I visited this cute coffee shop right after lunch. I was bummed that I was too full to even…read moresqueeze in a small drink. They had plenty of drink options. There is plenty of merchandise in the store that you may find something for yourself or as a small gift. From jewelry, coffees, teas, honey, cups etc.. There is seating throughout the shop to enjoy your drink. It really is a cozy place. You get that feeling once you walk into the place. I did purchase two little bags of coffee and bag of chocolate covered coffee beans as gifts. The service at the counter was very friendly even though it got quite busy. If I'm visiting my friends in NC again, I would want to make it a point to stop here again. I'm sure they would happily bring me here again since it is one their fave coffee spots. There is only street parking in front of the store and not too far away is a parking lot. Come give them a try!

Taste Full Beans is a longstanding staple in the small but growing town of Hickory. It is located…read moredowntown so parking can be a miss on the weekends, but it should be fine on the weekdays. The coffee house itself is quite cozy and charming inside with a lot of warm lighting. A bit small inside, but there is some seating available. There are a lot of items on their menu, especially for the coffees and teas. I thought the service was friendly and efficient. I got the Vietnamese Iced Coffee and the Egg & Cheese Sandwich. I knew when I saw how pale the Vietnamese Iced Coffee looked that it was not going to be typical, haha. It definitely tastes sweeter than usual and not very strong at all, and the latter is what Vietnamese Iced Coffee is known for. I did not mind the sweeter taste too much although I wish it was a bit stronger and darker (in color). As for the Egg & Cheese Sandwich, I got it on a croissant which was flaky. While the eggs were quite fluffy, I felt like they needed some salt and pepper although perhaps I was supposed to add that on my own. I think I would rate Taste Full Beans a 3.75/5 stars if I could. The drink and food I got were just alright. I would come back and try the other items on their vast menu!

They had a wide variety of options and tons of seating options! The place is decorated in an inviting and cozy manner. I ordered the sweater weather winter coffee special. I got mine with oatmilk. Costs are comparable to Starbucks but the quality was way better AND it came with a delicious chocolate covered coffee bean. What a wonderful little coffee shop!

The lemon possum tail needed just a little more lemon flavor but otherwise the filling was very good and not greasy which I've had happen at other places before. The cherry napoleon needed a little something to brighten it up but was still pretty good. It was very quiet when we went on a Saturday afternoon but I have no complaints. There's some seating if you want to sit and get a coffee. Overall pretty nice.
