Eventually Hubby Tony and I stopped in to see what it was all about. I found out that the menu has a nice variety of coffees and teas, and a small selection of breakfast and lunch items. That day neither one of us was in the mood for a drink or a bite to eat. However, I left knowing that the space has tables, plenty of electrical outlets, and free wi-fi. If you have an account you can also reserve a private workspace.
(I think walking at the mall is pretty boring, so we usually mix it up by completing a lap of the lower level then taking the escalator up to the second floor and doing the same thing. Sometimes we do a third or fourth lap, but walk in the opposite direction.)
Today was only a two-lapper. The Cafe is on the top floor, so when we reached the door we swung in. Tony got a drip coffee and I ordered a Honey Lavender Latte, their signature beverage. When it was time to pay, the associate asked if I was going to use a Capital One credit or debit card. I said I was, and all of a sudden the price dropped by half.While we were waiting for our drinks I noticed two associates standing at a counter who greeted everyone who came in and said goodbye to people as they left. They were also willing to answer questions about Capital One services should anyone be curious.

ReplyDeleteNothing tastes better than half-price coffee!
ReplyDeleteYes indeedie.
DeleteHoney lavender Latte sounds good; my friend and I treat ourselves once a week, I get a Latte and she gets a hot chocolate at our favorite coffee shop on the patio of a church, surrounded by extensive gardens. And now you get coffee half price!
ReplyDeleteI'm mostly a black coffee person, but every once in a while I branch out.
Deletelavender latte, that sounds interesting and maybe good?
ReplyDeleteIt was very good. I asked for half the syrup, and got it iced.
DeleteIt sounds a good way for Capital One to drum up business.
ReplyDeleteMy thought, too, once I realized the Capital in the name was the financial institution and not the name of the mall.
DeleteI agree with both of you.
Delete50% off a coffee may be worth getting a card 😄
ReplyDeleteWe have two charge cards-Costco and Capital One. Each has different rewards.
DeleteI have this credit card but had no idea about the cafe.
ReplyDeleteIt might be worth seeing if there's one close to you.
DeleteUnfortunately, 100% off couldn't get me into a coffee shop.
ReplyDeleteTea?
DeleteHow neat!! This is a good discount at some of the more expensive coffee shops..
ReplyDeleteNow that's a useful benefit of a credit card.
ReplyDeleteI have a Capital One card, but sadly there is no such cafe in our area.
ReplyDeleteAs much as you travel, you might come across one.
DeleteInteresting! I have never heard of Capital One Cafe before but it makes sense. Glad it was a good experience for you.
