I was excited to buy my mother in law some loose tea. After looking up the best places to go in…read moreLakeland we found My Cottage Garden. The establishment looked cute from the outside but as we got closer we noticed a sign in the front telling us to call and someone would come out and take or order. Well, I've never bought loose trees and felt this stupid have been purchase using multiple senses (sight snd smell). But here we are. I didn't have a back up plan so I called the number. The lady was great with questions about what my mother in law liked, but honestly i really didn't know. I did pick two teas for her gift. Crossing my fingers she likes it. Im hoping future customers can have the full experience.

If you're someone who loves being surrounded by books, this place is such a cozy escape. The building is absolutely beautiful, with so much character. I love all of the historic details.. the old windows, stained glass accents, and charming architecture make it a place you want to linger in for a while. The coffee isn't the best I've ever had, but it's still a solid option. I come here less for the coffee itself and more for the experience of slowing down, reading a book, or simply enjoying the atmosphere. If you're looking for a peaceful, cozy bookstore café with tons of charm, Pressed Books is well worth a visit.

The food is what really stands out. They have such unique flavor combinations that you don't find at your average coffee shop. I ordered the jalapeño popper sausage biscuit, and it was incredible. The sauce and pickled red onions took it to the next level and made every bite so flavorful. The coffee is solid, and the café is in a great downtown location that's perfect for starting your morning or taking a break while exploring the area. If you're looking for a one-stop shop for both breakfast and coffee, look no further. We absolutely love this place and will keep coming back whenever we're in town.

I have to find one like it in my area. Luckily, it's also a coffee shop so I usually get a coffee as well. If you've never been here, they're located in downtown Lakeland. Now on this particular visit wasn't too busy and I was able to order and get everything right away. The lady working the front was so sweet when I told her how much I love the carrot cake she got me a fresh slice of a new cake and it was so good!! The carrot cake by itself would be perfect but velvety cream cheese icing on top really brings it together. No on this visit I did get a nice latte as well. That was a little dark when it first came out, and she could tell by the look on my face that something wasn't right and she fixed it right away lol. I wish Mitchells was closer but it's definitely worth the drive.

Went here to get my wife a coffee after my doctors appointment. She wanted some fancy long named…read morecoffee that is beyond me, but is actually on the menu as is with just 1 addition. She wanted salted caramel cold foam added. I read everything from a text she sent. After ordering hers, I ordered my simple , what I always get, grande hot *white* mocha. The barista over the intercom repeated my order correctly too, which left me puzzled. Nothing was shown on the screen but with her reading everything back correctly I figured that's fine. Pulled up to the window and just collected the drinks and was on my way. Once I got on the highway I tried my drink and it was a regular mocha, which is not what I wanted. This prompted me to look at my wife's and there was no cold foam added. I was already on the highway so going back wasn't an option. I was confused as she repeated back the correct order to me but somehow the order got lost in translation? Not sure. To add insult to injury, my regular gross mocha cup collapsed in when I picked it up the second time. This led to the lid popping off, losing grip of the cup because it collapsed in, and spilled hot all over me and my car. I ended up letting Starbucks on fb know about the encounter and they refunded everything which was nice. I wasn't blaming the cup incident on them, but it was just an unfortunate misfortune after being wrong anyways.
