While getting a tour of the local area, I heard Condor chocolates was the place to go to get…read moresweets. I'm always down for something sweet so of course we had to come check it out. Walking up to the place, I love the bright red tables outside. It adds such a fun vibrancy to the place. The windows are also decorated with beautiful strands of color. It creates such a fun vibe. I noticed the beautifully crafted truffles displayed in the glass case. They all looked so good! I asked the sweet gal for a variety of 8 pieces. I also got a salted caramel brownie as well. My truffles got boxed up with a cute white bow. My brownie was getting warmed up while the gal was helping another guest. I checked out the other items for sale while I was waiting for my brownie. I love all the Georgia Bulldog themed chocolates. There was also a different variety of chocolate bars available. I noticed they also sold espresso and coffee drinks at the shop. I wish I would have known about the coffee! I would have rather grabbed coffee from this joint and not from Starbucks. It will be something I'll have to try next time. My brownie was so good! The love the flakes of salt on the brownie. The sweet and salty combo is always a winner. It was heated up just right! There were caramel ribbons were in every bite. It's very decadent! Make sure you have a big glass of cold milk. You'll need it for this brownie! This was a neat little chocolate joint I got to check out. They have some really good sweets that you must try! The hazelnut truffle is a must have. I can't wait to share my truffles with my friends and family. I'll be sharing a piece of Athens with them.

Tons of chairs and distance to spread out and do work if need be, right in town. The decor is very modern, and while I don't like UGA stuff plastered everywhere as a townie, I still appreciate the local addition to the inside. So far, I have ordered two drinks: // Taro slush w/ golden boba // Hokkaido milk tea w/ crystal boba The were both great, and prepared fast as heck. Also love bubble tea spots were you can adjust the sweet and ice level, which they do. I wasn't sure if I'd notice much of a difference between the different boba options, but I now know that I'll want to pair a lighter boba with certain drinks, as the crystal boba was just that, Golden a step above, and I think the balance of the light crystal boba with the rich caramel flavor of the Hokkaido went very well together, and I think I prefer it over the classic tapioca pearl in this context; hats off to Ding for helping me discover this for an even tastier and well-rounded drink. They were efficient, fast, and the quality hasn't seemed to suffer. Now, on to the few cons: // Ordering with the weird microphone at the divided window panes at checkout; it seems both the cashier and the customer have a hard time understanding each other, having masks to not follow lips makes it harder, had to repeat things on my order both times. Not a big deal, but an inconvenience, and I appreciate them putting up COVID measures from the get-go. // Boba isn't included in the main drink price. It's usually 55¢ extra (a little more for premium toppings), and maybe this just comes from me being used to having it included, it's why I'm coming to a bubble cafe, after all. I think it may be so they can offer more boba varieties, so again, not the biggest deal, but another perceived inconvenience from what I'm used to, may not even be the standard, so I'm not too off put because I may lack perspective. // The staff seem like they are still figuring it out both times I went by, and they weren't rude or the like.. just eh, but they may very well be stressed, it does seem like a lot to have train folks with with all their options. // No food options / little snacks I looked for this and didn't see any, but will update if I stand corrected or they bring snacks options to the menu. I do mainly want the drink, but if I want to sit and read or work on something it'd be nice to have the option. All in all, I am happy with this new bubble tea establishment, and I want to see it stick around.

You can honestly never go wrong with brown sugar as a flavor. I also tried the passion fruit milk tea with star fruit jelly. Definitely a new favorite, I was reluctant to try a fruit milk flavor but it was surprisingly refreshing! The caramel Hokkaido black milk tea was super yummy too and more dessert-like. You can't go wrong with any flavor here! Prices and sizes are fair and workers are super sweet.

I washed mine down with iced tea as one does. It's a nice space. Cheers!

What an adorable little ice cream shop! We decided to try this place on a playdate the other day…read moreand really enjoyed it. It's like a cute little cozy cottage with ice cream but tip parking is limited. When you go inside you'll see a large menu with all of their flavors and cones etc. It smelled amazing in there like pure waffle cone bliss!! The kids sampled several flavors and they use mini metal spoons for the samples. The service was great they were very patient while we tried a couple of different flavors and were very helpful. I ended up getting a single scoop of the honey vanilla bean in a cup and it was tasty and came with a piece of the waffle cone which I was dying to try after smelling it when we walked in. My daughter got the rootbeer float flavor and loved it! One friend went with the lemon bar and the other did the mint chip and they both raved about how good it was! We took our ice cream to their back patio and enjoyed it at a lovely picnic table with an umbrella. It was a very nice afternoon with a little breeze perfect ice cream weather! The honey vanilla bean was great very soft vanilla flavor with a touch of honey nothing too over the top which was great. The waffle cone was also tasty a little salty for my taste but I'm very sensitive to those kinds of things the rest in my party didn't even notice. When we were leaving we went along the side to the parking lot and we saw another large menu with a table and a window to order from as well it was very cute!! Overall, it's the perfect little spot for a nice ice cream cone or cup with good company!

My visit was during the morning rush so there was a line to order but aside from it allowing me more time to choose my breakfast treats, I was also able to watch the baker pulling out fresh bread from the oven. It's truly a working bakery. The blue and white exterior is very eye catching as you arrive in the area and the warm natural color tones inside the bakery are soothing and elegant. The staff who took my order, as well as the one who made my coffee order, were very friendly and calm, despite having a decent line of eager customers hoping what they wanted wasn't taken by the customers before them. Tight quarters inside so not really a place to sit and savor your selections but they do have seating outside, in a patio area next door. If you purchase loaves of bread, you are able to have it sliced! I'm looking forward to trying the bread next time I'm in town. Definitely add this place to your next visit to Athens!

My favorite is the chocolate covered Twinkie and smite. It is the thickest and smoothest chocolate. The ice cream is amazing as well.
