I love this place and wish it would open earlier because it’s on my way home from dropping off my kiddo at school. 9am is kind of late for a coffee place in my opinion, but this place seems short staffed often. I mostly come here for the pastries. The pesto ham bun and ube croissant are my favorites! The boba drinks are honestly only ok. I think they use powder, which is unfortunate. I might still get a drink once in a while because there’s pretty much no where else to get boba in Lincoln. The staff are always friendly when I come in the mornings.

Lemon bar is still great and they make mean pirozhkis here. Not sure if this is a under new management for we use to see the owner before when they opened back when we first found them by accident many years ago. However, boba was and still a miss for us, but we do give them credit for trying... we're hopeful they'll make it better in the future

My favorite drinks are here, and the pastries are always fresh. Come earlier, though, after lunch the selection is limited. They don’t ask for tips if you pay with a card, but the staff are so friendly and professional and drinks and bakery are so delicious that I bring cash specifically to leave a tip as my genuine thank-you.

I’ve been coming to B&B for years, and the owners never fail to amaze me. It’s not just the seasonal drinks or pastries (which are always incredible), but the way every detail is thought out, from the fresh-baked pastries made by the family each morning to the changing decorations that make every season feel special. You can tell the people behind this place pour their hearts and souls into everything they do. The coffee is fantastic, the boba is a hit with the kids, and honestly, everything we’ve ever tried has been amazing. This place truly deserves way more recognition!

Family friendly place. The kids liked the drink and the pastry. I think the best product is their spinach and cheese bun. Their boba drink is not that great according to my daughter… their sofa needs some maintenance. But any way, it’s good to support local family business, the staff was friendly… pastry was good.

This is a very nice place to get a boba tea and pastry and sit and relax and enjoy them. I Love the vibe of the place and found them completely by accident while waiting to meet friend down the street. I drove in the parking lot in search of a little shade to sit in my car to kill time and saw the sign. Boba?! Uhhhh yeah I'm getting out to check it out! Had a wonderful standard milk tea 50% sweet with boba and it really hit the spot. All the pastries looked wonderful and I will definitely have to come check them out again. I ended up relaxing in their comfortable chairs and enjoyed my drink in the A/C and chatted with a few customers who said they make all the pastries fresh there. I just loved the decor and vibe in here and drink was made super fast so you can just pop in to get one and not have to wait like some boba places. I guess I should mention for those of you who drink coffee they have you covered too. Will be coming back to meet friends here next time!

Delightful family run local business. Perfect spot to sit with a cup of tea and a book. Had the apple turnover, which was delicious and still warm from the morning baking (easy way to know it is truly homemade!). Definitely a good place to frequent.

I really can't get enough of this place. They have a great selection of drinks, a cozy atmosphere with just the right volume of background noise, and most importantly their food is awesome. They offer a European bakery menu with rich Bavarian cream pastries, turnovers, piroshki and other fun treats. They now have a new food and hot tea menu which I haven't yet tried but will someday soon, hopefully.
