My friend and I both ordered the shrimp and grits and they were overly good. I've never had shrimp and grits with an Alfredo-style sauce, but now I get it... I don't want it any other way. The service was just as good as the food. Our waitresses were super kind and friendly. We were seated outside on such a beautiful day but they didn't forget us. They stayed attentive and that made the whole experience even better. My only gripe was the Cinnamon Toast Crunch latte. The flavor was there, but having actual cereal in the drink wasn't my favorite once it got soggy. The texture through the straw was a little off. I think a cinnamon sugar version would've been perfect instead. But honestly, that's minor. I would definitely go back again and again and again. Such a gem!

The matchas were good, they tasted like hot chocolate lowkey, but it was made well, no complaints. The biscuits were really good! I like that you can tell it's freshly prepared: the filet was tender, and crispy. The biscuit fresh and the honey blended well with everything. The eggs were runny, the my were crispy and airy. I don't have any pics, but we'll definitely go back again!!

I visited on a weekday afternoon and even before 10am, there were other guests buzzing around this little coffee shop. Bolivar is located within a grocery shopping plaza, meaning they have tons of parking which is always great in ATL. The coffee shop itself is so beautiful! The decor, plants and art all channel Colombia, all by way of Atlanta. There were a few tables inside and outside, allowing space for those there to work, chat and lounge if desired. It was really easy for me to find a comfy seat next to an outlet to settle at for a few hours. I started with a hot latte and a Pastel conquistador and was so pleased by both. I didn't even realize that I had sped through my first cup of coffee before I was onto the next. The ladies behind the counter were helpful in sharing their favorites as I decided on my next orders across my 5 hour visit. Each order was better than the last. If you've been putting off a visit, don't wait any longer!

Been seeing a lot of buzz about Bolivar lately, so was in the area by the Smyrna location and…read moredecided to give them a try. Inside: Inside is really cute and cozy. A little on the small side with minimal seating, but they also have some patio seating at the front. However, I do believe they just opened a new location in Marietta in a much larger space. Service: No complaints about the service. Despite the busyness, I didn't stand in line for anymore than 5 - 7 minutes and probably waited less than 10 minutes for my order. Pricing: Pricing was very reasonable, with drink pricing ranging from about $4 - $8. From what I could see for food options, prices were all under $15. Food/Drinks: Regrettably, I skipped the food this time and only tried an iced matcha. They had a summer version called the Tropi Coco, which combined toasted coconut, coconut milk, and coffee or matcha. However, I don't think the Matcha version included toasted coconut, at least not the one I tried. Unfortunately, the drink didn't quite hit the mark for me. I mostly tasted coconut milk, with some Matcha flavor, but the flavors didn't blend well. Perhaps it was a matter of the ratio. My sister ordered the same drink and experienced the same issue, although hers seemed to have even less Matcha than mine. While I'm not sure I'd get the Matcha again, I'm still open to trying some other menu items. The empanadas and tasty looking Colombian treats were calling my name, so I'd like to go back and give them a try! I'd imagine if you're a coffee lover you'd want to give their Colombian coffee a try though!

You won't be disappointed.

I had no idea it was Venezuelan-owned, which I thought was really dope. I love when places incorporate their culture into the menu, and you can definitely see that reflected in some of the food options (I included a few photos in this review). I ordered a chai latte, and to my surprise, it was perfect as-is. Most of the time I feel like I have to add a sweetener, but this one didn't need anything--it was already just right. I also grabbed a couple of bites: the empanadas de pollo and the empanadas de queso--delishhhhh. Everything was fresh and flavorful. Another plus is that it's a great spot to get some work done. They offer Wi-Fi, and there's both indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating is especially my vibe, so I'll definitely be back to work and try more items on the menu. Such a great find.

The baristas there are super friendly, a good atmosphere with plenty of seating, and the coffee aroma is great! They also have a variety of baked goods. I've only tried the Biscoff crumble pound cake and it was absolutely delicious. The crumble is crunchy and paired with the not too sweet cake, it's the perfect pairing; especially after they warmed it up in the oven. Can't wait to try other pastries. I got the salted caramel latte with oatmilk (one of my favorite flavors) and apparently their most ordered. The first sip had my eyes wide open, the coffee is so smooth, the flavor profile just hits your taste buds, it was not too sweet, definitely tasted the salted caramel. Husband got his go to, an iced mocha, whole milk, and whipped cream. Super flavorful, tasted the chocolate in the espresso. Absolutely love this coffee spot!

One of my favorite weekend traditions is exploring a new coffee shop every Sunday somewhere around the city, and this week I decided to give Rev Coffee a try. While I didn't order any food, several menu items looked tempting and worth trying on a future visit. I ordered the Iced Banana Pudding Latte, and it was delicious. What stood out even more was the customer service. The staff had genuinely positive energy, and the cashier was especially helpful in sharing his thoughts on the different drinks I was considering before making my choice. As someone who enjoys writing and working from coffee shops, my only suggestion would be a larger bar-style workspace for laptops and those of us who like to stand, pace, and type while working. It wasn't a deal breaker by any means. They also don't offer a military discount, but that's fairly common and never something I expect when visiting a coffee shop. Overall, I had a great experience. The atmosphere was inviting, the coffee was enjoyable, and the staff made a strong impression. I would definitely recommend Rev Coffee, and it has earned a spot in my regular rotation of coffee shop adventures.

It tastes freshly roasted and just better quality. That being said, they clearly didn't take my recommendation at all. Hubs ran in as I was feeling off. Been that way since radiation. Oh well. Anyway, he ordered Mr. Peanut and crème brûlée (crème brûlée is my favorite dessert to the extent he made me some just last week, from scratch! I have the best husband!). If you are going to call it crème brûlée at least make it sweet like the dessert is. This always tastes like coffee and milk. Mr Peanut has an after thought of peanut. It was sweeter than the CB. lol which doesn't make much sense to me, but whatever. It was decent but again, we want to taste the flavors. Wish they would make their own syrups. I drive out of my way for good coffee shops that make their own syrups. I am in that area often so maybe next time I order differently since I have established I do like their coffee, just not the drink recipe. For that, I'm not docking them. Ambiance, same as before, busy/crowded.
