Aromas Coffeehouse & Cafe

★★★★☆ 4 (638) • $

"Aromas Coffeehouse is a delightful little spot that offers a warm, inviting atmosphere, featuring excellent coffee and food. As soon as you step inside, you're enveloped in the intoxicating aroma of freshly brewed espresso.The decor has a quirky, eclectic vibe with mismatched furniture, brick walls, and local artwork adorning the space. It feels very homey and comfortable - the kind of place you could linger for hours over a good book or to get some work done. The mix of cozy couches and tables makes it easy to find the perfect nook.Of course, the coffee is the star of the show. They use premium beans sourced from around the world and roasted locally. Whether you go for a simple drip coffee, a velvety latte, or one of their creative house specials like the hazelnut white mocha, you can expect a delicious, high-quality brew. The staff are knowledgeable about their offerings and happy to make recommendations.The food menu features freshly baked pastries, sandwiches, salads and snacks that pair perfectly with the coffee. Some standout items are the flaky quiche, the hearty breakfast burritos, and the indulgent chocolate raspberry bread pudding. In addition to hot drinks, Aromas has a great selection of cold-pressed juices, smoothies, iced coffees and teas for the warmer months.While the vibe is relaxed, service can be a bit slow, during high summer season, due to the small size of the shop. However, that's a minor issue considering the charm and quality Aromas delivers.Whether you're a Williamsburg local or just visiting this historic, colonial town, this charming, cozy spot is well worth stopping into for a truly enjoyable coffee experience. Just ensure you leave plenty of time to savor the experience."

As someone from New York with high brunch standards, I was beyond impressed. The food, service, drinks, and atmosphere were all top-notch.A special shoutout to Jeesie for providing such attentive service - you made the experience even better! The Catfish and grits was exceptional - definitely a standout dish.If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and stop by for the Catfish. And definitely ask for Jeesie - you won't be disappointed!Thanks for the wonderful experience, Tipsy Beans!"

"My man and I ordered the chicken salad sandwich (I had it cold with PJ cheese, Cajun mayo ((WAS DELICIOUS!!)) spinach on ciabatta) and the Gouda sandwich (he had bacon, Cajun mayo, chicken). I also had the frozen Hawaiian mocha coffee with almond milk. It was delicious! It was also busy so we ordered online vs waiting in line to order, took about 30 minutes (which was fine as we went shopping and came back) the outside patio looked so nice! Definitely want to go back with my puppy and sit and enjoy! They send a text when your food is waiting. We enjoyed it! It was a nice (breakfast, brunch, lunch) spot and they close @14 For it being busier than usual today it was pretty fast!"

Tamarind

"Amazing authentic home made Indian food. I highly recommend the food. We told the owner to pick out some dishes for us. He made us a appetizer that wasn't even on the menu. It was like a party in my mouth."

Zeke's Beans & Bowls

★★★★☆ 4.1 (332) • $$

"I love this little hole in the wall. It's a great local spot. I usually stop here after a bike ride on the boardwalk, so today was nothing different. I'm a woman of routine, what can I say? Boring Taurus.Anyway, it's nice when it's quiet and empty. Maybe I'm somewhat antisocial but it's nice when it's not tourist season so everything comes out quick and delightful.Their cinnamon honey latte is absolutely delicious but here lately I've been drinking their turmeric tonic for health benefits. I feel healthier already! Lol ..."

"Food was awesome !! Fajita Pita with avocado 4/5 a little on the spicy side North Pole Bowl 5/5 my sister suggested removing the mango and adding strawberries Shrimp taco 4/5 this was a week special I love the vibes the art is amazing and a cool way to support local artists. The employees are so nice and helpful I really appreciate great customer service.I would definitely recommend if you are interested in a more healthy temptation. So if you find yourself downtown Norfolk definitely check it out !!!"

