    Yummy cinnamon and sugar iced latte in cute drink-ware!!
    Kasie S.

    Super cute and classy coffee shop!!!! At first, while walking in I was a bit confused as it's attached to a gas station...but after going in, seeing the decor and overall high-end vibe, I realized you definitely can't judge based off the outside of a place and make assumptions. Walked in with my bestie and started browsing the menu. We weren't greeted upon entering, but the staff was still friendly-ish at checkout and helpful when we asked about menu items. My friend ordered an iced green tea frappe which was very good to me, but too sweet for her liking. She also ordered a breakfast sandwich on a croissant with ham and cheese but said it could've used some sauce or something but that it was still good. I ordered what the barista recommended and got an iced cinnamon and sugar latte with a build your own breakfast sandwich. I chose a croissant, bacon, provolone cheese, and an egg. The drink was pretty good, very sweet, but I like it sweet, so that was perfect. The sandwich was okay...the croissant itself was amazing and buttery, flakey perfection...but the bacon wasn't crispy, it was sort of limp and didn't seem like it was cooked well enough, or at least to my liking anyways. The cheese and egg were good, but the bacon part was a little disappointing to me, and I agree it could've used some sauce to tie the whole thing together, so next time I will ask for some. Overall, I would recommend this cafe, because it's very classy-looking aesthetically, and the drink-ware and plating was very pretty and seemed like there was a lot of love and effort placed in our drinks, food etc. If you go, just know that it is a bit pricey, and if you want your bacon or meat crispy, you definitely need to ask for that. I know people have different preferences sometimes. If you don't like a super sweet drink, don't order the iced green tea frappe, it's very sweet as I said before. Maybe ask the baristas what's best for your taste preferences before ordering and that would be helpful. :) I did notice there's a drive thru which is really awesome and rare for a small business coffee shop to have!! There is plenty of space to eat and drink and enjoy time there, and the bathroom is super clean and tidy!!!:)

    Friendly service. Absolutely delicious lattes. A spacious seating area to sip and yap or pop open your laptop and do some work. An all around fab spot! Only docked one star for limited parking, but it's worth the wait!

    Waterbean Coffee has a very clean and elegant atmosphere. They have several tables including a large group table. They also have several outlets available. The two staff members working during my visit were not especially friendly or interested in providing customer service. The shop offers several different coffees with various flavors, brews, etc. they also offer several sandwiches and baked goods. The coffee was a little expensive for the sizes. . I switched to the Chai tea latte instead and it was very good

    Had a chance to stop by Waterbean Coffee on a recent trip to Charlotte and it was cute! It's adjacent to a gas station, so you likely will have to search to find. But they've got great milk alternative options. I got the honey lavender latte special and avocado toast. Both were pretty good. The servers were kind. It's a good quick pit stop if you're headed on the highway.

    Wonderful experience at this Waterbean location! It was hardly busy for a Thursday morning. There are several outlets for people trying to get work done, and they also have a drive through. It doesn't look like much from the outside being attached to a gas station, but the inside atmosphere is the same as any other Waterbean location I've been to (Winston-Salem and Huntersville for reference). I always love the iced chai at Waterbean; I personally prefer it to all other iced chai I've had from coffee shops. I decided to try the macarons this visit too and loved them, especially the Italian cream!

    Super cute little find. I've been going on a coffee shop tour around the concord area recently and have found a few gems and a bunch of so-so spots. This place was one of the better ones I've found! The outside is a little unassuming since it's connected to a gas station, and that's one of the reasons I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5. But the inside is very cute. It's clean and bright and welcoming. Cute tables and chairs, nice long coffee bar, a cute little selection of bakery goods. They have a drive through. They have a good sized menu. They have their own brand of coffee beans you can buy. I got a chai tea latte and one of their seasonal coffee drinks- it was an iced latte with snickerdoodle cold foam. Both drinks were very good. My kids tried a rice crispy and that was good, nothing overly amazing, but still good. Good experience, I'd go back again.

    I recently found this place but I love it. It's an alternative to Starbucks, small , quaint and free internet.

    That gas station feel ends as soon as you walk in the door (they also have a drive-through).

    was in town for maki-madness and after savoring the savory I thought it fitting to get sweets for…read morethe sweet despite the rain coming down in buckets. please be aware that Villani's is spendy; not necessarily over priced but still spendy. so what's a guy to do? get fewer i suppose... and since I only wanted to pick up a couple items it works ;-) choco chip cookery are medium-large, well chipped, but light for their weight airy, not fluffy, pairing well with coldy cold 2% milk (genuine simulated bañaña flavor if you can score some...) lemon bars are dense, moist, sticky, sweet, and lemon. what else would you expect? these are convenient portions for halving when served with your favorite mule. the apres-deluvian covenant cake were refreshing in their simplicity and execution: chocolatey goodness over layers of otherwise indistinguishable pink, white, and green cakery. so light, so basic, so good with strong black tea. no indoor seating but this is a bakery review (also: most of the rest of the planet is available for a modest fee so maybe try there?)

    This bakery has the best Napoleons I have ever had anywhere! I have had my pick of New York…read morebakeries after living my entire life on Long Island and Villani's is the best I have ever had. They are open on Sundays which is hard to find in NC. They are friendly and accommodating. My son asked for napoleons as his birthday cake, so the lovely lady wrote on it for me which I appreciated very much. I always say I wish they were closer, but I probably would be in weekly if they were. Nice spot in Plaza Midwood so I don't mind coming here. Great Italian bakery.
