Really disappointed with this restaurant. The fundamental issue is that I thought the biscuits were…read moretoo dense and not light and fluffy like I prefer. The entire meal was disappointing. I know I made it look very pretty in my photos, but don't be fooled. Here is the complete review. We found the green tomatoes bland and appeared to have been frozen before being prepared. The "Gravy Train" with the mini biscuit was inedible. The gravy itself was OK. Nothing special, not one of the three were "great." But the mini biscuits were terrible, hard, dense chunks of dough. I ate one of them and discarded the rest. The "Chicken Ditch the Waffle" was equally terrible. Whatever they did to turn the biscuit into "fake" French toast is a 100% fail. They were as dense and unappealing as the mini biscuits. The chicken itself was fine. If I was only rating the chicken I'd probably give it a 3.5. The best dish was actually the "GOAT." It was served with a Standard biscuit which we thought was still too dense and dry. I recommend finding an independent restaurant that serves real, "from scratch" food. I should point out that the service crew in the dining room who delivered the food as well as provided cleanup and assistance, were exceptional. They were friendly, courteous, and focused on customer service. I'm sure they deserve more than they are being paid. It was obvious many of them were spanish-speaking immigrants. Not everyone in the restaurant treated them with the respect and gratitude they deserve. Here's the detail of our order from their menu. GRAVY TRAIN mini biscuits with samples of our gravies: sausage, mushroom, and smoked gouda mornay 9.25 FRIED GREEN TOMATOES O hand-breaded and served with ranch or pimento cheese (+1) 8.5 CHICK 'N DITCH THE WAFFLE we've ditched the waffle and replaced it with our biscuit-style french toast with a buttermilk fried chicken breast and Mike's Hot Honey 13.25 THE G.O.A.T. buttermilk fried chicken breast, sweet pepper jelly, goat cheese 12.25 DARK & SPICY BLOODY MARY poblano-tomato mix, vodka, garnish 11.25 (Overpriced and underwhelming)

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Undercurrent Coffee and I must say, it was an excellent experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm and friendly atmosphere that made me feel right at home. The coffee shop itself is cozy and comfortable, with plenty of comfy couches and seating options that are perfect for relaxing and enjoying your coffee. The decor is stylish and modern, which adds to the overall ambiance and feel of the place. But what really stood out to me was the quality of the coffee. The baristas at Undercurrent Coffee clearly take pride in their craft, and it shows in every cup they make. The coffee was smooth, flavorful, and expertly brewed, and I found myself going back for a second cup before I knew it. Another thing that I loved about Undercurrent Coffee was that they always had a mug available. There's nothing worse than having to drink your coffee out of a paper cup, and I appreciated that they took the time to provide a more sustainable and enjoyable option. Overall, I would highly recommend Undercurrent Coffee to anyone looking for a friendly and comfortable coffee shop with delicious coffee. The atmosphere, quality of the drinks, and attention to detail all make for an outstanding experience that is sure to leave you feeling satisfied and refreshed. read more

That particular day, I had a bad experience at another coffee shop after wasting money on an iced latte that was horrid. When I walked into Summit, I said to the barista, look I can't take another bad coffee, do I have to tell you I want it sweet in order to get an iced latte that isn't bitter? The barista took the time to speak with me regarding my experience and share how Summit makes their coffee and syrups. She even let me sample one.

Service was friendly and efficient. I got a large chai latte and peppermint tea which came out to about $10. The chai was ok.. it's a store bought mix that is on the sweeter and more mild side. I probably would not get this again and would order an espresso based latte instead (only because I like a strong chai and it's hard to adjust the flavor of a premade mix). Overall they seems to have a good variety of coffee based drinks to choose from. A few pastries available as well. The merch looked cute too!
