😠 I’m going to be completely honest here. Anything with Batdorf and Bronson coffee should be good and they have it.. Really cute coffee stand with a nice menu. Breakfast, snacks and coffee. 2 out of the 3 gals that were met seem to be sweet. However not all employees are of quality personnel. Gal with...

    I’m going to be completely honest here. Anything with Batdorf and Bronson coffee should be good and they have it.. Really cute coffee stand with a nice menu. Breakfast, snacks and coffee. 2 out of the 3 gals that were met seem to be sweet. However not all employees are of quality personnel. Gal with black hair, red lipstick however is not . Your business is only good as your employees and the faces of your company. As a business manager for a local company this rings exceptionally true . She is truly Inconsiderate has Improper communication skills and getting a coffee here felt like high school all over again. And I am decades past that moment. I was given ridicule for not properly asking for a drink, and was given zero moments to correct myself before she walked off and made a huge scene with the other two gals. Finally after multiple awful looks at me and the other two looking back after what she said, she decided to walk back over and show up to listen to my order. Unfortunately people that go to Starbucks and don’t know the hipster language for a coffee apparently seems to be too much for this young staff. After a two dollar tip from a $4.75 drink. Even in the worst of moments I was told here is your shiny new quarter, with her double take at it and a funny look.I grabbed it and a punch card. I noticed it wasn’t a quarter at all. An elephant car wash token.slightly gold in color, smooth on the ridge and the size of a larger nickel My wife and I Will never return. I Will gladly over pay for quality customer service elsewhere.

    We just left there, we were there 5 minutes to close (the window was open and we saw her taking the garbage out, but didn't know they closed at 5pm) and thought we'd be able to get a drink. Instead of telling us that they were closed, she hid in the back of the shop and waited for us to drive off..as we pulled away we saw her close the windows. It would have been better if she just said she was closed instead of hiding away from us. It definitely discouraged us from returning from that customer service. Please don't ignore us. Usually when I go it's fantastic. But sadly this one visit with my husband wasn't.

    My son and I go here and we always love it. He goes a lot more then I but I have never gotten a bad drink from here. Plus the employee are always so friendly.

    Love their creative names and flavor combos. Braristas at the most part are pleasant. Mind you patience is a virtue when ordering. Value of their drinks IS legitimate. Punch cards are fun, and like the fact that they offer items. Drinkware, snacks more than jus sweets, and hats now that the weather is cooling down.

    The coffee is always delicious! They have monthly specials that are always worth a try and the baristas always smile and are friendly! ❤☕

    Honestly really good coffee, some of the absolute best in the area if you are looking, and if You're on a road trip, this is the stop, close to the highway, with a little parking lot to stop and stretch your legs, and a gas station one exit away. I live close, and it's a great morning stop (although it gets a little busy, but not crazy) for one the way to school or work. We've known the baristas forever, they are very friendly and are always helping out, and being overall kind to us! If you want coffee and don't mind a little drive-thru, this is the perfect little spot for you, highly recommend!

    Those girls put their foot in those lotus drinks BUT THE GOOD WAY. They have the best lotus combinations if you're tired of having the same one everyday like I was. My favorite is the pink lotus with watermelon and coconut w coconut milk. Or the passion fruit fusion red lotus. Go check this place out period

    I dont stop by coffee stands often. Whenever I stop here, my drink is always perfect. For me, that says a lot since they don't "know" what I normally drink. Always has the perfect flavor.

    10/10 - TRUST ME, I’m the pickiest person on the planet when it comes to coffee and I can confidently say I’ve never had a bad drink from there. Never, not once! Their coffees are delicious no matter who makes it. Plus they give you these little chocolate covered espresso beans which totally enhances the experience. It’s worth the drive if you’re out of the area! 🤍🖤

    Would have been good except the barista had on strong scented hand cream or perfume so now every sip I take tastes like her scent

    Hubby loves their coffee. One of the few that actually steams the milk before adding as he asks. That way it doesn't cool the coffee. He will drive us out of our way to go here.

    I just adore this gal! Every time I'm in the area, I stop and get a drink because she's so pleasant to talk to. Very friendly and kind. I just wish they'd keep an adequate supply of hemp milk on hand. I'm not from the area, but the past two times I made a special drive out there (because they're the only stand I know of that carries the 3 ingredients for my drink... White lotus, lavender, hemp milk), they've been out of hemp. Other than that, I love this stand! ❤️

    These ladies are always so delightful and helpful and make delicious coffee on top of it. I change up my order depending on my mood and everything is always tasty. Their specials are also delicious and creative.

    I usually don’t leave poor reviews, But when spending five dollars on a latte, I expect actual coffee flavor, and no coffee sediment with the last quarter cup of coffee.

    Great service, delicious coffee! I'll admit they do tend to have long lines and their menus are a little dated.(they list items no longer carried) but the friendly staff more then makes up for the wait and off great alternatives!

    Eh, the last three times I've been here and there was ample time between each visit, I've been disappointed. There isn't enough syrup in the espresso drinks to taste sweet and this last time I got a red bull Italian soda and asked for blackberry coconut and when I pulled out and tried the drink it tasted like cherry. So I won't be going back. Super disappointed.

    Pretty great coffee! I have always had pleasant experiences at this cute little shop.

    This place has amazing coffee and assorted drinks. If you can’t find something you love here then you really weren’t Thirsty! The staff and owner are wonderful and are a huge part of the community! My current obsession is the blackberry vanilla Italian soda loaded with my Lotus! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    This has always been my favorite coffee place but I haven’t been there in about a year until today. My husband and I both got coffee well, ordered coffee, and it tasted like hot milk with barely any flavor and definitely no coffee. It was disappointing to say the least since it used to be my go to coffee place and we waited in a long line. I’m sure I will be back again but hoping the girls that made the coffee read this so they know they might not be making it right (or they just got busy). My husband and I got home and put a shot of coffee from our espresso machine in each of our cups and it tastes a little better.
