As you can see, very thin layer of avocado, and the toast is soggy
Tom R.

Wife and I decided to stop by on our way home from an errand. Starting off, parking was tough to find since it's right by UNCG on a busy street. However, the street was a cute little area, especially for a college part of town. If I was a college student or lived close by and could walk here, I'd consider it if it wasn't for the food and coffee. Wife's espresso drink was way too strong, ingredient proportions were off and the espresso was very bitter and acidic. My matcha tea latte had too much foam, almost half of my mug. Avocado toast was probably the worst I've had in a long time. It was toasted bread yet came out a bit soggy with a few slices of tomatoes on top. And if you look closely, the avocado layer is very minimal. I would describe the amount of avocado as a very thin layer of butter you'd put on toast. And there was no flavor to it, whether because it wasn't seasoned at all, there wasn't enough of it to taste, or most likely both. Only reason it doesn't get a 1 star is for the friendly service and staff. We won't be coming back again.

It's time for second coffee and we landed here finding street parking in front. A friendly barista was able to prepare two great lattes and we sat here for a bit to wait out some of the rain. It's a comfy coffee shop with lots of seating and different pastry options through we'd already had breakfast this morning. [Review 19956 overall - 3443 in North Carolina - 930 of 2023.]

Ordered a Latte and a scone - I've never seen a scone that made a bag look like it was full of donuts.....it was not edible. Latte was blah - won't be coming back and can't recommend. In hindsight, I should have gone to Tates across the street

Breakfast Burrito
Isabelle B.

Starting off strong with the simple decor, the perfect feeling and look for a cafe. Not over decorated but hints at what it's known for. The cutest part was the coffee bean bags on the wall. Now the drinks, the berry in love had a perfect balance of mocha and strawberry, it was as if I was enjoying a chocolate dipped strawberry. I also thought the name was very creative. I went back and ordered a strawberry refresher, which lived up to the name refresher. The strawberry was there but not overly sweet and really was refreshing. The breakfast burrito could've been a perfect score for me if the potatoes were a little more cooked through, they just were too hard for a burrito. And the service was amazing!! My barista was fast and even left a cute message on my cup!! And the one who gave me my food was sweet and made sure I had everything! Will definitely be coming back!!

Avocado toast

First time here. Ordered avocado toast and water. The person at the register had to explicitly tell the person next to her how to make it and what ingredients go in it- even pulling up the menu for them and wrote out the ingredients on a napkin. So it was no surprise that when it was given to me, it was the saddest toast I've ever had - so soggy I couldn't eat it. Won't come here again.

Everything Bagel with Cream Cheese

Arrived at the location close to brunch time, barely busy with no one in line. Ordered two bagels to go with cream cheese and one with bacon and was disappointed. Was given a tiny block of cream cheese on the side, not on the bagel. The bagel itself was not toasted well, as it was hard to chew at some times, especially with barely any cream cheese. No utensil was given to apply the cream cheese as well. Bacon was also slightly undercooked, was expecting a bit of a crunchiness on it. It was also a bit on the saltier side. The environment featured a nice and cozy setting but the ambiance was a bit too loud for a coffee shop.

Update/ response to management comment below: I'll address my bagel first. The bagel she gave me didn't come from the basket where the other bagels were she grabbed it off the counter from another small pile (2-3 bagels that were together) Next point- I asked for no capers or onions. I Never mentioned dill which is something that's listed on the ingredients to come on it.. they put one little piece. It's sad.. 3rd point. I have about 30 photos of bagels from about 3-4 months ago when I use to come in all the time!! They are FULL of salmon and exactly what I expect when I order. I have been there more times than I can count.. I can show you what they use to look like and it's nothing like it that sad bagel I was served. Additionally, I ENDED UP PAYING $14 FOR THE BAGEL THAT I SHOULD HAVE BEEN GIVEN IN THE FIRST PLACE!! So.. in the past I've had the best device here. HOWEVER, they have new kitchen staff.. and I'm just disappointed. My bagel tasted stale and I paid $9 for a lox bagel with 2 tiny slivers of salmon.. they didn't even put any dill on it.. I mean COME ON!! When I asked if I could pay for an additional few pieces they charged me $4 for 2 more pieces. The manager at the counter was rude and blamed the now tiny portion on the owner.. Honestly save your time and money go to Brueggers bagels.. This is my first time back here in 3-4 months and I'm sad to say it declined so much.. UPDATE: While I was there with a friend still eating the manager (that was rude) proceeded to get a call from what I assume is the owner and I could hear her VERY loudly (I was on the other side of the restaurant) talking about me and the review I left. It was unprofessional and I won't be returning. Save your time and money and go to another coffee shop!!!

