I would have been okay with just the pumps but appreciate their willingness to redo it.

We have been going to the Burney's location in Southport for years when at the beach.

This morning I made the hour drive because my daughter loved the chocolate buttercream ones so much. I ordered two dozen so we could share with friends and I ordered online. There is a place to type your order (no dropdown for their flavors) and I was careful to type it myself. I paid for these online, but when I arrived to pick them up I added two more items, so a rather expensive bakery purchase over all. When I opened the box, I found chocolate filled instead of chocolate buttercream. I told the women that this is not what I ordered and I would like to switch them. The woman who was in charge asked to see my receipt and it said chocolate on the receipt. I told her that was not what I ordered or wanted. She said "well that's what it says on the receipt." And then she said "we can give you buttercream but you will have to pay for it." So obviously they had the chocolate buttercream and could have simply switched them out. I told them this was very poor customer service and a poor way to run a business. Especially for someone with a large order driving there from out of town. No one had touched the croissants. Unfortunately this was not the only bad interaction with this store. My first interaction with this establishment was when the nurses in my office ordered the filled croissants. I had never tried them at that point. We ordered a dozen each, submitted online in 4 separate orders. When the woman from our office who lives closest went to pick them up, they had packed them 24 to a box and refused to separate the orders. They made her PAY for the extra boxes and stand there and re-package them herself. If each of us had walked in and ordered a dozen, the boxes would have been free. They have tasty sweets but you can't be this rude and run a business. They have lost many customers today.

I also love that there is a Caribou Coffee shop at this location. I've actually never been to a Caribou Coffee shop anywhere so this is my only experience with an actual brick and mortar shop. It used to be SO good. I always got great coffee from here and it was always a pleasure to visit. This time - not so much. I wanted to try the iced honey cold press coffee but I was informed they were out of honey. Bummer. So then instead I went with the iced oat vanilla shaken espresso. I was rung up but then told they did not have oat milk, so they offered me coconut milk instead, which as we all know, changes the consistency of the drink. When I was handed the drink it had one of those icee type tops on it and it was filled to the brim, so the coffee was spilling everywhere! Once I cleaned everything up and took a sip of it in the car, it was just not good. It was overly sweet, watery, and not creamy at all. I was so disappointed as it cost me $8.00. I'm so bummed that this location seems to have gone down hill as it was always such a nice coffee stop break.

Many of them do have some standalone places like Starbucks and other coffee houses but a lot of them are also found inside shopping centers food courts malls etc They offer many different styles of coffee like any kind of a coffee specific sort of brewhouse Some say they're a little pricier but it seems like they're competitive with Starbucks only not as burnt tasting to me because I am not a fan of Starbucks This is a second one by the Iowa 80 group that they bought in franchise themselves the other one in the main Iowa 80 world's largest truck stop. I don't really do those fancy schmancy coffees at all the kids and the hipsters are into and all the flavored things I just like cream and Splenda LOL. So I came in and got just a regular house cup of coffee before I walked back out to the truck after dining at the food court and the service was good by the Iowa 80 employees and a whole lot more it was perfectly fine and I don't have any complaints.

Lovely and cute bistro with lots of boba and drink options!…read more I live right across the street, so the location is perfect for me. This bistro is located in the same shopping center as the Food Lion and Hwy 55. There aren't a lot of parking spots right in front of Boba Beans, but there's plenty right on the other side near Food Lion. This is a great place to grab and go or stay for a while. I've come a few times to work while waiting for my car inspection next door or when I just needed to get out of the house since I work from home. There are plenty of tables and chairs throughout and even some couches if you'd like something more comfortable. I don't like tea or coffee much, so I can't give a review on those, but they have a Citrus Refresher with boba that is absolutely delicious! I always get that when I go. They've recently changed their food menu a bit, so I'm not sure what is best, but I've also always enjoyed the food there as well. It's made fresh to order in-house. My favorite thing about Boba Beans is that they have staff of ALL abilities. I absolutely love seeing how the staff provides opportunities for people with a variety of disabilities. That's what made me fall in love with it! Not a lot of establishments will give people a chance, but it's great to see this happening here! Highly recommend it if you're in the area!
