I spent six months deployed…read morein the Middle East and absolutely loved the coffee and pastries there, so I was really excited to see what this place had to offer. Best decision ever! I got the Korean-style coffee and a Dubai chocolate croissant, and both were delicious. The croissant was HUGE and I couldn't even finish it, so the value is definitely there. I'm already excited to go back and try the strawberries and cream croissant and the Biscoff latte. The guy at the register was so nice! They also offer curbside pickup, which is super convenient, although I chose to go inside because I wanted to check the place out. It's spacious, nicely decorated, and has a great atmosphere. I could definitely see myself meeting up with friends here. I live in Chicago but visit the area often to see family, so this will absolutely be a staple whenever I'm in town!

The nutty aroma from the ube hit my senses before I even took a sip, and the first taste was everything. I've had a lot of different matchas and love them all for different reasons, but this one is easily in my top favorites. The pistachio croissant was super flaky and filled with pistachio, which made it the perfect pairing with the drink. Really nice spot to relax, grab a drink, and enjoy a pastry.

    I'm a coffee lover, so I was intrigued by this spot. The decor is... a lot. Very dog‑themed: dog…read morephotos, dog pins, dog merch. Not my style, but if you're obsessed with dogs, you'll probably think it's adorable. My boyfriend and I went together. He loved the barista's nonchalant vibe. Me, not so much. I don't need a parade when I walk in, but a simple smile goes a long way. Price-wise, the coffee is fair. I wouldn't pay a cent more. I got Kirby's signature mocha iced (regular). It was fine...nothing special. My boyfriend got the same thing hot and enjoyed it, but he's a simple guy. I'm... not. So here's the bottom line: If you're looking for coffee that's innovative, unique, or memorable, this isn't the place. If you want a cute, simple mom‑and‑pop shop with reliable coffee that won't hit you with Starbucks prices, it'll do the job. One more thing: my boyfriend bought a chocolate cookie that was labeled as a chocolate chip pound cake, which turned out to be a brownie. The disorganization matches the overall vibe. But hey, happy coffee hunting

I wanted a place that was cozy, good coffee drinks and not too busy so I could work. Lazy Labrador Coffee was perfect. It's right off of downtown Kennesaw and has lots of room to sit inside or outside. Upon parking behind the shop, there's a garden area with cornhole, benches, tables and the porch has seating too. Inside there's a sitting area by the fireplace and tables. There's plenty of tables and even upstairs. The counter is straight ahead with a menu and lots of drink specials. There's not too much to eat other than pastries so don't come too hungry. I tried a scone and a large iced blueberry matcha. The drink was a good balance of sweet and the nutty flavor of the green tea. The scone wasn't memorable but hit the spot because I was hungry. I was able to get in a few hours of work as the place gets busy. Other patrons are courteous to take their conversations and busy toddlers outside. There's free WiFi, three unisex restrooms and the jazz playing was the right volume to set the tone. I definitely recommend and I'll be back to try more low caffeine beverages.

I can see parking being an issue on days that all of the businesses are open. However, I arrived close to closing time and had no problem parking directly in front of the shop. When I entered I immediately appreciated the decor. It gives tropical rainforest vibes! When I appreciated the counter I was greeted. There were two staff present. The gentleman appears to be a more seasoned employee and the female appeared to be in training. After looking at the menu I opted for a pistachio latte with oat milk and empanadas. I was told that they would be closing shortly. I believe I had about 30 min prior to closing time. This was more than enjoy time for me to drink a drink and eat my food. As such, I opted to dine in. The empanadas came out first. They were not my style. The pastry part was more like a corn bread consistency. I am accustomed to to emphasis being more of a dough like consistency. Additionally they tasted like something you just pull out the freezer and warm up. I would not order them again. When the drink arrived I had to confirm it was pistachio because I saw chocolate everywhere. The staff immediately recalled that I did not want whole milk and told me he had to re- make my drink. When it arrived for the second time the presentation was the same- it looked like a chocolate drink and not pistachio. When I took a sip I was shocked to find chunks of pistachios in the drink. I had to drink and eat the drink- interesting concept. I will say that the coffee taste on its own may be okay- however, collectively I was not a fan of this drink. Overall I do not have the best experience with the food or drink from this spot. I do give kudos for the ambiance and the service!

They had checkers, UNO, Trouble, tic tac toe, battleship and much more. They have a pretty cool menu of drinks, boba/jellies, and food items. All of the staff members were very nice. I tried the Thai tea (regular) but wasn't a huge fan. It wasn't sweet like I'm used to. My husband tried the dirty Thai tea (includes cold brew coffee) with coffee jellies. He said it was ok. I thought it was an interesting mix but I wouldn't order it for myself. My son tried the MLK Way drink - wow! Very good! If you're a chocolate lover, you will enjoy this one! Great consistency.

The menu was large and had a wide array of hot and cold selections as well as cheese toppings and Boba. They had a small selection of muffins as well. The playlist was 90s pop and rock and there was a stack of board games for public use. A handful of tables line the wall. It's a relatively small space and there is a flat screen TV mounted in the corner. The tea ended up being okay. It was pre-sweetened. I was hoping for more zing, like the elderberry tea I've had at farmers markets, but it was still good enough to warm me up. All in all, it was nice to support a local business. Maybe next time I'll try a cold drink. Wear: a sunflower shirt and jelly bracelets Listen to: Cranberries-Zombie
