    Iced Salted Caramel Latte
    Robert D.

    Best coffee shop in the solar system. Perfect atmosphere. Very well lit with a modern look. Comfortable seating. Good people running this place. No issues with WiFi. Jarvis the robot who just turned 1 makes all the coffee. He could afford to be a little more sociable. Thats my only complaint. He does though have a nice hat and he dances when no one is looking. Ordered the pretzel which is filled with cheddar cheese thats made in a box. Came out fresh. Also ordered the iced salted caramel latte which they said was their most popular coffee. Tastes great. Very creamy and refreshing. Definitely plan to be here more often than not in the near future.

    Yuzu has been prepared.

    Comfortable setting to come in and relax. Aaron was friendly and excited to welcome his customers. Many options for drinks and snacks. I had the Hot Rose Yuzu and cronut, both quite tasty. Husband had the hot mocha and Cuban rolls and was pleased. The coffee/tea drinks and pastries are prepared by robotics which is fun to watch. They also have beer on tap, brewed on site. Husband tried a 4 oz pour of The IPA and said it was a good standard IPA.

    Awesome spot out in Ruskin - it's a brewery and a nice little coffee spot all in one. The barista bot by Artly coffee is a cool experience on its own, but the vibes inside of this brewery are also great - very relaxed, family-friendly, and the owner Aaron is great with his customers. He greeted us promptly when we walked in and walked me through the ordering process with the barista bot - it was quick and fun to watch the process. Haven't tried the brews yet, but excited to bring the family back for a visit!

    Wow, such a neat concept and close to home. Robotic coffee making so 21st century. Kiosk ordering and watch the choreography dance as your coffee selection is fresh brewed. Today was customer cronut day (yeah). The coffee was excellent as was the pastry. Waiting on the grand opening of their home brewed beer selections sometime in September. A must try stop in and relax

    Wow! So impressed and so excited to have a Coffee/Wine, Beer, and Cider Shop so close here in Sun City Center. Aaron, the owner is so friendly! They've only been open a few months. They're still ironing out some kinks but working on getting fully staffed and offering longer hours. They brew their beer on site. It's so popular they ran out but I was able to try a really nice flavorful red blend wine which was 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet. I ordered a cup of Mocha to go compliments of Jarvis the Robot. They have a snack machine on site if you get the munchies. You can order your hot and cold teas/coffees from the Artly App. It's a cozy place to sit and chat with friends and neighbors. Located right across from the Cypress Creek Golf Club. Can't wait to try the beer. I'm eyeing the Kolsch!

    Their brut is love at first taste....

    I'm soooo glad I FINALLY got to try the ice cream here! It's been bookmarked for a long time…read more Jack's Shack uses ice cream from Yoder's, which is one of the best ice creams in the area! They have a lot of good flavors. I had the Triple Peanut Butter ice cream w/ crushed Oreos on top. My mom had the Mudslide ice cream w/ pecans on top. Both were incredibly good. This place is super cute inside too. They have 4 or 5 tables, and some stools near the front. There was only one person working, but he did a good job getting everyone's order & making everything in fairly good time. I also wasn't in a hurry though. I noticed they had a few take out orders, which is a good idea if you're in a hurry. I will definitely be back to try the other flavors.

    Great little ice cream parlor! Lot of choices from varied ice cream flavors ( yum the black cherry…read morewas awesome!) shakes, rolled ice cream in a cup -- maybe new fave. This rolled ice cream is clearly a skill. They take ice cream, place it on a super cold plate which is likely powered to freeze, spread it out real thin, then use something similiar to a paint scraper or 1 1/2" putty knife and slowly push the ice cream fwd on a freezing plate causing it to roll. They continue to the other side of a the plate making 1 roll. They repeat the process stacking them side by side in a cup till its full and put on toppings to complete the creation. Its really Yum! My new fave. Priced moderately, service is great! Try them out. I was there twice. Friendly people!

