Caramel marshmallow latte with caramel sauce and matcha latte.

The quiche is amazing and so are most of the pastries. The coffee however, is really bad. They skimp heavily on any added flavors like they did with the matcha. Previously, I got a lotus drink and it tasted like sparkling water with a tiny hint of flavor. Don't come here if you're looking for good coffee.

If you enjoy a more cozy coffee atmosphere, between friends might be for you. It can get a bit noisy but it's the sound of community and friendship. Their waffles are great and the prices are even better. Lots of drinks to choose from, from frappes to espresso, so tea. Pretty sure all the food items are made to order so you could be waiting a bit but the staff will bring your order over to you. It is a nice change from your chain coffee shops.

This is a great coffee shop. The shop has a very large selection of tea and coffee, as well as many desserts and breakfast sandwiches. The staff was extremely courteous and helpful, my tea and breakfast sandwich was very good.

The Florence Latte (8oz) with coconut milk. And view of the interior.

Friendliness of Staff 5/5 Speed of Service 5/5 Flavor of Product 5/5 Energy and Experience 5/5 Like most of you, I've been around the block when it comes to coffee shops. They all do essentially the same thing, right? They're all kinda processed, based on mermaid-brand transactional consumption, a sort of mindless, sterile, soulless force of addiction. So please join me in reimagining my delight when we walked into Between Friends at 930am on a Saturday morning to a bustling, humming community of full tables of chatter, kids dancing around their cinnamon buns, staff calling out orders in rapid pace, and even then the lovely human at the register patiently and heartily walking me and my companion through non-dairy options. My friend and I sat for...I don't know, an hour (what is time?!) enjoying our coffees and the energy inside. I had the Florence, a lavender and coconut latte that I requested made with coconut milk, and it was perfect. I'm always hesitant to order flavored coffees because (a) I generally prefer my coffee black, which may or may not hinge on (b) most flavored lattes are too flavored and overly-syrups and unbalanced and are hard to get through the whole cup. WELL. Please let me tell you about this lovely, nuanced, artful latte I had and how it was very possibly the best flavored coffee I've had. Obviously, YMMV depending on your personal preferences, but Between Friends is my new standing date location and if I lived closer would be a daily/weekly stop. Thank you Between Friends team for making such a delightful oasis in central Georgia!

Langston Hughes Latte - peanut butter and chocolate latte

My partner loved the Harper Lee Latte and gets it every time we go. I love the aesthetic of this place and there's so many drink options and choices that it could be a bit overwhelming. I haven't yet found a drink that I like quite as much as my partner has with his; but most of the drinks I've had are decent. The employees are super kind and helpful with the customization, and can tell whenever I visit that lots of locals visit this place for studying, eating lunch, and just hanging out. Looking forward to trying more drinks!

Visiting this part of Georgia with some friends, and we were brought here because it's "the best in the area"! Super cute literature-inspired cafe with tables that are laminated with vintage book pages from classics like Alice in Wonderland and Winnie the Pooh. The menu is extensive, most named after famous writers. Incredibly delicious! Also love that they have a little library that you can borrow from. Thanks for the experience!

Chicken sandwich.
Katrina A.

This is not a bad coffee shop when it comes to their drinks. But I ordered the chicken sandwich & got a patty that looked like it came from a kids meal, no sauce, nothing. Then I asked the employee if I could switch it out because I didn't realize it was like this & she told me I have to order a different sandwich. Then I asked for cheese & egg so I could salvage this sandwich & I had to pay for that. Definitely better with coffee than their food.

The cute books for sale
Michelle W.

Came here with basically nobody in the shop and ordered a Cuba:Hemingway. Despite me being the only one who ordered, it took 15 minutes to get my simple latte. However, the store was cute and I liked the books for sale--that was the best part of the experience. The coffee was way too sweet, sickingly sweet, even though I requested it to be half sweet. I couldn't taste the espresso at all, and I thought I was drinking straight up sugar. It was pretty gross. I actually got sick from the coffee and won't be back here again.

