Okay, first things first, this spot is SO cute. I did not realize that the theme was LOTR despite being a huge LOTR fan, so it was a nice surprise when I stopped in. While there, I grabbed a latte and the Thorin breakfast biscuit. To add prosciutto it would have been an extra $3, which would have made the breakfast biscuit $9.25. Does that feel excessive? Yes. Do I wish I had done it? Also yes. The biscuit was good but it needed something else and I do think the meat would have been a good add. The latte was just okay. We're very lucky to have so many good coffee spots in the area so they are up against steep competition. Overall, really neat concept, cute spot, great for teleworking.

Stopped by after trying out the sauna at Melt Well right next door. It was quiet and not at all packed, plenty of seating around 2pm Friday. The oatmeal cream pie that looked to be the size of my head, caught my eye and it did not disappoint. The cream was not super sweet which was nice and the oatmeal cookie part was soft! I also got their fruit blend tea, iced. I think next time I'll add a point or two of their syrups for a bit more sweetness.

8/24/2025-order counter with menu

Food: 4.5 Service: 5 Ambience: 5 Date/Time: 8/24/2025 12pm Crowd: 1/4 full Order: Aragorn, Balrog This is a really unique set up for a restaurant. The seating area is fully open concept with plush chairs all around along with tables and chairs along the perimeter. And in the middle is a full sofa with chairs facing it. In the back are bookcases full of books. In the front right as you enter is a kids area for reading/playing too. At the very back is the order counter with the kitchen hidden behind it. Orders are delivered fairly quick and most everything is self-serve (ordering, drink refills, etc). The Aragorn is a very tasty sandwich (1/2 order is plenty) with the habanero jam (not overly hot as the name would suggest). The Balrog was also good with a bit more heat to it. Both are on the Italian bread which is both thick and hard so a little difficult to bite into. Croissant would probably have been better. Definitely recommend it but ask for the croissant if you like a softer bite into your sandwich.

You want one of the best sandwiches you've ever had? This is your place. Two of us Gals stopped in after our pedicures next door to bring home dinner for the guys. We got lucky cause it was $5 wine night, so we each got a glass of Cabernet while we waited for our sandwiches to go. Order at the counter. They give you a number and you can relax at a table, couch, chair, nice options. I took home a Treebeard for me and Gandalf for Husband. Other Gal got two Legolas for them. Later she texted me that they ate every bite cause they were "out of this world". We would agree with ours being fantastic. Mine was very rich and huge, so I saved half of it for lunch the next day and YUM to both meals. Love that they serve it with potato chips with ranch dressing to dip. It was a nice surprise touch that was deliciously appreciated.

The Arwen Biscuits and Cinnamon Roll.
Heather H.

Lovely local book, wine, beer, coffee spot. Multiple tables good for a couple of people up to 5 or 6. We went for for the first time for brunch and both got The Arwen Biscuit, a cinnamon roll to split and coffees. While the bacon on the biscuit was plentiful and perfectly cooked, the biscuit itself was a bit greasy. The cinnamon roll was tasty. The gal running the register didn't seem like she wanted to be there: when I asked for cold brew she said they don't have that (although online previous pictures showed it on the menu), so I explained this was my first time there, did she have any suggestions she said there are other coffees, so I chose an iced Americano with a special syrup (that was on the chalkboard on the wall) and she said they didnt have that, so again asked for a suggestion and 'any of the other ones are good' was the response. We then asked for a cinnamon roll (as we could see one still in the case) & she informed me she was out of those as well, however when I looked at the one in the case she turned and said 'oh wait, we might have 1 left'. The first line of customer service was a bit disappointing, and the time it took to get out coffees and food, but the woman working in the back (the cook maybe?) that brought out our food was very kind and welcoming. Worth checking out, as it is locally owned & quite unique, but I think if I try it again it might in the evening for a glass of wine instead.

