They sell Taiyaki sandwiches that seem to be made of a batter similar to waffle cones filled with sweet and savory ingredients. The waffle is pressed into the shape of a fish. Order 1 for a snack or 2-3 (3/12) for a meal. I had the Toasty which was like a grilled cheese with scallions and black sesame seeds. Simply delightful. My friend had the Anko which is filled with a Japanese sweet bean paste. She liked hers as well. You place your order and wait 5 minutes. There were three of us and our fishes came out pronto. When you order you see WAFU ice cream waffle cones. Visually these are beautiful and unusual flavors. They fill the cones with vanilla or matcha ice cream. If I had not been bundled up for a January day I would have taken a licking. Like them on FB for dates and locations.

Their taiyaki is delicious- I ordered their grilled cheese taiyaki but I've had their other flavors before. They are super cute and filling, and I even got to try their Cherry Blossom soft serve made from real cherry blossoms! It was perfect on a sunny day (even though the weather was a little chilly). I highly recommend trying Wafu Taiyaki if they pop up at an event near you!

I am an instant fan of her chocolate dipped pretzels and chocolate cake pops. Loved her banana bread with and without nuts. She has had some fun and tasty cookies, size large and two for $5. An interesting one was strawberry banana. Her cupcakes are beautifully decorated. I enjoyed a vanilla one with white frosting that was good but don't usually buy them. She has found that cinnamon rolls are popular in this area and has been experimenting with flavored ones--I enjoy the cream cheese covered one and a biscoff one. The lemon blueberry was okay (blueberry alone maybe better). Now she's trying savories. She had a lovely peach crisp recently. One Saturday she ran a BOGO on everything so it might be good to "like" her page and know if she does a great sale again.

Black & Brew in downtown Lakeland is exactly what a neighborhood café should be--welcoming,…read moreenergetic, and full of flavor. The standout for me was the Holiday Ham breakfast sandwich, and it absolutely lived up to its name. Built on a flaky buttermilk biscuit, it layers a light, fluffy egg soufflé with thinly sliced ham, praline bacon that adds just the right touch of sweetness, and a cranberry orange jam that ties everything together with a bright, unexpected pop. Every bite tasted thoughtful and seasonal without being overcomplicated--comfort food elevated. I paired it with Jennie's Dolce seasonal espresso drink, and it was so good I immediately wanted another. Even more impressive? The second one tasted just as perfect as the first--a small detail that says a lot about their consistency and care behind the bar. The coffee shop ambience immediately stands out, with a relaxed yet polished vibe that makes it just as ideal for a casual morning as it is for catching up on work or meeting friends. Service was warm and efficient, and you can tell this place has become a staple in the downtown community. If you appreciate creative twists on classic breakfast favorites and expertly crafted coffee drinks, Black & Brew is well worth the stop. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu.

The owner took our order and was super friendly. We got the full kabob burger with a side of fries and a drink as well as the full chicken kabob sandwich. The kabob burger was excellent! We loved the fresh baguette with the Persian lamb kabob meat. They're super generous with the fries portion. The chicken kabob sandwich was yummy and clearly very fresh (everything is made to order), though it didn't have a strong Persian flavor. Highly recommend this spot for delicious sandwiches. Would love to try the FOB burger next time!

Their fusion of Persian and American food is wonderful. I've enjoyed both the shishkebab and their wings.

There's plenty of parking and a wonderful shared eating and socializing location. Lots to try on the menu!

Believed to be a "Scratch Kitchen", this amazing find has a menu that I find myself excited about returning to try. We ordered a drink and an order of the Frescos Egg Rolls. The drink was spot on and the Egg Rolls amazing. We opted not to order a main course due to eating just a couple hours prior but I knew right then and there that I'd be back to try other selections from the menu. Pricing seems to be below average with "happy hour" pricing at specified times daily. Highly Recommended!

This place is so cute! It's pretty big, but it gives that little small owned business vibe…read more Everyone we spoke to was really nice. Our server, Jamie, was excellent! The manager, Shane, came around to every table to chat and check in. The food was absolutely amazing. We got the house breakfast and a biscoff cinnamon roll. The house breakfast came out quick, and everything was cooked perfectly. The cinnamon roll was massive! We barely put a dent in it. The price for everything was really good as well. They have bottomless brunch if that is an interest. The menu was pretty big with a lot of unique options. This will definitely be a place we return to frequently. They have a great variety of flavors for the coffees and lattes. They also have a decent selection of sugar free options. There is a pretty big patio area; the bar is also a really good size. They have a variety of seating, so they can accommodate larger groups. It was easy to get in when we went on a Saturday at around 10, but by the time we left there was definitely a wait. They only have a set amount of the specialty homemade cinnamon rolls, so I'd go early if that's what you are craving.

Another lady got a puddn'shake but noted banana flavor came through when they ordered oreo (Apparently they all have the banana flavor in addition to the purchased flavor.) They do not open a second before opening time and sometimes late, so don't rush to get there. I will go again when my sweet tooth is calling. I like the greater variety of options.

The Kahlua Espresso was next-level -- rich, bold, and packed with real espresso beans that delivered an authentic coffee flavor in every bite. If you're a coffee lover, this is not optional. The Oat Around the World was just as impressive, loaded with generous chunks of homemade oatmeal cookie bars made right in the restaurant. It made every scoop feel indulgent while still perfectly balanced. The texture, creativity, and attention to detail really set Bright Ice apart from your typical ice cream shop. What truly elevated the experience was the outstanding service. The young lady Faith behind the counter was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable about every flavor, and more than willing to let me sample as many of their unique offerings as I wanted. She was patient, engaging, and clearly passionate about the product -- the kind of service that turns a great visit into a memorable one. You can tell they care about ingredients, execution, and customer experience here. Easily one of the best ice cream experiences around, and I will absolutely be back without hesitation.
