some bbq sauce on the two slices. The mashed potatoes are real, you can tell because they leave the skins on! My wife also had an order of the potato pancakes with applesauce. Those were fabulous! Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, done beautifully. They also provide a small bowl of applesauce which was very good and we appreciated the amount. I had tow biscuits with gravy, two scrambled eggs, and hash browns. In my opinion, they have the best biscuits and gravy in the area. Gravy has plenty of flavor and the biscuits are soft and flaky on the inside, yum. Chasity was our server and she was fantastic! Got our order right, checked back to make sure everything was good, and offered good conversation.

    On the day I came in, the card machine was down so it was cash only. The cashier kindly informed me…read morewhere the nearest ATM was, and offered to package up my donuts then so I could swing back around to pay when I got cash. She was very helpful and kind. The inside of the store is cute and has all of the donuts on display, as well as some seating. I ordered a mini apple fritter and a raspberry jam filled glazed donut. The apple fritter was served warm and had huge chunks of apple in it! It also had a really nice flavor, though it was a little greasier than I'd like. The raspberry jam filled glazed donut was definitely my favorite! The glaze was perfectly crackly and sweet, and the donut itself was so fluffy and soft. It had a very generous amount of that jam filling, which was both tart and sweet! Absolutely delicious and I definitely recommend this one.

    What a great find! It's a small bakery but it sure delivers some delicious sweets! I can understand…read morewhy this place has good reviews and a strong local following- the line was out the door for service. Today I only picked up a few sweets - an apple fritter, a valentines decorated donut, a cinnamon role, a cup of coffee and one other sweet item. Everything was very good. The line doesn't move too fast since every person's order seems like a custom order that has to be put together, but overall the wait is worth it!

This was my first time so she explained the coffee & tea portion and area. In the same shop there's also some unique wines for purchase, a chocolate area which is made in house! And even a wine tasting area. So awesome! Of course on top of that they sell all different types of coffee beans and some tea. I met my friend and we both got their coffee flight! WOW delicious and variety. It was a lot of caffeine but worth it and I was still fine to sleep that night haha, for my meal I got their breakfast sandwich, it was delicious and I love that it came with a side of fruit! I wish I lived closer but I will definitely come back here again. It's such a great idea, not just a morning cafe but great for the whole day. Some seating outside as well if you have a dog with you. Lots of parking in the lot and clean unisex restrooms!
