Sweet Magnolias Café & Gift Shop — Restaurant in Bartow

Cute place sitting in the heart of the downtown of Bartow. Perfect location. Loved the outdoor sitting under the beautiful weather. As for inside, it has many cute and inspirational saying posters on their walls. Love the fact they seems to honoring God. I took my wife for a date on vacation (we are Wisconsities). However... I gave it three stars for three reasons: 1) it said it has a coffee (since another coffee shop within walking distance closed on Monday), it is just k-cup coffee. It's not the coffee in its right. So, I felt deceived. As most of you know, it's not cool to deceive anyone. 2) food is okay. I had veggie wrap and its bored.

So I signed up for that and I planing to come back soon with...

First I have to say how adorably beautiful the place is. The decor is a loud flowery nostalgic aesthetic. Very instagram and Pinterest worthy. Since it was my first time eating here I got a grilled cheese and it tasted amazing. It used a crispy croissant as the bread and the cheese was gooey. It came with a side dish which I chose pasta for. My plate also included some fruit and a cookie. Overall I loved my lunch here, the employee was also so lovely and attentive.
