“ The most excellent oat milk chai ever! 55 Green Stars. This was a very brief visit while I waited for a friend to go for a walk around Piedmont Cemetery on a sunny Friday afternoon. What better way to spend a Friday afternoon? Im so glad that I stopped in at the Ride Bar because it was a very pleasant experience. I asked for an oat milk chai and have to say that its probably the best chai that Ive ever had certainly top three. I think that its homemade since the mix was in a jug rather than a package in their fridge. It was actually the baristas first time making a chai, so a great success all round. I also bought an apple and thats also noteworthy almost the only time Ive ever bought a piece of fruit at a cafe. They coaxed me over to the healthy side with their cunning omission of pastries from the menu. Their main food offerings are fruitgranola bowls yes, including acai and oatmeal. They are focused on smoothies, but dont ignore their killer chai. Nice counter spaces with WiFi and power outlets and also some outdoor seating. Im giving Ride Bar 55 green stars for social and environmental impact, based on the following Almost all plantbased. Vegans just check for honey. Almost all made from scratch down to the nut butter. Coffee from Highwire and tea from Blue Willow The menu says Organic and Woman Owned at the top but it wasnt clear which ingredients are organic besides the oats which are listed as organic on the menu. Would be good to get some clarity on that as its a prominently displayed selling point. Giving the benefit of the doubt for now Womanowned business. Waste reduction they have mason jars prominently displayed at the counter, on sale for 3 each. Interested in writing green star reviews? If so, please check out the Green Stars Project. ”
