A recent takeout order consisted of the koshary and the tomato kibbee…read more First off, the bread included with the order leaves a lot to be desired as it was dry and bland. Fortunately, the toum was good enough to make the bread edible. The koshary was well prepared and tasty but needed a bit more sauce and fried onion. The tabbouli was good but soggy because there was too much liquid in the bottom of the container. The tomato kibbee was very good but it was definitely not worth $14.99 for the amount we received. It looked like such a small amount in the container that I weighed it on my kitchen scale. $14.99 for 12.3 ounces is not a good deal. That equates to $19.50 per pound for bulghur, tomato, green onion, a bit of spice, and one Kalamata olive.

The shawerma plates are really very delicious. The one drawback to them is that the chicken (and maybe the rice) has to be microwaved rather than served fresh. I get it. It's a tiny place that I've always been in entirely alone whenever I go. They don't have the traffic for a fresh spit of meat to shave off. Even so, the food is honestly really good and the price isn't bad at all. You can choose the serving size that is best for you, and the large will feed 2-3 adults or make great leftovers. Staff is always very friendly and helpful. I love that I can buy beef bacon here because it isn't easy to find in the chain markets around here.

They only had two baristas when we came in Sunday morning. We were two groups and the food and drinks took a long time. But I think they really needed a third person behind the bar. The Vanilla Oatmilk latte I ordered was super sweet, I'd say if you like sweet, this is for you. If not go with a regular latte. But maybe the Oatmilk was sweet too? It was a bit too sweet for me. The muffin was tasty. And the avocado toast was okay. It was super uniform and flat. The bread was okay. Nothing special here. The service was also flat. I didn't find the same warmth I did as when I went to their competitors in the area. But maybe they were too busy for warmth. I found It cold. Maybe it's new, maybe they are still figuring It out, maybe they were short handed this morning. I wasn't in a rush but other people in my party definitely were disappointed with the wait time. Patience is a virtue. Not sure I'll return with other amazing options. But I hope you do well, it's great to see so many choices in Midland for small coffee shops. Come with patience. The food isn't bad, It just wasn't great.

Manifesting the Perfect Latte (And It Worked)…read more Before I even stepped foot into Live Oak Coffeehouse, I closed my eyes and set my intention. I envisioned the perfect coconut almond milk latte--smooth, rich, subtly sweet, and crafted with care. I felt the warmth of the cup in my hands, the aroma wrapping around me like a cozy hug from the universe itself. I whispered to the cosmos: "Let this latte be everything I desire and more." And guess what? The universe delivered. I entered Live Oak with gratitude in my heart, and the barista--clearly an enlightened being--crafted my drink with the energy of a thousand good vibrations. The first sip? Pure alignment. The flavors danced in harmony, the temperature was just right, and for a moment, I felt like I had truly ascended. The ambiance of this place? Calm, inviting, full of positive frequencies. People chatted, read, worked, all in a state of peaceful flow. You could feel the creativity and good energy buzzing in the air. Some say you can't manifest happiness in a cup, but I'm here to tell you--you absolutely can. If you're ever in Midland, set your intention, walk into Live Oak, and let the magic happen.

Good coffee, friendly staff. Cozy atmosphere to chat with friends or even do some work…read more We were visiting Midland for a niece's graduation. We visited Live Oak Twice during our stay. They have a large selection of coffees that they roast themselves. Unlike a major chain, their coffee doesn't taste like burnt beans. The coffee had a nice flavor, with a strong finish that isn't bitter. Their syrups are also made in house. For the ones we tried, they were delicious. Not sugary sweet, so you can actually decern the various flavors. There was a board with the staff's choices, one being a Cinnamon and Brown Sugar, my partner enjoyed it and it was fantastic when she let me try it. I had both the Caramel Latte and Macchiato. I was pleased with both. Even though we didn't get any, they had a good selection of Gluten Free options. The food is also made in house, meaning that they make these gluten free options on their own. Unlike many other chains and local shops that don't have any Gluten Free options, even if they are resold versions of major brands. That shows a care for those in the community that either for medical reasons or by choice eat Gluten Free. The environment in the shop is warm and inviting. Whether you are having a conversation with friends, reading a book, or trying to work on your laptop you'll find an area for you. The staff was friendlier than what I expect from a coffee shop. Usually they will great you, but they're more about getting your order and moving on to the next customer. The staff here would answer questions and where informative. Surprisingly, many of them were knowledgeable not only about the coffee, but the business itself. Do not sleep on Live Oak Coffee. You'll regret it.

Next time, I'll try something else. Their tea flight looked interesting but I was short on time.

Their menu has a lot of options to choose from but I didn't find it overwhelming and they even have a wheel you can spin if you're super indecisive! Espresso Milano really captures the small town coffee shop vibe that I've been missing living in Metro Detroit. The place felt so cozy and I loved all of the plants, decor, and the warmth of the place. Tons of personality in this little shop. We chatted with Brad for a while and had a nice conversation about the shop and coffee and he was so kind and open to talking to us even though I'm sure he had closing work to do. Espresso Milano has been around for 31 years!! and I can see why even from this short visit. PLUS the coffee was delicious! Not too sweet at all, I love to be able to actually taste the coffee in my drinks. I would definitely recommend stopping in. It also seems like it would be a great place to have a chat with a friend or to bring a laptop to get some work done. I'll definitely be returning the next time I find myself in Midland.