Pourfavor

★★★★☆ 4 (295) • $

"I love going out for coffee and Pourfavor has been on my list of coffee shops to try for a while. Since I was in the area, I definitely had to stop in. I absolutely loved how cozy this shop was. The beautiful art on the walls and the string lights really made it stand out. The shop looks smaller from the outside but I was shocked to notice all the seating all throughout the place.We were quickly greeted when we walked in and I was blown away with the large array of pastries and baked goods. Everything looked amazing! We decided on the Quesito which was a sweet puff pastry filled with cream cheese and drizzled with caramel and the Spinach and Ricotta Croissant. We then ordered our coffee drinks and sat in the chairs to wait for our items.The Mocha Frappuccino was absolutely delicious! The chocolate drizzled all throughout the drink really set it off. The Caramel Latte was pretty good as well but I'm sure it would have been better with an oat or almond milk versus the regular 2% milk that I chose. The pastries were served warm and tasted good. I really enjoyed the Quesito. Overall, I can't wait to return to try their other amazing pastries! The coffee was great and the staff was very helpful and friendly."

Tapioca Go

★★★★★ 4.5 (232) • $$

"I stopped by Tapioca Go to get a Lychee Green Tea one day and let my boyfriend take a sip. He enjoyed it so much that after we got to his house, we went back to get himself his own drink and another for myself!Ever since then, it's been our go-to boba shop whenever we're in Chesapeake. Love how Tapioca Go isn't too pricey, gives you a generous portion of toppings, and doesn't give you too much ice in your drinks.Thank you Tapioca Go for being the first boba shop to get my boyfriend hooked on boba :)"

Sunrise Breakfast Shoppe

★★★★☆ 4.2 (263) • $$

"Very quick service! Food comes out in less than 10 min of ordering. Very simple food menu options. Mainly just staple items. Very affordable. Meals $10-$15 avg. per person. Waitresses are kind ladies typically. You do have to go to the register to pay!"

Angie's Bakery

★★★★★ 4.5 (183) • $$

"Wow!! Since I've come to love everything made with Ube, this location is a veritable fairyland of goodies.They didn't have the Ube Spanish Bread, which is my favorite. But their Ube Pandesal Rolls are a close second. The first time I went, I had to immediately eat one in the car. It was so hot & fresh that my finger made an indentation in the roll. Yumminess personified!!There is a door and opening between the "behind the counter' personnel & the area where the bakers are working. When you order Ube Pandesal Rolls they actually walk into the area where the goodies are being baked & bring them out fresh from the oven.It was a quite busy time of the day so I quickly purchased a bag of 6 Ube Pandesal Rolls (not nearly enough), an Ube Crinkle Cookie, a slice of Bibingka (recommended by my physical therapist) & a Pandesal.Since I don't like sweets the Ube Pandesal Rolls were by far my favorite. I have one every day now with my breakfast. On a return trip I purchased a bag of twelve, which is a more reasonable amount for me.My PT's favorite Bibingka was too sweet for my tastebuds. They had a Ube Bibingka that day but not offered in the large slices. That probably would have better suited for me. Angie's has quite a variety of offerings. But I was on a singleminded focus aimed at Ube.The location is in a strip shopping center on the west side Holland Road. It's hard to see coming from the north since the center has a backwards L shape with Angie's facing traffic coming from the south on Holland Road. Turn west on Northwood Drive then a right turn into the shopping center. You'll be immediately facing Angie's.Although it's a busy shop, I've never had a problem getting a parking space in front of the bakery.I love your Ube Pandesal Rolls Angie's Bakery. Returning will be a regular part of my life."

Roast Rider Coffee + Tea

★★★★☆ 4.1 (217) • $$

"One of the few coffee places I've found around here with an Espresso Tonic. Add some of their house made orange blossom syrup *chefs kiss*Plus the place is chill inside, has a friendly staff, and has a spot where you can draw something on a sticky note and put it up. 10/10"

Boba Chef

★★★★★ 4.6 (172) • $$

"I'm somewhat indifferent about this place. Located within close proximity to Guandong Taste, it's like the perfect after dinner treat. Parking is shared among the businesses in the area and normally isn't an issue to park within walking distance.Military discounts are offered on Wednesdays and they have a rewards program where you accrue points towards free drinks. The interior was in some disarray and cluttered. A few long hanging cobwebs and dust bunnies were present but not alarming.I asked for a slush to be half mango, half strawberry. What I got tasted like a strawberry milkshake and it lacked that "wow" when you go to a new place. I'm pretty confident that I won't go back because it took an unusually long time to make my order and I have had better slushes made the right way and tasted far better.Customer service was welcoming and genuine. The flow of customers can depend on the time of day. Surprisingly, this location is closed on Saturdays. For some businesses, this could be a peak business day but I'm sure they have their reasons.Not the worst experience but this location is far from me and I don't see myself going out of my way to get mediocre beverages."

