| - Right off of Providence Rd. you will find this place nestled in the corner in Newtown Commons. Parking right outside is convenient. This place, however, is not a Starbucks but they seem to be doing great business. I spoke with the owner when I went in for a Chilly Turtle (a MUST-have) and a chocolate torte cake. The cake was just ok, lacking in the sweetness that I was expecting. It had a rich chocolate flavor but had no real pizzazz to the quality that I've experienced at other places. However, I could rave all day about the Chilly Turtle! Its a magical blend of ice, chocolate, caramel, and espresso. The flavors ignite something in your mouth almost impossible to describe. I know its just a drink but I find it to be GOLD! haha.
Walking up to the building, I was sort of confused on which side I should enter, but take either door and it will open up into a homelike feeling that you come to expect from coffee shops. The family friendly radio (new life 91.9) playing in the background makes this a place that all are welcome. Very relaxed atmosphere. Take the time and talk with the staff, they will talk to you about anything and everything. Overall my experience was a good one. I may not be back for chocolate torte, but I sure will be back for the Chilly Turtle!
