This shop is young, but it is one that I have been wanting to visit since they opened. It was…read moreabsolutely worth it. Not only do they have a massive seating area with multiple varied seating options, but they have a drive thru! Probably one of the biggest and best sellers for any local shop. I tried one of their spring specials, the Blueberry Cobbler which was a latte with blueberry, brown sugar, and a cinnamon cold foam. It was so smooth and the levels were a perfect blend. They also roast all of their beans in house. Their merch was also well done with multiple shirt options, mugs, fresh beans and more. Most important, the staff were extremely friendly and so helpful. They made the experience, and I highly recommend.

The very best coffee in the area and even beyond! The brown sugar cinnamon latte is my go to, but…read moreeverything I have tried has been amazing! The staff are so kind, welcoming, and even help with recommendations. All of their flavors (except white mocha and mocha) are made in house, and not super sweet you don't even taste the flavor it is meant to be. Almost all of the food items are made there as well! The bacon cheddar scone will knock your socks off it's so good. But really I haven't had anything I didn't enjoy!! The staff really deserves more than 10 stars because I've never been treated as well as they do..... anywhere....

I only gave this place two stars because it was once a good location. When you walk in: the floor,…read morecounters, and displays are disgusting. I understand that staffing is an issue but there were FOUR TEENAGERS working. Not one of them doing a damn thing ( first cuss on a Yelp review!). Second, I asked for an extra shot and the drink already offered two. This drink tasted like a milkshake l, not one ounce of coffee. Thank God I was able to stay awake while driving. This location needs a surprise health assessment and MORE TRAINING! It's a disgrace. PS. there were three other low rankling reviews the same day as this one!! Gross. I changed it to one star in light of that.

I love Starbucks. But this location needs help. I asked for an iced coffee and for some reason she…read morerang up an iced latte.

I was a little nervous of the parking because it is a smaller shop, but I happened to luck out with…read morea front spot. I think it was because I was there at the perfect post morning rush. The location had a ton of specialty drinks and a Spring drinks menu. They also had quite a few pastry and baked goods options. While I did not try this trip, I do also give bonus points for them having matcha. It can be hit or miss at places, but the fact that they had it was definitely a win. After ordering, I took a little explore around the store. I loved the room to the side that had great lighting, books, and even some board games. Their outdoor seating under overhang was also a perfect little relax point. While not a ton of branded merch, they did have a few artsy pieces like journals, cards, watercolor sets, and some unique mugs. Lastly, special thanks to the baristas for being so nice, welcoming, and talking with me a little bit about the business. Definitely try the Banana Pancake Latte when you visit.

I was so happy to stumble upon this place. The coffee shop is in an old Texico gas station. It…read morestill has the original stained glass Texico star over the door. They have also continued with the theme inside. They have two seating areas. There are a couple of tables inside the door where you order. There's another area that has a small book library and more tables. When you walk in you are warmly greeted by the staff. They will answer any questions you have. They can also help you pick out a drink. So far their recommendations have been great. We have been to this location twice. Both times our coffee was on point. They have great flavor options. Also in case you're wondering their banana actually tastes like banana. They have dairy free options for your coffee and if you tell them how you want it they will make sure it's right. They don't put enough ice in their iced coffee for my taste but if you ask for more ice they happily oblige. If you're hungry they have you covered there. They have everything from breakfast sandwiches to cake and cookies. We have tried the cheese danish and a sausage breakfast sandwich. Both were really good. The danish was light and flaky. You could tell it was freshly made not from a package. The breakfast sandwich came on a croissant which again was freshly made, not packaged. We will be making this shop a regular stop for us.

My friend and I had a fantastic lunch at Union Jack Cafe and I can't say enough good things about…read moreour visit! The British-themed atmosphere is cozy, welcoming, and genuinely makes you want to linger longer. We arrived on a Saturday just after 11 AM and the place was already bustling...a great sign of how much the community enjoys this spot. **Food:** - I had the Traditional Burger, no bun, and they easily accommodated my request for a lettuce wrap. The burger was beautifully cooked--crispy on the edges and juicy inside, with the extra pickles I asked for. - The House Potato Salad is hands-down my favorite side here: perfectly seasoned and generously portioned. - My friend got the Fish & Chips and raved about the crispy, perfectly-cooked fish and the addictively good house-made tartar sauce with lots of dill (pickle lovers take note!). - She enjoyed her fries and iced tea, while I loved my hot tea. They serve Twinings teas, which are my favorite. My only wish was for a classic teacup and saucer (rather than a Styrofoam cup) to complete the authentic British feel. **Service and Experience:** - Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful, from accommodating special orders to promptly bringing refills on drinks and providing extra sauces with a smile. - We placed our order at the counter and our food arrived at our table piping hot and fresh, never left sitting in a window. - Although the restaurant was busy, we never felt rushed and were encouraged to sit and chat as long as we liked, which felt very authentically British. **Menu Variety:** - Union Jack has something for everyone: a wide range of burgers (like Black & Blue with blue cheese, Mushroom Swiss, Breakfast, and more), as well as sandwiches such as club and chicken, lots of fresh salads, breakfast items, baked muffins and scones, plus daily specials. - They offer both indoor and shaded outdoor seating--a lovely bonus on pleasant days. **Atmosphere:** - The location in Rainbow Plaza offers plenty of parking and the eatery is spotlessly clean inside. The warm, small-town vibe and British decor make this a cozy place to catch up with a friend or enjoy a leisurely meal. **Insider Tips:** - Try the potato salad and the fish & chips--they're local favorites for good reason. - Don't be shy about customizing your order; the staff handles special requests graciously. - If you go on a nice day, consider the shady outdoor tables for a true cafe experience. Union Jack Cafe is a true neighborhood gem with consistently delicious food, generous hospitality, and a community-focused spirit that's worth supporting. Highly recommended for anyone in Rainbow City or passing through. I'll absolutely be returning often, and encouraging everyone I know to do the same!
