Why is this place rated so highly?…read more The drinks were ok. Their coffee and espresso aren't great, but it isn't bad either. They have a large menu and a lot of baked goods. Service is definitely slow. It was a long wait just to get a plain latte despite no one being ahead of me. The physical place is disgusting. There are coffee splatters on the walls, dust and dirt piled up in every corner, and every table and area was sticky. I felt like I needed to go home and take a shower after sitting there for a few hours with some friends. They need to take some pride in the place and clean it. It's not the kind of place that you absolutely need to avoid, but I would drive to a surrounding small town's coffee shop before I would ever go back to Cool Beanz.

Barista and cashier were both very sweet and pleasant! Barista was rocking some darling cool and vining art nails today, which I made sure to compliment her on them. We had the sausage egg and potato burrito which my hubby and I split in half. They did a nice job warming it up in their oven. Two hot vanilla Almond lattes. And we even made a new friend, a vibrant little 3year old girl that was singing. The cutest thing I've seen all day! This place is always a pleasant experience.

My wife has tried their brown sugar cardamom and she really enjoys it, she loves teas so it works for her, I didn't care much for it. Also their lavender home made cookies are tasty and a delightful treat!

The Yemen coffee was so good! The quality of the latte, for an affordable price compared to other…read moreYemen coffee shops was worth it! The staff were very friendly and helped me decide on a drink. I recommend the Socotra latte if it's your first time as it is their signature drink and reminds me of a gingerbread latte. This is a great place to study or hangout with friends. There's plenty of space and very comfortable seating! There's great history in their art hung and I loved learning more about the culture while I was there too!

My friend and I came here late at night to try the lattes. He ordered the toffee nut latte, and I…read moreordered the pistachio latte. The toffee nut latte was definitely sweeter. It had a rich, warm mix of hazelnut and caramel. The espresso was strong enough to stand out and blended perfectly with the toffee-nut flavor. The pistachio latte was more subtle. It tasted like a classic latte with a gentle, nutty hint of pistachio. Service was great. They brought out our drinks within 10 minutes and were very friendly. The ambiance was also a highlight, with groups of friends and young adults enjoying their Friday night. Great spot to gather with friends after a dinner. Overall: 9 out of 10. Would definitely come back.

We both got the Iced Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso and loved them! I could definitely taste the brown sugar and appreciated the right amount of ice and smooth espresso. It wasn't too strong and had the perfect sweet flavor. The staff was kind and our drinks came out quickly! The atmosphere was clean and there were plenty of seats if we had wanted to stay and chat or do work. I always appreciate having a variety of seating options. There are fabric benches that aren't pictured where we sat while we waited that were cozy. This elevated our hike and I will definitely be coming back!

Fresh Start Coffee House is... perfect. From the aesthetic charm to the mission, this quaint…read morelittle coffee house is a must! On a foggy Saturday morning, heading South (I-75), we decided we should stop for some coffee. Unfamiliar with Monroe and wanting something other than gas station coffee, I found Fresh Start Coffee House. It's less than a mile off of the highway and worth the deviation. This unique little shop offers artisan coffee, inspired food and conversation. Paula and Vic, who own the shop engaged us as soon as we walked in. They offered recommendations and were genuinely polite. They told us that they employ people who are in recovery, re-entry and with special needs. Their space is available for church groups, community organizations and other community meetings. They also feature live bands on occasion. The coffee was amazing. We both got "Paula's Perfect", although we'll be back to try others we wanted. We got the carrot/berry (Morning Glory) muffin and it was delicious. The ambiance was fun, clean and well designed. The prices were fair and well worth the support of their mission. They also sell merchandise, art and other trinkets. If you are passing through, do yourself a favor and check Fresh Start Coffee House out. It's a hidden gem in Monroe, and a new regular stop for us.
