Great local ice cream / fro-yo place! They have both soft serve and hand scooped ice cream, plus a…read morewide variety of toppings. The soft serve / fro-yo flavors are a little odd, in my opinion. There are more "unique" flavors and less of the classics I generally gravitate toward. But they let you weigh hand scooped + toppings the same as you would fro-yo, so the addition of that variety makes up for it. There are a handful of both indoor and outdoor tables, all kept relatively clean (not sticky!!). They don't let you get your own samples (the person behind the counter will come out and get it for you), which some people might not like, but I appreciate because it is more sanitary. Prices are pretty on par with other places, and they have the price-by-weight posted on the wall. I appreciate the transparency.

We're lucky to have this shop in town, with a huge selection of fresh hand scoop ice creams served in everything from the standard sugar cone, to waffle cones and bowls, as a taco, milkshakes, and sundaes. They also have a small coffee selection. With extremely friendly staff, dozens of flavors to choose from, this really has everything you need in an ice cream shop. You can come here and get a completely different creation every single visit. And if you're indecisive, they offer a "surprise me" option with my kids personally love. There's a small amount of inside seating, and a bench outside if you want to enjoy it in the heat.

It is definitely a step above any rental space I've ever used. You can see the incredible attention to detail in every corner. They've managed to beautifully combine comfort, function, and style into a wonderful space that's the perfect size for a gathering. The Colonial Grind staff were also absolutely wonderful. They were so attentive to our party, making sure we had everything we needed and checking on us throughout our event without ever being intrusive. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful or welcoming place to celebrate. Highly recommend Colonial Grind for your next gathering!

Normally I don't go back and update my positive reviews, but because I've eaten at the Chat and…read moreChew a disproportionate number of times compared to everything else I've reviewed lately, I felt a 1 year (well, 8 months) revisit might be warranted. As before, I give this a resounding 5 stars. The menu has changed a little bit since I last wrote a review, and I've tried some new items. I have yet to try anything that I didn't like. My new go-tos are the raging chicken salad on a croissant and the berries and cream pastries. If you read my previous review, you will see that I was working up the nerve to try the chicken salad, because I'm somewhat meat-averse at times, and also don't like heavily mayonnaised foods, which is a big risk with any of the so-called "salad" items (potato, chicken, tuna, etc.) in life. I can now confirm that the chicken salad is 1) not overly mayonnaised and 2) made from not-gross chicken (I have no further explanation for this, but picky eaters will know what I mean). It's relatively light, has a nice texture, and is flavorful. It is one of my favorite weekend lunch items (or weekday, if I'm working remotely and in the area) now, not just here but in general. The berries and cream pastry is delicious and I would eat everyday, or even multiple times a day, if my figure and my wallet could afford it. Sweet, rich, flaky. Definitely one of my favorite dessert / sweet snack items currently. I also got a birthday cake made here and it was absolutely gorgeous (and delicious, obviously). Very well executed and totally got my vision. As I said before, there is plenty of seating inside (outside too!) and the volume level is perfect -- lots of people coming through, but quiet enough I can read, study, or do work. We spend several hours at a time in here some weekends. Highly recommend to anyone in the area or passing through.

I also loved that they had protein powder to add to your coffee which is great for those who are on the go but also want their protein and coffee at the same time! Staff was very friendly and helpful even when having a semi difficult coffee order haha. The inside is very cute and nice to sit and relax to eat some yummy pastries. I also saw they have charcuterie board which sounds amazing to try with their flight of coffees. Definitely will visit when traveling again that way.

I've tried so many that look yummy and pretty til you get em home and find out it dosn't taste nearly as good as it looks! For beautiful top quality cakes that do not disappoint Mistys is a home run! When Misty's first opened I dropped in and bought a few cupcakes and I was instantly hooked! I took them home and hid them! I dropped in one day and bought a dozen. I spent the afternoon running errands and eating my goodies! I called home to check in with my teenager. When I left home there was one. Three friends had come by to hang out. There were now four of them .I opened the box and counted my cupcakes. I had already eaten five and I would be expected to share when I got home. I do not share my cupcakes! If I buy a dozen that means I fully intend to eat a dozen! Before heading home I returned to Misty's and took my pastry box in with me. I put the box on the counter and asked for a refill. I took my goodies home, gave each of the drooling teenagers to chose ONE cupcake and promptly hid the rest! Yeah it's that good!

The12 spots stretch from Jacksonville NC in the east to Hendersonville in the west! And there appear to be plans to expand into Greensboro, and perhaps Burlington. I like that these are company run operations, it can make quality controls matters easier to administer and monitor. Perhaps the biggest contributor to inconsistent quality at fast food chains is the quality control mandates are not vigorously enforced. The only major chain that I'm aware of that does insist standards be met is Jersey Mike's, and they have even suspended franchisee agreements of non- compliant stores. This is a very nice location, bright and shiny with easy access to drive thru or parking. I ordered two hot dogs, one with mustard and sauerkraut and one with mustard, chili, and onions. I don't order the combo here because I don't care for the FF. As usual the hot dogs were excellent, and I am becoming quite fond of the sauerkraut dog - the kraut has a nice bite to it. All in all this was a very good spot, perhaps the best Dairi-o I've visited.