Returned for the food and it was so good! At the bar we ordered the Aragorn half sandwich half salad and the Treebeard. I immediately wanted to return the next day it was too delicious. The portions were also larger than we anticipated. We paired the meal with lemon poppy seed bread and hot tea. The tea was just okay, but it may have been because it was shadowed by the incredible food. The pesto in the Treebeard sandwich would outshine anything else. The employees are welcoming and helpful. We chose to sit outside and they brought the food to us. Afterwards we returned the dishes to the bin above the trash can. Overall, we certainly enjoyed our meal here and look forward to returning!

The Hobbit w/ salad and the Arragon in a wrap
Marie S.

Nice little place if you want to read a book, play board games, eat or enjoy a drink. I went for lunch and sat at the tables outside. It was comfortable. We placed our order with a very nice cashier and the gave us a number so they could bring our food out when ready. I ordered the Hobbit which was a delicious salad and a wrap. The wrap flavor was good but the wrap was so Stale that it broke apart- I ended up taking it off the meat and throwing it out. Parking was packed (big lot just busy) Bathroom was clean.

I'd say this is 3.5-4 stars. The coffee and baked gods were great which is the 4 stars. The 3.5 is for the sandwiches. The London fog and affogato were very tasty. Make sure you grab the oatmeal cream pie. It's massive and so delicious. The merry pippin sandwich I didn't like that the sauce was cold and the sandwich was warmed up. They should have warmed the whole thing up not just the croissant. I loved the boromir sandwich though. The employees were incredibly nice and helpful.

Arwen breakfast sandwich and iced coffee
BreAna M.

This place has a nice cozy vibe! Plenty of mixed seating inside and a few tables outside. I stopped in for coffee and tried one of their biscuit breakfast sandwiches which was delicious! The person at the register was super nice and gave good recommendations. I'll have to come back to check out then beer selection.

I went here several times before realizing where my money was going. Unfortunately, this establishment is republican-owned and run. The books and events are very conservative-leaning. It's disappointing to say the least. Check out some of their book titles online before deciding to spend your money here. Know what you're funding.

Came here with hubby to kill some time before an appointment and I'm so glad he found it! Located in the Brennan Station off of Creedmoor, right near tropical smoothie and foot massage spa. Very relaxed atmosphere, plenty of tables, volume is that of a typical coffee shop IMO. But this place has coffee, non coffee, beers, wine, food, books, and WiFi! Great place to meet up with others or get some work in. I ordered a few plates and loved everyone. The Galadriel is like a caprese sandwich and I loved it, wish I could have toasted it but it was still delicious! The plates come with chips and ranch. The chai latte was also delicious and I would come back just for that. The employees are friendly and treat you great. Would love to come back to this spot!

I love Beow's! It's such a great atmosphere! It feels like a coffee shop (because it is)! But it has some amazing events throughout the month! And it turns into a low-key bar at night! Big fan of that! They also have a book store! The service is amazing, and they will even help you hack the system! (Maybe not hack) but definitely shared their hot water with me multiple times after I bought a cup of tea! The food is awesome! I'll have to update this review eventually with the sandwiches! But my favorite is the Galadriel which is a sandwich with mozzarella cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, pesto, and extra-virgin olive oil on Italian bread! Their breakfast is nice and simple! I had the Arwen which is a bacon egg and cheese biscuit! The biscuit was great but unfortunately the bacon was cold... I didn't complain about it because they were busy, but I am positive they would have made it right! I have had multiple lattes from Beow's and they never disappoint! In my picture today was a butter scotch latte! Which was delicious! Their beer is pretty good, and have a decent wine selection as well!! Overall, my rating of a 4/5 is solely because my biscuit was cold... however everything else about this place is a true vibe!

Italian style sub and a really nice fresh salad
Martin H.

Delightful staff. Nice menu with some great options. Wife and I both decided on the salad/sub combo which was a substantial meal for lunch. Lots of space and seating options. Very nice experience for a first time visit. Will return to try some other options. Oh, and the coffee was very good too!

