    I stopped by to grab a drink since I was in the area and I got lucky that they were open until 6pm this day! I tried the seasonal carrot cake chai latte. Oh my gosh how delicious! But super sweet. It's a beautiful space inside. And the barista was great.

    I came to play loteria and try out the yummies and this super adorable place rocks. I had the orange scone and a magic berry matcha. Both were delicious, but the matcha was a bit more caffeine than I was expecting. Totally my fault since I ordered it knowing it had caffeine. The owner talked to us about all the locally sourced ingredients and special events. They even have an adorable axolotl as a pet.

    I'm so excited about this cute Mexican-inspired coffeehouse opening. I love cozy places to get coffee and set up shop to work for a bit. The place itself is small, but they've done a great job of maximizing the space to have some seating options and comfy lounge spots, including a fireplace, which adds greatly to the ambiance. Their specialty coffee is what Mexican dreams are made of: Dulce de leche latte, churro latte, Mexican mocha, and horchata latte (available only iced or frozen). I tried their hot churro latte and it was delicious and not overly sweet. I wish it was hotter, but since I requested almond milk, they were concerned about the heat affecting the flavor. They have shakes (mocha, banana nut and chocoberry), smoothies (mangonada, mango tango, island surprise, and watermelon), energy refreshers made with lemonade or spritzer, Mollimade cookies, and mini and gourmet cochas from SH Conchas (oreo, Nutella, biscotti, mazapán, chocolate, and more). I can't wait to come back and lounge for a bit. Their soft opening was this weekend so hopefully they'll be ready to fully open soon. They're still trying to figure payment options with Square, please be patient as they figure everything out!

    What a cute little coffee shop in a quiet area of south Tulsa! We stopped in for some caffeine and pastries. The sweet ladies at the counter were very helpful! I had the peach chai - it was so good! My husband had one of the energy drinks. We also enjoyed the strawberry cinnamon roll and the biscoff muffin. Mmmm. Can't wait to come back here when we are in the area!

    Valentines Flight

    Today was a first visit to Dulce Vida Cafe. The Valentine's coffee flight I happened to see on reels caught my eye. With that being said, on to the review.... Entering it's a quaint little coffee shop, beautiful natural light, ample seating and plugs for easy access if you are working. There were two ladies working when I arrived shortly after opening. My flight was scheduled for 0830. They confirmed that I still wanted to sip at the shop because I was solo. I confirmed. I'm hoping it was because it was so early, but not many interactions after mine changed. I wouldn't say my exchange with staff was unpleasant, but they definitely needed coffee. Onto the food.... Being early and about to drink all the coffee solo, I needed food. There was not a big selection, but they did have a few sausage rolls, cupcakes, homemade pop tarts, and the most eye catching banana biscoff muffin. Can you guess what I opted for??? You got it, the muffin. The muffin was loaded with bananas, but truly lacked a lot of flavor. It was moist but a bit spongy for my liking. Keep in mind, a review is merely an opinion. It looked delicious and I ate most of it, I'm not sure I would get another though. Leaving what some may think is the most exciting part, the coffee.... The Valentines flight was 4 different iced drinks. I had hoped for hot, but this was prearranged by a friend. The first was a "Love you Berry Much Latte". This one was so tasty. The coffee was flavorful with a bit of berry possibly from the foam, but it was just enough. Sometimes you order flavored coffees and they are overpowered by sugary syrups. Not this, it balanced well. The second was a "Tiramisu Iced Latte". I was really excited for this one since tiramisu is a favorite dessert of mine. It was a bit of a let down, subtle flavor, coffee was good, but I guess I was expecting more of a punch of flavor on this one. Not bad, just not one I would go out of my way to return and order. The third was the "Matcha Made in Heaven". A true matcha, this was creamy with just the right amount of matcha flavor. Sometimes matchas have the grassy or earthy flavor that can be too much. This was good. I'm not sure I would order it again, but if I was a regular matcha drinker you could bet I would order it again. The final of the flight was the "Strawberry Tres Leches Latte". I had one drink of this one and it tasted like the shots were burned. I don't finish it. Overall it was a decent experience.

    Mango matcha
    Ezy S.

    I was very impressed by this little coffee shop. It is very tastefully decorated. It's very peaceful and inviting. I had the mango matcha and it was so delicious. It was not very sweet which I prefer but the owner asked me if I wanted to, she could make it sweeter. I absolutely loved the pace. They also have pastries but I did not try them. Next time for sure!

