This is a hidden gem of the Smithfield/Selma area!

The kids play corner is also a big hit for this mama who loves to do story time across the street at the library then pop over to Gilded Pear for a bit. They just launched their August menu and I cannot wait to try it all!

The Gilded Pear is located in Downtown Smithfield. It is located in the Hood-Spiers Building, which…read morehas been restored. It was built in 1900 and still has the original tin ceiling, decorative windows and exposed brick. Seating is on two floors, providing a cozy feel if sitting in the loft. They have the "Pear Necessities of Life" This is both a cafe for coffee and teas but also a bakery that serves breakfast and lunch. They are known for their bubble waffles, and crepes. But also have a large menu that has sandwiches, salads, flat breads and breakfast items. There should be something that appeals to even the pickiest eater. Ordering is done at the counter, and you receive a number, and the beverage and food are brought to your table. The menu is posted outside the entrance so you can check it out first. I went with a rose and cranberry lemonade that was a drink special, and the bubble waffle, and added strawberries and bananas. The bubble waffle intrigued me as I had never had one before. It is a honeycomb waffle popular in Hong Kong. It is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It looks like bubble wrap, which is hard to tell as mine was covered in strawberries and bananas. I enjoyed the texture and flavors of it. The Gilded Pear is a great addition if you're looking for somewhere to grab a quick bite to eat.

My son picked out a strawberry cream cheese donut + devoured it before I could snap a pic so you know it was good! Their breakfast items looked really yummy so I'll for sure be back to try one of those and some ice cream! Loved that they had indoor and outdoor seating for any time of year. Overall a great find.

I've seen their coffee flights online and they always look delicious- spoiler, they are! I tried the mint chocolate chip, banana pudding, frosted animal cookie, and coconut lattes. The only one I thought was just okay was the coconut, the flavor was fine but something about the shaved coconut toppings and syrup didn't do it for me. The other three, however, were delicious! The frosted animal cookie was my favorite by far. I'd love to come back to try the other two flavors! I also tried the Sonder Smash- it was so tasty!! It's an English muffin with pesto, cream cheese, sausage, and an egg (I took off the tomato). It was super filling and delicious. I highly recommend! Overall- great spot with fun drinks and food. I recommend!

(So be prepared to wait--and maybe know what you want to order so you're ready when you get to the register.) Before heading out of town, a friend and I were recommended to pop into Sonder for the coffee flight. When we were ready to order, we were advised that they only had enough cups for one iced coffee flight, but they could do a hot coffee flight. Both wanting iced, we opted to get a regular sized coffee and smoothie bowl to go. Though disappointed about the inability to try the (iced) coffee flight, the lattes we did order and my friend's smoothie bowl were delicious! We will definitely be going back to try out their new location and the coffee flight!

We ordered a PB smoothie and the chicken and waffles. The only seating is outside, but it's covered and they had fans running. They also had the ring on a string game that you can play at your table while you wait! This was my first time having a liege waffle, it was sweet and heavier than I expected, and went well with the chicken tenders (which were fried and seasoned to perfection, I did not expect a waffle place to have some of the best fried chicken I've had in a while). We got to meet one of the owners, Reed, before we left, and he was so sweet and made us feel welcome. We will definitely be making a trip back out to try some different waffles!

This drink is absolutely delicious--easily one of the best coffees around, in my opinion. The coffee is never bitter, and the staff is always so friendly, which makes every visit even better. Scooter's, you need to open a location in Raleigh! I also tried the mini sugar cookies, which were okay--not bad, but definitely not as tasty as their iced sugar cookies (I miss those!). Unfortunately, the pretzel bites were a letdown. They lacked flavor, and the cheese dip didn't help--it was pretty bland. Despite a few misses on the snacks, Scooter's coffee is what keeps me coming back. Highly recommend it for the drinks and the great service!

Their food tasted fresh and warmes up perfectly. They are always kind and prompt to get our order. It is a small little hut so the drive through is a big loop but goes quickly.
