Perks Coffee & Cafe 2

Not one to right a review, but me and friends had an interesting, unpleasant experience at this location. We went in after a workout in casual gym attire. After I ordered and was signing for payment, the cashier decided to say to me: "For next time, we don't allow people to be dressed like THAT in here" and gave a look to my friend who was wearing a TANK TOP. I clarified if she was referring to the tank top he was wearing, and was extremely caught off guard by this. The tank top exposed nothing but his arms. I sat with my friends, explained what she just said to me, and we were quite upset by this. Me, nor my friends, have ever had someone try to dress code us when walking into an establishment, let alone a coffee shop. However, if there is dress code, we'll respect it but wanted to speak to a manager about it.
My other friend went up, asked for the manager, and prefaced the conversation by asking, "is there a dress code for entering this cafe?" and the manager simply replied with "no." My friend explained to the manager what was said about our friend wearing a tank top and the cashier decided to chime. Instead of apologizing, she continued to argue that tank tops are for "sleeping"?? and said things like "well if you walk into places like THAT," "this isn't just any coffee shop," "just come in your pajamas then next time..." and so on. While the manager was civil, she did let this back and forth confrontation between my friend and the cashier continue on until my friend finally stopped addressing the cashier's extremely rude comments. That back and forth shouldn't have even occurred. The comment about my friend's shirt should not have occurred. It was subjective, rude, and overall INAPPROPRIATE.
I guess beware of employees rudely commenting on your attire, and I wouldn't recommend going in after the gym. Suit and tie may be best.

Visiting from out of town stopped by before heading to airport. Very clean, staff was absolutely a delight, food was delicious and fresh, portion sizes were great and coffee was perfect. Would give them 10 stars!

A little pricey but way better than Starbucks or any other coffee place I've been to. Great service every time. I wish the hours were longer, but I know they're short staffed right now.

It wasn’t a small upcharge. My 8.95 sandwich rang up over $12. Then a forced tip brought it over $14. Won’t be here again until they figure out how to post proper prices like every other restaurant.

Love this place! Great coffee, healthy, tasty food and they will make custom wraps, sandwiches etc FAST! Vegan and vegetarian options. Yum. And saved our hungry selves after Ida. ❤

Ate here twice so far. The staff is amazing. Good is great. Coffee is good. We love the honeysuckle latte and chicken biscuits. Definitely love the grits as well.

Great food, relaxing atmosphere, wonderful people. I love this place. The avocado BLT wrap hit the spot!

Nothing I'd write home about...drinks are decent. Staff is okay.

The older white lady w/ glasses is racist and rude. Doesnt greet black people.

We love Perks! The staff is always incredible and the food is great. We go there whenever we can.
