    My second time at love life Café, and I'm still happy with their food and service. I met up with a friend for lunch a few days ago and ordered one of their pressed juices and Vegan Chicken Caesar wrap. The wrap was delicious! It had vegan chicken, red onions, tomatoes, pepperoncini, kale, and was topped off with a vegan Caesar dressing. It was filling and the dressing had a nice citrusy flavor to it. It was light but filling. The wrap is served cut in half and one half was enough to satisfy my hunger. The Liver lover pressed juice contained beets, apples, oranges, lemon, and ginger. It wasn't too sweet and was quite refreshing. This café isn't too noisy so bringing a laptop or tablet to get some work done would work out just fine here.

    This dope black female owned coffee cafe spot is definitely a great vibe with the walks decorated in great black art. Its located on an adjacent portion of the Laurel shopping center. The impressive menu of interesting enthused caffienated or non options are many. The staff was very much attentive busy at work preparing the selections of the patrons. I chose the regular acai bowl and the 16oz Camp fire Night iced latte w/oatmilk(its a seasonal favor). I absolutely enjoyed my purchase. This place offers a very relaxed and quiet atmosphere with abundance of seating. The environment is conducive to sitting with the dazzling sun enjoying the moment at the high top or seating low chairs, doing a little reading or work on your computer. The options are up to you but the vibe and setting is everything. While sitting here enjoying my acai bowl and latte, I watched the lady come in with more beautiful black art pieces. Not that I looked specifically to seek out a female owned cafe during National female month; it was my pleasure to have patronized a dope black female owned business. I highly recommend anyone to come and visit this uplifting cafe. It definitely lives up to its name " LOVE LIFE CAFE"/ LOVE LIFE COFFEE.

    The perfect place in Laurel to grab a quick match, coffee, or pressed juice! It's a friendly atmosphere with personable staff. My favorite bite on the menu is the curry chickpea wrap. It's flavorful and filling! The matcha is pretty tastey and there are several flavors to add to the mix to have it made to your liking. There's also a run club that meets at the coffee shop routinely to encourage fitness in the community. I thoroughly enjoy my visit each time! I'll be back for a pressed juice and curry chickpea wrap.

    Been here before and definitely had to come back! My friend got the lavender latte and monkey frappe (banana etc) and I got the Femne Noir , one of the Valentines special. You can order in the kiosk or on the counter. Cozy vibes and great atmosphere, and great lattes!

    This is my go to cafe in Laurel. I love the artwork and ambiance every time I visit. Recently I tried the pesto salad and wasn't all that impressed. I understand it's a healthy menu but me and my colleagues thought it could use more flavor. It's still a refreshing dish but I would go for the toast which is my favorite item on their menu, specifically the tomato. My favorite coffee order: chai tea latte + almond milk + cookie butter.

    Love Life Café Review Definitely a nice atmosphere to sit, have coffee, or bring your laptop to get some work done. I ordered the Dirty Chai with banana flavoring -- it was about $10 and tasted pretty good! I probably should've added an extra shot for a stronger kick, but overall it was a great experience. I'll definitely be visiting again! #LoveLifeCafe #CoffeeLovers #CafeVibes #DirtyChai #MiamiEats #CafeReview #WorkAndSip #CoffeeBreak

    Upon entering the coffee shop, it felt welcoming and the artwork around the shop was fascinating and I was pleased to know it's from a local artist. The place is clean and beautifully decorated. The menu selection is vegan and healthy focused. The names for the drinks were fitted and shows creativity and a playful way of catching one's attention. For my drink, I ordered "How Nuts Are You? Blend of Pistachio-Hazelnut Latte topped with a White Chocolate Drizzte, Cinnamon & I chose Oatmilk. Although I thought I had asked for Almond Butter & Jam Toast on sourdough, I got the Avocado Toast. Rather than complain I told my friend I would be open minded & try it out. Even though I am not a man of avocado I was pleasantly surprised on how tasty it was but I def would have not chosen that for breakfast. My friend got a Love bomb (which is a non-coffee drink) along with Banana toast. We were both pleased and likely to return.

