The perfect cup of coffee and pastry! Heaven!
Paris Baguette
My favorite sandwich in Hampton Roads—the chicken pesto… I would fight somebody for the sandwich.

The best hand pulled noodles in the 757
Noodle Man
Is this place actual heaven? yes...i think so
Colattao Coffee House
This wannabe cowgirl is in love! They now have a brick and mortar and you need to go!
Sleepy Cowgirl Coffee
Get the Empanadas or hate yourself later. I wanted to raid the pasty case like flaky crust obsessed gremlin…but luckily for them I put that gremlin back in its cage and enjoyed my sweet treats like the lady I am
Knotts Coffee Company at Bridgeport Suffolk
Did I just have brunch inside a tree. Ummmm yes, yes I did. I have to Lemon Crepes to be exact and it made me want to handcuff myself to the chair and never leave.
Café Dâvina — The Pinner House
Fun
A little something different
The absolute best time…perfect for the girls or for date night. So much fun!
Sea Love
I could have brought a sleeping bag and moved in…the plants, the crafts, the events. It’s perfection!