Town Center Cold Pressed - Ghent

★★★★☆ 4.4 (175) • $$

"This is one of my favorite places to grab a quick breakfast. My go to is the real chicken with regular croissants bread and I had the turmeric maple cinnamon for the first time and fell in love. I have tried their other location but this one is my favorite they never do me wrong"

American Brew

★★★★☆ 4.1 (195) • $$

"If you're looking for a coffee shop that feels like a warm hug on a chilly day, American Brew is your spot! From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and a vibe that's equal parts cozy and cool.The coffee? Absolutely top-notch. Whether you're a straight-up black coffee purist or a "make it sweet enough to be dessert" latte lover, their menu has something for everyone. I ordered the teddy graham latte, and let me tell you--it was like sipping liquid gold.10/10 highly reccomend."

Perked Up! Coffee Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.2 (183) • $

"Well, i had recently put in a review about my favorite local coffee place, then on a weekend getaway we found this place. Well, this place was amazing too. For starters they give extra shots in their coffee so there is more bang for your buck. And the coffee is so good, great balance in the mocha without being tooth meltingly sweet. I got a piece of the bacon quiche and it was really good. The service was amazing (why they got that 5th star). So go take a walk a block or two from the beach and get yourself a great coffee. If we lived here this would be our everyday go to place!!!"

Borjo Coffeehouse

★★★★☆ 4.2 (177) • $

"I haven't been here in over a year, and the last time I was here was for a job interview that I didn't get (sad I know, but that's life). I didn't really get to try much of the menu back then and I haven't had the opportunity to come back since.First, I'm glad I came after 5pm this time because I was able to find parking right in front of the shop (luckily because it got full by the time I left) so there's the /little/ window of opportunity for you to find front row parking.Second, their Mocha Java milkshake is SO THICK and yet SO GOOD that you really shouldn't drink it on a full stomach. Don't do that or you'll feel full really fast. It's so good and I'll definitely have to try their other milkshakes and iced drinks on the menu.Third, the baristas are so sweet and helpful and fun to talk with. They know how to do their jobs, and are so professional and make you feel like you want to come back. I appreciate that and that's one of the main factors in me frequenting a business. So major kudos for that. The space is big enough that you can accommodate a group meeting like there was today, and yet still cozy enough that you don't feel like you're being drowned out in the din of noise.I like that they are open until 7pm, and not that far from my work, so the next time I want to get some work done in between commuting home, I'll definitely make my way down there for some work and drinks. Go check it out if you haven't already! And they are partners with Taste I believe? And I love Taste so that's another bonus."

Coalescence Coffee

★★★★★ 4.7 (136) • $$

"Talk about a cool place. The inside of this place is absolutely beautiful. I went with a group of people we were doing a Saturday morning coffee crawl and walk. This place was on our list of places to go. So glad I went such an open space great for a large group to meet. Watching them make your order was like watching a scientist or chemist. I was tossed on whether or not to order a cold brew coffee or try something new It was suggested that I try the Churchill cold, and boy was it deliciousI am excited to go back. They offer classes every Saturday on coffee. I have to try the class. Any excuse to go back and try they even offer food they have a large room that they rent out which would be great for small gathering or a party.If you are a coffee lover, and want to experience a different kind of coffee experience, this place is a must go."

Persnickety Crane Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.4 (154) • $$

"Went back with my coffee group and we all enjoyed our drinks, food, the seating area (plenty of seating options and areas including a kid play area) I personally had the chicken salad and it was still very good as well as the London fog drink. My friend had the Brazilian bagel and she said it was vet good! Service behind the counter as well as the people bringing out the drinks were all kind and nice. Overall a great place to gather!"

COVA Brewing Company

★★★★☆ 4.2 (166) • $$

"Nice little bar space with a great atmosphere as well as a good selection of different beverages and coffee. Having the outdoor location adds a nice touch to allow easy access to food trucks in the evening as well as a great space to hang out. Beers were very good without having anything that particularly shocked or wowed me. Definitely a lot of selection s though that all taste like a good example of each. So perfect for sipping and hanging out like this place is cared for.Only downside only ran into was the beers being charged when it was out. Being self-served, one of the taps was out but it is still running up a charge. I can see that being a problem if you don't notice you're being charged. Staff though was very easy going about taking it off when I went to get them. Parking is definitely a bit limited without parking in the nearby shopping center. But with all the amenities and great service it's a good place to hang out."

