This is a great coffee shop. Space for sitting down to do homework, chat with friends, etc. The food is just extremely underwhelming. The coffee is okay. I ordered a breakfast burrito and it was just under seasoned, potatoes were undercooked, and just bland. I expected it to be better since it seems to be a well run place. The workers seem nice though they never really smile and I used to not care since I work in the service industry as well. I get it you don't want to be there but it's nice sometimes especially when I smile back to you yk. Still gonna come in to do my homework though! read more

Blend Cafe - Sausage, Egg, & Cheese Breakfast Burrito with avocado and salsa - Acai Bowls Near Me - Jacksonville, North Carolina

This is hands down my favorite café in Jacksonville, NC. The vibes are immaculate, especially if you love art. The coffee and drinks are amazing as well! (Avocado toast and the burritos are good af.) The staff are super friendly too. If you like to sit outside, they have a great outdoor seating area with a water view! Photographers: this might be a great place to do a shoot! read more

This little waterfront cafe had so much to offer I went back twice in one weekend of visiting the area! The specialty coffees are great, but the real MVPs are the toasts! Beyond your standard avocado or ricotta toast, we tried the goat cheese with mixed berries and lemon toast that was phenomenal as well as the caprese both offered on sourdough. A few days later I went back to get some work done in this tranquil aesthetic setting, and tried the Cobb salad that was delicious as well. I also adored the fact that they promote local artisans gift items such as eucalyptus bundles and candles, as well as supporting local puppy rescue missions efforts in bringing dogs in for potential adoptions. read more

First time visiting Blend Café, and I was so impressed! The staff was super friendly, and the food was so good I actually took a few bites before I remembered to take a picture. I ordered the PB Totes and the Breakfast Burrito, and both were absolutely delicious. The inside is really cute and cozy, but next time I think I'll sit outside and enjoy the view of the New River. I'll definitely be coming back more often! read more

3 stars for appearance and quick service. I'm convinced this place is mainly for moms to come and let their kids run free, while they ignore them and caffeinate on mediocre coffee. Food is overpriced for what you receive as well... the avocado toast was meh. I really hate that I didn't love this place. read more

Employees are knowledgeable about the drinks on the menu. They make great recommendations based on the preferences I provided. There is inside and outside seating. I prefer inside seating because you can smell the coffee being made. read more

I Customer service here was extremely inappropriate toward my husband, and it made me feel beyond uncomfortable. I've never experienced anything like this at a business before. I won't be returning, and I definitely wouldn't recommend anyone else risk it either. Completely unprofessional. read more

Great coffee shop !! The staff was friendly and service was prompt. I would recommend a visit

Delicious breakfast options, hot/cold coffee selections, early riser pastry varieties, and a super comfortable, soothing environment. What's not to love? I've visited Blend a few times over the last several months and I am pleased to say it is a great early morning coffee house. It's nested in a very pleasant location near the water and maintains a very welcoming atmosphere. The staff are always smiling and friendly and can happily assist any first time visitors. The seating is generous and the cleanliness is quiet obvious. In addition to offering a well blended variety of morning options, Blend also hosts a nice mix of local vendor produced products such as soaps, jewelry, snack, art, etc. It truly is that "small town" favorite coffee house. In need of a recommendation? Order up a bacon breakfast burrito with a caramel late. Won't be disappointed! (Only knock I have to send is the high prices.) read more

I really enjoy this space. I wish the food was better tasting but for the vibe I'll find something to eat! I usually go for the peanut butter toast! It's always fun when the local dogs are in they are sweet and fun!! I have tried all the skinny lotus all are delicious I like the manifest the best! Love the picture spots lol. Yes the doors are painted and cute! They have some cute little candy and soda options. Service is usually pretty fantastic and cheery! read more

Blend cafe has amazing food and service. However, as someone who frequently dines in and works, I've had to get up and leave after a few minutes from the amount of parents allowing children to run around the restaurant and be loud and disruptive. I understand it's not a kid free world, but you would at least expect decency from grown adults that can properly parent their children in public spaces. I even had a child repeatedly yank on the bathroom door handle, screaming while I was inside, while the mother stood there and allowed it. My wife and I used to be frequent blend customers, but we honestly stopped going due to the atmosphere. It's a shame since it had become one of our favorite spots in town. read more