I had the BLT (which if you've read my other reviews you'll know is my go-to everywhere) and it was perfection. Superb toasted bread, crispy bacon, a deliciously herby mayo, and juicy tomatoes. The side salad that came with it wasn't exciting, but it didn't need to be because the BLT was so good. Our waiter was gracious and attentive and he let us know about the 20% tip that was added to all our checks before we paid. Overall, a wholly pleasant dining experience! That said, I also got one of their giant cinnamon rolls to go. They're enormous (a good 7-8" across!) and looked amazing, but I thought it was overly dense, dry, and in places didn't have any flavor except dry, bland bread. In some spots near the middle, it felt a little doughy, perhaps slightly undercooked. It was also a lot more expensive than I had expected and I felt wasteful throwing part of it away, but it just wasn't worth eating all of it. My husband didn't like it at all and only had one bite. I'm still giving the place 5 stars because my sandwich was superb, but I'd personally skip the cinnamon rolls. Maybe I caught them on an off day? Other people seem to love them, but mine was not great.

The location is in a nice area, although the parking situation is a little inconvenient. You have…read moreto register your car through an app to receive two hours of free parking, which feels like an unnecessary hassle. The coffee itself was good, and under different circumstances, I would happily return. However, I was disappointed to pay $14 for two small coffees and then be asked to pay an additional credit card fee. I love supporting local businesses, but I don't feel a credit card fee is reasonable, especially at that price point. Another downside is the lack of seating for customers who simply want to stop in and enjoy a coffee. The setup feels more like a grab-and-go spot or a place where you sit down for a full meal with table service, rather than a traditional coffee shop where you can relax and enjoy your drink. Unfortunately, between the inconvenient parking, the credit card fee, and the lack of a comfortable place to sit, I probably won't be returning. That's disappointing because the coffee was genuinely good, and I wanted to love this local spot.

I even…read moreended up having a great conversation with a veteran who works in the kitchen cooking -- that was a special touch for me. The restaurant itself is very clean with a calm, Panera-Bread type vibe. The décor is nice, the bathrooms were clean, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. By the time I arrived, it was about an hour before closing, so they had already run out of chicken and turkey. Since I don't eat pork, that limited my food options a bit. But I ordered the Margarita Pizza, and let me tell you -- it was soft, flavorful, and really good. I would definitely order it again. Their menu is impressive with a lot of variety: sandwiches, wraps, salads, pizzas, juices, cocoa, and even items you can buy as gifts or treats for yourself. I would absolutely go back, just a little earlier next time so I can try more of their dishes.

The potatoes are like wet? They're not at all what you would expect for breakfast potatoes or home fries. Let's just say that after eating it ourselves I'm not surprised at all by the plates on the patio from previous diners with their potato basically untouched. The fruit on the breakfast plates is solid. The chicken bacon focaccia sandwich has tomato and isn't dry but also feels like it's missing something? It could use a handful of arugula to bring it together. The employee said "I would skip it" when asked about the jam and toast. He said their sandwiches and spinach quiche and croque madame are good though. We have tried the avocado toast at a different location and it can only be described as bizarre. It is like a southwestern twist on avocado toast and comes with beans and corn!?! If you enjoy avocado toast in the way that it is generally prepared then skip that too. Kids don't mind the food though! And the patio is dog friendly. Ambiance is noisy cuz it's not a great location and it's by busy roads and you may get the occasional schizophrenic pushing their shopping cart and screaming obscenities eating your breakfast with your family. But it's probably not as obvious dining indoors? Stick to the breads and to-go items. Don't bother with the hot meals.

Just wanted to take the time to clap for the staff here…read more I've only been here twice now. But both times the service was SO fast. I came here on a week day and it was packed but the kitchen seemed steady. Their service is very stream lined with pagers for food orders. There is a lot of seating but it also seems to be a place where a good chunk of people come to work. They have a library inside as well and the books at the time were all $3 ea. Today I came and it's a Sunday. As expected they were SLAMMED. Line to the door of people waiting and line to the door of people ordering. I still got my coffee in less than 5 min. People waiting on food were getting theirs in similar time. The staff was killing it! They have a large selection of baked goods (lots of laminated dough), fast casual breakfast & lunch, and a huge coffee menu. They also have gluten free options for food and about a dozen gf/df baked goods. They said they have separate prep space and changed gloves for gluten free food but it's a shared oven. I didn't have any issues though. To who ever is managing your kitchen and staff, you're doing a great job.