    Love Life Cafe in Laurel is a fantastic spot with a genuinely inviting atmosphere and excellent customer service. From the moment you walk in, the staff makes you feel right at home. I'm always on the lookout for solid plant-based meals, so I was thrilled to see that their menu features plenty of vegan options for wraps and handhelds. I ordered the chickpea wrap, and it absolutely delivered--it was heavily loaded, super filling, and packed with great flavors. Their coffee is also very good and paired perfectly with the food. There are only two main reasons this isn't quite a 5-star rating for me. First, the prices do lean a bit on the higher end for a cafe. Second, while their savory vegan options are great, they unfortunately don't have any vegan desserts to finish off the meal. One of the standout features of this cafe, though, is its commitment to the local community. The walls are covered with incredible pieces by local artists, which gives the space such a wonderful, creative energy. They even host an artist meetup every Saturday at 1:00 PM for anyone interested in connecting. Overall, Love Life Cafe is a solid 4-star experience. It has great food, a wonderful vibe, and is definitely worth checking out!

    Because of the reviews, I was super excited to try this cafe. However, I am not 100% sold on it. I had the "Only Tea N' You" and the Banana Toast. Both were a 2.9/5. Nevertheless, the service was great and I like the ambiance/vibe of the cafe!

    Iced Latte
    Maya B.

    One of my favorite cafes in Maryland! My drinks are always excellent and the baristas are very friendly! Fun seasonal coffees but if you're looking for something healthy they've got good pressed juices as well. Plenty of seating inside and never too overcrowded. Plus I love all the Black art on the walls! Free parking is available and it's great that they're open a little bit late. I return often to support this Black owned business.

    Needed an energy boost and found this super cute BO Vegan coffee shop! The menu is abundant and there is something for everyone that is looking for a healthier alternative meal and drink. I love how inviting the space is as soon as you walk in! The staff is cordial and helpful. Plenty of seating available. And I absolutely adored all of the artistic touches throughout the Cafe! You can tell that someone put a lot of time and love into this space and it works exceptionally well! I chose to order a drink from the seasonal menu called A Link to the Past as decaf and half sweet with oat milk in the iced 12 oz option. It was perfect! I grabbed the Local Tomato Toast as my breakfast/brunch option and it was so delicious! OMG. I wish I had of ordered another one to go! I did grab an overnight carrot cake quinoa bowl and a liver lover juice to go. I've never had a sweetened version of quinoa and now I want to try it that way more often! So good! The juice was tasty, too! There is ample parking in the lot. The prices were on par considering the ingredients and the quality of food that is offered there. I was told to try the same toast but with avocado spread vs pesto the next time as a nice switch up. I'll keep that in mind! I live in NoVa but travel to the Laurel area maybe infrequently. I will definitely make this a staple stop every time I visit now and can't wait to try something else new! If you are vegan/vegetarian or just looking for clean eating options, definitely give this sweet cafe a try and feel the love for yourself.

    I stopped by to support a black business. I ordered a latte with a caramel drizzled. The service was good. I had tho wait a little while. The ambiance is great. I love the paintings that are hanging. My only criticism is the coffee was a whopping $8.00 for a large.

    Hummus Avocado Toast -- 15/10 so good !
    Delana A.

    I love this place & always stop by whenever I'm in town. You can't go wrong w anything on their menu. I've had pastries, breakfast sandwiches , & their butternut squash soup which was 10/10 amazing! What really surprised me was their hummus avocado toast w crispy onion pieces!! By far the best avocado toast i've paid for. Their service is always really great, too! Everyone back there is super helpful & quick to get your order right. They have free wifi and overall it's a chill place to sit and chat or do work. Love supporting this black owned business!

    Tried this place a few weeks ago with my girlfriend…read more I had a fantastic milkshake (the Monster Ink with Oreos and chocolate chip cookies) while my girlfriend opted for the Rainbow Road rolled ice cream (with Fruity Pebbles) in a waffle taco. The portions were huge, the ice cream was tasty, and the presentation was great! The staff was kind and friendly and we appreciated being able to see our orders getting made. Be warned that this is not a place for a little treat - we easily could have split one rolled ice cream and been perfectly satisfied. The space was a little small with limited seating but it was very inviting all the same. Certainly hope to make it back very soon and try more of their menu!

