I’m so glad they added the second location to their lineup! I was a big fan of the Poquoson location and was glad to hear that there was one a little closer to me, at Anderson’s. I have a routine of coming in every Sunday to grab my morning coffee before therapy. The barista Lexie Is so kind and has remembered me every week, from my second visit. She knows my dietary preferences and always makes a note to say hello to me personally. She’s a big part of the reason why I come back every week for my coffee here! On top of that, they have amazing coffee. Their lattes are incredible, especially if you like something sweet like I do. They can accommodate all dietary preferences, and are always willing to make sure your order is right! The atmosphere is awesome and so calming. This is such a special coffee shop in our area is lucky to have it!

Pangea at Anderson’s is a whole vibe!!! The ambience and decor are like nothing I’ve ever seen at a business. And, I like the mix of seating options. Whether you’re looking for a standard table and chairs to do work on your computer or want to sink into a comfy couch to relax with family and friends, they’ve got you covered. We really enjoyed the tea and coffee we ordered. I didn’t try any food this time, so I can’t speak to that. The only reason I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that our drinks came in to-go cups, even though we were staying to enjoy them. I personally prefer actual mugs or glassware for the environmental and personal health benefits. This is a neat concept and spot worth checking out. I’m looking forward to my next visit where I plan try their food, hang out and give my updated review. #SupportLocal #SmallBusiness

What a magical place! Feels like an adult version of Rain Forest Cafe but for coffee. They have a serious espresso machine if you're into a delicious espresso based drink. 10/10 will tell my friends and be back!

Very cool, unique coffee shop in the middle of a large garden shop and nursery. Good latte and very delicious bagel with blueberries, strawberries, cream cheese, granola, honey. Comfy seating everywhere.

If you have been to Pangea's original spot then you know exactly what to expect when it comes to drinks. Excellence and creativity in every cup. Quality and thoughtfulness in service. Just plain deliciousness. The owners and the staff are committed to making customers feel welcome. I love the aesthetic of both spaces. This is unique but obviously with similar artistic intent. They have plans to expand what is available now (seating wise and food offerings) and I can't wait to experience it. Don't sleep on the pastry. They are fantastic! **Updating with new pics and videos of the new seating area**
