Whether it's boba tea, smoothies or coffee, they rarely disappoint. Let's see how things turned out. We were greeted by the staff once we walked in. Like many times, the decor was spotless and the vibe calm There were a few customers inside either dining in or ordering takeout. We knew what we wanted before entering so it took no time to order. I selected one of their Spring items, Brown Sugar Rose-Berry Freshmilk with brown sugar pearls, in honor of cherry blossoms for the State of Virginia. A very good drink indeed. Not too sweet and full of flavor. Some of the pearls did get stuck together (they were served hot after all), but it was no problem. Thank you once again Joyu for having us feel comfortable with much needed drinks. You'll see us again soon :)

Um YES PLEASE!!!…read more This was a last minute decision to stop when we were on our way back from the farmers market and BOY am I glad we stopped in! Buckroe coffee was one of the best coffee shops I've been to in quite some time, too bad it's on the other side of the water from our house! Walking in you can tell it was once a bank, LOVE older buildings and stories like this! The atmosphere inside was amazing, there were all different types of customers enjoying conversation, working, and just enjoying time in their 3rd place. I ordered a blended mocha frappe. PERFECT on the hot day! My daughter ordered a lemon & white chocolate latte and it was one of the best she has had (and like her mother, she does love her coffee and is VERY picky) My husband went the non coffee route and ordered a Mango smoothie and found it refreshing and finished it in the car on the way home. If you are on the hampton side of the water I highly recommend you stopping at Buckroe coffee. You will not be disappointed. I can't wait to head back up to the farmers market so I can stop here again on the way home :)

Decided to finally try out Buckroe Coffee after a long trail walk. What a pleasant surprise!…read moreI was welcomed upon entering and the cashier was extremely helpful with what to choose for my first visit. I substituted oat milk in my crème brûlée latte and it was a great substitution without changing the taste of the drink. Not too sweet. My breakfast sandwich was nice and flavorful. Croissant crispy and light, cheese nicely melted. I would have liked my bacon consistently crispy but it didn't take away from the quality or taste at all. Now the açaí bowl...wow! As soon as I lifted the lid, I could smell the fresh fruits. It was a great balance of fresh ingredients. This was my favorite item. Great value for the price and I can't speak enough on the freshness of the ingredients. 100% returning!!

The seasonal menu was purely AI generated imagery, their other signs as well. They have environmental focused branding, with the help of an environmental destruction tool (AI). All gender restrooms available and handicap parking (at least one spot) * Captain Mike was behind the bar, very kind, genuine and personable. He asked my name and referred to another guest by name. Upon entry with my service dog he did verify he was indeed a SD. He also was very attentive with recommendations and suggestions based on what he enjoyed and what would suit my preferences! * I got the cardamom lavender latte which was very delightful! The cardamom was very pleasant and I am appreciative of how well it shined through! I also got the "great smokey mountain" I think! Breakfast sandwich. To my personal taste for a simple breakfast sandwich it was a bit on the high side for price - around $11 but it does taste good! Options of croissant or ciabatta bread. Non dairy options are available! I personally am not inclined to return due to all of the ai generated content. Pangaea should invest and support local artists and creators and uplift the community surrounding them. They would likely get more support overall! I am an artist myself and could see so much potential in -ai branding! Thanks!

There was a baby shower happening while we were there, so it was a little loud, but it didn't take away from the experience. It's a charming spot in an equally cute, walkable neighborhood. Great place to stop for brunch, coffee and something from the bakery case.

I also had the pistachio cloud latte with oat milk. I dined in, and it gave me an opportunity to check out the bistro. They have indoor and outdoor seating. They also have wine and mimosas.
