    This is such a great coffee shop. Bought a mystery book and came back multiple days in a row for the cold brew with the toasted marshmallow. This will be my go to spot every year when we visit OBX.

    Fantastic coffee shop with some pastries and great coffee. The service was great and the Snickers Latte is the best!!!

    I liked the overall vibe of this place and the bead shop was cool, but I ordered a really simple drink and there was so much built-up espresso grounds at the bottom of the cup. I'd already been to another coffee shop that morning and experienced the same problem, which is quite frustrating. I work at a coffee shop myself, and I am aware of how easy it is to get grounds in a drink but also of how to prevent it and deal with it when it happens. I really empathize with baristas and I know how easy this mistake is to make, but if you look at the picture, it's quite a lot.

    Stopped here to grab some coffee. I got the sandspur and I enjoyed it. My friend got the cold brew and it wasn't too good.

    This is a solid choice for coffee and sweets, though neither was anything to rave about. I had their regular drip coffee and a muffin, which was extremely sweet (yes, I know muffins are supposed to be sweet but this one was extra sugary). The place is worth a visit but probably not a return trip.

    Delicious coffee. The coconut one is my favorite and the baristas are friendly. Great vibes.

    They have excellent coffee. It's delicious hot or iced. They have great service and cool items to browse while waiting.

    My friend got Skate Rat, which is made with chocolate, vanilla, caramel, and hazelnut; honestly loved his more but I'll get it next time.
