On our way from home to Busch Gardens, we decided to stop at Lunar Coffee for a quick coffee break…read more We found parking right outside the coffee shop and went straight to the counter to order our coffee. After looking at the menu, we ordered a Matcha Latte and a Double Espresso. The matcha latte was expertly prepared and absolutely delicious, tailored perfectly to my spouse liking. My spouse, who is a big fan of matcha lattes, also thoroughly enjoyed it. The double espresso was also well-made, featuring an excellent espresso shot. Lunar Coffee served as an excellent coffee shop for us, offering us wonderful beverages before our trip to Busch Gardens.

I really wanted to like the matcha here, but it fell short for me. The drink tasted mostly like…read moremilk with only a thin layer strawberry, couldn't taste the distinct smooth matcha flavor I was hoping for. The cups also seemed quite small for $8 I'd guess around 12 oz, which feels smaller than what most shops offer. On the positive side, the service was okay, and the location has plenty of convenient parking. I can't speak for their coffee or other menu items, so those may be worth trying. Unfortunately, based on the matcha alone, I don't think I'd order it again.

You'd never guess busy Fowler Avenue and all those shiny new businesses are just steps away. This is free-spirited, relaxing and zen. You can study here, chill-out and reset. It's colorful and very sunny, but it would also be the snuggliest place to sit while it's raining and just sip away and read. There are so many drink and food options here. I had the pistachio matcha with strawberry cold foam and a spinach/feta pastry. Both were good choices. You can order at the register or from a QR code and they'll call you to come get it. It's so casual and laid back. This adorable hangout would melt away any work frazzles I could possible walk in with. I love the low ceilings and the vintage hardwood floors and the slouchy couch and the eastern light streaming in the front window of this older, repurposed home. There's original artwork everywhere, including the ceiling (some of it's for sale). There's also a rack of clothing items, jewelry, scrunchies and other items for sale. I love the eclectic vibe-and the guitar propped up by the front window. Phoebe could definitely sing "Smelly Cat" here. Heck, they're so welcoming here, Ross could probably set up his keyboard and share "the sound." They DO have live music here-and a side patio. There's some parking up front and extra parking in back. And the service is friendly. I'm so glad I found this spot. I'll be back to try the apple fritter croissant and soak up more relaxation. Happy days from Felicitous!

Well they did and boy am I glad they did because I LOVE Kalesia and loved having the chance to show it to new people. I was just afraid there'd be too many of us. But I got super lucky and there was a large open table. Everyone really enjoyed their drinks. They all got the fancy blends but I'm perfectly happy with my "teatannic" (the largest size and that name cracks me up) Moroccan Mint. So refreshing iced. This is a delightful, cozy, Asian themed café. There are a few food options like bahn mi and rice bowls and tons of tea and a few latte options. The service is always so friendly and I always see little groups hanging out and chatting and individuals doing some studying or working. They even have a gorgeous quiet room, set up to take your shoes off and sit comfortably on the floor and study or write or work in peace. I could definitely see bringing my laptop and working on a novel with a delicious, comforting tea. I haven't tried the food yet because every time I come here it's either right before or right after dinner plans, but it looks and smells SO good and my time is coming!

Kyleigh was our server and was very attentive to our needs. I loved the patent drawings/ steampunk style wall art and shelving . Looks like they have something going on nearly everyday. I'm sure we'll be back!

The staff is knowledgeable but not friendly. Usually all of their desserts, while expensive, are pretty good but their newest scoopable cookie sundae was AWFUL. Like so bad where I am taking a star off. It was literally a crushed up already baked cookie that they microwaved and put a scoop of basic ice cream on top. It looked nothing like advertised and will go down as one of the biggest let downs I've ever had. The cookie is supposed to be pretty much raw, not fully baked... So if you want to try the latest and greatest dubai trends and pay a premium for other viral desserts, Roasted is your place. I for sure will come back for Turkish delights but that's probably it. Ps, skip that cookie sundae unless they get their act together!

First time visiting this Provisions Coffee location and I really loved it! I came in pretty early…read moreand was one of the first customers and the service was quick and friendly. There's plenty of seating, and their menu is pretty big so there's definitely something for everyone. I got the Fruity Pebbles latte, the new orange matcha, and a pop tart. The latte was easily a 5/5 for me, it was so good! The matcha was more of a 4/5 just because it was on the sweeter and milkier side. The pop tart was AMAZING though! My husband got the potatoes and hash brown breakfast bowl and while I didn't try it myself, he absolutely loved it. Overall, I really enjoyed this location and would definitely come back!

We had a decaf mocha and seasonal matcha. The drinks were very mediocre unfortunately. Earth day matcha was cold (which I didn't know) and thy were able to make it hot after I received it. Even then it was way too sweet and I could only have a few sips. Mocha decaf didn't have a nice quality to it, didn't seem like they use good decaf beans. So everything except the drinks was great.

The employees there are always so nice and helpful, their cafe has great drinks and treats (my personal favorite is their rose chai with pistachio milk, have to buy it every time) they are my local book store so it's very convenient if I want to add more books to my tbr corner . The only downside is they don't have all the books in the world, the books and music that are available are the only ones available. But that's totally fine because you can always browse and discover more authors and genres that they have available. 11/10 will recommend this place, it's like my very own heaven. AND TIP YOUR BARISTAS!!!

