A very cute cafe right in downtown Mt. Pleasant. We came in for lunch. I really enjoyed my balsamic wrap and my husband liked his Thai chicken wrap. We got to sit outside on the patio since it was a really nice day. It's connected to the bakery so you could get desserts, if you wanted. We will definitely be back! read more

After having the best dining experience at 73 and Main, we ventured across the street for a latte. Katelyn took the best care of us. She was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable of the menu. We both ordered raspberry/white chocolate lattes and they were so good! Not too sweet and full of flavor. Will definitely come back and hang out on their cozy couch! read more

No idea why this place isn't rated higher. We stopped in on a whim on our way home from visiting a friend's farm. I know we didn't look or smell very good but we were treated with kindness and respect. We had low expectations based on the current rating but they blew us away! When I mentioned it was our first time in, the barista was enthusiastic with her suggestions and thoughtful in asking our preferences and allergies first. My latte was DELICIOUS. It's hotter than the devil today so, I got it iced (they have the "good ice" small and crunchy!!!) Decor was cute. We stepped next door to the bakery and my daughter got an ice cream. That lady was super sweet as well! All around great experience. This place isn't "on our way" to anywhere but we will certainly be back. I was so impressed that I felt the need to write a review in hopes of it boosting their ratings so others can enjoy it too! read more

Café Lentz is a European style café in downtown Mt. Pleasant, NC serving craft coffee, paninis, smoothies, and pastries, according to their Facebook page. All I know, is little Mt Pleasant has stepped up their game from a snoozy, nearly invisible hamlet to a stop worth making. Apparently, Café Lentz is associated with 73 & Main (across the street), and possibly the bakery next door (but it was closed when we visited). The offerings are typical of most large cities (hand crafted coffees, sandwiches, etc.) which may make some of the locals frustrated that a basic coffee and BEC biscuit is not available (the Hardee's is still up the road). I like that. As of this writing they have been open about six months. I think they still have some wrinkles that need ironing: the counter area is contentious with the sole bathroom, as well as the condiments counter and ordering station, all competing for the same space. Claustrophobic. The coffee was delicious, but I think the "small" size is one click above a communion cup serving--I'll call it petite. Step up to the larger sizes for a better value. My first visit to Mt Pleasant was 25 years ago and it was all one could do to find a pizza shop. Much has changed and is getting better. Some local hangouts remain (e.g. What-A-Burger #13--yeah!), but Café Lentz is a forward move that I say, "give 'em a whirl." Support the nouveau investors willing to spend some cash in their pockets. read more

We live out near the Cabarrus Events Arena and there's not a ton of food options around us, especially for breakfast. That's why, I'm excited everytime something else pops up in Mount Pleasant and this spot... well, I'm not sure why I waited so long to go! This morning I stopped in around 8:15am, there were several customers carrying out as I was walking in, but not overly busy (mind you it's a work day). I ordered the Franklin Street breakfast sandwich, a dark chocolate strawberry latte (seasonal) and a blueberry danish. The latte blew my little tastebuds' minds. It tastes just like a dark chocolate covered strawberry. Not too sweet given it's dark chocolate, but soooo delicious and festive in advance of Valentine's Day. Will definitely be back to try their other seasonal flavors! The breakfast sandwich was also so yummy! The biscuit's just the right size, not too large, to balance the egg, bacon and cheddar and oh so savory. Haven't tried the danish yet, but I'm sure it'll be good too and I'm already convinced I'll become a regular! TL;DR: Highly recommend if you're in the area. Try it all and you won't be disappointed! read more

Coffee and attitudes from staff are hit or miss. Currently have been waiting for 30 minutes for one cup of coffee..... dirty tables. It's not that busy. Other people are asking for refunds. Don't recommend. We've had one good experience here out of 6 visits. read more

The food is amazing and the staff is extremely helpful and kind! Love coming there to just read a book and enjoy the food. read more

