Price was good for the portion and quality of food. The atmosphere was warm and comfortable, perfect for a hang out with friends or just getting some work done - although it does get pretty busy and loud at certain times. The staff was friendly and the order was prepared quickly. It had a relaxed vibe that made it easy to stay and enjoy the space.

I got my usual iced coffee and thought it was just fine. I couldn't quite put my finger on the after taste. Almost a bit smoky or noticeable roasted flavor. There is a lot of seating available to linger and enjoy your beverage. Overall a pleasant experience but wouldn't be my top stop in the area for an iced coffee.

Place was huge and many seats open again being there at 9am. Majority of the plugs are on one side of the wall but honestly wasn't really looking for one just noticed it. Folks are nice and seems like they were quite happy doing what they do! I highly recommend if you're in the area.

It has a comfortable local coffee shop feel rather than feeling like a typical chain. The coffee was good and thoughtfully made. You can tell they put care into their drinks, and the quality was consistent. The menu had a nice variety of options, making it easy to find something whether you prefer classic coffee drinks or something a little different. Service was friendly and the overall experience was enjoyable. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that while everything was good, I didn't have a single drink or item that completely stood out as unforgettable.

Their menu always has something new and fun to try, and their food items are very healthy and fresh. The only downside is it's a little bit pricey as someone who needs a milk alternative, but as long as I have the extra funds in my account I am heading here!

The donuts are exceptional...always fresh, soft, and some of the best you'll find anywhere. It's one of those places that keeps our family coming back. What makes it even more special is Mike. Every time we walk in, he treats our family like we're regulars. He's genuinely kind, welcoming, and always takes the time to make our kids smile. In fact, every time we leave, my kids say, "He's just so nice." Great donuts will bring you in. Great people keep you coming back. Thank you, Mike, for making Country Donuts a place our family loves.

It has a great neighborhood feel and would be a nice place to catch up with friends or enjoy a casual dinner. The dinner menu had some good options, and the food was enjoyable overall. Everything was well prepared, though I'd like to come back and try more of the menu--especially their brunch, which I've heard is one of their highlights. Service was friendly and the overall experience was pleasant. I think there's still more to explore, which is why I'm leaving it at 4 stars rather than higher since I haven't gotten the chance to try the full range of what they offer. Overall: 4 stars. A cute spot with a great atmosphere and a good dinner experience. I'd definitely come back to try their brunch and see what else they have to offer.

There was so much to choose from between black, green, and herbal teas. This was my 1st time buying loose leaf tea and I purchased a breakfast blend, oolong, and rooibos tea. I was compelled to get a small tea infuser and my breakfast tea has been so good that I'm never going back to premade tea bags again. It's all smooth with none of the harsh or bitter taste from the tea leaves that I am well familiar with that accompanies tea bags. The tea seems to be of good quality and you can reuse the tea leaves a few times for several robust cups of tea. This place is pricey right down to the candles. Lots of spice blends here I could do myself, but some are very creative. Expect to see salts, peppers, rubs, honeys, and different sugar mixtures.
