Cafe Genevieve

Another advertisement from Instagram that made me wanna go. Valentine's Day you can always expect places to be busy with that in mind. I figured this might be the right spot because it's small. I figured not too many people would go there but boy was I wrong because their bakery case was slim pickings the one thing that I look forward to is getting some fresh macaroons and guess what there was none available so I was a little upset, of course because there was none available.They were offering live music and apparently some appetizers. I did not see any of that available. I did see live music. I decided to order a bowl of French onion soup. The French onion soup did have good flavor. If I can critique it I would definitely say they need to sauté the onions a lot longer . The bread and the cheese on the French onion that was baked on the top was hands-down the best part.Would I go back? Of course, I'll go back because I love their macaroons.

Cafe Genevieve is reopened. Last time I went months ago they were closed for business. The person I spoke with said the old one closed that was under different management and they reopened. It's the location that was at Seldon Market. They both had the same name but we're two different businesses. They kept the same set up. It's a cozy little coffee shop with sandwiches, coffee, macarons, and etc. They had several flavored macarons available when I went. I got pistachio, red velvet, nutella ,and vanilla cake. It was about $17 for 6. The vanilla was my favorite. It was chewy and tasty, I enjoyed the red velvet also. The nutella was ok but didn't actually remind me of nutella at all. The pistachio was my least favorite. There was a weird aftertaste that stuck with me for a while. I like all the options and will return to try other flavors. I'm glad they reopened. Check them out!!!

Cute little place. Heard it used to be an antique store. My husband just stopped by for a snack. We both got a bottled drink le Village. I got the Lemon Mint, and he got Blood Orange. We got pastries. I got the Almond Pistachio Croissant and he got the Pain au Chocolat. We didn't stay. We will have to come back for the full experience another time.

Atmosphere was wonderful, staff super friendly, very homey vibes inside. Great for a quick coffee/pastry or to sit and chat for a while. Highly recomme

I sampled the fruit tart and two macarons. Unfortunately the tart was inedible with a floppy soggy crust and the taste of refrigerated lack of freshness pervaded it. The fruit was limp and lacked plumpness. I regretted spending 8.50 in something I ended up throwing away. The macarons were a bit better but served cold which ruins the light melt in your mouth texture a macaron should have. The flavor was serviceable but noticeably artificial and left an aftertaste. Overall these clearly lack the quality one would expect of a French patisserie. Will not return.

Cute little café with great coffee! I didn't ask but I'm sure everything is made in house. They have limited seating and a limited menu. Everything we tasted was divine. We had a group of 6 and we all enjoyed our coffees and hot chocolate. We also had macarons, croissants, and quiche. Spectacular. I was a little disappointed that they didn't have croque monsieur today but l hope to come back and try that next time. Chapeau !

Decided to pop in on a Friday afternoon, and I honestly fell in love with how charming the place is! The shop is sidled off the side of a busy road, but there is a sign for the cafe that makes them easy to find. They have their own little parking lot which is very nice, but it might get a little cramped in their busier times! Upon walking in, I immediately noticed how tastefully and charming the cafe is decorated- they are situated in one of the oldest houses in the area and they really set up the decor to work nicely with the house. They have a main seating area, back area, and one table outside for now but soon to be more. To get to the back room from the counter, you have to walk by their open kitchen, which I really like as it makes the cafe feel super homey! As for menu items, they seemed to have a decent selection of drinks and pastries. I decided to just have their honey pistachio latte that day, and it was not bad! I personally like my lattes a bit sweeter, so I would recommend asking for extra honey, but I really appreciated that you can see actual bits of pistachio in the drink! They do not skimp out on ingredient quality here. All in all a lovely little cafe to have a meetup or some R&R for yourself, definitely can't wait to come back!

Bonjour, mes amis! Cafe Genevieve (CG) has truly grown up! From farmers markets to their first retail location in Selden Market in 2022 (?), they recently opened their second location in Virginia Beach in the Historic Caraway House. It's the oldest structure in Virginia Beach, dating back to 1734. The building had been occupied by another coffee shop previously, but they unfortunately didn't last very long. The team at CG has done an amazing job at renovating and decorating the home, while preserving its charm and have completely transformed the space, combining beautiful colors and old and modern furniture. I had their La vie en rose latte that is made of strawberry and rose syrups and a chocolate crème brûlée that was torched to order. Both the latte and crème brûlée were delightful.Things to note:- they have their own parking lot- they have more menu items (soups, sandwiches, pastries) as compared to Selden Market- FYI, the syrups are made in house by one of the owners- they serve Rich Port coffee, their own customized blend- they have wifi and although there is very limited seating, it's the perfect spot to meet up with a friend or a mini date with your SO.Go and experience our little piece of Paris in Virginia Beach!Enjoy, mes amis, and never stop exploring!

If you are looking for a beautiful quaint coffee house with amazing service.... please put this cafe on you things-to-do list. Beautifully decorated, delicious pastries and a great selection of hot and iced coffees. And, WINE!!!! This is my new favorite spot.

The staff and owner are amazing here. The setting has a chill and relaxing vibe. I love their chocolate chip scones, eclairs and croque monsieur sandwich. They also have a great variety of coffee choices.
