The Gladstone is located in the back of eclectic home/garden/gift/gallery shop Uniquely R's. It's…read morecool, quiet and dark with otherworldly ambience. They have a great selection of teas and french press. They do not do espresso. There is a small but sophisticated menu that offers quiches, scones, cheesecake and a few savory pastries, all made by a European trained chef who bakes exclusively for The Gladstone. The presentation is awesome. Hours are Tues-Thurs 10am-6pm, and Fri-Sat 10am-10pm. And they are actually open for these hours, they do not close randomly like some other local Goldsboro businesses. This is a really neat place tucked away in Goldsboro, definitely worth checking out.

I arrived at 7 and sat here for five hours. Ouch! And despite that, no one seemed to mind. The inside dining area ebbed and flowed but it never got to the point where I felt like I was taking up a table for a "paying" customer. A drip coffee mid-morning got me through to noon and it was time for me to move on. Overall, a fantastic spot and the coffees were absolutely top notch!

Humble decor,…read morea bit minimalist (especially if you walk over from Cry freedom store) but incredible quality of a latte. Staff were friendly but got confused when one person asked for a to go cup, they made our whole meal and coffees in to go containers even though we had mentioned we were eating there. Felt bad to be that wasteful and I'll try to be clearer next time. $13 for a slice of bread with avocado and egg- but MAN it was good. Will be back to try more pastry options for sure.

The coffee wasn't good, I got an iced dark chocolate latte and the coffee just genuinely isn't flavorful or appealing. I got one of each of their HIGHLY over priced macarons (3$ a pop, they were very small) and they had no flavor to them. It was like eating straight up sugar with like a whisper of flavoring if that. Wholly unappealing. The Lorraine quiche was really good tho! I got the blueberry Bundt cake and the blueberry cheesecake to go for my husband and he the cake was REALLY dry and the cheese cake crust was not good. "The best part of these desserts is the little candied blueberries at the top" the ambiance was quite bleak and really unfriendly feeling. Like the lighting was terrible, the whole sitting area is poorly lit and feels like a prison cell. Just really not a comforting cafe/bakery to walk into and the eats were not good either. I won't be going back or recommending to anyone. *not a set up review, if you look at all my past reviews I say what I feel both good and bad. Just bc Debie is mad at her second bad review in quite a while doesn't mean it's a set up LOL

The breakfast items includes food like croissants bacon egg and cheese sandwiches (or other bread options), breakfast bowls, fruit cups, and yogurt. There are more food items too. Warning!

The shop has a very cool mission. A percentage of sales proceeds go to help victims of human trafficking.
