    Coffee provides guilt free liquid motivation, fuel during these crazy COVID times. Though I'm not a 'bucks buyer, wifey drinks their koolaid er bean brews. Visited recently to redeem my birthday reward, my wife the beneficiary. Started to order via app, ironically after leaving Planet Fitness; decided I wanted to finalize in store to firm up sugar details. 0 issues, $7 drink (extra shot) for FREE! I went inside to pickup and waited what felt like an above average amount of time considering no one else was waiting. But hey, FREE! Drink was made correctly, just how my wife likes it: venti iced caramel macchiato with extra espresso shot, nonfat milk and light whipped cream. Note, dine in is prohibited and you will need a mask to enter based on current health policy.

    They are always super friendly at this location. However I do not like the design of the drive-through. To me it appears that the driveway was designed with the idea of people not leaving the line. Sometimes when the line is very long I must admit I do tend to change my mind and leave. Mainly because I'm on a time crunch and think I can get through it very quickly. These days I haven't got through any Starbucks location very quickly.

    Yeah the shepherd is pretty extra and sounds like her leg is being amputated when we pull up...until the convented pup cup comes through the window then...silence. Sometimes it's hit and miss with the friendliness but its noteably improving with new, eager staff. It was pretty rough since the workers seemed really unhappy about 8mos ago, likely due to extremely short staffing. This location is by the base and not for the faint of heart when it comes to being a barista. Muy muy busy and the drive thru angers people when they realize they can't get out of the line if it takes too long. Be patient or plan to go inside if you're not so much that type However, definitely improving a lot and back on its way to being a quicker place with happier workers.

    Wow! COVA Brewing it's been so long and finally! I frequent the area and feel bad I've neglected…read morethis awesome Norfolk establishment for so long. This review actually has two great businesses because I visited Klassic Doughnut's food truck too! Ok first things first. Every Wednesday through this Summer Klassic Doughnuts food stand will be available at COVA 8-11 AM. They are in my opinion the best cake doughnuts in our area. They are a major draw for COVA. I purchased a few to go. With COVA I specifically wanted to try their coffee. I was blown away upon arrival to see their outdoor space. It's huge and beautiful. On a weekday at 11 AM without school even out was busy! The counter service was helpful and friendly. I told the staff I wanted a black coffee and was directed to what beans were being offered. I opted for an Ethiopian pour over. The coffee comes in a large and priced competitive. It took a bit with being busy and a pour over, but boy was the wait worth it. Probably the best coffee I've had in any recent memory and I drink a lot of coffee. The space inside is compact, but they offer a side patio that's covered too! COVA is late to offering coffee, maybe 5 years or so. However, they are established with brewing award winning beer. I chatted with a female brewer a minute who was so sweet and invited me back for a glass. They also have a bakery case with offerings that looked good. So I need to return. So exciting to share such a gem in East Beach. Parking may be an issue, but off street neighborhood streets are available.

    I wanted a place I could go and have coffee but also just enjoy outside, and Cova is exactly that!…read moreWhile they are a brewing company, during the day, they sell coffee and lattes. I like that while it is in Norfolk technically, it is super close to where I live in Virginia Beach. We tried their seasonal blueberry crumble latte and also had their Irish coffee. Both were very good ! I will say, they do not have a liquor license, so the Irish coffee does not come with Whiskey. Perfectly fine with me but wanted to set the expectation! I also tried their seasonal blueberry sweet cream and ohhh my goodness I wish I could buy a some to take home. So fresh, so good! The staff was super nice, and the outside area is a huge space with a variety of seating arrangements. It was a chillier morning and I do wish the fire pits were going but otherwise, super great, relaxing place to be! I really enjoyed my morning with my sister thanks to Cova!

    One thing I love about Apelu Island is that it's not just "another cute coffee shop" that are a…read moredime a dozen. It's Samoan-owned and you can feel the culture in the space and on the menu. The decor has Polynesian touches, the drinks and food nod to Samoan flavors (like taro and Spam musubi), and you can tell it's a true family business built with a lot of pride and hard work. My friend and I first heard about this spot and literally drove about 25 minutes from Ghent Norfolk over to Bel-Aire Norfolk just to try it out, and it still remains one of our favorite coffee shops in Norfolk. Totally worth crossing town for. On my first visit, I got the Apelu Island Iced Latte, a Taro Cupcake with vanilla icing and toasted coconut, and a Spam Musubi with egg. That combo right there? Dangerous. The latte was smooth and lightly sweet with that pretty taro purple, the cupcake was super moist with the coconut giving it that little crunch on top, and the Spam Musubi with egg was the perfect salty-savory bite to go with my coffee instead of the usual basic breakfast sandwich. Second visit, I pulled back up for their Taro Pumpkin Roll Latte with oat milk (one of their fall specials), and I'm still thinking about it. It tasted like fall but with that island twist; cozy, a little earthy from the taro, and not overly sweet. Just really well-balanced and comforting. The staff has been warm and welcoming every time I've gone in; smiling, chatting with customers, and making it feel like a neighborhood spot even if you drove in from across town. It's the kind of place where you can sit, catch up with a friend, get some work done, or just enjoy your drink and snack without feeling rushed. If you're anywhere in Norfolk and haven't tried Apelu Island Cafe yet, go. From the lattes to the taro treats to the musubi, it's one of those places that makes you want to become a regular. More people need to know about this place.
