I really wanted to love this place. It's close to my house and I was so excited when I heard it was opening, but I've been twice and both times the drinks tasted VERY watered down. Honestly the worst coffee I've ever had. I'm not making this review to be nasty, I'm making it to inform the shop and help them improve, because I really want to see them succeed.
I ordered a basic iced latte. No syrups, just espresso and milk. It tasted exactly like water and coffee. Even the picture looks like water and coffee. My sister used to be a barista. I ordered her a hot white mocha, it tasted like water with a hint of hot white mocha, and was made from a kuerig. I gave it to her without saying a word just to see if she'd say anything. She looked at me confused and said "this is water?", and then said "worst hot white mocha I've ever had". I then gave her my iced latte and asked her to guess what I ordered, she said "water and coffee?".

As long as the basic base drinks taste good, any sugar you add will just make it better.
I also heard the shop is remodeling and bringing in food (pastries, sandwiches etc..). I'll still stop in for those things, and will keep trying to see if the coffee has improved. I really want to support...
   Read moreI highly recommend âCoffee Tea and Me.â My experience at this coffee shop was pleasant. It is a family-oriented place. As I walked in, I was greeted with a smile and a positive attitude. Two customers were before me, and the wait time was short.
I inquired about the hot beverages on the menu, and Tina did an excellent job explaining the ingredients of each one of the items. The owner, Alicia, was welcoming and friendly. I ordered a crÚme brûlée cheesecake latte and cherry cream croissant. Both items were warm, delicious, and perfectly made. I will be a...
   Read moreTried Abundance today (used to go here when it was Coffee Tea & Me) and it was fantastic. I didnât get a picture of my coffee because I drank it too fast lol but it was really good. I got something that had vanilla and coconut cream in it. Sweet lady had us try our drinks before even paying to make sure we liked it before we paid. Thereâs even a blind date with a book shelf for all the bookish girlies like me. đ„°...
