The surface parking may be a bit tight during the day with other strip businesses open. I hit them up on the weekend late afternoon and no issue. The atmosphere was really well done and it's easy to see everything when opening the door. The bakery case will immediately stand out with lots of goodies. They utilize local Three Ships Coffee which I have enjoyed throughout the years. They have offer coffee, tea, bakery and hot meals. They have a new Fall menu to check out. The dining room was clean. The restrooms are in the rear and I did not utilize. It's a comfortable space. The staff were friendly and helpful on selections. I chose a hot honey lavender, chocolate croissant and almond croissant to go. While I waited and enjoyed people watching. A few guest were playing Chess. Within ten minutes my order was pushed out. I enjoyed my coffee in the car and was impressed. The almond croissant was delicious! My wife said the chocolate croissant was yum. Definitely don't sleep on Operation Brew.

I've been wanting to try Khoalitea for a while since it's right in my neighborhood so I was very excited to see what drinks they offered. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and couldn't help but notice the super cute tables and decor. They even had a small pool table in the back lol. Since there wasn't anyone there, we had time to scan the menu. We both decided on Organic Lemonade drinks, I chose mine with Passion Fruit & Strawberry Bursting Boba. They also offer matchas, Vietnamese coffees, fruit teas, coconut waters and slushies along with Vietnamese sandwiches and snacks. It took no time for our drinks to be made and we both enjoyed them but they were a tad bit sweet for our liking, I'm sure it was due to the added flavored syrup. They've only been open a year but I can see this place being pretty busy this Summer. I'll definitely be back to try some of the other drink options. Definitely stop in if you're in the area!

It was a bit chilly but we still enjoyed seats in their beautiful garden area. The Rwandan was served at optimal temperature and was complex and delicious! My daughter and nephews enjoyed their drinks as well. I will certainly return!

I tried the pumpkin spice latte and the chocolate smoothie bowl, and both were great choices. The smoothie bowl was made with raw cacao, peanut butter, banana, maple syrup, and almond milk, topped with dried coconut, raw oats, cinnamon, fresh banana, and cacao nibs. It was chocolatey, satisfying, and felt like the perfect treat without being too heavy. One of my favorite things about this spot is that it's more than just a cafe! They have both indoor and outdoor seating, so it's a great place to grab a drink, catch up with a friend, or spend some time relaxing. There's also a thoughtfully curated gift shop featuring both local and globally sourced artisanal finds. You can browse everything from clothing, books, and jewelry to sweet treats from My Vegan Sweet Tooth. It's the kind of place where you go in for a smoothie and end up spending extra time looking around at all the fun things they have. I love when a business offers something a little different, and this place definitely has that unique charm. Between the coffee, smoothie bowls, shopping, and cozy atmosphere, there's a little something for everyone. It would also be a great spot to find a unique gift or treat yourself to something special. Definitely worth checking out if you're at the oceanfront and want to support a local business while enjoying some good drinks, tasty treats, and a little shopping!

The line moved quickly, and while the food took a little longer to come out, it was clearly made fresh and was flavorful and worth the wait. One thing I appreciated was how dog-friendly the atmosphere is, with dogs welcome both inside and outside. The seating is very much community-style, with shared tables and a family/neighborhood feel. We didn't mind it, but if you prefer more personal space or private seating, the close quarters may not be for you. Breakfast sandwiches were reasonably priced, generally in the $13-$15 range. My only real complaint came when I watched the top of my sandwich fall off while a crew member was moving plates around. The employee picked it up and placed it back on the sandwich with their hand after touching several other items behind the counter. It wasn't enough to ruin the experience, but it did bother me and left an impression. Overall, the food was fresh and tasty, the atmosphere was lively without being too loud, and the dog-friendly environment was a nice bonus.
