Cafe Duro is a must when visiting the Lower Greenville area!…read more I recently visited this amazing European-style café during breakfast on a weekday and it was amazing. Please note that parking in this area is particularly difficult but if you come in the morning, it should be easier to find. Another thing worth nothing is that they are more of a quick standing coffee bar type of place and I definitely wouldn't recommend it for families or kids, so keep that in mind when visiting. Now to the food... They have a small but mighty menu for breakfast and lunch. For my first time I decided to try their The Monte Duro, which is a pastry style "hot pocket" with smoked prosciutto, mortadella, mustard and jam. For drink I decided to go with their Dirty Chai Latte. The drink was absolutely perfection and exactly what I needed in a warm Texas morning. The Monte Duro was cooked to perfection and packed with flavor! Both my friend and I ordered the same thing and we were both obsessed with it.

The staff is not really friendly but the vibes were still peaceful. Mushroom grilled cheese: This was so yummmy!! The bread comes perfectly crispy and buttery. There were tons of mushrooms and creamy flavor. By far one of the best grilled cheeses I ever had. Banana horchata matcha: This drink was very sweet and good for people that dont like bitter drinks. I loved the banana flavor and it reminded me of banana bread. There was also a lot of cinnamon in the drink which made it so tasty.

Loved the merch in the back, especially the tote bags! It was packed at all times on a Saturday, and the line was always long! However, the drinks came out pretty quick, and the employees were definitely working hard behind the counter. I got the matcha squared drink, which was so creamy and not as sweet as some of their other drinks. I was wanting to try a holiday drink, but I was too scared it would be too sweet, so I'm glad I chose the squared latte instead. Not much seating inside because of how small it is, but there are some small tables outside on the porch, and the weather was perfect!

The matcha I was really excited for, but again the pre made monin syrups really take away from it. The matcha was mostly milk, with a hint of banana syrup and had that grass taste.

The music is always the best music in the background. You could easily chill listening to it, get some work done, or pick up pieces of others' conversations. It's easy to drown out the noise here. Most importantly the coffee is fantastic. The lavender latte might be made of unicorn tears. It's the best I have ever had. I tried one of their cookies on my last visit and it was sinfully delicious. Kind of melty without being warned. Amazing. Stay long enough to check out the little shop attached. Some fun finds.

The matcha color is not the same anymore, it used to look pretty green. I know they pre-batched their matcha before hand, but it used to be good back then. We got the Cloud Matcha Latte, Honey Lavender Matcha, Butterfly Lavender Matcha Latte, and Strawberry Lemonade. The cloud matcha was the one that tasted the best, the lavender matcha was so bland and had no honey taste. Surprisingly, the strawberry lemonade was the best drink out of all the things we got. Not sure if I'll come back since there are better matcha places in the area.

I got a medium black coffee and a slice of blueberry cake kind of like a pound cake. It was so reasonably priced. I had to do a double take. The coffee was great. I was able to drink the whole thing without adding milk, which means it was not bitter at all and it was in the afternoon about 2 o'clock the cake was a nice thick slice and I think their stuff is gluten-free here. It had a nice light non-guilty feeling to it lol I highly recommend this location because it is definitely but a friendly and the products are great. I don't have any photos because my phone was on its lowest line on the battery and I needed to save battery life so I could get my Uber and get home lol

Cafe Frida is such a cute cafe nestled in Garland. Its spacious, with ample seating and outlets!…read moreThey also have an ice cream shop as well separated by a door. I ordered a banana matcha with oat milk and it wasn't overly sweet which i appreciate. I enjoyed it but I could've wished for more banana flavoring to come through. It said it came with banana milk but I asked if I wanted whole milk or an alternative so I wonder why the banana milk isn't standard. I think it would've enhanced the flavor. Oh and the menu notes ceremonial grade matcha for anyone wondering. The space is vibrant and bright with lots of decor going on. It seemed like a very popular spot with customers bustling in for a few hours. I'll be back to try some more matcha drinks and maybe the ice cream too.

No hello, no I'll be with you, not a wave, or even a we are busy so wait. I stood there hoping that accidental eye contact with anyone on the other side of the counter would lead me in the direction of a beverage. I did work in Italy for 2 months and I know they mean business at the coffee shops there. I guess you could say I had an authentic experience at Palmieri Cafe. The coffee was great. The price was exactly what I expected. The service was less than great. I probably looked like the guy that needed to be ignored that morning. What can I say I needed coffee. I would go back but there are many other coffee stops I need to visit.

The vibe is exactly what I like quiet, relaxed, and perfect if you need to sit down and get some work done or just reset for a bit. The staff was super friendly and welcoming which always makes the experience better. I'm not really a coffee girl, so I ordered a matcha with almond milk and it was really good smooth, not too strong, and made just right. I also grabbed a muffin and I wish I remembered the name because it was delicious. I only stayed for about an hour, but I'll definitely be back. If you're in the area and looking for a low key spot with good drinks and a chill atmosphere, this is a great place to check out.
