I've
been
a
loyal
customer
at
Standing
Egg
Coffee
for
years,
even
before
the
pandemic,
and
I
always
wanted
to
love
this
place.
However,
the
rising
prices
and
changes
in
their
offerings
have
made
my
experience
more
of
a
"meh".
I
still
go
there
for
their
coffee,
just
not
one
of
the
top
choices
anymore.
I
fondly
remember
the
days
when
their
ham
and
egg
sandwich
cost
just
$5
for
the
whole
thing.
It
was
a
scrumptious
combination
of
egg,
tomato,
ham,
cheese,
and
thin
apple
slices.
At
one
point,
they
even
included
small
fruits
for
dine-in
customers.
The
price
eventually
went
up
to
$8
for
a
whole
sandwich,
then
it
jumped
to
$7
for
half
the
sandwich
and
now
more
recently,
$9
for
the
whole.
To
make
matters
worse,
they
changed
the
recipe,
and
it's
just
not
the
same
anymore.
I
used
to
drive
30
minutes
just
to
enjoy
their
sandwiches,
but
now
I
no
longer
order
them.
On
a
positive
note,
their
Americano
is
still
very
good,
even
if
it's
a
bit
overpriced.
The
London
Fog,
leaning
towards
the
sweet,
caramel
side,
is
just
okay.
The
yuzu
soda,
ades,
and
peach
colada
smoothie
are
decent
summer
options,
but
they're
now
somewhat
overpriced
as
well.
Their
Jasmine
Peach
Iced
Tea
is
a
winner
with
its
clean
and
refreshing
taste,
but
it
has
also
become
more
expensive,
going
from
around
$5
to
nearly
$7.
The
atmosphere
at
Standing
Egg
Coffee
remains
nice
and
cozy.
If
you
plan
to
study
or
work,
you'll
need
to
grab
one
of
the
spots
near
the
windows
by
the
front
where
the
power
outlets
are
mostly
located.
They
also
have
a
small,
decent
bookstore/gift
store
at
the
back,
which
is
great
for
quick
purchases
and
gifts.
In
conclusion,
while
Standing
Egg
Coffee
retains
its
nostalgic
charm,
the
rising
prices
and
changes
in
their
menu
have
diminished
the
overall
experience.
Though
there
are
still
some
great
options
available,
it
no
longer
holds
the
same
irresistible
appeal
that
it
once
did.
