Coming from a place like Las Vegas, which has so many great options for "slow bar" single origin…read morecoffee, we are always a little worried how our small town vacation destinations will stack up. This coffee spot fulfilled our every need during our week stay in Belmont! They have multiple single origin coffee options that can be prepared as a pour over, aero press, French press, or siphon! We tried all of them over the course of the week from the Ethiopian, Mexican, and Honduran beans. Even their drip and iced coffee measures up. One slight demerit for there being some grounds in the drip. The coffee cake is also moist and delicious! The male barista with the red hair was so friendly and accommodating the entire week as we entered each late morning. Plenty of seating out front, within the coffee bar area, and out back.

It was mostly empty when I went as it was an odd time of day but I could see it being very fun in the evenings. My coffee was delicious and fresh brewed. They offer a lot more on their menu that all looked like good options so I am looking forward to going back to try other things.

My wife and I went in for a late lunch today.

My sandwich came with Swiss cheese but I ate it anyway for the sake of time. The nice server offered to remake my sandwich, and actually did, but I told her not to - she promised a discount for the mistake. No Discount $5.00 Diet Coke $3.00 Tap water $40.00 total with tip We will not be back. I felt violated when we left.

The inside is so cute and homey. I recommend trying one of their muffins or scones, they pair nicely with an iced coffee. Be sure to come in on Tuesdays for double stamps on your punch card! They also have themed menus that get changed out every few weeks/months (in the past they have done Stranger Things, Disney Princesses, and 90s Nostalgia). I will forever recommend this coffee shop!

I honestly may have never stumbled upon it otherwise because it's located underneath apartments in Belmont. It was a little hard to find but once you get in the area you can see it pretty clearly. I ordered a very delicious cranberry apple cider. It was tart, hot and perfect for this cold rainy day. They had some really cute seating and seasonal drinks. I could see this being a fun place to work or meetup with friends to catch up. The service was great too, everyone was kind and helpful. Very cute lil spot! Gotta come back and try their coffee!!

I was excited about a new coffee shop but I got to honest this is a super nice place in a super not…read moreso nice area. I understand the whole revival of the area but this is over the top. Anyway the coffee is of course good but staff are not pleasant at all. It seems like we are not at their level and couldn't care less about your presence. And this isn't a once off time, I've been here multiple times and various hours from mid day to 40 minutes before closing. Same service, same attitude. You get a friendly waitstaff at Waffle House!! It's really strange to have such an upscale business in the west side of Gastonia. Cross the street or walk down a few blocks and you'll quickly question your choices. I like new coffee shops a lot, but this one just isn't it.

Waterbean Coffee has a beautiful aesthetic, and the space itself is large, open, and inviting. It…read morewas my first visit, so I wasn't familiar with the menu or the different drink options available. Unfortunately, the customer service left a lot to be desired. The young employees working behind the counter seemed completely uninterested in interacting with customers. I don't expect anyone's undivided attention, but a simple greeting and a welcoming attitude go a long way. Instead, it felt like I had interrupted their TikTok sessions when I walked in. There was very little enthusiasm or engagement throughout the ordering process. To be fair, the coffee itself was good and met my expectations. The seating area near the restrooms in the back looks nice from a design standpoint, but it's not particularly comfortable if you're planning to stay awhile. Overall, the atmosphere and coffee were positives, but customer service is part of the experience. With so many coffee shops in the area that offer both quality drinks and friendly service, I'm not sure I'll be returning.

So I was given a double shot of espresso with some extra water and I said can you fill it up to the top and he said no because it becomes a different drink which is WHAT I ORDERED IN THE FIRST PLACE. I cannot help you are inept and don't understand, but charging someone an extra .50 for literally the same cup with extra water is absolutely ridiculous. I will never come back and I will make sure as many people as I can find hear about this bs. What a joke of a place

And the ambiance was spectacular, the place was very tidy and cozy. I will be back again soon....

Overall service was very good; our server was pleasant, attentive and patient throughout our stay. Our party mostly ordered the various burger options ( all were juicy and served with mayo ) served with either fries or a side salad and I'd recommend the Hangover Burger myself. The spicy chicken sandwich was another good option for chicken lovers. Again we passed on the pastries but the ice cream was very good. I again witnessed the tale of two restaurants as the primary business and labor focus appears to be on the ice cream, baked goods and pastries side which did impact the in dining side service of the business. Could just have been a staffing issue but something to be aware of when considering table service. Overall restaurant offered friendly service and good food that's reasonably priced.

I had to see in person why The Traveling Sip. I arrived at a nice cute place located in a strip mall area with pink chairs, and the inside theme was screaming Golden girlies. Love it!! We were greeted right away from the owner and the staff. They highlight their menu from us from coffee to other created drinks from The Traveling sip. Me and husband decided both to try The Betty. Enjoy every sip it was very delicious and made to order. There is plenty of free parking space. I can't wait to go back and try the other drinks.
