The billionaire owner of the Miami Dolphins just invested in this coffee chain that's about to take over the US. Here's what it's like to visit.
The Bluestone Lane I visited was a smaller location in an office building. Bluestone Lane's locations are divided into two categories: small, coffee shop locations and cafés with more extensive seasonal menus.
The inside was decorated with marble countertops, green tile walls, and an abundance of plants. It had huge windows and bright lights, making it an inviting space.
The walls had vintage maps, photos of Australia, and sayings like "g'day mate" written on chalkboards. There were only a few benches for seating, but it didn't feel cramped or claustrophobic.
Some of the café locations are much bigger and offer a lot more seating than the one I went to, making them better spaces to sit down and have a meal or meet up with people.
Bluestone Lane has a huge coffee menu with both hot and cold drinks, loose leaf teas, and "wellness drinks" like Matcha lattes and beet lattes.
I ordered a small Matcha latte. All of the drinks are made with almond milk, but can also be made with soy milk or oat milk. The latte was good, but it wasn't anything particularly different from what you can get at any other coffee shop.
The coffee shop was completely cashless, and it wasn't cheap — my small latte and a banana cost $6.53. Hot drinks generally cost $3 to $5, and cold drinks cost between $3 and $6.
Food options included avocado toast, beetroot hummus toast, almond oatmeal, banana toast, and various other types of toast. Anything can be made gluten-free or vegetarian, and you can add on different types of cheese, egg, avocado, or smoked salmon.
In addition to the freshly prepared food on the menu, there were pre-made baked goods ...
... bottled juices, water, and kombucha.
Like at places like Starbucks or Dunkin' Donuts, you could also buy Bluestone Lane coffee to brew at home.
