Black & Brew in downtown Lakeland is exactly what a neighborhood café should be--welcoming,…read moreenergetic, and full of flavor. The standout for me was the Holiday Ham breakfast sandwich, and it absolutely lived up to its name. Built on a flaky buttermilk biscuit, it layers a light, fluffy egg soufflé with thinly sliced ham, praline bacon that adds just the right touch of sweetness, and a cranberry orange jam that ties everything together with a bright, unexpected pop. Every bite tasted thoughtful and seasonal without being overcomplicated--comfort food elevated. I paired it with Jennie's Dolce seasonal espresso drink, and it was so good I immediately wanted another. Even more impressive? The second one tasted just as perfect as the first--a small detail that says a lot about their consistency and care behind the bar. The coffee shop ambience immediately stands out, with a relaxed yet polished vibe that makes it just as ideal for a casual morning as it is for catching up on work or meeting friends. Service was warm and efficient, and you can tell this place has become a staple in the downtown community. If you appreciate creative twists on classic breakfast favorites and expertly crafted coffee drinks, Black & Brew is well worth the stop. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu.

Talk about a hidden gem! Very low key entrance on a quiet street. Not the largest place which…read morecreates incredible ambiance. I knew exactly what I wanted for the entree but the server (she was incredible) also suggested the poached pear and caprese salads to start. While the poached pear was very good the caprese, with fresh buratta was out of this world! My companion orderd a unique take on chicken cordon bleu and the portion was huge. What brought me here was the roast duck with cherry sauce and it did not disappoint. In fact, it instantly became one of the top 5 entrees I've had in my entire life. Yes, it was that good! They were even kind enough to exchange the potato for the risotto of the day. Finished it off with a scratch made Lemon Blueberry cake. While their wine list is ok and reasonably priced, take advantage of their $20 corkage fee and bring a great bottle to pair with their incredible food! If you don't live in Lakeland, make the drive! You won't be disappointed!

Our server described the dishes perfectly. I tried the Beef Wellington and loved it. I was not crazy about the mashed potatoes I felt like they lacked flavor but the Beef Wellington was the star. We also had the Cherry Roasted Duck. Again cooked perfectly I just wish it was a larger portion. This is on the pricey side so be ready to splurge a little.

When it did arrive, everything was undercooked and/or cold. Everything was blamed on someone else (kitchen) when it was quite clear that she forgot to put our dinner orders in after our apps came out. This set the tone for the rest of what was supposed to be a fun night out with friends.

One complaint: each table features a card advertising happy hour. Although we were there during happy hour, drinks are not available at the happy hour price. Our waiter was as confused about that as we were. He said the cards had been there quite some time. Misleading if not downright deceitful. I love this place too much to make a fuss, but I felt like my loyalty had been betrayed.

Various coffees cold and hot. A good value for a delicious sandwich. The employees are helpful and patient and a pleasure to speak with. This is one of those places you go to when you just want to relax a lot of people go there to work on their computers they have Wi-Fi. It's more of a very easy going relaxing pause in the day. Highly recommend if you're in the area Saturday mornings they have the farmers produce market there which takes up four blocks. It's still accessible but any other day parking is available right there on the street and there's plenty of it.

I have to find one like it in my area. Luckily, it's also a coffee shop so I usually get a coffee as well. If you've never been here, they're located in downtown Lakeland. Now on this particular visit wasn't too busy and I was able to order and get everything right away. The lady working the front was so sweet when I told her how much I love the carrot cake she got me a fresh slice of a new cake and it was so good!! The carrot cake by itself would be perfect but velvety cream cheese icing on top really brings it together. No on this visit I did get a nice latte as well. That was a little dark when it first came out, and she could tell by the look on my face that something wasn't right and she fixed it right away lol. I wish Mitchells was closer but it's definitely worth the drive.