    Bunker Hill Vineyard in Parrish is such a quaint little gem! We discovered it on our way to the…read moreStrawberry Festival and are so glad we stopped. It's a small, family-owned spot with such a warm, welcoming feel. The owners were incredibly friendly and made the whole experience even better. We even donated about six of our used wine bottles to them, which made it feel fun and personal in a unique way. They offer wine tastings, and the wines themselves feel clean, light, and thoughtfully made. Definitely a hidden local find worth visiting!

    TL;DR - I was totally blown away by this hidden gem. There's no other way to describe this…read moreexperience. Let's just say I learned a lot about Bunker Hill Vineyard & Winery. I also had the pleasure of meeting the husband and wife duo that makes all of these Florida grown products. They made this experience so much fun. All you need to know is that their natural wines, jellies, and jams were all amazing. There's something for everyone here. So, I decided to take a different route back to Brandon from Ellenton just so that I could try these wines. It was an easy drive on US-301 as I made my way to Wauchula Rd. This is where the adventure started for me. It's a 2 lane road with a speed limit of 60 MPH that takes you past farm lands and phosphate mines. I honestly felt like I was lost in the middle of nowhere. Thank goodness for GPS. I pretty much knew that Bunker Hill Road would be coming up soon after passing Lake Parrish, and there it was. The winery is across the street and to the left of the fork in the road. There's plenty of parking in front of it along rows of grape vines. At that point, I was just happy that I found it. I didn't really get a chance to explore around the vineyard. Lenora found me in front of the farm winery accessory building where the wine tasting would begin. That's when I also met Larry as they invited me inside the tasting room. What a cool set up they have! It's inside of what looks like a heavily insulated Quonset hut. Larry explained the differences between unfiltered and filtered wine. Honestly, I didn't know there was a difference. It raised so many questions, and actually made me aware of all the additives that are placed into manufactured wines during the filtering process. Some that I have actually been sensitive to in the past. It was interesting to hear about their process, and even the way they recycle their bottles and jelly jars. They are truly sustainable. What I also noticed is that most (if not all) of their wines are vegan. I'm not vegan, so it's not something that I usually look for. I just didn't know that animal proteins are commonly used in the process of making wine. It's all very interesting. Let's talk about the wine tasting. There's a list of medium dry, dry, and sparkling wines. I made my selections from the list of medium dry wines. I did take some suggestions from them, and I'm so glad that I did. Otherwise, I would have never tried the Bamboo Herbal Tea or Dandelion Flower Petal. Just open your mind to all the possibilities. Your palate will thank you later. There are fruit, vegetable, flower, coffee, tea, and even bamboo wines. I think I saw rice wine as well. If it has grape, then it's the muscadine variety. If you want a mixture, then I totally suggest the Strawberry/Grape wine. This one was one of my favorites. I was also in love with the Guava wine. The same goes for the jam. It's insanely wonderful. You can get it with or without the seeds. I wanted to buy all of the ones on my list. I ended up getting six 12 oz. bottles so that I could share them with my husband. He was just as amazed as I was with his samples of wine. The flavors are so clear and with such a great color and aroma. There was no unpleasant after taste, and it wasn't overly sweet like other Florida fruit wines that I've tasted. I didn't get that wine headache which usually happens with red wines. I guess I'm just sensitive to something in it. I also sampled Lenora's Bamboo Leaf Herbal Tea. It was so refreshing! What a great way to end the tasting. Anyway, I tried 6 different samples for $6. They are truly just a sample. Don't expect to get full size glasses. It's not a wine bar. However, you can purchase a charcuterie platter if you call 24 hours in advance of your tasting. They'll have it ready for you. Once you do the first wine tasting, the other tastings will be complimentary when you return. That's when I plan on trying the vegetable wines. There is one that actually tastes like a salad. I didn't get to try the coffee wine, but I did sample the coffee wine jelly. It was actually very good. The starfruit wine jelly is even better. I can't wait to go back. Hopefully my husband will come along with me next time. I think he would love sampling the wines and jellies. I didn't really get to see the rest of the vineyard this time around. Maybe next time. Thank you Larry & Lenora for making it such an informative & fun experience.