    So, creme roulee - rolled ice cream - was a dessert trend from over 10 years ago, but I have never…read moreheard of it. This style of ice cream originated in France. Rolled ice cream is made by flattening an ultra-thin layer of ice cream out and then rolling it up. See the videos I posted if you've never experienced it. The flavors of rolled ice cream that I tried are ube and blueberry. The blueberry had a blueberry puree on top. The ube was served with whipped cream and toasted coconut. Delightful. I only wish that I had a double espresso to go with it. The flavors of rolled ice cream that are most popular here, so far, are: 1.) Birthday Cake 2.) Strawberry Cheesecake, and 3.) Cookies and cream The team here was also passionate about the ube flavor. We also tried the strawberry yogurt shake, which was delicious. BTW, someone ordered a croffle and it smelled like a buttery breakfast. It is a croissant pressed into a waffle form. We *needed* to get one to share. They have many toppings, but if you're going to order this croffle for breakfast, the plain whipped cream (vs. the mango cream) is not sweet, but creamy and satisfying. The croffle is substantial and eggy. It is very surprising because it's hearty bite after bite. There are no light and flakey bites and before you know it, it's gone. You get your dollar's worth, here. It's a good breakfast. And you can dip the croffle into your house coffee which is even better. I also put some of the croffle cream into the coffee. The house coffee is made from a machine and tastes dark and sweet. Yum. I am wondering where else you would find this no-longer trending trend - of French rolled ice cream - in the DC area. I found 10 places on yelp but only 3 mentioned rolled ice cream in the search result descriptions. The staff here are friendly, informative and patient. The environment is simple, yet elegant. A definite new texture and flavor adventure was found here, to be sure. Thank you, Laurel!

The decor was very nice, quaint, and beautifully Afrocentric, which I loved. I started with the waffle, turkey bacon, and eggs; . I also tried the crepe version of the bacon, egg, and cheese, which was really good. For something sweet, I went with the s'mores crepe and it did not disappoint. The hot chocolate was also a hit--very rich and comforting. What made the experience even better is that this is a small, newly opened woman & black-owned business, only about 4 months in, and they're already doing things right. Overall, a solid brunch spot with great vibes, good food, and excellent service. Definitely worth checking out and supporting.

There was also a beautiful mural. In terms of food, I was really excited to try both the sweet and savory crepes. There was one couple ahead of us who walked in at the same time as us, so while their order was being made, we perused the menu. There was only one employee at the shop making the crepes so their order took awhile (they waited at least 15 minutes for two crepes). We finally got to put our order in and the employee said it'll be 15 mins for what we ordered (chicken & shrooms crepe, shrimply the best crepe, and s'mores crepe). Each crepe is moderately priced but I was pleasantly surprised at how big the crepes were. However, while we were waiting for ours to be made, the couple who got their order ahead of ours came back saying there was a foreign object in their crepe and they wanted a refund because they had no time to wait for a new one to be made. The employee seemed to not be sure how to refund the order and had to make a call which made our wait even longer. It also made me a little nervous for what I'd find in my crepe - but our crepes seemed okay. The employee also forgot to make our s'mores crepe so there was more of a wait for that, but we dined in so it wasn't a huge deal. The service overall could be improved with better staff training and just more staff in general to handle orders even on what they might think is a slow day. We eventually got our crepes and the shrimp crepe was delicious and had a little spicy kick to it which i loved. It also had a little salad in there so half the crepe was cold which I didn't love but could deal with. The chicken & mushroom crepe was also fantastic and had even more flavor and a kick to it. The s'mores crepe was also a perfect sweet finisher to the meal. All things considered, I'd come back once in a blue moon, but once they add more staff and have a more efficient process, I'd come back more often for those delicious crepes.

We were headed to Amber Spice for a late lunch, and fortunately, we made it in before the 2:45pm cutoff (I called ahead to check). Since it was almost lunch closing, they did request that we place our orders soon after being seated. We already knew what we wanted to order, so we didn't feel rushed otherwise. We started with the veggie samosas ($6, two pieces), which were served with the traditional tamarind sauce and spicy cilantro chutney. The samosas were packed with the potato and pea filling and had a lightly crisp exterior. They were as good as any. For my entree, I ordered the butter chicken ($20), which is served with a side of basmati rice. When ordering, the waiter didn't ask about spice level. I did find their butter chicken to have some heat to it, but it wasn't anything crazy - I'd say a 3/10 for spiciness - I felt the warmth. The chicken was super tender and moist. I would be happy getting this again. I also ordered the garlic naan ($5), because you have to have something to sop up the curry goodness. The naan was hot and fresh; you could also taste the garlic. One basket came with four pieces (one whole naan), which is perfect for sharing. I finished the meal with the gulab jamun ($6) for dessert which came with three pieces of the fried dough balls served in a sweet syrup. My friend ordered the mango kulfi and loved it! She described it as a mango lassi, but frozen, which made it that much more light and refreshing. Amber Spice is a casual dining spot and it has the service to match. We were brought a carafe of water for the table to start, so it was self-serve the rest of the way. Food was brought out quickly and plates were cleared at the end, but we weren't checked on during the meal. Perhaps since we arrived near lunch closing, service was winding down, but we got what we needed. I enjoyed the food here and would come again. Everything that we had was not only super tasty, but also reasonably priced. There's also plenty of parking in the shopping center.
