    First time here!! Food was good, our party got the Cachapa Especial, La Catria Arepa and more!! The food is extremely cheesy, filling and flavorful. This place deserves more recognition and a lowkey great place to study at!

    I was recommended this place and it did not disappoint! I ordered the Llanera Arepa - it was filled with perfectly seasoned beef chunks, with a slice of cheese and pico, all of that in a piping hot piece of bread. It was delish!!! I also ordered an empanada and thought it was ok. But the star was the Arepa for sure. The service was friendly and we got our food within 20 min. It's a nice casual place, they also have desserts and coffee that i am interested in trying next time. I highly recommend trying out this hidden gem!

    This is a cute little Venezuelan bakery in Suwannee! It's cute and you can definitely have some Instagram moments with your food here! I tried their frozen Guayoyo coffee, but it tasted just like a mocha shake. The cheese empanadas were pretty good, just very salty. I was full from just eating one empanada! The empanadas come with some type of minty mayo dipping which brings the flavors out even more! There just aren't a lot of options for vegetarians or vegans. The prices are pretty decent for the portions. The food is cooked fresh and very flavorful. It does have indoor seating open!

    Sister dateEverything here was an amazing experience. From the service to the food. The cashier was very friendly. The food....ummm...WOW!!! Ah-Mazzzzing!! The amount of food you get it huge! Looking back, I should have shared with my sister. But I brought home leftovers to my husband and he really liked the sandwich. I ordered the Suwannee sandwich. I highly recommend it! I would make the drive to come back out here again!

    My half-eaten Pelua Arepa :-). Soooo good!

    I stopped by this restaurant on a whim this afternoon. I was not particularly peckish but the name looked intriguing. I did not know what a "guayoyo" was but soon learned it is a coffee filtration technique using a cone-shaped cloth and commonly used in Venezuela. I have tried about a dozen arepa restaurants through the years - not an "expert" but enough to say that Guayoyo's arepas are THE BEST. The Pelua Arepa (shredded beef with gouda cheese) was my choice this afternoon. Bread is crispy and not heavy - great texture! Shredded beef is wonderfully tasty and nicely balanced - not too wet and texture was amazing. Guayoyo coffee and tres leches cake topped it all off. Nice brew with a not-too-rich yet sinful cake. I would order this combination again and again and again...

    Eng: This is such a cozy place! I stopped by with my father to get a quick bite and coffee and the atmosphere was welcoming and smells great! I loved my food and definitely will be back to try more dishes! Esp: Este es un lugar tan acogedor! Pasé con mi padre para tomar un bocado rápido y un café y el ambiente era acogedor y olía muy bien. Me encantó mi comida y definitivamente regresaré para probar más platos!

    Guayoyo is a hidden gem located off of lawrenceville Suwanee rd. I am in love with the empanadas!!! My favorite one is the chicken so I highly recommend chicken empanadas.

    Went here to work the other day and didn't want to say anything because I wanted to keep the peace and quiet. However, I believe in recognizing good food and experiences so here ya go. It's Latin and the empanadas were what drew me in initially. I wish I had tried the shredded beef one because the ham and shredded chicken was mainly ham, very little chicken and the cheese didn't melt inside. It was a disappointing, but I will try another one because it was still a nice sized empanada. I couldn't tell for sure, but it seems like they might buy them from someone else rather than make them on the premises because a woman came in with a large pan of something. In any case, the tres Leche cake was soaked goodness. I saved it for later and it was a perfect treat after a horrendous call. I also have been enjoying the light and fluffy coconut smothered vanilla cookie with caramel inside days later. Very unique and flavorful. The inside is inviting and very cute. My only suggestion would be to mix up the music a little because I heard the same music 3 x. Granted I was there over 5 hours, but still. It was very quiet, very few customers and you were able to sit, chat, and enjoy the space very nicely.

    Amazing Venezuela bakery shop. We elected for the beef empanada, ham and cheese empanada and the ham, cheese and plantain pastry plus 2 mocha lattes. Everything was made fresh and was delicious. Next time, we will need to try their cake and puddings. The inside area was also super cute . The only complaint is location if you are going away from 85 as there's no easy way to turn left. If you're on your way to Lawrenceville or 85, this place is very convenient as it will allow you to turn right and directly to highway

    The empanadas here are amazing. The wait for takeout was a bit long. 25ish minutes. However the empanadas were so full of flavor and fresh that I think I'll be back to try different ones. I ordered beef but they accidentally gave me chicken, which was not bad. I'd come back for the beef though. The place was cutely decorated for the Christmas holidays.

    Chicken and cheese empanadas. Seriously delicious
    Kim D.

