I love their hot tea. Although I'm not a coffee drinker, I hear they have wonderful coffee as well and their ice energy drink mixes are addicting.
You can so clearly tell how little this owner cares for anyone but herself. Taking advantage of new workers and acting like a mentor, just to throw people away. The pay is terrible. The employees deserve better. And the "story" on the wall of how it came about... SCREAMS classist. You are NOT paying for QUALITY. She has cheaper out on cups and drink carriers. My five drinks were thrown in one drink carrier that completely concaved. All five of my drinks for my employees were ruined. Didn't bother going back for replacements as I will not be returning again.
around 3 p.m. on December 30th 2022, I witness the owners verbally berate a door dash delivery driver. Needless to say; after what I saw I left. You could have simply explained about your policy in regards to carriers that the order needed four items instead of two. and then to have one of the co-owners yell at him and say he's "banned", when in no way was the dasher of abrasive, violent, or loud or cruded...makes me never want to travel to Muscatine and do business with such churlish people. which is why I have to give zero stars and not recommend people to go there. if that's how you treat people who do doordash...I'd hate to see what what happened to actual disgruntled customers.
My lotus drink was amazing..love the choice of paper cup and healthier version of energy drink! Very cool and trendy.
No hello, no energy and the 5 workers were too busy talking to each other and we felt like a burden when ordering we we interrupts their conversation. Drinks were good, but the service was far from good.
This is one of the better places, but yall need to learn from the best REDBAND COFFEE in Davenport is super consistent, their coffee is always strong and always has bold flavor. This place the taste is hit or miss, some daysit's great, other days I could toss it in the trash on my way out the door
Very friendly staff!! She recommended a few things and I chose the Cafe Con Leche. Excellent!! 🥰❤️😋 I will definitely be back!
nice atmosphere lots of light very friendly staff needs newer furniture also a bigger menu
Met here for a meeting and enjoyed the youthful atmosphere and space.
We went in at about 2:00 on Friday. The kids running the place seem to be preoccupied with each other and their friends that were in there. The items we purchased were pretty decent and would consider rewriting if the service improves.
Great staff always Greet you when you come in their drinks are awesome Has a very nice and relaxed atmosphere need to try it if you have not
Good coffee and knowledgeable employees
Good place to stop for coffee or a quick lunch,
Attended a graduation party there. Ate the party food. I don't do coffee drinks after 10AM
I have not had a bad experience yet. The green apple energy drink is outstanding.
Drove on my way to come here and get a coffee because Your business hours stated that you were open. I think it's really irresponsible and unprofessional not to update your hours. I wasted my time coming over here and I saw another person doing the same. Whether or not you are ever open again doesn't matter because I would never patronize a place that is inconsiderate of potential customers.
Great spot spot w/ friendly staff and great atmosphere. I like to stop and get a Frappe before my DoorDash shift starts and if the number of times I pick-up from there during the day is any indication then a lot of other people really like the Black Pearl also
Good coffee would definitely recommend
This is going to be a difficult review to construct, because these are sensitive topics. There are two reasons why I rate this place 3 stars. The first, is that upon recently stopping in, I noticed that they had removed the LGBT pride flag that was hanging above the barista area. I had stopped in a few times previously and had always felt welcomed and accepted and safe there. Now I am not so sure… considering that taking down a flag must mean they no longer support the community? Very upsetting. The second and last reason is the more sensitive topic. Just recently, a tragic death took place in the community. Not even a WEEK later, Black Pearl launched their newest drink: “#forcam”. I am not sure if this is the owner’s motive, but using the death of a young girl to advertise their business is absolutely sickening. It would be understandable if #forcam was a fundraiser, or an outreach program like the M Brunson incident, but it’s not. All the money raised from these “#forcam” drinks are not going anywhere but the pockets of the owners. I have also noticed that Black Pearl is notorious for naming drinks after loyal customers. What I don’t understand is- if the #forcam drink was Cammeron’s most popular order, why did they have to wait til AFTER she died to launch it/name it?? Sound two-faced to me. Will not be stepping in here again. If I were the family of the girl who passed away, I would start a lawsuit because this behavior for the sake of publicity is utterly disgusting.
Lots of energy drinks. Good coffee and tea. Music was pretty loud for a coffee house. Decided to get it to go instead.
