Alisha Belk: Homemade donuts fabulous, smoothie banana strawberry mango combo excellent, free wifi and lots of space to work. Can't ask for more!
Emily Fraker: The peanut butter banana toast was amazing, but the iced caramel latte was just alright. It didn't really taste like caramel and they don't offer almond milk 😕
Dustin Owens: Good Counter Culture coffee. Great friendly personal customer service! Pumpkin latte is a great seasonal drink.
Ashton Smith: Spring rolls, tuna ceviche for apps; pork belly soup will change your world, and don't leave w/out tempura bananas - even if you think you don't like dessert. But really, it's all delicious.
Crash Gregg: Downtowner Magazine recommended nom nom at Bida Manda: Amphone's Curry Chicken (Van's mom's recipe), Crispy Pork Belly Soup, Saffron Crepe, Fried Bananas, Mango ice cream.
Leigh Ava: The pork belly soup and filet with the green papaya salads are my two favorites main dishes. Appetizers not to miss: lettuce wraps. Favorite dessert: dessert trio
Justin Graney: Banana pudding is the best I have ever had!

Barbara Mooty: Hotcakes! Hotcakes! Hotcakes! Yum!! Today's banana peanut but my fav is sweet potato!
The News & Observer: Try some pie - lemon cream with boysenberry honey, roasted banana cream, or chocolate hazelnut chess. The all-pie dessert menu is a tribute to Poole's original incarnation in the 1940s as a pie shop. Read more.
jiresell: So good. They don’t take reservations, so get there early. Menu is on a chalkboard, which is very cool as the chef will make whatever is seasonal!