Marchese Italian Market

★★★★★ 4.6 (137) • $

"My new favorite spot!! Not only is it a market....it's a restaurant too! The meals are absolutely delicious and taste so fresh. Big plus that the prices are reasonable! When I walked in, I felt like I was immediately transported to Italy. The atmosphere is welcoming, relaxed, and lovely. And the staff is very friendly.Don't skip the salads! They are mouthwatering. Everything that was ordered during my 2 visits: caprese salad, four cheese ravioli, gnocchi with pesto, chocolate profiteroles, pistachio cake, and 2 specials which i forgot the name. Don't miss out on the specials. They are so good!!It's a small space so best for small groups of around 4. Excited to bring more of my family and friends here!"

Amiraj Modern Indian Kitchen

"We were looking for a new lunch spot when passing through Williamsburg. Wonderful! Dale Malkhani and the mixed grill with nasal sauce were excellent. Naan was a great accompaniment. We love gajar halwa, and it was the perfect ending. We will certainly be back."

Muddy Waters Coffeehouse

"What a great coffee house! Gabs is a great barista and we really like her. Genuine smile and makes you feel welcome.This will be our regular stop in E-City from now on."

Pale Horse Coffee

★★★★★ 4.7 (100) • $$

"I will have to say this is a manly coffee shop. Big leather couches. Dark wood tables. Cool murals on the wall with a skeleton's hand holding a coffee and a Pale Horse with the rider holding a hot cup of Jo. A girlfriend and I came here on our coffee trail but I am going to have to bring my husband for sure. This place has such a great comfy feel. Oh and DOG friendly. I LOVE DOGS!!! It is a great place to hang out and have coffee.They roast and sell their brand of coffee. They have a pretty large variety. The lattes are great. I got the latte of the week=LOTW it was butter pecan, shortbread. taste like a cookie latte. My friend got the Rip Cord Latte. Both were great. I did like the Rip Cord the best out of the 2. The cinnamon really made it nice. They have a good selection of milk alternatives. They were all out of food. When we sat down to drink our coffee we saw them restocking. And they had a food truck outside.Everything was really nice inside and clean. Staff are friendly. We had a great experience this makes my 8th stop on the coastal coffee trail"

"Highlights: Crab Cakes (hardly any fillers - remoulade had great flavor and zing), fries were fantastic, yummy milkshake, *incredibly friendly* staff. Comments: Burger was disappointing, brioche buns were a bit too oversized oversized compared to the rest of the sandwiches, a bit on the greasy side (no complaints, just be aware)."

Mea Culpa Cafe

★★★★★ 4.7 (95) • $

"Favorite coffee shop that I visited in Norfolk! They use local beans and the coffee was made with care. They use house made syrups and their vanilla oat milk latte was so good I came back and got it a second time. Drip coffee comes with a free refill. They have a limited food menu with unique items that were all very good. We tried the banh mi and liege waffle and both were hot, fresh, and delicious! Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating and the place itself is cute and quaint. Employees are friendly and service was great. Would definitely recommend if you're in Norfolk!"

JoYu Tea & Coffee

★★★★★ 4.6 (99) • $$

"Sophia and I were last here a year ago checking out this spot which was new at the time. Since we were in the area last Saturday, we decided to stop by to see what's been going in.We were greeted by the staff once we walked in. One thing that I noticed was they added a self-service kiosk which saves time for staff taking orders directly. As far as inside goes, everything looked pretty neat like before. And music was playing adding a calm-like vibe throughout. A few people were inside either dining in or ordering to-go. My selection was a large Strawberry Yogurt at 50% sugar with tapioca pearls added. This was very good. Not too sweet even with the pearls added. Sophia ordered an Ube Mike Cream and enjoyed herself as well.Not really much to add here, but once again, Joyu came through for us before we made the trek home. Hopefully, we'll be back soon. Till next time :)"

