    The baristas were so awesome ! My friend was late so I had her on the phone trying to order her drink and the guy said he could talk to her on the phone to help her out. She got a matcha "flap jack" which she said was really good. I got the almond joy which heavy cream and stevia instead of simple syrup, and although it wasn't sweet like I wanted it (my fault for not asking if they had sugar free syrup lol), but the flavor of the cold brew and espresso was so good. I could also taste the coconut extract and it was a nice blend. I really enjoyed my coffee. They have awesome upbeat vibes. I also loved the little ducks they give you. They give you one in your favorite color and then give you an extra to give someone else who needs a little extra luck. I just think it's such an adorable concept. They were a 10/10 for me and def get there early because they get busy fast lol.

    Great coffee spot. No complaints here- friendly service, quick, has parking lot, good coffee. I picked up an iced coffee and a desert rose latte. I was asked what sweetness I wanted with my latte, which is a nice touch. I don't like too sweet so I chose their "little sweet" option and it was just right. These 2 drinks came to about $11 in total. Parking was easy during a weekday- make sure you park in their lot and not the Nextdoor churches. The gal at checkout was friendly and gave my toddler a sticker- so that five bonus points for me!

    Exceptional lattes! As the name suggests, come here for the "brew." We ordered the desert rose and banana bread lattes, and in both you could taste the strong, high quality coffee mixed with the flavors. I can see why the banana bread latte has gone viral - it has a combination of warm spices like cinnamon and clove with the banana flavor, which doesn't taste artificial. And mine was handed to me with a cute mini plastic unicorn - what a way to start the day! Next time, I'll skip the food. We ordered the breakfast burrito with avocado and sausage as well as the cinnamon roll. The tortilla of the burrito wasn't warm, and there was only avocado on one end. It was nicely cheesy though. The cinnamon roll reminded me of the kind you make at home out of a tube - I'd prefer if it was warm, with cream cheese icing and bolder cinnamon flavor to differentiate it from a grocery store purchase. The inside is eclectic, with colorful Sharpies that encourage customers to write all over the walls. The porch and front yard offer comfortable seating for nice CLT mornings. I'll see ya when it's time for my next latte!

    Ran by the nicest Arabic family I've ever met, this places' customer service was a 1000/10. They were kind, funny, and genuinely cared that we enjoyed ourselves. We went specifically to try their Banana Bread Latte (aka the BBL, which made us laugh), and while it was cute in name, I'll be honest it didn't really taste like banana bread. It leaned more on the bitter side, so if you're expecting something super sweet or dessert-like, you might want to tweak it with a syrup or sugar. I also had an everything bagel that came stacked with cream cheese..., a borderline cream cheese sandwich. Personally, I was into it, but if you're not a cream cheese lover, you might want to ask for a lighter spread. Overall, I'd definitely go back just for the energy, service, and to try something else on the menu. The vibes are unmatched. Oh and they also have a chess board inside!

    If there is a banana bread latte on the menu... I'm gonna get it. This one was pretty good and I liked how they asked what sweetness level I wanted. I also love Dilworth and this is in such a good location. The only thing I don't like is the inside. It's not cozy coffee shop that I want to camp out in for hours.

    Such a cute vibe there are plenty of spaces for seating, they converted the whole house. The baristas were Very kind in explaining the menu items and I throughly enjoyed the pastries and tea/coffee. I got to try my mom's Turkish coffee and it was flavorful.

    Best spot for coffee I've found in Charlottee so far. Their breakfast burritos and dubai chocolate croissants are to die for. The service here is what keeps me coming back too - TK manages to make my day everyday. That man was concocted with sugar, spice, and everything nice. He spreads that to the food and the customers every time I visit. Upon driving up, this place is unassuming because it simply looks like a home refitted to offer food service. The front room inside has been graffitied with sharpies reminiscent of the bathroom at your favorite local bar. It feels homey and approachable. If that's not your vibe, don't fret, the front porch furniture, complete with a fire pit or the adirondak chairs on the front lawn also welcome everyone in from the sun for conversations over coffee with your friends. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this place.

    The staff is super friendly and always happy to customize your drink just the way you like it. If you're into something unique, definitely try the Banana Bread Latte - it's amazing. Tastes just like banana bread in a cup, with the perfect balance of sweet and cozy. Great atmosphere, great people, and awesome coffee. Highly recommend!

    Vibe was unique for Charlotte, love that this is a house that's been turned into a coffee shop. Service was speedy and friendly, and the coffee was good. Nothing too notable, good or bad. Solid spot for a cup of coffee.

    It was my first time visiting this coffee shop, and overall, it was a fine experience. I ordered the pistachio baklava latte, which I was really excited about, but it didn't quite meet my expectations--I didn't really taste the pistachio or baklava flavors. However, the service was fantastic. The owner at the front was incredibly accommodating and friendly, even telling me I could change my order or have it adjusted if I wasn't happy. My friend got the almond croissant and said it was delicious. The vibe of the place is cool, and we had no trouble finding seating even on a busy Sunday. One fun little touch is they give you a cute mini duck, which added a bit of charm to the experience. While the drink didn't wow me, the friendly service and welcoming atmosphere definitely made up for it.

    I am not one to leave a review. But this place deserves one. T.K. was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about coffee. I will certainly be back.

    10 out of 10, breakfast burrito was fresh and delicious, Best part is you can pick your sweetness level for your coffee. Owners are passionate and of course the mini ducks are a bonus!

    Just looking for some coffee while on a trip and stumbled upon this place. Very friendly service and a pretty neat interior. The coffee was pretty tasty and they gave out little tiny ducks! Adorable

    TJ is the best barista in CLT. Great beverages, atmosphere, service. It's newly opened so some parts are still on the making.

These folks may not give you forks, but they know what they're doing! Service has always been friendly and helpful, despite how busy the line can get. The cubanos are amazing - I've gotten the original and also the BBQuban. The OG is super solid, but OMG that BBQ one is just delectable and a great texture. Trust me. Try it. They also have the best yucca fries I've probably ever had. My issue with most yucca fries is that the texture tends to be pretty tough, but these are so soft inside - like they mashed the yucca first and then formed the fries. I don't know what magic they use, but they're incredible, and you must get some. We also got a churro filled with dulce de leche, and it came out nice and hot with lots of cinnamon sugar coating. I didn't love the dulce de leche filling for some reason - maybe I got spoiled by spending time in Argentina - so next time I'll likely go for the regular churro.

Not only was every order right, cooked fresh and hot, but they brought all orders into our space so our guests didn't have to wait outside for their order. Our guests raved about the food and people are still thanking us for introducing the truck to them! They were very professional and prompt. I'd hire them again in a heartbeat for an event.

Pud Thai Drunken Noodles Pud See Ew Veggie springs rolls (These are effing amazing. That tangy tamarind sauce is legit) The menu is simple and only has about 5 entree choices. I'm sure they rotate, but would probably remain simple. I went with the Pud See Ew -- #2 spicy. While it was quite delicious, the spice factor was nowhere to be found. I should have gone with somewhere in the range of a #7. Those spring rolls? Seriously. Get them. You get 10 for $7. Though they are small, they are perfect for sharing between two people. Since it's Thai, and they are making orders as the tickets roll in, it takes a while. Guess that's the biggest commonality for Food Truck Friday, though, yeah? I'd order from these dudes again in a heartbeat. Good stuff. Plus, the guy at the window wears a sweet fedora. *tips hat in recognition of good style* Carry on!