    Having had a disappointing meal at a restaurant next door, I was scouring for something that would leave a better taste in my mouth. I stumbled upon this place thinking I would get a coffee or pastry, but I was blown away at how vast their menu was. I was so surprised to see Latinx offerings like arepas and empanadas. Seeing the indecision on my face, a woman behind the counter asked me what I wanted and helped me narrow my order down to chicken and cheese empanadas. As you can see from the picture below, these empanadas were glowing. Freshly made and accompanied with a creamy mayonnaise dip, these empanadas packed a delicious crisp bite with their fillings bursting with flavor. The cheese was imported from Venezuela, I was told. The incredible kindness of the people there at Guayoyo is also another reason to visit again.

    We visited this coffee shop and loved it! They have another location in Duluth that I enjoyed in…read morethe past, and I was happy to find this one to be just as good with a calmer ambiance. It's located in Suwannee Town Center and has free WiFi and plenty of seating, making it a perfect place to do some work or meet with friends. I wanted to try the sweet potato latte since it's not offered at a lot of cafes and was also able to add a shot of espresso to get my caffeine for the day. The latte foam was more like a cappuccino top but it was well made and delicious. The coffee and sweet potato flavor was a great combo as well, not too sweet and very tasty. They have a lot of desserts and baked goods, so I had a black sesame macaron, which was really satisfying. You could really taste the black sesame flavor in the shells and there was a lot of cream in-between. I'll definitely have to try the other flavors! The staff were also friendly and were happy to answer questions and offer suggestions (like adding espresso to the sweet potato latte). If you're in the area, I'd definitely recommend checking it out.

I'm still thinking about the cheese one we didn't get so will definitely have to try it next time. We got mango and I it came with those peelable gummies. I didn't love that as I'd thought they were real mango pieces but it was ok because my group hasn't tried the peeling gummies yet so now they have! The cookie itself was good. Texture was crunchy shell and chewy interior. The flavor isn't too strong, lightly sweet, faintly mango but creamy. It was $4 and I'd get one again Overall, I loved this place. Everything was beautifully presented and not too sweet & they put care into the drinks! Definitely give them a try;

The injoelmi flavor is perfect. 2 Basque cheesecake with adorable hand-scooped whipped cream on top. I tried the matcha, but will also try the ube and pistachio flavors in the future. 3 Viral chewy Dubai cookies These are extremely difficult to make. I've had these at a few different shops and the homemade ones here are the best I've had so far. Not too sweet and loaded with crispy filling. 4 Mini Cookies - currently the cookies are Nintendo and Sanrio themed. 5 Seasonal drinks - I tried the black sesame latte, which you can add matcha or coffee to also. Next time, will try the ube latte.

My favorite order is the iced strawberry ceremonial matcha and fruit tart. I have also tried their iced Dutch latte, their strawberry cloud and a variety of their baked goods. Everything is always absolutely perfect. This is the best spot to get work done, catch up with friends, or for a quick coffee run. The inside is absolutely beautiful and serene.

Love that they are open til 8PM, though I wish they were open a bit later.

    I've been a regular at this café for a while, but my recent experience was extremely disappointing…read more I placed my order with the Asian woman at the counter -- who I later learned could be the owner -- paid for it, and waited. After 45 minutes with no update, I finally asked about my drink -- only to find out they had completely forgotten my order. Waiting 45 minutes for a simple drink is already unreasonable, but being blamed for bringing it up was even worse. They didn't offer a free drink or even bring the drink to my table after realizing the mistake. Instead of apologizing, the staff member (or the owner) who took my order walked away and ignored me. Another employee stepped in, apologized, and made the drink, leaving it nearby for me to pick up. About 30 minutes later, the original staff member(who could be the owner) approached me and, speaking quietly in Korean, told me it wasn't her responsibility to remember my order because I hadn't ordered any pastries. She also claimed their system prevented staff in the back from seeing orders--an excuse I later learned wasn't true. This means that all other staff don't know the order and still manage to fill the orders in the back when we place them. The way she spoke, switching to Korean and keeping her voice low, seemed intended to appear polite to others while implying that I should accept her illogical talking, while wasting my time there. I don't see the point that the owner is making that when she didn't apologize for her mistake, and instead deflected blame onto me while treating me like I was in poverty, since I didn't order pastries. Not everyone likes the old, stale pastries they have. But other workers are so understanding and great people, though. Overall, the interaction felt dismissive and unprofessional, and I left feeling gaslit and disrespected despite being a loyal customer.

Their menu is full of creative coffee drinks, and everything we tried was spot on.

As a Colombian, he's particular about his coffee, and he said he was very impressed. That says a lot coming from him--he even told me more than once that I needed to write a raving review because of how much he enjoyed it. We also tried one of their Croffles (a croissant-waffle hybrid), and learning that they import the croissant ingredients from France made it feel extra special. The shop itself is bright and welcoming. I loved the little touches, like protective padding on table corners for kids--such thoughtful detail for families. They even surprised our son with a prebiotic drink, which made the experience even more memorable. On top of the great drinks and food, the service was warm and genuine. You can tell they really care about their customers. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in Suwanee. This spot is going to be the next big coffee destination!