While I am giving Cafe Lentz 3 stars its not for negative reasons. I just was not overwhelmed to give it more than 3 stars. Was the service good? YES. One very hard working young lady was doing it ALL. Was the place nice? YES. Quaint. Clean. Outdoor seating with comfortable furniture. Was the food good? YES. But here is were I cannot give those two extra stars. The food was good, but for $9 I got a turkey panini and the pasta salad. It was pretty basic. Nothing over the top. And it was light on the amount of meat on it. And the pasta salad...well there was maybe two fork fulls. It came in a tiny...TINY...container. I hate I didn't take a picture but we all were giggling at the fact there was so little food for the price we forgot to take one. And like I said at the beginning, everything is nice, clean, friendly but for what we ordered, the food was very overpriced. read more

The place is super cute with such a good vibe but the food was terrible. I got a pimento cheese sandwich and broccoli cheddar soup. My husband got the chicken parm sandwich. The pimento cheese was incredibly salty and soup was cold. The parm sandwich looked amazing but was cold and salty as well. This was our first visit and will sadly be our last. It definitely was not worth $42 for lunch. read more

Ordered breakfast for myself and husband, simple bacon, egg and cheese, no aioli on either. Two parties came in after us and ordered - were served first. It was clear that they forgot our order and when we reminded them they copped an attitude - snapping at my husband with a nasty, give us a minute. Later brought out luke warm sandwiches that had aioli. Never again with this place. read more

This adorable cafe has super sweet staff and delicious food. I will definitely be stopping here again when I'm in town. read more

Café Lentz - Sausage Egg & Cheese biscuit. - Cafes Near Me - Mount Pleasant, North Carolina

Really upset how management handles sick employees. I was in last Sunday for quick meet up. Employee behind the counter and also the barista was very very sick. Yes they were wearing a mask but coughing a lot. I have been sick since Tuesday. Same whooping cough as this employee. This was the only employee on staff and unfortunately was making coffee and food. If your employees are sick and you have no one to come in suck it up and work the shift yourself or close the cafe. As a business owner YOU are responsible, this is on so many levels of inappropriate. I hope the employee has recovered and I am in no way upset with them. Shame on you Lentz Cafe owner and the disrespect you have for our community. read more

I have been a regular customer for about a year now. I can honestly say this is one of the best places to enjoy a meal in a very chill environment. The outdoor covered patio was my first attraction as they are dog friendly. However, the customer service is what continues to bring me back. The food is also very good. I've never been disappointed. Everything is made to order and they will bring it to you on the patio so You don't have to leave your pup unattended. This is a big deal for those who try to find a place that appreciates and allows dogs on the property. Fresh brewed beer from Old Well brewery across the street makes this place even more inviting. About as close to perfect as you can find anywhere in the region! read more

Delightfully furnished and decorated European-style cafe with a mix of both contemporary and traditional décor. The brevé latté I ordered was delicious and made from locally roasted beans. The lemon bar pastry was also very tasty. Nice outdoor patio as well. So, take a break from the big chain paper cup coffeehouse and sit down for a few minutes in this lovely cafe off the beaten path and enjoy a freshly ground, expertly prepared coffee creation in an actual ceramic mug! Please support this local café! We need more places like this! read more

I recently ordered a cake and cupcakes for my husband's birthday from The Bakery at Mount Pleasant. The cake and cupcakes were delicious. We ordered a lemon cake and chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter icing. Karen was great! We will definitely order here again and recommend to friends. read more

Worst ever! They don't require folks to wear mask when entering establishment! Breakfast sandwiches were made incorrectly and terrible. When asked how was it we said that we did not like one of the sandwiches the response was "others like it, that's too bad' and walked away. Others sitting outside overheard and were shocked by the attitude! I'm local to this sweet town but will not ever return to this establishment - sorry Mt Pleasant but this place won't make it with terrible food and what's worse terrible service and attitude!!! read more

We just visited Cafe Lentz for a family breakfast treat. There were several ladies working, yet no one greeted us or asked if we needing anything. Their "bakery" selection was pitiful. Choices were cinnamon rolls, bars, brownies, or cookies....not what I would consider treats to go with coffee for breakfast. The cinnamon roll was served cold in a bag and I had to request it to be heated. We ended up spending over $20 for 1 cinnamon roll (that was hardly edible), 1 cookie, 2 juices, and a milk we didn't actually order. We will definitely not return and do not recommend for breakfast time. read more
