Gather - Chesapeake

I had an exceptional experience at this restaurant, thanks to the attentive, friendly, and helpful service. The delicious food and amazing cortado sealed the deal for me. The service area was impeccably clean, and the pastries were beautifully displayed and labeled, making it hard to resist adding just one more treat. The atmosphere is designed for both socializing with friends and enjoying some peaceful alone time. With its high ceilings, plentiful seating, and softly playing instrumental music, the overall vibe is incredibly relaxing. The chicken...

It's a lovely establishment that truly captures the local vibe you'd hope for in a coffee shop. As a developer and software engineer, I appreciate having a workspace that is quiet enough to concentrate, yet has just the right amount of background noise to prevent complete silence. I particularly enjoy the thoughtful touch of playing instrumental violin renditions of popular songs; it's perfect for enjoying music without becoming distracted from my work. I've come across some reviews expressing concerns about the prices, but I believe those opinions are quite mistaken.

It 's a beautiful place that really encompasses that 'local ' feel that you want whenever you walk into a coffee shop. As a developer/SE, I prefer to have a space to work that is quiet enough to focus, yet has enough background noise to fill the silence. I love the added detail of wordless violin tracks of popular songs, it 's good for listening to music without causing distraction from work. I 've seen a few reviews with concern of cost, but those reviews couldn 't be further from reality. $6 protein smoothies (which I recommend based on my visit).... $5 coffee(which I have yet to try)... it 's a steal if you ask me. I was initially wary of the $9 chicken salad sandwich until it came out, it was more than my money 's worth in size and quality. The service and cleanliness was on point. The staff was super helpful, extremely sweet, and made the first visit just that much less awkward. You won 't be disappointed if you take a stop by.

I love this coffee house! I 've tried many coffee shops closer to me (on the Peninsula) but no one compares to their coffee. The 'Caramel Popcorn Latte ' is my all time favorite, but this is the only place I can find it. So I drive all the way from York County just to get a cup. Worth a try, so stop in!

I love this place so much. I usually to to-go orders because I’m a lonely military spouse lol. It is so easy because it’s always ready when I arrive! I just walk in and pick it up! Everything is SO yummy!!!! I usually get an iced latte with vanilla and other flavors they offer. They have like 10000000 flavors! Anyways, y’all rock. I love y’all!
