Especially now during the pandemic, I love supporting local businesses, and Revive Coffee Shop is one of those local businesses you will want to support! The moment you walk in the door you can feel positive vibes. Great decorations, all kinds of coffee, delicious food (both savory and sweet), all served with a smile...
After no sleep the night before, and 6 hours on the road driving from the Rio Grande Valley, I needed exactly what the sign says: to "Relax, Renew & Revive". Turns out they delivered on all three!
I was reminded of the Cheer's TV theme song, "where everybody knows your name," because as I sat there, most everyone who came in was greeted by their name and was known by the staff. People are people, not numbers at Revive. In fact, even the tables have names rather than numbers! Yep, each table has its own name reflected by the decorations which all blend together somehow in an ecclectic harmony of positivity and warmth. I loved the bicycle table (yes, made from an actual bicycle!), the Star Wars table, and also those with themes like faith and love (who doesn't need more of that this year!).
It is obvious the owners have a sense of humor, and their signs of quips and quotes scattered throughout the shoppe are sure to bring a smile to your face. I especially identified with the sign that says, "All I need today is a little coffee, and a whole lot of Jesus!" (Don't we all?) It's definitely a family friendly atmosphere, and a great place to meet with friends or co-workers.
I was impressed with the cleanliness, from the tables, kitchen to the bathroom. Great job.
I was surprised by the menu and the offerings of fresh food! Why would anyone want to go to their big competition which only has prepackaged, frozen food warmed up in a microwave, when you can go to Revive Coffee Shop for real fresh delicious food, cooked right there... and at very reasonable prices???
I really enjoyed my cappuccino and some delicious chilaquiles (with chicken and egg) for lunch. The serving was so generous my only disappointment was I couldn't eat one of their famed desserts I had heard about... They have all the other specialty coffees, frappe's, espresso, mocha, you name it, as well as specialty teas... oh yeah, AND free WiFi!
Revive Coffee Shop is definitely on my "return to" list. I really enjoyed my visit and know you will too. They are located on Hwy. 277 about 4/10ths of a mile east of Veteran's Blvd, on the south side of the highway. Look for the low building with the orange awning.
