This was the first time we've tried Burney's Southport location, but we have enjoyed the croissants…read morebefore from their other locations. While visiting Oak Island, we hopped over to Southport and stopped at Burney's for a gingerbread croissant and an apple fritter. The croissant was very good, easily 4 stars, but seemed a little smaller than what we've had in the past. I got to try a bite and liked that it wasn't over-the-top sweet. The apple fritter wasn't as good. It was huge, but didn't seem totally done in the middle and the edges weren't as crisp as they could be. I threw half of it away. The apple fritter rated 2 stars. For this trip to Burney's, it's a 3-star experience. In fairness, we always think of croissants when we think of Burney's so perhaps trying an apple fritter wasn't totally fair?

Wonderful experience!!!…read more The restaurant is so cute! Very spacious, clean, fun decorations and playing country music. The ladies who work there are so nice and personable!!! They have lots of sweets available: soooo many flavors of truffles, cheese cake, a whole display of taffy (you can fill up a bag of any flavors for $10). They also have a case of ice cream. We went for breakfast. They had soooo many coffee options and so many flavors to add. They also have a case of donuts and muffins. Lots of flavors. The glaze donut was soooo good. Not cakey at all and not too sweet. Very light and flakey! We also got a muffin that was delicious- very moist! Would go back!

Before I ordered a couple ordered two drinks and one of them hot but they made the other drink hot. First they argued with the customers then they slammed the wrong drink into the trashcan. Then I ordered by drink with two flavors and cold foam. When they gave me my drink it didn't have cold foam and I said "I'm so sorry I requested cold foam" and the baristas snapped at me "no you didn't" then I looked confused and they said "well you didn't pay for it." The cold foam is a 75 cent up charge which I would have happily paid but they rang me up wrong then embarrassed me in front of the rest of the customers. I will NOT be back.
