We're all vegetarian and they do have some options but from our experience the sandwiches are so dry. Even the grilled cheese was dry and not very flavorful - seemed like dry bread and some cheese - no oil or butter or anything. Also, they don't keep ingredients in stock for some items - tried to order the veggie panini twice on different occasions only to be told they didn't have the veggies to make it. Wasn't impressed with the expensive latte either. :-/

The space itself is really cute, welcoming, and has a cozy atmosphere, so I was excited to see what the coffee had to offer. Unfortunately, the coffee was pretty underwhelming, especially for the price. Having tried coffee shops throughout DC, Northern Virginia, and Montgomery County, I'm used to paying similar prices for specialty coffee. Here, the pricing was on par with those areas, but the coffee itself didn't justify the cost. I really wanted to like this spot because it's convenient and has a great aesthetic, but the coffee just didn't live up to my expectations.

Coco & Friends is a delightful cafe & bakery. I've ridden past Coco & Friends many times, so it was…read morenice to finally try it out. As soon as you walk in, you are surrounded by warm tones and a calm, relaxing atmosphere. It's pretty quiet, so it would be a great place to study or work, with plenty of seating and electrical outlets available The staff were friendly and helpful, answering any questions I had. They have a pretty good selection of drinks as well as sandwiches, pizzas, pastries and various bread items. I selected an iced Coco's London Earl Grey Milk Tea (a London Fog) and an egg & cheese breakfast sandwich on fresh-baked ciabatta. The staff told us that all of the sourdough-based breads are baked on the premises daily, and it shows. The ciabatta was soft, airy and delicious. I really enjoyed the Earl Grey Milk tea. All in all, this is a wonderful new addition to the Hagerstown area, and I hope it continues to grow and flourish in the future.

The staff was incredibly kind and welcoming, and I loved that they're dog-friendly. We sat outside on the patio, and they even brought our food right to the table.

It's the perfect little spot to relax, enjoy a great breakfast, and spend time with your four-legged best friend.

Beans & Bagels is a cozy breakfast spot in downtown Frederick with dog friendly outdoor seating…read more One thing that stood out was the service. We chose to sit outside, and the staff brought our food directly to our table as soon as it was ready and the food arrived in a timely manner. They offer a wide variety of bagels. we ordered the smoked lox bagel on a jalapeño bagel and the chicken salad on a sun dried tomato bagel. The chicken salad sandwich was a bit dry. Looking back, I regret not paying the extra 50 cents for lettuce. I also didn't get much sun dried tomato flavor from the bagel itself. The smoked lox bagel was good, but not the best I've had. The sandwich felt a little sloppy and unevenly assembled, with some bites getting much more of certain ingredients than others. The drinks were probably the biggest disappointment. I originally wanted an iced tea, but they only offered regular unsweetened iced tea. As someone who typically enjoys green tea or jasmine tea, I found the cold tea selection pretty limited unless you're ordering hot tea. The iced coffee also had a strange aftertaste that reminded me of charcoal. In addition, the iced drinks were served in hot coffee cups, which felt a little odd. There was also no simple syrup or agave available.

I've tried the cinnamon roll (5$), ganache brownie (5$), chocolate chip cookie (1.50$), bunny trail brownie (carrot cheesecake layered brownie) (5$), and carrot cake whoopie (5.25$). The cinnamon roll was easily my favorite item. The cinnamon roll was pretty good with a good amount of icing and it's even better warmed up. The ganache brownie was the best brownie I had and warming it up is how it should always be eaten. The chocolate chip cookie is good but it needs to be warmed up to achieve the best taste. The bunny trail brownie (carrot cheesecake brownie) was very creative but it was just alright. The carrot cake whoopie was okay but it didn't really have the carrot cake flavor I was expecting, it tasted more like a spice cake which wasn't for me and I wouldn't get it again. All in all, i would definitely return and recommend the buzz.

The converted church space gives it real character, and the atmosphere is warm without trying too hard. The staff were friendly, quick to engage, and kept things moving even with a steady crowd. Bonus: live local musicians doing a pick up session! Food and coffee both landed well. Vegetarian friendly, fresh, balanced, and clearly made with care. It's the kind of spot where you can settle in for a quiet hour, meet someone for a casual lunch, or for C&O cyclists, refuel with a solid drink and good service.

This spot is located in the "city center" of Brunswick. Parking is plentiful, and I got a spot a block up. I had a schedule to keep, so I just got an iced coffee to go, but I loved taking in the decor of the place. It was a sunny day and the light was streaming through the stained glass windows. There is a food menu and some baked goods, though I didn't get anything to eat. There are also cute little stickers, magnets, keychains etc. advertising the area and the C&O towpath that a lot of bikers like to ride. If I lived nearby, this would definitely be a regular place to meet up with friends. It's a really unique spot!
