Wow was I not expecting this family friendly, worldly helpful coffee shop! Look up their website…read morefor more details, you don't need to read my review in which I may mistake exactly their goals and helpful charitable deeds. Overall, solid coffee place. Lots of parking and even more seating. The space itself was great. Don't even get me started on the play area for kids. My wife and I were super surprised when we walked in and there was a whole area for the kid to play! This made our journey here even more enjoyable as we got great coffee and our son got to play with the toy coffee cart. Perhaps it's an advanced training program for youths? They get kids onto playing with the coffee cart to see how good they are and then it's a direct feeder program into becoming a barista? Possibly. Anyways, cappuccino rating: 4/5! Really solid! Dirty chai tea latte: 5/5 for the wife! Play area for the kid: 10/5 he loved it and didn't want to leave! Overall, a great little coffee shop that serves the community beyond just coffee and is a great family place.

Difficult to give this place a fair review, it seems they are never open! Today, their website said…read morethey were open so I went to the drive thru around 9am. There were 2 other cars waiting as well, and we all drove off after a few minutes. While in the drive thru I was able to take a peek at the menu... $10.00 for a 16oz iced coffee is nuts!! I am not sure if they are in business anymore or not. #confused

We've been interested in trying this place since we saw the former Dunn Bros become vacant and…read moresuddenly occupied again! Stopped by the drive thru today for the first time and received excellent customer service while joining their rewards menu. I like their ice cream menu and will have to try something from that side of the menu next time. I tried the blended turtle, much better than any of the big coffee chains, rich in flavor, no under blended chunks of ice. Happy to see a place like this in the area, hoping they can advertise more and display their hours so more people know they are open. Will definitely be back frequently!

Walking in this place felt cozy. Like you would want to be here on a cold rainy fall day with a book! This place is very LGBTQ+ friendly. This place did have spider webs in the windows and heavy dust around the windows as well. That was disappointing. You can still be cozy and clean. The staff here left us very underwhelmed. They were having a conversation and finished the conversation before helping us. So we stood there feeling stupid and awkward while they wrapped up their social hour... while taking our order, the person kept her eyes locked on the computer screen. It just didn't feel friendly at all. I expect that kind of service from a Starbucks but not a local coffee shop. My boyfriend got a latte which tasted burnt. Neither of us were a fan. I can't remember the name of the drink but I got a white chocolate cherry I believe latte. It was pretty good. I did order my drink with oatmilk and it was an extra $1.50! Are you insane!? That's literally crazy. That is by far the most expensive swap to oatmilk I have seen! That alone almost pushed this to a one star review, but the drink did taste good. Overall, there are so many coffee shops In the area, I don't feel we will be back to this one.

You can substitute almond or oat milk for a small up-charge. The ambiance is always great here! Very open, bright and for Christmas, decorated super cute!! The service here was friendly and quick. I got the taro milk tea (oat milk) with black pearls. This drink is so creamy, and a hardly noticed a difference in the taste! The vanilla flavor was delicious! This is still a 5 star place for me! Definitely worth a stop! There is also a Leeann Chin next door if you are looking for a meal as well!

The first thing that hits you is the delicious aroma of buttery goodness and then your wondering eyes are greeted by delicacies in a variety of colors and shapes within glass cases.

My son was really hoping to see more of that and maybe even staff dressed as the characters. I was however impressed with the service, tea and treat offerings, gift shop, walk in coffee shop, cleanliness and the fact that tip was already included. I highly recommend a visit. We'll be back in the summer to try the coffee shop and hopefully sit at their outside patio which has a lovely landscaping.

We went to Just Love at about 11:45 on a Thursday morning. It was not very crowded, which I had…read moreexpected. It is in a little strip mall and has a drive-through. There is plenty of parking in the mall's lot. There is handicap parking, but it is in front of the next store down. There are a couple of picnic tables outside, as well as a couple tables. The tables are pretty close to the drive-through so if that will annoy you, avoid them. Inside is bright and cheerful, good space with plenty of tables for a crowd. A few of the tables seemed to be a little closer to each other than they needed to be, but they were fine. When we first decided to go here, we thought it was a small, independent store, but it is a franchise. Not a big deal, but something to keep in mind. There are two all gender bathrooms, cute art, and merch that includes bags of their coffee. My husband had the breakfast burrito and gave it a 7 out of 10. Apparently on the website it said it came with cream cheese, but that is an error because it did come with sour cream. He said it was good, not super fancy. It was cooked in a waffle iron so it was nice and hot. In fact I think everything here is cooked in a waffle iron. He also had a mocha which was very good and chocolatey. I had Nana's cinnamon rolls (also cooked in a waffle iron. They come either with two or with four. They are fairly small so I went with four, which ended up being about one more than I could eat.. They were good. There was a good amount of cinnamon, which is important to me, and the frosting was good. They were sweet, but not overly so. They were not very gooey, but they were good so that didn't matter. I had the "Cha Cha Latte". Which was very good. We will be back.

We opted for two of their signature drinks. They were good, a bit in the sweet side. They seem known for their mini cinnamon rolls which looked good but also very gooey and likely very sweet as well. They did have other breakfast options that looked good. It seemed it was more than a coffee shop but not quite a full meal spot if that makes sense. It's in a strip mall so plenty of parking and they recently put in a small patio which will be good come warmer weather. If I lived closer or am in the area I'd probably try again but likely won't go out of my way for a repeat visit.

I truly did adore that!! There is also a fair amount of seating here! The service was quick and friendly. It was kind of hard to understand the woman who took our order... she was SO sweet but we definitely had a longer time ordering because we were not understanding one another. The coffee was just... ok. Mine tasted very heavy of chocolate, which was not in the name. The ube also had a strange taste. I love ube, so I'm not sure if they are adding something? My boyfriend got a latte and it was very sweet. Not at all what he was expecting. They have plenty of other drinks, so please don't let this review deter you! This go for us just wasn't it...

We all tried all of the drinks together. Vietnamese coffee: 4/5 Definitely too sweet, good classic rich flavor Brown sugar boba: 3/5 Okay, not something I would usually order anyways but it was too milky yet still very sweet. Happy Tea: 2.5/5 The flavor was good but so sweet that I'm glad I don't get a fruit drink. It was way too much. (To clarify, I like sweet things; it just tasted like I was drinking fruit syrup) The service was great; we had a lot of questions concerning what to get and if there are alternative milks and despite a slight language barrier, they were patient, kind, and incredibly helpful! The ambiance was so cute! Definitely a little overstimulating for some but I absolutely loved the color and hanging decorations everywhere. Overall, I probably would get a viet coffee from here if I was on a pinch and really didn't want to make it at home myself but the drinks are a little too sweet for me. They also do not have alternative milk (which my friend needed for her drink so she couldn't get anything). I would still recommend trying it to someone because it's a small business and the sweetness might be perfect for you!
