    Halwa Bakery & Cafe - London Fog latte was perfect, but the Lebanese Pastry was not fresh

    Halwa Bakery & Cafe

    This contemporary and relaxing bakery and coffeehouse located in Blacksburg, Virginia, specializes…read morein Egyptian and Lebanese inspired desserts and baked goods. But above and beyond their Middle Eastern pastries and unique drinks like Turkish Coffee and Mango Madness, it is an inviting environment with comfortable tables, chairs, and couches, to spend quality time socializing with good friends or with a laptop connected to the internet with their Wi-Fi, doing research for that special project. After being awarded the Triad Yelper of the Year 2024 Award at the Yelpies Award Ceremony last year, an event that honored the highest-performing Yelp Elites, I decided that this year, as an All-Star Yelp Elite, I not only wanted to be the first to discover new restaurants and bring them to the attention of the public, but also to uncover those found in hidden paths that for one reason or another have not reached the public in its totality. And Halwa Bakery & Cafe is the perfect example. After having dinner with a friend at another restaurant, we decided to come here for dessert. When we arrived, it was easy to find a parking space right around the corner of the Cafe. The place had outdoor furniture to be able to enjoy your food and drink outdoors in nice weather. Inside, the beautiful hardwood floors and exposed ceilings, together with the unique lighting treatment, gave special character to the place, and providing an extraordinary environment in which to better enjoy the moment. On the left of the ordering counter there is a couple of large blackboards with the menu written on them in color chalk. On the right, there are several display cases with Sandwiches and Pastries for one to observe and make better choices. My friend ordered a Baklava Cheesecake and I ordered a Peanut Butter Special Cake. As we sat down enjoying our desserts, that were amazingly delicious, the place was full of people. Some working on their laptops, others socializing, and others simply enjoying their food and drinks. As we were leaving, I saw on one of the walls two framed newspaper articles from The Roanoke Times, with color photographs, on this Blacksburg bakery with Mediterranean pastries. I highly recommend this place as a perfect environment to enjoy some cultural food and drinks, either alone, with your laptop, or with good friends.

    Came here twice while visiting VT and it was great - friendly staff and such a staggering selection…read moreof drink, snacks, baked goods, and treats. The dining area was a great place to hang out - warm, cozy, and comfy. This is really nice spot to spend some time.

    First time as heard tons about this place. It's a very quick experience so if you aren't familiar…read morewith the menu then make sure you do not get in line. They do have a QR to scan but that's not conducive to driving/navigating the lanes. There are two lines and people standing with pads to take your order. Very quick and efficient system. You won't wait long at all. There's music pumping out and people working there are having a good time. The person taking the order was patient and friendly. You can pay when you order or cash at the pick up counter. The cashier was just as nice too. Ordered a large house blend with one pump of sugar free carmel syrup and one pump of sugar free vanilla. This is the same as a blondie but was nervous ordering that in case it was overly sweet. This has a touch of taste. Probably should have gotten two pumps of each. Rookie mistake on my part. Also ordered a cold brew with cold foam. Asked if there was sugar in the foam and was told yes so got it without sweetener. They give you maybe - seriously, like maybe a 1/4 tsp of foam on top. So, the drink is very strong without added creamer/sugar AND cold foam. Aside from the rookie errors - again our problems since never been - the coffees were just okay. Wouldn't go out of my way to get again (we took slight detour from our route). However, if one is in the area and it was convenient would for sure try again.

    Super fun little drive though coffee spot! We checked out this spot when driving home from…read moreVirginia Tech. Lots of syrups and flavors for your drinks. So many options it was hard to choose what to drink. My husband had a sugar free latte which he enjoyed. He was happy to see sugar free options. I opted for the 7 Energy drink and chose Guava and Orange as my flavors. It was good. It gave me a little pep for the day. My daughter ordered s smoothie and loved it. I think if this spot any closer to where I live it would be dangerous. If I am in a town with a 7Brew I plan to stop and you should too.
