I have passed by this establishment on more than one occasion and I said to myself today is going to be the day I visit and see what's going on at this business... This is a nice place to order coffee, espresso drinks, sandwiches, soups, pastries. It reminds me of a Starbucks but with a local neighborhood feel and not the franchise style Starbucks has!. They have a drive thru, you can dine in.. carry out and they have delivery options as well. A nice spot to visit if you're in the area....

I dined here the other day and it was great! The food and service were spot on! I tried the purple…read morehaze latte with oat milk, which is an April drink special. It was light and yummy. I had the spinach and avocado bowl; added bacon and had a fried egg instead of a poached one. Those rosemary mushrooms were a great complement to the dish. I got some peanut butter truffles to go - just delicious!! They have several tables, and stay busy. But the food comes rather quickly! Check them out!!

I look forward to going back for brunch sometime soon. I loved the art and crafts throughout that were available for purchase from local artists. Nice spacious cafe with plenty of seating to relax, do some work, and/or enjoy a drink and some food. In the area? Check Them Out!

So cute! Large and…read morespacious seating with some cool vintage items inside for sale, a large counter area to order, new bathrooms, tons and tons of space to spread out inside, and a toddler play area stocked with goodies. The menu is pretty large and has breakfast all day, sandwiches, tons of drinks, and some pastries. Staff were very friendly and easily answered questions about the menu and made some recommendations for my mom and I who were between a few items. We had some nice breakfast sandwiches here (my mom's was DELICIOUS) and some iced teas that we loved. I chose the HORSEY HAM-WICH + tomato and lettuce but, I wasn't impressed. The ham was cold and it wasn't toasted though I probably could've asked for that... My mom chose the HANGOVER HELPER after I said I was looking it over. It consisted of a fried egg, house-smoked pastrami, swiss, russian dressing, on a toasted everything bagel. It was warm, filling, and just what I wish I ordered! Would happily come back in an instant. Really pleasant experience and relaxed vibes. Loved the little toddler area with a kitchen and some other goodies to entertain the kiddos. I've been now to the Smithfield Cure and the Norfolk as well as this one and this might be my favorite location. Norfolk is very nice - but, this one is more charming.

I love the space that Gather offers for meeting up for coffee, tea, and goodies. I typically love…read morean americano, but I don't love theirs. I do like their London Fog. Their regular pour coffee is also good. They are very friendly, but as it is very popular, it normally takes a while to receive your food/drinks. As for food, they have a lot of great options. My son loves their scones. I wouldn't recommend their avocado toast, as the avocado is packaged and not fresh. It doesn't have a nice flavor.

Once again our food was delicious and fresh! My friend really enjoyed her chicken salad sandwich. I…read moretried the salad my brother had last time and it was as good as it looked then. Delicious! I also like trying their unique flavors of iced coffees. You can sit in or outside. The staff were wonderful as always. Very helpful, informative, and friendly. In the area? Check Them Out!

I end up here whenever I'm thinking I need a cafe to focus on work. I love the vibe here - there's…read morea ton of seating across a few rooms and most people I've seen are also working on laptops, reading books, and quietly listening to their headphones. You have to park on the cobblestone street which really adds to the appeal. I normally grab a bagel, but today I was in an avocado toast mood. The breads and ingredients are always fresh and the drinks are thirst-quenching. There are shelves near the register where local artists sell some goods. The staff is great. You really can't go wrong with Cure if you need a bite and space to revise.

I've personally been dealing with this coffee company for 29 years. We have been using their coffee…read morefor 29 years and it's delicious. For many years now we've been using their espresso (machine and espresso pods) and it's delicious. Their coffee and espresso machines are very easy to use. Whenever we have issues with our machines, all I have to do is call up and they send a technician over to fix the issue on site. They have pretty much any and every type of syrup available to make lattes and cappuccinos. They have had the same employees for years. There is nothing negative I have to say about Tidewater Coffee. The best coffee company to deal with in the entire Hampton Roads area hands down!

The food was made fresh, the women working the truck were super friendly, and the food was delicious. They had a nice selection of coffees that I would love to try another time. Highly recommend!

The absolute best lattes in Hampton Roads, hands down. At this point I've basically tried it all-…read moreand time and time again come back to Bear House (they have been the actual reason I've gone to the Botanical Gardens multiple times, heh). They make all of their syrups in house- and they are absolutely splendid. Only this place can make me enjoy an espresso tonic- what even is that?! But it's delicious, just like everything they do. And, it's never ever too sweet. It's always barely sweet with an emphasis on flavor, not sugar. Ugh just so good. And what's more than that- the staff here are genuinely amazing people. The owner (I think?) always greets us and knows us well at this point, and makes the whole experience just that much better. These people are in the job that's right for them- which means their coffee is crafted with love. And that's the best kind of business to visit.

I made the arguably unwise decision to stop here late in the day on an Easter holiday when pastries…read morewere clearly on people's minds and the theme was chocolate eggs. It was a long wait in line. Towards the end of their limited hours, I was pleased that they still had a pretty good selection. They sold out of some things, but I found a robust selection of pastries and a loaf of bread as well, albeit one too big for their slices. With macarons and chocolate on sale as well, they had a lot worth coming for. The cake slices were as rich and smooth as one hopes for a French bakery, but several other pastries met with aplomb as well. I struggled to locate a high-end bakery in this geographic area, but did not regret having come to this one at all.

Unbelievable we have such an authentic French pastry shop here in Ghent…read more The service was so quick and the people were so kind, upon meeting eyes with a man baking in the back, he gave me a smile and a wave. The vibe was incredible too. Felt like you were in a French pastry shop. Outstanding place. We got a chocolatine, almond croissant, and apple turnover. All three were amazing, but the almond croissant was perfect.

We decided to pop in quick over the holiday weekend and we were not disappointed. It's a cute…read morelittle shop, a bit tight when you get in but there is seating inside off to the side as well as tables outside. I ordered from the summer menu and tried the Cinnamon Drift Latte (Housemade Horchata and Espresso) and it was sooo good. I only got a 16 oz and wished I got the 20! My daughter ordered a signature drink, the Botanist (Strawberry puree, milk, and matcha) with oatmilk and it was great. I want to go back and give that a try next. Lastly my husband ordered a cold brew with cold foam and enjoyed that as well. He also ordered the coffee cake and I wish I wasn't gluten free because it looked and smelled amazing. He enjoyed that while we sat outside for a bit. The service was quick, the staff was so friendly and patient, and the drinks were delish! We will definitely be back when we are in Norfolk!!

I'll be honest, at first, I didnt think that just because this place looked a little too pretty,…read morethey wouldnt produce really good coffee but I was wrong. The coffee was really good --it was fresh, smooth, and not bitter at all. I loved the aroma of their coffee. The staff was pleasant and knowledgeable, which made the experience even better. The interior also has some really nice artistic elements that add to the overall vibe. Its a really relaxed hangout spot for anyone. I love the windows and how the sun shined through.
