    Fantastic find. Very friendly service with a great vibe! I'm not going to lie I was geeking out a little over the connection with our favorite beverage to our favorite storyline! If you are a Star Wars fan or know a Star Wars fan or just like really great coffee, this is your sign to check this place out!

    I paid my first visit to DSC this morning, and the associate helping me guided me through the experience with friendliness and a great attitude. After I chose my beverage, a Bounty Hunter, she made sure I understood how many espresso shots would be in it and recommended that I cut it in half, which I did. What she didn't know is that I have atrial fibrillation, and I have to be very careful with my caffeine intake, so she likely saved me a lot of grief there. The drink, which features caramel and toffee, was freaking phenomenal and I will definitely be back. Oh, and I feel like they're missing a real opportunity by not having a coffee on the menu called The Death Star that is loaded up with 6 shots of espresso, making it the most powerful cup in the galaxy! 😆 12/10 for me!

    Liquid excellence! I like what I like. When I get what I want. From always smiling and friendly faces with great people and conversational skills, I'm going back. Good drinks + plus the excellent service from the ladies that work there = my money spent.

    Don't be lured by the gimmick and sugar, you can tell from the smell inside their beans are subpar and that they take the Starbucks approach of doing fancy drinks to cover it up. Nerds gonna nerd, if this Star Wars theme was a legit passion, I think we would see that reflected in the offerings of the store, but their coffee menu is basic American, not standardized drinks, and their pastries are from Costco. I drink cortados. This is just a ratio of equal milk to espresso. I didn't see it on the menu, so I explained and asked for it ice. The woman working confirmed and confirmed iced. Then she asked me what size I wanted. I was confused. The cup didn't matter. No matter what cup you put it in, it wasn't going fill it. If you have a 12oz cup for a small latte, this drink will take up just under half with ice. What did size matter? I relay being confused, she said she has it. Charges me $5. Gives me a hot one shot of espresso with milk. I knew it was one shot bc it was in a 4oz espresso cup. (So 1.5 ounce of espresso, 1.5 ounce of milk) A cortado at any other shop would cap at $4 + oatmilk upcharge. One shot espresso w/milk is usually $2, maybe $2.50. So she serves me this hot, one shot of espresso for $5, and I am trying to process how we got here when she looks at me like I have 3 heads, throws her arms up on the counter, and asks me what I want. Like. What I ordered. What you confirmed that I ordered. Autistic pause moment, then I walked out. At that point, there was no way it was going to be anything worth drinking.

    In town for 2 weeks from Tulsa Oklahoma. Stopped by to grab a coffee was welcomed by “hello and welcome to the dark side” they have more then just coffee they also have breakfast food and snacks along with “teas” that have lotus energy which is good natural energy from the lotus plant. I was recommended to try the Bounty Hunter coffee which was way better than Starbucks, scooters, and Dutch bros. Also got the Lightsaber Jolly rancher tea with lotus energy which was delicious especially if you like green jolly rancher with some energy. Definitely going back before I leave!

    Cheers to Sidney!! I asked her to make me a drink that taste like a cinnamon roll and she literally killed it!! The drink is delicious! My coworker that isn’t much of a coffee drinker, she made him a surprise drink (his request) and he loved it! Thank you for the AMAZING drinks and SUPERB customer service! ☕️✨

    I loveee the coffee, probably the best in town. I just get a little frustrated when I leave and realize they didn’t add the cold foam that I paid for. There isn’t really a way to correct them on the mistake and get the cold foam you paid for unless you want to wait in another long line. For as many times as I’ve paid for it and never received Darkside owes me a whole coffee. Also, cups are not durable for mixing coffee and milk (while driving). every time i picked up my cup the sides would cave in and the lid would pop off and spill coffee all over my car. to sum it all up the coffee taste great but the customer service could be better.

    We went to the pop-up and it was great. The "Bounty Hunter" was fantastic. My son and I are on a road trip and found this place by accident and we are so happy we did. Thank you so much to the girls that looked like my sister-in-law who was so sweet and wished us safe travels.

    10 out of 10 the ladies here are absolutely fantastic. They always make exactly what I need for the day with an awesome attitude and excellent customer service. Yes you will most likely have to wait it's a drive thru coffe shop so that is to be expected. However I will tell you it is worth the wait.

    This was my first visit and I absolutely loved the decor! There were only two ladies working so it seemed to take a minute to get our order but they were delightful to visit with and the drive through would be more convenient but you’d miss out on the inside! I ordered The General and had no complaints other then I should’ve gotten a larger size! Parking was a little challenging to find but it’s a good place to come in and enjoy a good drink and marvel at all the nerdy finds if you’re not in a rush. Overall some pretty tasty coffee!

    I was in North Little, AR, looking for a coffee shop with many reviews to try before starting my drive back on the highway. This place stood out for me due to its name and the many good reviews online! I came to their outdoor drive-thru coffee stand and ordered The Chewy--boy, oh boy, it was delicious and potent! The coffee was creamy with the perfect amount of espresso shots to milk portion. The service was fast even though I was in line with 4 people in front of me. I highly recommend this one if you ever try this coffee shop. If you live in the area, you're in luck that you can try a variety of their options!

  • 5/5 Suzanne A. 10 months ago on Google
    Great coffee shop! Very friendly and helpful service. A great variety of specialty drinks, I had the Chewy and it was great! A little on the sweet side, so I'll probably ask for less sweet next time, but nonetheless it was delicious. It was a little bit of a wait, but not bad and definitely worth the wait.
