Beautiful place, gorgeously decorated! Today went with my best friend and her family and had a…read moregreat time. The service was quick and staff were kind!!! The drinks menu is not overwhelming, so it's pretty easy to find what you want, they have matcha!!! Today we tried the Dot Cake latte which was iced and had sprinkles. It was delish! Also bought my son a dot cake cup and he was enjoying it! There's a bottom floor obviously, a patio, and a second level. The bathrooms are both clean and spacious, there is even a changing table with diapers in the family restroom, which is a huge bonus. Everything is decorated very aesthetically pleasing, lots of pinks, greens, and white washed walls. They definitely thought out the decor very well. Upstairs, there's lovely couches, tables, benches, and bookshelves with puzzles, games, and books to enjoy. We loved it, and we will certainly be back in the near future!! Thanks so much!!

Sorella is a very cute little coffee shop. I definitely enjoy coming here for the vibes and it is…read morecertainly wheelchair accessible but not the easiest to get into for wheelchair users considering the incline leading up to the door. The few times I have been here, the customer service was not excellent. The employees taking my order usually are not the friendliest. The service is quick and the coffee is good, but not my favorite compared to some other gems in Monroe, NC. I have gotten some of their seasonal drinks and a chai tea latte. They do always have a nice variety of fun, seasonal drinks! The chai tea latte is probably my least favorite out of all the chai latte spots in Monroe. It's a little watered down. However, the building is super cute and has a good amount of seating to have a coffee date or even study with some friends/alone.

Just visited The Union Exchange and what a great little spot. We came on a Sunday around noon and…read moreit was pretty quiet, probably because of the time of day. I heard later in the afternoon they have live music and a lot more of a vibe, but honestly it was perfect for my friends and me. They have fishing, a park for kids, games, animals, food, picnic tables, and lots of open space to run around. Very family-oriented and such a nice outdoor experience. We really don't have many places like this in Miami, so I genuinely enjoyed myself. I didn't try the lemonade this time, but I did get an iced coffee and it was delicious. Next time I'm trying the lemonade, it comes in these mini buckets and looked super refreshing with a bunch of flavor options. If I'm not mistaken, parking was free (maybe because it was Sunday), and if you plan to fish, you do need to get a wristband and pay. Don't try to sneak around it because they will come find you pay your dues ;)

The menu offers quite a bit of options of coffee drinks, teas, food and even ice cream. MY wife and I went just for coffee, and it was delicious. By the way, it's imported Colombian coffee, and it was great! Staff was friendly and helpful. We were helped by the owners themselves, and they always had a smile, repeated our order back to us, got our order quickly, and checked on us if things were OK. The common areas and restroom were clean and comfortable, and the y did a terrific job with the looks of it. It has its own free parking lot but with limited spots. Overall, 100% recommended and can't wait to return to ty the food menu.

Several powerful testimonies were shared from women who had gone through the House of Pearl's recovery program. Their testimonies of recovery from addiction are truly inspiring. The event was hosted outdoors. Refreshments were generously offered to all who attended this event. There was prayer, testimonies of recovery, and a beautiful song of worship at the end. I left inspired. I was given materials from the House of Pearl's booth which I will be sure to utilize to the women God brings across my path. The house is beautiful and historic and I look forward to visiting again during business hours. Also, I minister on a free 24/7 prayer line : 866-987-7729 please call any time for prayer.

Stopped back in during the week for a quick lunch with my mom and sister. The house was lovely as…read moreusually and the staff nice as ever. We opted for a mix of hot and ice teas. I highly recommend the strawberry tea...taste like summer. We started with the cheese ball sampler. Not my fav as the flavors were not there. It came with 3 mini cheese balls; pimento, goat cheese and a garden veg with pineapple (IKR). Again, great presentation but none of the cheese balls had much flavor to match the name. For entrees we opted for the chicken salad sandwich, the chicken pot pie and the country chicken casserole. My sister loved the chicken salad, my mom just ate most of the filling of the pot pie, I was not a fan of the casserole (one note, no veggies and everything was mushy except the "herb" bread crumbs on top). Next time I will stick to tea and the lovely finger sandwiches and room for the lovely desserts from the bake shop.