Red pepper Gouda soup
Beverley A.

I am fan! I must admit, the gelato drew my attention, but it is certainly not what this place should be reviewed on. Gelato- Probably need a better manner of storage. The top layer had a textured film on it and a little too sweet. I tasted the pumpkin and tiramisu flavours. Coffee: The coffee is perfect! There was no bitter after taste. Usually some coffee places you taste the bitterness after the first taste or after it has been left out for a while. I did not experience this. Coffee was brilliant Soup: Cold day- I needed a cup of soup. I was very impressed with the red pepper gouda soup. (The name did not sound appealing initially.) The soup has a beautiful roasted red pepper taste to it, and a smokey gouda flavor to it. I really enjoyed it! I will be stopping by there for seconds this week! Prices are decent.

They had counter service this morning, where you order at the counter. Since it was my first visit, the young man could probably tell I was new--he greeted me right away and explained how everything worked. The space was clean, and it faces the rising sun. I'd already picked out the perfect seat to let that morning sunshine shine right in. The lemon ricotta pancakes had been calling my name for a while. The young woman at the counter let me know they're soft because of the ricotta. I appreciated the heads-up, since the texture is different from a regular pancake and someone might otherwise think they weren't fully cooked. They were absolutely out-of-this-world amazing! I ordered the three pancakes and only afterward noticed that you can order them individually. Three was definitely too many for me--I made it through two and was stuffed, so I left one lonely pancake behind. I also ordered a side of bacon to add some protein. They also have the cutest little French market inside, with a whole freezer full of items you can take home and bake yourself. And they just introduced some new menu items today, which will be around for the next couple of months: pumpkin chocolate chip pancakes, braised short ribs, beignets, and a savory Dutch baby. If you're ever downtown, stop by and give this place a try! Ciao for now!

Food: 6/5. Excellent and fulfilling. I'll gladly recommend this restaurant…read more Service: 5/5 - we had to wait a bit but it was worth it. Ambiance: 5/5.

We hadn't had coffee this way since our Greece trip in 2019 so we went to see if it was legit. As soon as we walked in we were in awe of the dessert spread that you walk past to get to the counter. The cakes looked SO moist and delicious! There were so many tantalizing flavor combos, but what stopped me in my tracks were the New York Rolls. Think giant crispy stuffed croissants! I ordered the Pistachio Cream one and no lie, it was 6 inches across and 2.5-3 inches tall. They asked if I wanted it heated (umm yes) and it was AHMAZING.i also ordered the fig and honey latte while my husband ordered the Turkish coffee. So good and unique! In fact, our visit was so good that 8 days later I chose Fig and Olive Cafe as a hang out spot for friends and I to gather for brunch. We all got the other three flavors of the New York Roll (Chocolate Hazelnut, Fig and Honey, and Biscoff Cookie) and shared them. I got the Pistachio Crème iced coffee and it was also excellent! 10/10 recommend these pastries! We had the opportunity to sit at the cafe from 9am-12:30 and we sat in cozy leather couches and enjoyed ourselves quite nicely! Staff were friendly and helpful.

I ordered a salted caramel latte with cupcake cold foam, and it was surprisingly not overly sweet--just really good! They have a great variety of syrups and options to customize your coffee. I also didn't realize how much Chandler's has to offer beyond coffee. They have food, mimosas, other beverages, live music, a pool table, outdoor seating, and a cute selection of things for sale, including books and dog leashes. The atmosphere is artsy, relaxed and welcoming, with plenty of seating for hanging out or getting some work done. I also love the little displays featuring local businesses and events. Overall, good coffee, reasonable prices, a great atmosphere, and much-improved customer service. My second experience definitely redeemed my first, and I'll be back!
