One thing I love to enjoy when I go shopping at the Barnes & Noble in the woodland mall is the fact…read morethat I can grab a drink from the Starbucks directly inside my favorite bookstore!! The convenience is impeccable, honestly two things couldn't go more perfectly together than coffee and a good book to immerse myself into--total relaxation. Ah, what a great place to relax or have a fun day with my family or catch up with friends!! Last time I got the chance to have a Starbucks drink was Valentine's Day and my husband ordered this strawberry drink for me, it was light and refreshing, quite enjoyable!! The service was speedy & friendly!! Always a pleasure to visit my favorite Starbucks!!

Your job as a barista is to also explain in a professional way what the drinks are. There was no reason to be rude. You never know what people are going through so just be kind.

Sweetwaters is always a good idea if you're looking for speciality coffee and pastries! I used to…read morelive right above it so I would frequent this place a lot. It is one of the bigger coffee shops in town (space wise), they have plenty of tables and seating if you want to work or study from there during the day! I also found that they have some of the best hours compared to other coffee shops in town, although these times do change often so I would check their social media for updates. The baristas are nice and patient and its a self serve counter that you order and pick up from. There is only street parking (and limited) so watch out for that. Other than that, I highly recommend! They also recently started doing a lunch deal where its $6 for a bagel AND coffee which is pretty amazing. Not sure how long it will go for but definitely check it out!

I did an online order from Sweetwater's My reflections are…read morenot going to be on delivery due to the fact that it was a third party that delivered it not Sweetwater's the self. The drinks were really good I absolutely despise anything with matcha in it but I decided to go out and try some it was really good however for the price and the size of the drink I feel I got a little scammed there and was a little disappointed but the drink was good I got another drink called the caramel iced dragon I asked for no whipped cream due to the fact that I'm lactose intolerant I have whipped cream. The service was really well The drinks were great I just wish they were bigger for how much you pay for them that's taking off the tax that the third party applies-

This is a wonderful cafe in downtown Lowell! Their food is all homemade, so it might be different…read morewhen you come, but everything my siblings and I tried on the 2 days we came was delicious. As a few others mentioned, it's not the fastest service. We waited on average about 10-15 minutes each day for food/drinks to be ready. Overall it was a really positive experience and I'll definitely be back!

I'll be honest- our experience here was rough…read more Was the food good? Yes. The coffee? Also good. The issue was how long it took for them to fulfill our orders. We ordered 3 hot beverages... a hot chocolate, a breve latte with sugar free vanilla and a normal vanilla latte. We sat inside the cafe for nearly 30 minutes before our drinks were ready, surrounded by other grumpy customers. We overheard the shop saying they were closing early because they cannot handle the load of orders... the place was busy, but nothing different than your typical coffee shop on a Saturday morning. (See photos for reference) Overall, if you're in a hurry this isn't the place for you. But, if you can afford to wait 20-30 minutes for your coffee then no harm in trying them out.

Really pretty location and pretty clean. The service is a little slower but there's only one person…read moreworking with a lot of customers. The gelato is pretty good too. I am a little disappointed in the cookie I ordered though. For a almost 5 dollar cookie I expect it to be soft and warm, not cold and hard. But overall I'll go here for a quick dessert/caffeine hit. Not the pastries though.

Foxtail Coffee is like a fancy Starbucks or Dunkin! I enjoy the environment and the coffee is…read morepretty good as well. Menu items also make me think of Starbucks. Service is very friendly and I think the baristas are knowledgeable. Overall this coffee shop is replacing my normal Starbucks run, so that's why I keep making this comparison. So far I've tried all of their seasonal fall drinks and have had multiple bagels and breakfast sandwiches. My partner also got their lemon loaf cake (like sbx) and he liked it. Prices are a bit high, but that's expected in Ada. Parking is easy to find when it's not busy and, bonus points, it's free. 4/5 stars!

I always like to support local coffee shops whenever I can, and usually do. However, sometimes I…read morejust like the ease of customizing my drink on an app, and Starbucks is great for that. I recently stopped in to get some work done and have a meeting at this Starbucks. It's pretty large with plenty of seating, but it was quite busy when I arrived just after 9 am on a weekday morning. They had tons of mobile orders going, but it seemed like they were keeping up with the crowd. I decided to try a new to me drink, the iced honey apple flat white with oat milk. It was good, but not as good as the iced apple crisp oat milk shaken espresso. I really like being able to specify the number of pumps of syrups, level of ice, and more on the app. It's a bit loud in this space, but nothing some good noise cancelling headphones can't take care of.

A fantastic Starbucks. The food and drinks are exactly what you'd expect, and the atmosphere and…read moreservice time are top notch. If I didn't prefer supporting local, this would be a regular spot for me as it is great for meeting with people or working on your own. Good job, Starbucks.

Qahwah is a coffee shop I had been wanting to try for a while, so I am glad I finally made it in…read more The space has a great vibe. It was fairly busy, but we were still able to get a table. Overall, everything was solid. The Qishr was good, though I think it could have used a bit more kick. Aside from that, the coffee was excellent and the rest of what we tried did not disappoint. I also had an organic mango juice, which was fresh (even though it came in a bottle) and really enjoyable.

I recently went to Qawah House with a friend! It's a place my friend Janelle has constantly…read morerecommended. I never realized that it's located so close to the movie theater and Meijer Gardens! I would absolutely stop over there before or after going to one of those. There's ample parking and it's within the general area of the movie theater. The spot itself has a good amount of seating and some of the coolest decor. There is a massive wooden art piece detailing history which is so fun to just sit and read. The staff was more than friendly and polite. They gave us some really helpful information and recommendations for drinks. We didn't end up eating any of the food but the honeycomb dessert looked incredible and my boss has said that the spinach pie is amazing. I really loved my strawberry matcha! The drink was beautiful and tasted really great!

An absolutely beautiful spot, very walkable town and if you're nearby, stop here for sure. I got a pumpkin spiced latte because apparently we are in the season already. This is what the other PSL spot wishes it could taste like. The people were friendly, the coffee was delicious and it's a spot you could sit at and get work done.

So far I've only had a plain coffee and a mocktail, but both were very good! We also received a bag of coffee beans for Christmas that were really a treat to grind and brew at home. They sell whole beans or ground coffee, which is great for those of us who can't get into town as much as we'd like to pick up a coffee. They're a great additional to downtown Rockford, and I'm excited to watch them grow!

I've only been to one other Scooter's and it's still kind of overwhelming to me. The menu is pretty…read morelarge and all the drinks have cute names and lots of ingredients. We were at our vet across the street so Nate and I decided to stop by for a treat. They were featuring Elf-themed drinks, so I got the candy cane forest mocha and Nate ordered the swirly twirly sugar cookie latte, lol. We both had a chuckle at the silly names but they do go with the movie. The person taking our order was super patient and friendly, then had us "scoot around to the window" which always makes me laugh out loud, like do they hate having to say that? Our drinks were handed over quickly and they were sweet and delicious. They do serve some food items, as well as lots of other hot and cold drinks, teas, smoothies, Red Bull infusions(???!!), and blended drinks. I would say it's a pretty similar menu to Biggby. Scooter's is a drive through only, no inside space at all.
