    Work hard, love people - nice words

    A friend of mine had asked if I had checked out Grit Coffee in Wburg yet and in fact, I had not, so when I had made a cowork date with my work bestie, we went to Grit Coffee to check it out. - Parking - Street parking or there is a small free lot in the Midtown Row nook. - TLC - The barista was super sweet and super attentive to our requests. Great customer service. - Vibe - Very minimalistic vibe and clean. - Sips - We had had just had lunch nearby, so we weren't hungry, but could use a pick-me up at the time. My work bestie got a decaf mocha with oat milk hot and I opted for the strawberry matcha special iced. She seemed to like hers and I really liked mine! It was more on the strawberry side, but I still tasted the matcha. It was like a strawberry milk with matcha! Super tasty. This looks like a nice, little newly developed neighborhood. I am familiar with the area surrounding it, but when the GPS led me in this nook, I was surprised when I got into Midtown Row. Great combo of apartment buildings and businesses. They seem to be doing well as there were quite a few patrons during our visit. Enjoy, Friends, and never stop exploring!

    I'm a huge fan of Grit Coffee! I love the Richmond locations and am obsessed with the Charlottesville spots. ***LOCATION*** This one is located in a strip mall near Lafayette st. in Williamsburg. There is a good amount of free parking nearby this coffeeshop. They also have bike racks to lock a bike to. ***EXPERIENCE*** Came here with my work bestie to cowork. I got a decaf mocha with oat milk and she got the strawberry matcha special. I found myself not liking my mocha as much as I usually do, maybe it's the decaf? Unsure, but it was still pretty good. My friend said her drink was heavier on the strawberry flavor. She still liked it. It's a very great place to get work done. It's quiet with a lot of seating options and natural light. The barista who served us was patience and funny. She matched our playful energy while ordering. ***PRICE*** Our two drinks were about $15. ***BATHROOM*** They have two gender neutral single stall bathrooms rooms here that have vacant or occupied locks. ***CONCLUSION*** I'm a huge fan of Grit and love seeing it in Williamsburg. This location is newer and I'm excited to see it grow a bigger following.

    Spacious coffee shop with good service and good lattes. They had pastries that looked good but didn't try.

    Discovered this indie coffee shop in Williamsburg near Busch Garden exit off Merrimac when I was…read moredown for a brief visit and OMG - BIGGGGG LOVE!!! So much to love about this new discovery besides the fact that it's NOT a Starbucks lol and for those that know me, you know I love and love to support and discover tucked away indie coffee places (see my reviews!). This place is also a roastery and sells their own bean blends. I don't know the history behind the shop and name but was told it is chemistry themed and owned by W&M alum - yassssss! Service is SUPER friendly and excellent so that's a bonus! I lovvvvvvve that the latte menu is chock full of super creative seasonal flavors - so many to choose from!! I stopped by twice while in town and staying just down the street. Had a hot Rose Macaron latte and the next day had the Lemon Bar. Both were DELICIOUS. NOT OVERLY SWEET BUT WITH SUBTLE FLAVORS AND BOLD ESPRESSO TASTE. NOTTTTTT WIMPY WEAK. Both days I had the OG Bacon Egg Cheese sando on an ET bagel that was a decent accompaniment to my seasonal lattes which were clearly the stars of the show. I was there during the week - once mid afternoon, the other day late morning and it was not crowded at all both days. The seating area is HUGE. 2 separate adjacent rooms - walk through the front ordering area and you'll find a large, super cozy and inviting "living room" type space with comfy couches, armchairs, dining tables with chairs and even cubes for studying. Dark and moody vibes. SUPER COZY, RELAXING AND KEPT VERY CLEAN AND TIDY. The other seating area has a bunch of tables and chairs, lots of windows, brighter and more conducive for gathering. I took and posted a bunch of pics and some vids so check them out. So glad to have discovered this coffee spot and gem! Will definitely be back when I visit Williamsburg again! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

    GET THE BUTTERSCOTCH LATTE!!!!…read more This place is always busy. That's how you know it's good. It's so worth the wait to have a cup of coffee here. Their baristas know their stuff. It's cozy inside and outdoor seating available as well.

    Came here to meet someone from Norfolk without having to cross the water. Let me say that…read moreWilliamsburg parking is often a nightmare, but there is a lot in the way of fair-priced parking lots nearby. Everything we had, I would get again. The "chilli eggs" were great. The lamb was so good we saved half just so we could have it later in the day. The lattes were solid, too. For a place where you have to wait in line to pay and have your food brought to you, it is not cheap. But the prices don't feel like you're being gouged either. Just don't expect to get out of there with two people and pay $30 dollars. It will not happen. Also, don't expect quiet. This place is loud. Small rooms with lots of chairs and nothing to cushion the noise. My perfect visit: 1. Have someone order the food and find seating. 2. You go to the dessert place a few doors down and get a medley of treats. 3. If you're two people, order three things and share a bit of each. 4. When you're almost done, order two coffees to go then sit back down. 5. Someone will bring you your coffees and you can walk out with drinks in hand and snack on chocolate covered items as you walk back to your car. 6. Complain that you should have gotten the large coffee and didn't ask for napkins so your fingers are a bit sticky. 7. Drive contentedly home and talk about what your favorite thing was. 8. No, no one is nice about merging back onto that highway, but that's not Hohl's fault.

    The Cheese Shop I'm honestly mad at myself for not taking pictures -- because this place is that…read morefun. You can grab a sandwich (lots of great options) and their house dressing alone is worth the stop. Seriously delicious. But the real fun is the cheese counter. You can build your own cheese board, browse all their incredible cheeses and charcuterie options, and then... here's the best part... Take everything downstairs to the cellar, order a glass (or bottle) of wine, and just enjoy. No rush. No fuss. Just good food, good wine, and a great atmosphere. It's one of those spots that feels like an experience, not just a meal. Fun, relaxed, and so, so yum. If you're in Colonial Williamsburg, don't skip this one. Grab cheese, grab wine, and settle in -- you'll be glad you did.

    The cheese shop is still a great place right in Merchant's square!…read more I got my usual and it was fresh and delicious! Turkey & Provolone on French Bread! I also tried one of their chocolate chip cookies and a brookie and they were both delicious! Will get those again! Loved that on a busy Sunday lunch time that they had an employee greeting everyone and telling them how the ordering process works and directing people to where they ahold go! Made everything so efficient! No seating inside but plenty outside! Also lots of yummy treats and food items to look at inside while waiting for your sandwich to be prepared!
