    Cappuccino
    Anahit Z.

    One of the worst cappuccinos I ever had. It was soooo hot, I had to wait for 15-20 minutes to drink it. The coffee beans tasted very bad, too dark roasted (nobody even asked me what kind of roast do I want). The place was very dirty, not clean and very unpleasant to sit there. My friend worked here and use to tell me that this is the best coffee place around here. Well, after trying, I can definitely say, that she was wrong or she never had a good one)) Cappuccino in Elvis is 100 times better (but I don't like this fact that portion is soooo small).

    Cups, a staple of the Jackson community, had always been a popular place for local residents to grab coffee, study, and do work. So upon stopping by this Flowood location, I was enthusiastic about the quality I was about to receive. That, unfortunately, wasn't what I got. The seating areas were decent, albeit, with some tattered and awkwardly placed furniture. When I ordered my coffee, a small vanilla latte, it wasn't too warm, and, in this time of COVID, they also didn't place a lid of on my coffee, but rather had a station for us to place our lid caps and cup warmers on. Usually, this would be totally okay, but during this pandemic, we shouldn't be touching other items that every patron comes in and touches. The bathrooms were also not the most clean, and the cheese danish they handed me was placed in plastic wrap and wasn't warmed up. While the coffee tasted good and the ambience was nice, outside of that, this coffee shop was pretty lackluster. If you're in the Jackson area, stop by one of the many other far better Cups around the area for your caffeine fix.

    Love the coffee. My wife loved the Lavender latte. Prices are good! Much better than that other place named after some guy in a Melville novel.

    People in Mississippi just go googoo-gaga over this place and I'm really not sure why. Since I'm out of luck as far as SBUX is concerned when I am here visiting family, I'm pretty much forced to use Cups to get my iced coffee fix. Now, there is a SBUX inside of Target, but it is awful, awful, awful... I will never return there. The first time I was here, I ordered my iced coffee exactly like I do at SBUX. Well, I tried to. The sizes are different and I wasn't sure of how many pumps to use of the caramel and toffee syrup. What I ended up with was WAY too sweet. The cup was about the same size, so I figured the pumps would be about the same. Not so. The next visit, I had them put way less syrup and I at least ended up with something I could drink. The barista seemed annoyed with me because I wasn't familiar with their sizes. Excuse me for having to take a moment to try to do the conversions and she wasn't even attempting to help me at all. She just stood there glaring at me as if to say "would you hurry up." They do have plenty of comfortable seating here with free wifi. Seems like a good place to sit down with your laptop if you need to get some work done. If you order one of their regular drinks straight off the menu, maybe it's fine? I don't advise going in here with a specialty order if you're from out of town and are a SBUX person. It's also hard to find parking close to the entrance because it's in a shopping center and there's no drive-thru. If you're in a hurry, this could really be a problem. 3 stars why? Because it's my only option. To the State of Mississippi: Please catch the hell up and build some SBUX!

    A quaint little coffeehouse located on the corner of the shopping center. Not much parking in front of the building but plenty in the shopping center parking lot, who couldn't use a little walk anyway . The barista was friendly, and didn't have to wait very long at all. The coffee was fresh and hot, and didn't have that burnt taste like some other coffeehouses have.

    Nice little spot to enjoy a cup of coffee or hot chocolate. Staff is always friendly. They now have this coffee icee that isn't too sweet, it's so good on a hot day.

    The only downfall was all of our drinks were lukewarm, not super hot. Dirty chai and vanilla latte were pretty standard.

    Blondie was a great coffee, even though I am not a huge Caramel fan, but I thought would give it a try.

    Urban Foxes is a true gem in Belhaven Heights. Yes, the coffee is great--but this spot is much more…read morethan a coffee shop. The pastry case is stacked: a wide range of sweet and savory options, all baked in-house, plus a small rotating menu of heartier plates that make it easy to do either a light bite or a full breakfast/lunch. Bonus points for the strong vegetarian lineup and frequent vegan options--my go-tos are the black bean roll and the tomato pie. The baristas are friendly, service is quick and efficient, and the space itself is incredibly comfortable. Set in an old house with thoughtful decor, it has classic coffeehouse vibes (no cold, industrial feel here), making it equally good for meeting friends or settling in to get work done. There's also plenty of outdoor seating and a great backyard. On top of all that, Urban Foxes serves a solid selection of local craft beers and hard seltzers and really leans into community--regular pop-ups, art markets, and music shows ranging from punk to hip hop. Pro tip: grab a free zine on your way in. This place does a lot, and it does it well.

    I had been wanting to try this place for a couple of years. And it lived up to my expectations…read more Delicious and fun. It's a small batch bakery, so there aren't dozens of options. Just what they made that day. Everything we had was delicious. Mixed berry pie, cinnamon coffee cake, peanut butter pie. Chai latte and a couple lattes. Fun interior. Great service. Exceptionally friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend. I am glad I finally made it in!

    Upon approaching this coffee shop, I was pleasantly surprised to see plenty of parking spaces in…read morethe rear of the building in addition to available parking along the street. I also saw covered outdoor seating. In fact, there were multiple options for seating. I especially admired the design-flow which allowed the customer line to be separated from the seating areas so that the customers don't have to be in the way of those that are seated. The shop is bright and bright the element of outdoors into the interior in a subtle way with its plants and large windows. I'm such a sucker for pleasant greetings and warm hospitality! "You had me at 'Hello! How are you?'" The world could certainly use more kindness and genuine southern hospitality. Now, here's what really wowed the coffee enthusiast/hobbyist in me! Espresso shots were being pulled meticulously with attention to detail, including the use of a scale, which provides for consistency! The flavorings/syrups were not pumped haphazardly from the familiar brand-name syrup bottles. Rather, for my latte, an in-house syrup was carefully measured for the perfect taste! My delicious, honey-cinnamon latte was made with care, attention to detail, quality ingredients, and finesse! Loved it! If I'm ever in Jackson, this will definitely be my go-to spot!

    I stopped in for coffee while traveling through for work today and was thoroughly impressed. Yes…read morethe coffee is good, yes the space itself is very welcoming, but what really stood out we're the people the employees greeted me with smiling faces and ask about my Day and made small talk while making coffee. They genuinely made me feel welcomed and glad that I had stopped in, which is so rare in today's society. What great folks
