Waterbean is spacious, they have indoor seating as well as covered outdoor seating. I was waited on immediately and asked the barista for his suggestion. He suggested the Bro-stachio Latte (brown sugar & pistachio). I received it within minutes. It was absolutely delicious. Every sip made me happy. I was just getting a cup to go, but it's an awesome place to stay for a while. The ambiance is perfect.

For my money, the best Hot Mocha is at any Caribou Coffee! They actually steam chocolate morsels…read more(those are better than chips, FYI) and add to the milk and the coffee and finally, in the cup. It's so creamy and luscious! They also put a chocolate covered roasted espresso bean (CCREB) on the little indention on the lid in case you need MORE coffee and chocolate! (and who doesn't). This location seemed new. It had a front entrance but at this location, most people enter in the rear. That's where the parking lot is located. The rear entrance is smaller and harder to see as it's a narrow corridor to get in. It gets lost with the other entrances and stairs. Once inside, it's easy to walk to the front to order or pick up your mobile order. They have some comfy looking seating and there were a bunch of others working and meeting there. All I get at this chain is hot mochas, so I can't comment on anything else. But I'd imagine the other stuff is good.

They had plenty of drink and food choices. I got the Iced Honey Lavender Latte and it was soooo good! The sweetness and the lavender flavor was definitely just the right amount and meshed well together. The coffee flavor was a bit underwhelming, but I would recommend getting this drink if you are a Lavender person. I will be coming back before my vacation ends in North Carolina!

They have a variety of coffee and teas to choose from, as well as macarons! I stopped for coffee, but will definitely be back to try some macarons! The service was great and quick.

Some businesses you walk into and they act like they're annoyed to see you. I asked her for recommendations and she recommended the eggnog latte. It was warm, sweet and delicious. But back to Kat. This lady is so friendly. She wanted to make sure that my drink was made right, she offered to add more syrup. She offered me a topper. She offered me water. So accommodating! 10 out of 10. She told me she has aspirations to own her own coffee shop one day. Initially, I thought she was the owner. Here's to you Kat! I know one day you will accomplish that goal. This is also a chill spot to hang out in and maybe get some work done. I may check it out on another day when I have a break between clients. I definitely will be returning to the spot.

My Post-Daycare Coffee Ritual…read more Summit Coffee has become my go-to spot for a morning coffee after I drop my son off at daycare. The vibe is friendly, relaxed, and everyone behind the bar has been consistently great. One moment really sold me on this place: I accidentally placed a to-go order to the wrong Summit location. Totally my fault. They didn't make it a thing at all--just made my drink on the spot and didn't charge me again. That kind of customer service sticks with you. My usual is a decaf Americano. Simple order, but they nail it every time. You still get that nice richness and "oiliness" you want from good coffee, and you can tell they're using fresh beans. They also recently added a breakfast sandwich that is ridiculously good. Definitely on the decadent side--not an everyday thing--but perfect to split with someone if you're watching calories, or to fully lean into if you're in cheat-meal mode. Overall, it's turned into part of my morning routine, and I'm really glad it's in the neighborhood.

But it's also at the end of the strip of shops and near the movie theater, which makes me come to a realization... You get five tiny donuts for $5 (and then they ask for tip on screen and since service was good I obliged) so you could sneak five tiny donuts into the movies and save money on movie snacks and popcorn but the donuts would be gone very quickly and popcorn lasts longer. You probably want the popcorn. Another thing about these donuts is that they are owned by the same guy that owns them at the state fair--not the donuts themselves but the donut booths. And they do taste like state fair donuts. If you're at the state fair, they're sensational. If you're at Birkdale Village, they're small sugary donuts in a really nice-looking trailer. The donuts might also be nostalgic for you as they were for me. My friend in junior high landed a date he had a crush on for two years. The date was at the state fair. I know for a fact they went on the Ferris Wheel and when it stopped at the top, the girl panicked and demanded they rotated the wheel so she could get off the freaking thing. This wish was granted, and that friend ditched her forever. It's also possible that he ate a donut.

They came out nice and warm. My favorite was the cinnamon sugar one. I wasn't a fan of the apple cider because it had a fake apple taste. The chocolate one was too bitter I think because they dusted it in cocoa powder. Overall, the donuts were nothing special and they were very overpriced. For tiny bite sized donuts they were 6 for $5. I probably wouldn't get them again.
