This morning I decided to opt out of my regular black coffee and try out the new Restoration Cafe for a Latte.
The latte was really delicious! Iâm not surprised as i was able to get my favorite almond milk as my dairy influence. Iâve been drinking too much Starbucks lately and I donât know why I was so nervous to try it out because I didnât think it would be comparable to my overly priced lattes I get at Starbucks, however, this takes the cake.
Taste wise, it wasnât too sweet or too strong and it had the right amount of froth in it. Personally, this drink was perfect for me since iâm not a huge fan of bold espressos. I think the only thing I was surprised about was that it was only $3 and change for a large latte, however walking away, I know why I was surprised most specialty drinks cost way more and this one was especially worth it! Restoration Cafe has what you want and honestly has very reasonable priced coffees compared to other locations. I hope you get a change to stop by this very special place located around the corner from Starbuck's and the Grind located off Cleveland street in downtown Clearwater. Welcome to the...
   Read moreI was having a rough day, and found the nearest coffee shop to get some coffee. I walked into this cute little coffee shop, very quaint, not terribly busy. Upon walking to the counter, I was greeted warmly by a younger guy (tall, dark hair, glasses). I told him it was my first time here, as I just moved to the area. I asked for a suggestion, I wanted something hot and a bit sweet. He recommended his personal favorite, a cortado with toffee nut syrup, and it was exactly what I needed. As he was making my drink, him and 2 other young women employees chatted with me, gave me a few laughs. It really made my day better to have such wonderful service. My drink was made quickly, everyone was incredibly friendly, and the coffee was amazing. I will absolutely be back (because they even have a loyalty card!). Thank you for making my...
   Read moreTried their Cortado (like a Cuban "cafe con leche" without the sugar) today and it was fantastic. If you like smooth espresso (theirs is Guatemalan) sourced by a company who cares about their farmers (Hemisphere) and you want a mega-smooth cup of your favorite espresso concoction, you gotta go see these guys in downtown Clearwater (Ft. Harrison between Cleveland and Drew). Also I learned that their coffee is roasted about 2 days before it arrives at Restoration Cafe. Compare that to the supet mega chains out there who have months and months of coffee in storage waiting to be consumed by us poor unsuspecting coffee drinkers. It's easy to see one key reason why the quality would be so much higher at Restoration. Keto crowd: they carry heavy whipping cream which is also sourced from a...