Such a cute & fun place to visit while in Jacksonville! I popped in here because I recently became a fan of fresh pressed juice, and don't have the supplies at home to make my own. Upon walking in I was happily greeted by two gentlemen working at the front counter. They were more than prepared to take my order for me as well as answer any questions I may have had. I ended up ordering the Revive juice, which was delicious unfortunately I cannot remember the exact combo of the fruits and veggies in it. I also ordered the "sweet tooth" toast which was toast topped with Nutella, strawberries, banana & dark chocolate chips. Both were AMAZING, and definitely filled a craving for something sweet. After taking my order I was able to go and sit outside and my order was brought out to me when it was completed. It was a nice day out so I opted to sit outside. The only reason I am rating 4 stars instead of 5 is because blend has a great deck with an amazing view of the river- however unfortunately a good amount of the furniture outside looked or appeared to be broken. I do however understand that it is technically winter so maybe they weren't expecting the weather to be so nice & put the good furniture away somewhere. However, everything else here is amazing and don't let that stop you from visiting- they're food & beverages are all amazing!! read more

Incredible Food, Ambiance, Vibe, and of course PEOPLE!! I come here every time I come into town to visit my mom. I probably spend more time here then anywhere else in Jacksonville. VIBE: Great place to remote work, have small meetings, groupthink sessions, or just hanging out with your friends and family FOOD: Simpleton put... delicious. Every time i come in i try to order something different and i absolutely love getting recommendations from the lovely baristas. They all have a favorite so check 'em out!! My Favs: Avocado Toast Peanut butter and jelly with bacon Peanut butter cup protein blend Sweet tooth Gold Digger Lotus Yep pretty much PEOPLE: The new business owner is AMAZING. She truly cares about her staff, their suggestions, and feedback. All of the baristas and team members all are very happy, they love providing recommendations. You can truly tell they all take pride in what they do and truly care about the experience. AMBIANCE: Very relaxing environment. There is always subtle music playing. All great jams! Overall great addition to Jacksonville. I live in Denver and this place reminds me of Denver so much. Oh yea, they love PETS! They get insulted if they know your pets name over yours!! Hahaha! It's just a pet vibe! I got it too! Don't forget to check out their outdoor seating! read more

Blend Cafe - Acai Bowls Near Me - Jacksonville, North Carolina

This is my ideal coffee shop: extensive options for good food and drink, live plants, aesthetic boho vibes, local wares for sale, and a nice partial water view from the patio. The PB totes is delicious, and the avocado toast is nice but nothing special. We tried three coffee drinks from hot to cold, fancy to not. All of them were tasty. This will be my stop going from Jacksonville to the coast. read more

Drinks are great! The view of the water is great too! But the employees could definitely have better attitudes, the young lady that helped us seemed annoyed at any questions we had and was very short with us, this was our first time here and we did not feel welcome at all :/ read more

Do yourself a favor and come here and order an acai bowl and coffee. Absolutely delish! 10 dollars for an acai bowl is amazing pricing. To anyone reading this ignore the negative reviews this place is awesome. 10/10 ignore that Kimi psycho with her bypolar reviews. The best acai bowl I've ever had. read more

Always a great experience here !! It's a nice little place for me to hang out with my daughter while she plays in the hang out area. I'm able to keep an eye on her and I can eat and relax. As a SAHM it's a great place to unwind for a bit while my daughter gets to play with the toys and coloring books available. The service is also amazing ! Everyone is so nice and welcoming that it makes you want to go back ! I'm really glad I found this place ! read more

ALL THE STARS TO BLEND CAFE! Y'all this place is seriously so amazing. The cafe is beautiful inside and out. Right on the water and they have cute paintings on their walls in the back of the cafe to take pictures at! The customer service was on point. I didn't get her name but she was so sweet and she definitely wasn't a stranger! I will 100% recommend this place to any and everyone. I can't say enough good things about it. We will definitely be back for more! read more

I love the quality of their food! So good and healthy! I knocked off a star because I don't like actually going to the location. They have a bunch of teenagers working in there who will spend 30-45 minutes talking to their friends and won't even say hi to actual paying guest let alone take our order. Which is crazy for the prices So I DoorDash it which is perfect :) read more

In my latest trip to Jacksonville I stopped by this adorable coffee shop and I had a great experience.

