    We wanted some coffee and the Sweet Spot popped up as an option we never had so we decided to try it out. Since we originally only went for coffee and decided we wanted food once we got there, this ended up being a to go order experience. The server that helped us was nice and the place had a few people in it for a weekday morning, but wasn't busy and we didn't have to wait to long for our coffee and food. I ordered a latte, it was fine. Nothing spectacular but it hit the spot. I also ordered pancakes and bacon. When we got home the first thing I noticed was my 2 pancakes were huge and fluffy, so that was a plus. I also noticed my order of bacon was supposed to be 4 pieces and was actually like 8. So, that was really fun! The reason for my 3 star review is because that beautiful surprise double order of bacon also had a surprise piece of thick long black hair.... That really put a damper on the food mood once I saw it. I saw it after the fact so, yes I had already eaten most of my food. The hair was in the bacon box on the extra slices. Can't say I'll be going back to this spot any time soon.

    It's been awhile since I last ate at the Sweet Spot. I will be the first to admit that my expectations were pretty low. However, I was shocked to see that they were packed on a Sunday morning. Thankfully we were able to be seated immediately at what looked to be the last available table. I took that as a good sign. We sat for awhile before our server came to greet us. We hadn't realized that the menu was via a QR code on the table. Once I pulled it up, I was pleasantly surprised to see a menu that was a bit more elevated than the traditional diner food that I remembered before. Just a note that the menu definitely favors carnivores. I ordered the Cali Breakfast Bowl but switched out the cheese and asked for my bacon on the side, which I gave to my son. My daughter ordered the fruit crepe. My son was happy to take advantage of the gluten free French toast. The food was good. My kids ordered an iced chai with oat milk and a hot chocolate with oat milk. Neither were blown away. So I probably would stick to basic drinks like juice or coffee. All of the servers appeared to be high school/ college girls. They were all polite. I have no issues with returning again in the future.

    THEY ARE STEALING PEOPLES MONEY & THEY BLATANTLY LIED TO OUR FACES. I placed an order over the phone today & during the call she said that she was only able to take payment over the phone, not when I got to the restaurant. I paid the fee & upon retrieving my food I noticed that a gratuity fee had been added to my bill. When I made them aware of this they brought out the manager & he appeared to have an attitude. He then proceeded to tell me that there was nothing he could do because the food was already prepared and he stated that information about being charged gratuity for orders placed over the phone was located on their website. I then went to the website to verify this information and it was NO WHERE to be found. This will be my first and last time coming to this establishment. Their attitudes are very lackadaisical and rude.

    Proof they no food is complained about.

    Almost empty restaurant. Semi full staff. 4 filled tables.... After long wait, someone from the bar area finally said seat ourselves. Ordered drinks, did not receive menus. Didn't know menus are only available thru QR code because no one mentioned it or even where to find menus.. Overheard it (while waiting forever for water and coffee) from another waitress who sat the table long after us. Coffee was bitter and couldn't eat pancakes - no flavor at all beyond bread. Syrup was watered down so much, it was no longer sweet nor represented maple flavor. If food was good, I could easily overlook the service. But food was below a 1 star rating except for the bacon, which was a 10. Menu says "all items ordered will remain on your check" so my advice is don't bother complaining, just pay the bill and don't return.

    We went to The Sweet Spot on a Friday morning around 10am. We were greeted quickly and placed a to-go order at the counter. The server was friendly and knowledgeable. We had an omelet, Nashville Scrambler Breakfast Bowl, and basic scrambled eggs and bacon. We enjoyed everything. The Breakfast Bowl had Nashville hot sauce which was so good. It had a sweet element and smoky spicy ness to follow. The restaurant is a small place but so homey and relaxing. Lots of soft lighting as well. Can't wait to try other menu items.

    Was in Concord running errands and wanted a good hearty breakfast. So decided to try them out. Wait was over 30min since such a small place and was pretty crowded. I got the omelette/pancake combo. Was very good but I do wish they had hot syrup in a bottle instead of packets of cold syrup. Hot would have definitely made the pancake better. My waitress was very friendly and attentive.

    Amelia had great customer service but the food and the flies are RIDICULOUS. I shouldn't have to fight the flies away from my food and even the waitress know it . One said i know they are bad like wtf . The food has no seasoning like you should cook the grits longer until they are popping on the stove . Then i heard the guy in the kitchen talking crap about a customer that came through the door

    Food was good. Potatoes didn't have any seasoning. Omelets only come with egg and cheese. Everything else is a .65-.90 cent add on. Tea was amazing! There was no wait and the waiter was nice. I would stick to the pancakes, waffles, and French toast though.