Air-conditioned! Thankfully, considering the intense heat on this side of FL…read more Good stock - a good selection of new and used books and vinyl. Definitely have everything a new collector might want but may not have the deep cuts a long-time collector (like me) would be looking to purchase. Prices - a tad high. But I expected that considering I'm in a metropolitan area. Their rent is probably super high, but I don't mind paying an extra $2-3 per book to keep an independent store open. Regarding those deep cuts: - I did find some authors that I think are often overlooked, including Richard K. Morgan, Chuck Tingle, and Ann Leckie. - I was saddened to see that there was no Ronald Malfi in stock, which I find to be a mainstay in horror. - There was no Between the Buried and Me vinyl in stock, which saddens me due to concert tonight (that's why I drove all the way to this coast). Rating - 4.2/5.0

You grab a tray and a pair of tongs and make your way through the bakery, with separate glass display cases for the sweet and savory pastries. You just pick whatever looks good -- which is dangerous because everything looks good! First of all, the prices are fantastic. Most of the buns are under $4. My absolute favorite was the ham and cheese bun. The bun is slightly sweet and the ham and cheese are savory, and the combination is SO good. The blueberry bun was another favorite -- it almost had a blueberry cheesecake flavor. We also tried the curry bun, which was delicious. We ordered several of the hot items too. The har gow (shrimp dumplings) were outstanding. They have a delicate steamed wrapper filled with plump, juicy shrimp, and these were honestly some of the best I've ever had. I've eaten in multiple restaurants in Chinatown in both Los Angeles and San Francisco, so that's saying a lot! The Shanghai dumplings, which are little soup dumplings filled with meat and broth, were also delicious. We also tried the steamed pork ribs. The flavor was very good, but steamed pork has a different appearance and there were some fatty pieces. I'm glad we tried them, but they're probably the one thing I wouldn't order again. Another huge plus was the pricing on the hot food -- every hot entrée we looked at was under $10. Between the two of us, we ordered seven different things, couldn't even finish everything, and our entire check was only $46. Great quality, great variety, and an incredible value. I will definitely be back. I was going to say I wish there were one closer to us...but maybe it's a good thing there isn't, because I would probably eat those ham and cheese buns every day! Five stars!

Extremely disappointing customer service, especially from the manager…read more I placed an order for two milk tea drinks at 1:24 PM. While waiting, I watched another customer receive her drinks even though I was already ahead of her by approximately four customers in line. At 1:32 PM, I approached the gentleman at the counter to ask about my order. He did not greet me or acknowledge me. He looked at my receipt, looked at his watch, and dismissively said, "It's not even 10 minutes." He then asked me, "What do you want to do?" When I asked what he meant, he told me I could either wait or get my money back. He checked in the back and came back telling me it would be another five minutes. I agreed to wait. Five minutes later, instead of simply addressing the delay or apologizing, he told me I could grab a bun while I waited. I explained that I already had a bun and that, considering the inconvenience and the way the situation was handled, I felt a discount would have been an appropriate gesture. Instead, he offered to refund my money and gave me another receipt without the drinks. The most disappointing part was Norman, the manager. At no point did he apologize, acknowledge the inconvenience, or make any genuine effort to resolve the situation professionally. As a manager, I expected him to step in, listen to the customer, and demonstrate some level of courtesy and accountability. Instead, his attitude left me with the very clear impression that he simply did not care whether he had my business or not. I completely understand that a bakery can get busy and that orders can sometimes take longer than expected. The issue wasn't simply the wait--it was the attitude and the complete lack of customer service. A simple apology and a professional response could have completely changed the experience. Unfortunately, I left feeling dismissed and unappreciated as a customer. Management should understand that customers remember how they are treated, especially when something goes wrong. I will not be returning, and I hope the owners take this feedback seriously and address how customers are being treated by management.

Apparently, the Dapper Doughnuts-Tampa location is now permanently closed…read more This comes as a shock since Dapper Doughnuts offers an interesting take and concept on the leavened fried dough. Considering myself to be a doughnut connoisseur of sorts, the idea of mini doughnuts has always presented itself in a playful and "not-to-be-taken seriously" manner. What I mean is that I feel you get more enjoyment-per-bite capita with the larger donuts based on the available surface area and fried dough real estate. Dapper Doughnuts appears to capture the spirit of Ed Anderson and Lil' Orbits, reenergizing Hostess Donettes, while bringing the Duck Donuts production line into the fold. The end product is a freshly made and customized mini-doughnut that melts in your mouth, proving that the mini-doughnut can stand its ground amongst its giant cousins. Their menu boasted a healthy selection of doughnut varietals, while offering drinks to pair. There were definitely some favorites amongst these gourmet doughnuts, but all-in-all they were all reliable when it came to tastes and satisfaction. I feel that I was finally able to write this review after going to Dapper Doughtnuts a couple of times - unfortunately, it seems that it has come a bit too late. Dapper Doughnuts sits in the University Collection plaza along Fowler Avenue, which is a convenient location for various retail stores and restaurants. Best wishes to the future of the company, and hopefully they can make their return to the larger doughnut market!