Really enjoyed this place. I got espresso which was great, a matcha latte which was also very good and left with an açaí bowl that is soooo delicious. Super clean and friendly staff. Interior design is also gorgeous. read more

I was in mood to try something refreshing and good. I've heard wonderful things about this business so figured I'd give it a try. You can really get addicted to this place I must say. The menu offers lots of juice, coffee brews and smoothies. They have muffins and bowls of fruits and waffles. The list goes on. Today was my first time and I got a pressed juice called the vision. It has carrots, pineapple, ginger , and orange. The juice is freshly pressed and was sooo good. Quenched my thirst and taste was amazing. Not what I expected. I also bought waffles with cream cheese and honey it's soo good and warm!!not real sweet just sweet enough! There's something for everyone. I can't wait to go try something else!! They are right on water off hwy17 and they have a really nice outside seating area with views of water.. nice zen moment! read more

I always stop by here from time to time and it never disappoints. Everything is always hand made and the taste is great. I highly recommend anything but hands down the best avocado toast I've ever had. The decor is great on the inside and spotless. Its also on the water inlet here and it has a great view from the outside patio. I'd definitely give this place a shot if you are in Jacksonville read more

Blend Cafe - Espresso protein blend, Soul Food bowl - Acai Bowls Near Me - Jacksonville, North Carolina

The location is so nice being on the water and they're dog friendly but the last three times I've come here they've been out of something. The have a board listing out refreshers but when I asked for one, the cashier said they don't sell them anymore. Why would you advertise something you don't sell? Then i asked what it's the passion fruit refresher and she said it's not just passion fruit, it's passion fruit and mango and kiwi but the board has commas separating all of those flavors so it seems like you can just pick the flavor you want but you can't. They're nice and the view and set-up is great but they just don't meet the mark with inventory/what they're actually selling. read more

What a hidden gem in J-ville! It was so nice to have a healthy, non chain option to go to. This place is very similar to Herbalife shakes but only they have less calories and are homemade rather then made from a corporate product. They have a few food items and the avocado toast looked really good. The shakes only have 120 calories and mine was really good. I ordered the cake pop one which was similar to birthday cake in Herbalife. The Set up inside is my type of place with a calming, hippie kind of vibe. There are plants everywhere! I also love that they have two outside seating areas and one is on the water. I will be back everytime I am in the Jacksonville area. Service was also great! read more

I came in for the first time ever yesterday because naturally, I was curious. The men behind the counter were nice but did not know much about the products as they stated they primarily work in the back. I did notice a table to my right with what appeared to be some off duty personnel and one of the women was darting ugly looks in my direction no doubt because I pointed out that everyone who works there should function as a team and that includes the knowledge of the business and the products they serve (the truth always hurts). I could not believe my eyes at some of their prices which I don't see how they can justify an energy drink for $7.95! Most energy drinks go for about 3 dollars. It was late and I had nothing at home so I just got a pumpkin pie iced latte and an order of their sweet tooth toast to go. It was fortunate that it was a Monday and I took advantage of their military discount which is only honored on Mondays. I'm not sure if the owners realize most people do not have a lot of money these days and this place is rather pricey. I know my visits will be far, few, and in between because of a certain hostile employee and their prices. read more

Blend Cafe - The sweet tooth toast - Acai Bowls Near Me - Jacksonville, North Carolina

I love this place for breakfast/brunch! Their açaí bowls are incredible and so is the cold brew and the matcha green tea. The customer service is always really good, the ladies at the counter genuinely seem to like their jobs. The inside of the restaurant is super cute, lots of tables and comfy chairs and there's even outside seating facing the water. I ordered a chicken wrap here last time I came and it was a little dry, even after I added honey mustard to it. However, that's the only item I've ever ordered here that was not great. They have smoothies and a bunch of other items here that are great! read more

The first reason I love blend is that it is just different for Jacksonville. We really need more creative local businesses like this one. The vibe inside is relaxing and the staff are friendly. I've tried the toasts and they are all delicious,however the smoothies are my favorite thing to come here and get. Overall it just feels like a really great place to be. Highly recommend for a place to go catch up with a friend, take your computer and get some writing done, or just a place to have a drink and take a deep breath. Love it. read more