Smores French toast

Sweet place. I got Smores French toast and an iced coffee. The French toast was pretty good. Definitely a quiet place to sit and write or read!

If you are looking for a true artisan coffee, this isn't the place. Made with a machine like Starbucks. Environment is very cute and comfy.

I love coming here for an amazing breakfast/brunch. Today was no different and expected the same…read moreamazing food we've always been served. Today though, Dexter, you really knocked it out of the park. With your personalized greeting, your unapologetically you flare, you made us feel like we were at YOUR establishment and getting a specialized meal just for us from you. Dexter you put a smile on everyone's faces and just lit up the room. Thank you!

We arrived on today (Saturday) at 11:30am to meet some friends for brunch. The party of 8 was told…read morethat the wait was 45 minutes. Expecting a wait at what appeared to be a very busy local spot, we spent the time stretching our legs after the drive in, catching up and taking pictures, so the wait was no biggie. Finally, we were ushered to our table. The servicer had tables all over the restaurant and seemed like she was run ragged. After waiting so long outside, I believe that the delay to be served our drinks was far too long. No one ordered a specialty drink, unless you consider my bestie's bottled grapefruit juice that was served after the otherdrinks for some odd reason "specialty". My son's kids meal, 2 scrawny chicken tenders and a very small mixed fruit arrived and he had devoured it before anyone else's food arrived, and he was asking fir the rest. Of note, there was also another child in our party. She was served with the adults. Once the rest of our meals arrived to our table, we were in a much less crowded restaurant, and pretty hungry. The portions were quite large, and everyone's meal arrived as ordered. We left satisfied, but we just could not understand the delays once we were seated! I wasn't blown away by the experience overall, but I would call in an order or two of those gouda grits for pickup if I lived nearby.

There are 100 beer taps with a huge variety, one of which was a really tasty IPA. We were taken care of by the two Taylor's, one male, one female, but both were great with which to deal with. Strongly recommend this restaurant.

Definitely thought it was going to have a lot more corn though. And there was also black beans in it. What would make it a 10: more corn, no beans. Santa Fe eggrolls 8/10 "Three crispy egg rolls stuffed with seasoned chicken, sweet corn, melted cheeses, and peppers. Served with our smoky chipotle ranch for dipping." - Good flavor. One of the egg rolls was completely empty. Also nowhere in this description does it say black beans but there was black beans in them- won't order again because of this. What would make it a 10: no beans, and make sure they all have something inside. Grown-Up Dilla 7/10 "A golden grilled flour tortilla stuffed with a blend of jack and cheddar cheeses, fire-roasted jalapeños, roasted corn medley, and tender grilled chicken. Served with your choice of dipping sauce." - got the jalapeños on the side. Lots of cheese. Little chicken. Definitely could have been grilled a little crispier. And again- black beans- gross!! Dipping sauce we chose was the Chipotle ranch- yum, and a none-to-mild spice level! What would make it a 10: more chicken, no beans. Super upset that everything I ordered had black beans in it and NOWHERE in the menu descriptions said that there was black beans in ANYTHING. Had they included it on the menu and I had known each of these dishes had beans- I would have never ordered any of this food and would have picked other menu items without beans in them.

For cocktails, my husband ordered the Mango Sunshine & I ordered the Cucumber Mojito. Both were refreshing & tasted good overall, but did seem quite weak. For dinner, my husband ordered the braised short rib from the Specials menu & I ordered the lamb chops, one of my absolute favorite foods. I ordered the lamb chops medium rare & they were quite overdone, with the last one I tried to eat being well done. The brussels sprouts on the other hand were quite underdone, and were solid to the point that I couldn't even stick my fork through them. I asked for asparagus as a replacement, which ended up being underdone as well. My husband felt his mashed potatoes were too salty & that his broccoli was cooked into mush, but had no issues with the short rib. On a positive note, the staff was very friendly, & the complimentary biscuits were absolutely delicious. Overall, for the high prices they charge at this establishment, it is absolutely not worth it. I do not think we will be returning.
