Carpe Diem is a charming coffee shop set in a quaint old Victorian house, and is popular in Mobile…read morefor a reason. They roast their beans in house, and the staff is always friendly. For instance, advised that my daughter was shy when the kid hesitated to order one day, the barista brightened up even more and put the girl at ease. Whether their coffee is good or not is completely subjective. I think it's good overall, but it might not be my first choice in town. But it's made with care, and as mentioned, roasted in house. Its popularity speaks to its quality. They also have a very good selection of pastries and other goodies to accompany your coffee, including a Mobile institution--cheesecake from a local company called Cotton Blues. The only gripe I have about Carpe Diem is their seating setup. There simply isn't enough of it. That said, I don't know how they could use the space more efficiently, since the cafe is small as it is. I prefer more private seating, which in other coffee houses I've been to has been accomplished with the judicious use of plants or high-backed chairs. The biggest component of the crowded seating is due to students from Springhill College across the street. Today, for instance, my husband and I were unable to find any seating at all. Even on the days when we can find seating, being entirely surrounded by people working quietly on their laptops feels awkward and lends a library-like feel to the atmosphere. It feels rude to have a conversation at a regular level. I feel like I'm intruding. I don't know how a coffee shop should handle this conundrum, as it's really not good business practice to limit customers' time while there, or to turn away clientele, even in an attempt to please all of their customers. There is already a back room which seems to be an unofficial space dedicated to students, but the overflow still takes up much of the cafe. That said, I enjoy Carpe Diem and going there is a nice little treat. I would definitely recommend it.

My daughter and I had breakfast here today and I can't express enough how much I enjoy their menu…read more She had never been to the Redbar before, and had also never had a crumpet. So it was doubly pleasing to be able to introduce her to this pleasing restaurant with its eclectic cuisine. The breakfast menu is what usually draws my attention. Served anytime, not just normal breakfast hours, a customer can choose between crumpets, omelettes, french toast, or just the usual bacon and eggs. I usually order one of their crumpets, but today, chose their Loaded Omelette with cheese grits. More like a purée, the grits were superb, creamy and buttery. My omelette was delivered spicy and hot. Giving my daughter a taste we soon concluded that the sausage used reminded us of the blood sausage we have enjoyed for breakfast in Peru, when we travel there to visit my wife's family. This is certainly not a typical omelette for Mobile, Alabama. My only complaint about it is that it was slightly overcooked and dry. Nevertheless, it was very tasty. My daughter had the Fried Egg and Cheese Crumpet, that she reported to be delicious. A mix-up on my drink order brought me a Turkish coffee rather than a Turkish latte, and suspiciously weak to be considered Turkish. I suspect that the cashier heard "Turkish", but not "latte", and confused, may have decided to see if a regular Americano would pass as an acceptable substitute. Except for the jolt I was expecting to receive, from the latte I ordered, it was acceptable. I am eager to return again to try one of their "Build Your Own Smashburger." Until then I will continue to hold the opinion that I have yet to have a disappointing meal at the RedBar, and I rest assured that my meal on that day will be equally satisfying.

I didn't wan't a big breakfast prior to lunch so I decided to stop by PJ's for a breakfast sandwich and coffee. I last visited a PJ's when I was in NOLA last year. This morning I ordered a Turkey sausage with egg and cheese sandwich, on an English Muffin. It was surprisingly good! It's actually better than Starbucks sausage, egg and cheese sandwich. What I loved about it is that the English Muffin was soft and not over baked. Coffee was great. I took it with me and finished it later. I also ordered a cinnamon walnut coffee cake. The coffee cake was a great compliment to the coffee. Staff was friendly here and it didn't take that long to receive my order. If you're looking for lighter breakfast and staying in or around Tillman's Corner, I recommend checking out PJ's. My bill of sale was reasonable priced as well. I'll definitely return here when in Mobile again.

I wanted to get some breakfast and I heard about this place but I don't remember who brought it up…read more I didn't know what to order but I decided to get the loaded breakfast sandwich. I ordered mine as a biscuit with a sausage patty and cheddar cheese. My order was a pick up and it didn't take long for it to be ready. One note: the Google maps gps tells you to turn on McFarland to get to the restaurant but that goes to another building. You should stay on Cottage Hill and turn left just after you cross McFarland. When I entered the restaurant a woman greeted me and told her that I had an online order. There was another woman in, I believe, the kitchen area. They were very helpful. They explained that if I ordered on their site or app that the biscuits are always $5 on Friday. I ordered from Yelp which in turn directed me to DoorDash. That was great to know. When I got home the biscuit was still warm. It looked amazing. It's sort of a square shape. Anyway, it was delicious. The patty sausage was amazing. The biscuit was fluffy and light. The cheese and egg were situated perfectly on the biscuit as well. I enjoyed it. I want to come back and really experience the biscuits or other bread with the honey butter. I would definitely recommend the loaded breakfast sandwich.

I've tried the coffee drinks, smoothies, shakes and their black tea and have never been disappointed. They keep the parking lot consistently clean and clear.

They recognize their regular customers and are always consistent in their customer service! I can always count on them to literally make my day. I hope their manager truly appreciates them and what they bring to the 7Brew team!