    First time visiting the place. The food and presentation could've been better. Doubt I would return.

    Amylia. Amylia, AMYLIA!!! Absolutely amazing and such a welcomed experience. The food is almost as good lol. Jk, the food is fresh, full of flavor, and portioned just right. Today marks the 3rd day in a row (kitchen is under construction at home) and I'm sure it will be the start of many many more. They have a big projection screen which plays cartoons for the littles and another tv that can match or put something else on. Perfect setting to sit and digest the amazing meal while enjoying friendly banter with anyone in ear shot. Absolutely love this place! See y'all again soon!!

I read through some of the other reviews and I want to set the record straight. Yes, it's inside a church but there is a separate entrance. Yes, there are Christian books but also other genres. Yes, the coffee is very affordable BECAUSE all the staff are volunteers. No one is getting paid and they LOVE what they do. All smiles and great service. The proceeds go to local and global missions of the church. Win, win all the way around. The place itself is very spacious. Two levels. The seating areas are comfortable and far enough apart you can have some semiprivacy if you need it. My friend who brought me says she comes here all the time to study (she's in college). All of the staff knew her by name. (love places like that) I'm not a coffee drinker so I can't really speak to the coffee (although my friend says it's pretty good). I am a tea drinker though and they have a variety of flavors, some refresher juice drinks, a few pastries. Please support. Every now and again if you're thinking of getting coffee or a pastry, choose them. Why not? Do some good for the community through others who are committed to giving back.

It tasted like focus, with subtle notes of questioning my life choices--in a good way. The atmosphere felt like a place where time either slows down or speeds up depending on how long you stare at your cup. The barista seemed to understand my order before I said it, which was comforting and mildly unsettling. I left more awake than when I arrived, but not entirely sure if it was because of the coffee or the existential clarity it provided. Either way, I'll definitely be back, unless I already am.

The area was clean and the cute interior makes for a good social media photo op. The menu has good variety and explorative flavors that encourages repeat visits. I got a Mango Milk Tea and was not disappointed. It gave a Mango Lassi vibe and was very refreshing. My only downside was the bottom of the drink tasted gritty and had a white residue left at the bottom. Also, I initially wanted the drink with light ice and this was my first encounter at a shop that charges extra for light ice (45 cents). Not a huge deal and I understand that companies incur more costs for light ice or no ice. Maybe I could justify the additional charge for getting the drink without ice, but I still wanted ice---just not a lot of it. I just would've like to have been told about it or seen some signage about the additional charge since the toppings and other add ons are listed out. I could've missed where it was listed out, but I don't think I saw anything written out. Nonetheless, after a few healthy gulps, I was sad that the drink was gone. I would come back to try other items.

Is it messy? Yes. Is it good though? Yes! The peach berry lemonade was a definite star for me because it didn't have actual berries at the bottom and it wasn't an overwhelming flavor from both the peach and berry. We also got the chicken and waffles and they were great as well. The churro latte was fine, it wasn't my favorite, but it was still good for what it was.

Brought to our table after we had ordered it at the counter. The inside had a lot of seating options and they had an outdoor patio as well. The store was clean-ish. My star deduction comes from the pricing. It is HIGH for a chicken biscuit!! (As well as the beverages) I'm from Bojangles country and 12.00+ for a chicken biscuit even with egg and gravy on it hurts my heart. But I'll say it again, it was good. A regular soda is $3.49. I REFUSE!!!! to ever pay that. But for a special occasion or maybe a girls brunch where you only for yourself it's doable.

As a non pork eater I struggle to find places that serve non pork gravy and was so glad they had turkey sausage based gravy that I could devour. It comes with their seasoned potatoes but based on the reviews I decided to swap for grits. The biscuits & gravy were my favorite part of the meal. I wish it came with 2 instead of a side. I got my eggs scrambled. It was ok, typical container eggs. Next time I'll try fried hard eggs so I can have a real egg. The grits... they gave me the hard part that's usually found stuck to the bottom of the pan. Some parts were regular after I scraped the hard parts out. No flavor, I definitely needed to add salt & pepper. I'll be back for sure but will probably try to get the biscuits & gravy w/o a side.
