It was chilly outside so they even offered to bring our daughter a blanket if she got cold. Excellent service! I had their Brunch Pizza: Still thinking about this one! The spicy sausage and banana peppers were delicious! We also had their special which was their Blueberry Pancakes: PHENOMENAL!!! The blueberry sauce was delicious and the pancakes were crusty slightly crispy on the edges and super soft. Definitely a must-try if they have them as a special. The Japanese-style fluffy pancake was the one I was MOST excited to try, but it wasn't quite what I expected! It was denser and less sweet than I imagined. That said, it was cooked perfectly -- I think it just comes down to personal preference! If you love a less-sweet, soufflé-style pancake, you will love this!

Char on Ashland is a must-visit in Lexington! We tried five items and here's the honest breakdown:…read more The Cinnamon Bun is a 10/10 -- hands down the star of the visit. It's enormous (easily shareable between 6+ people) and absolutely delicious. The Sourdough Breakfast Sandwich was a close second at 9/10, a great classic executed really well. The Banana Bread Latte was an 8/10 -- very good but ask for it less sweet. The Iced Cinnamon Bun Latte and Eggs in Heaven both landed at 6/10. The latte sounds incredible on paper but the cinnamon bun flavor didn't quite come through, and while the Eggs in Heaven dish itself is a good concept, my eggs were unfortunately not cooked to my liking. We really enjoyed sitting outside and enjoying our breakfast! Service was good, a little slow but they were very friendly! Overall a great spot with a lot of potential -- the pastry alone is worth the trip. Will definitely be back to try more of the menu!

The coffee was wonderful and I'm excited to come back and try more things. The donuts were ok, but a little cakey. I'd probably get one again but it wasn't as fluffy as I was hoping.

We shared a slice of Martine's Pastry double chocolate cake and wow, it was divine, so rich, fudgy, and absolutely worth the indulgence. The variety of coffee choices was seriously next level! We shared a cup of their decaf espresso and it was smooth, bold, and perfectly balanced. Definitely a spot we'll be revisiting. The staff was friendly and accommodating, and explained how their process worked. Very neat spot.

In addition to coffee, there was an incredible array of teas available as well both for drinking and purchase. The interior space was incredible, large and expansive while maintaining cozy and inviting vibes. Seating options were plentiful, great for studying, hanging out with friends, or even just quickly sitting down to enjoy a cup and snack. The shop area was also quite nice with so many coffee and tea options from all over available fresh as well as various trinkets and jsut fun goodies available for purchase, all at quite honestly some fair prices. Was great for perusing through while sipping on a fantastic cup. The staff were all incredibly friendly, but one area that needed some improvement was just how slow everything was. Not sure where the choke was but the line just refused to move despite not even being that long, and it kept doing this. This was not only at the coffee counter too, even at the store counter at first there was just nobody behind it for quite some time as a line formed and we all just looked around for a worker. And then finally one meandered on up, and while e they were kind and friendly, the service was just oh so slow which was quite frustrating. Besides the slow service though I will say it is a fantastic little spot. Unassuming on the outside but once you walk through the doors such an incredible space full of coffee, tea, and so much fun. Would def recommend (just not if in a rush) and will likely return!

Not only do they have an amazing selection of coffee, espresso, and tea, but their food menu is fantastic too. The seating areas are adorable, and they have the cutest gifts and items for purchase. It's the perfect spot for breakfast, lunch, or even a drink at the bar, but it's also great if you just want to grab a latte to go and do a little shopping. If you visit when the butterflies are in season, make sure to take a stroll to the butterfly house on the side of the building - it's a small, peaceful getaway. Sometimes they even have moths in a cage inside the store, which is always interesting to see. I've been to hundreds of coffee shops across the country, and this is truly my favorite of all - and it just happens to be right next to my neighborhood.

It was so good that I can confidently say it will forever change your expectations of a breakfast biscuit. It was also perfect for a brunch picnic. We picked ours up before heading out for a hike, and it gave us exactly the fuel we needed for a full day of adventures around Lexington. Everything was satisfying, filling, and delicious. I would definitely recommend Beau's Cafe to anyone visiting Lexington. It is the kind of place you will want to return to, especially before a day outdoors. The breakfast biscuit alone is worth the visit! Buttery and flakey, something you definitely don't want to miss.

Extremely friendly service from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave. We were seated rather fast, but their seats can be uncomfortable. The inside is beautiful! So clean, so modern... wish they were bigger. The music can be a bit loud but nothing crazy. Plenty of parking space. My husband and I ordered the burrito and potatoes each... you'd think assembling a burrito doesn't take too long... well, it took about 50 min for our food. Side note, I thought the server said potatoES (you'd think chopped potato pieces)... well, it's not. It's more of a fried potato cake... it was too greasy for me to eat unfortunately so just a PSA as others have warned. And as soon as we took a bite, the server came and dropped off the check. I get that they were busy but we had just started eating. Overall, they were busy so I'll give them some grace. 8/10, I will try to be back soon.
