When you arrive parking can be found either on the street or in a nearby parking lot. There was a pretty long line wrapping around the coffee shop so we hopped in line. When we were at the coffee shop there doesn't seem to be enough seating for how much traffic is going through the shop as the inside and outside seating were pretty full. Unfortunately the atmosphere was a bit overshadowed by being overcrowded and several kids running around. The atmosphere inside the coffee shop feels like a modern vibe but nestled within a small town. I ordered a strawberry glazed donut and a vanilla latte. I wasn't the biggest fan of the donut as it didn't taste the freshest and the espresso shots weren't pulled correctly as the latte tasted a bit watery/thin. This coffee shop is crowded as it's really the only option in Fuqua-Varina but may try it again if I'm in the area again.

When you visit a coffee shop, you're hoping the baristas are coffee experts! You're curious about…read morewhere the beans come from, how they're prepared before roasting, and what flavors you might enjoy or want to avoid. Are they organic? Single origin? Blend? Some of the top coffee review sites rave about Black and White. Why? Because the folks at B&W really know their coffee can pretty much answer any coffee question you can think of. Choose your drink and either relax inside, (be careful, it's connected to a chocolate factory!) or enjoy a spacious outdoor patio that can seat many people. The best part about Black and White is that they consistently live up to their coffee reputation.

Most seating is upstairs accessible by a staircase (fairly certain there isn't an elevator option), so that's the main heads up in case of any accessibility needs. However there is seating outside and one table downstairs indoors. They have amazing espresso beans with great flavor. I typically order a caramel latte but have heard the orange latte is amazing. Their muffins are also a nice pairing with the coffee. Highly recommend!

I ordered the seasonal latte which I can't remember what it was called. It had turmeric and some other spaces, I believe it was called the bee latte and it was excellent.

They let me sample their coffee to see which one i would like. It is located in an industrial building with wooden and metal pieces of vintage furniture which makes for a very cozy vibe. I feel great supporting this local business as they focus on high quality ingredients, giving back to the community, and taking care of the environment. What is not to love here! They have seating inside (some booths, a high table, and coffee table seating) and a courtyard which im sure is lovely during warm seasons. I was able to park in a booth and get some work done for a few hours. Its very calm with little distractions. I will say, their parking lot is limited to a few spots in the front but there is plenty street parking. Im not sure if you can park long but i wouldnt be afraid of parking there for grab and go! My only regret was not finding Larry's sooner. What a gem

I came yesterday right when they opened at 7 a.m., before church, and didn't leave until around 7:30. There was only one woman ahead of me, but she ended up running late because her drink was not ready on time. I honestly felt bad for the employee working because it was his first day, and he said the coworker who was supposed to open with him was running late. He seemed really overwhelmed and was left trying to handle everything alone. My friend ended up ordering drip coffee because she could tell he was still learning, and I ordered the crème brûlée latte. It was muuuch too sweet for me, so I had to add some of my own regular coffee to drink it. I completely understand that it was his first day, and I don't blame him at all. I just felt bad that he was left alone during opening. I was really excited to come here, but overall it was a disappointing experience--and I ended up being late for church too :(

The baristas were very welcoming and knowledgeable, providing a sample of the coffee (we were given a coffee from Burundi) , providing some information on their harvesting and roasting practices, and opening up the floor to an audience Q&A. Ambiance is very modern and chic and there are two bathrooms open to visitors in the facility. I would recommend going on time to the tasting if possible for the best seating/experience. I came 15 min late and the seats were all taken and it was a full house. There were no issues with finding parking; there is a gravel lot adjacent to the roastery. Overall, a very unique experience!

You'll see a large parking lot and start to ask yourself what all this church stuff has to do with coffee. Or, for that matter, all the sports and activity resources. Well, they don't. Serenity is a coffee-getting SPACE inside a SPACE that offers all kinds of other things within its SPACE, like a game room, among others. Calling it a "coffee shop" is going too far. But very convenient if you're craving caffeine and don't feel like driving out of your way to reach Ugly Mug or deal with the maddening weekend conditions at Cultivate. (Speaking of which, they use Cultivate beans here. So that's a win.) It's charmless, tucked inside an echo-laden, hall of many shades of gray and not a window in sight. Huge and accommodating, with work tables rocking multiple outlets per person (!), there are good things to say, for sure. Like the barista with the kind demeanor. The churchy feel is pretty overwhelming. If you're not into that or have a problem with it, think again? Idk, it's obvious that the coffee aspect rings as an afterthought, what with everything else going on. If you're looking for a coffee house situation, you won't find it here. But if you want an uber-quiet, enormously spacious, wholly uninteresting place to work, give Serenity Brews a shot. Fair warning, though - the wifi is paltry, so don't bring any demanding work.