    Horchata macchiato and strawberry tres leche
    Princess H.

    The place is very cute. Staff was friendly and is available to answer the millions of questions you may have. They make their own horchata and use it in the iced horchata machiatto. This blows Starbucks and Dutch bros out of the water. The tres leche cake is perfect. It's not too sweet and def is fresh. Very chill place to come and catch up with friends. Ok for work or studying if you bring noise cancelling headphones, since it's small the noise from conversations echo a bit. Still relaxing to study

    Marzipan Mocha
    Kristen C.

    Unique coffee menu! I thought I was going to ordered the churro latte but ended up seeing a specialty July menu and ordered the marzipan mocha instead and was not disappointed, this beverage was definitely on the sweeter side but that is what I like! Service was busy but still very nice in helping me.

    Strawberry latte
    Praise D.

    Such a beautiful place. The love, care and culture put into it is incredible. I ordered a strawberry latte and it was delicious! I will be going back (they should have a location closer to downtown or the farmers market)

    Churro coffee

    Such a cute and homey coffee shop! It was my first time coming in while they were doing their pop up with Lily's mini pancakes! I got the Churro coffee and I was surprised by how good it was! The staff was welcoming and patient as well. Will be coming back!

    Matcha lemonade
    Andrew B.

    I love this place. I have two young kids that love to come and get a watermelon smoothie and look at the axolotl. I don't drink coffee, but there is way more than just coffee here. I'm a big fan of the refreshers. Recently have been getting the macha lemonade and that's fantastic. They have lots of little baked treats. Great service, cool atmosphere.

I tried the Chicken fried Chicken. I had no idea the size of the servings. The side dishes were very good. I couldnt finish all of what I ordered. The ranch dressing for the onion rings was very good

    I am the person who overtips, doesn't send back food that is still edible but perhaps not to my…read moreorder specifications, and I am always polite to waitstaff. What follows is why I will NEVER STEP FOOT IN ANTOHER FREEWAY CAFE AGAIN. A few weeks ago, I went in and sat at a table. I watched two other tables of people (one couple another two tables) come in after me. Both got served water and I menus as still waited. I waited still as the waitress came and took an order at one of the tables....still no water, still no menu. I decided I may be invisible, so I got up and walked out. I didn't storm out, just walked out. As I did, the waitresses, literally loitering behind the counter (it was not a busy day) said, "oh, she's leaving". Fast forward to today, we decided to order a late breakfast in. I thought I would give them another chance, maybe it was an off day. Not the case. I went in to get my food from the counter. I waited while the waitress helped someone ahead of me. She asked my name and I told her and she said they were working on it. She went and got two food cartons and put them down in front of me and told me the total. We had ordered an extra side which was not there and I let her know (in an even tone). She barked back at me that she wasn't done. The man next to me looked bewildered. I began to tell the man about my last experience and the waitress interrupted our conversation and basically told me to shut-up. I was stunned. Additionally, the food has gone downhill. I will never set foot in any Freeway Cafe again. I was trying to support local; but there are plenty of better local eateries. I don't know why the atmosphere at this place has changed, but the tension is so thick you can cut it with a knife. Good riddance, Freeway Cafe.

From the beautiful presentation to the delicious flavor and outstanding customer service, the entire experience was wonderful. After submitting an online quote request, I was contacted quickly with detailed information, and the ordering process was seamless when I called to finalize.

When guests saw the cake and learned it was from Ludger's, several of them raved about how amazing their cakes are. This was the first birthday party we've had where nearly the entire cake was eaten!

So I went in today to do this and not only were the staff yet again amazing and friendly and helpful, but they offered to let me try something else and the manager told me they're known for their cakes. since I have never tried their cake before I decided to go for that. I tried the strawberry lemon cake and I am not a cake person, usually because they have tons of icing which is just not my thing. However, this cake does not have icing instead it has this lemon strawberry cream in the middle of the cake with some whipped cream and it is the best thing. This is now the only way that I want someone to give me cake is like this. My next birthday, I'm gonna be asking for a cake like this and I officially will be back to this place. I'm just been blown away by the customer service but also I'm thrilled that they corrected their lemon bars and now I found a place where I can actually like cake.