Firehouse Coffee

★★★★★ 4.6 (94) • $

"On our day off, Sophia and I headed here to this little spot located in Fort Monroe. They are located in what was the oldest firehouse for the US Army. The decor inside is priceless. Seating is both inside and outside for your preference. They were even featured for a Friday Flavors segment last year for Channel 13. Question is did it live up to the hype from Yelpers?We were immediately greeted by staff upon entering. I ordered the Pumpkin Spice Latte along with a sausage, egg and cheese croissant. Talk about feeling right at home. The coffee was perfect and the crossaint was very good. Very buttery and came through. Sophia ordered the same and liked it as well.Just like many other places, it looks like we found a new place. Welcoming staff, place that is small and quaint and food and beverages you can enjoy :)"

Sweet Beans Coffee Bar

★★★★☆ 4.4 (98) • $$

"Dropped in on a whim one afternoon and was pleasantly surprised! It's not really visible as you drive by so I rarely think about it being so close to my home...it's less than mile and a half away so now that I know it's good, I'll need to head back to try some other things.On this trip, which was late afternoon on a week day, I was craving a chai latte and stopped in to check it out. There was only one very pleasant young lady working and a pretty steady flow of customers so it did take a little longer than I'd hoped to be served but I enjoyed taking a look around the place while I waited. They have books, they have games, they have scheduled events (paint night for example) and they have a good variety of bakery items and hot sandwiches among other things. What a fun atmosphere! Oh and did I mention they also serve beer and wine! They have enough of a variety so there's sure to be something for everyone. You should definitly go and give it a try too."

The High Cup

★★★★★ 4.8 (81) • $$

"I visited with D.P. to take part in the $7.57 deal (thanks, Yoonie) and took everything to-go. The owner, Joseph, was so friendly and patient while our indecisive selves figured out what to order.We both ordered the Classic Korean Bowl (marinated bulgogi, bean sprouts, carrots, kale slaw, hot sauce, scallions, sesame oil, roasted sesame seeds, and cucumber). It was FANTASTIC. I love bulgogi, and their marinade is one of best I've ever tried. This version of the bowl for the $7.57 deal is smaller than normal, we were told, but I thought it was the perfect size and hope this becomes a regular option in the future.We also ordered the slushies. It was kind of the owner to offer samples of all three flavors: mango, strawberry, and peach. My favorite was the mango but the other two flavors are on par as well. I ended up getting a blend of strawberry and peach while D.P. got the mango. Fair warning, they're very sweet but I thoroughly enjoyed them. Naturally, I added bourbon to the second half when I got home. We also tried the pastries - a coffee muffin and sweet almond cake. Delicious! The best part is this shop features local art for sale which I could've spent all day looking at. It's going to be swapped out at the end of the month."

Corduroy

"I LOVE coffee shops, especially located in houses or cottages. It enhances the experience of enjoying a warm and/or refreshing drink. It's like being invited into a friend's home, you know? And what do friends usually offer you to drink? A coffee! See what I am saying?My friend from Hawaii was visiting and we had planned to start the day at The Bee and The Biscuit. Well holy shit, when people said, there was a wait there, they didn't tell me it was gonna be a WAIT of an hour and 15. But, no problem, I'm a solutions gal. I noticed that Sawdust Road (SR) was located right next to it when I pulled in and it has been on my hit list too, so problem solved! We walked over to check it out to kill the time.The backyards are all open, so you can just walk over from the back. As a mother of 2 children, this is a PERFECT play date meet up place. Their backyard is huge and is equipped with Adirondack chairs and playhouses and apparatuses. So much room for the kids to run around and release all that energy. They also have a nice sizeable front yard, but it's pretty bare. I think it's just meant to look pretty from the street with a cute picket fence and just wild flowers.Inside, you'll find an old 2-storey house that is decorated beautifully with different rooms. Not sure if the upstairs is free to use. Didn't think to go up there. They also have a nice porch to enjoy. Just a cool vibe (see pics)!We didn't get any food, because we were going to eat shortly at The Bee, but I did notice they have limited food choices. They had some baked goods that looked delish in the display case. I had a Iced Chai which was yummy, but I did think it was a little heavy on the ice, so I'll ask for light ice next time!They also have a drive through section of the porch, close to the service counter which I thought was pretty neat and unique drive through "window".This is a drive for me, but I will definitely come back to bring the kids or just a great option to pass the time while waiting for brunch next door.Stay safe, Friends!"
