Best coffee in salt lake for sure only wish they had a couple more food options. People are always nice and chill

The service is quick! They are super friendly and very convenient, and I love that they are there, leaning into the art from the whale and continuing the brand on their corner of the street. Cannot say enough about the friendly staff that makes stopping by such a pleasant experience. Thanks for all you do! read more

Super tasty and consistent drive thru coffee shop located in a convenient spot on the way to the university of Utah or downtown. I always make a pit stop here when I'm in the 9th and 9th area. Don't miss out on their frozen blended mocha or their honey oat milk lattes! read more

Caffe Expresso - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Salt Lake City, Utah

My favorite place to grab a quick cold brew or dirty chai. Their coffee is always strong, which to me, means delicious. Great people, quick service .. can't ask for much more read more

Dad blasters are on point!! So good! Caffinated lemonade with sparkling water!!! Give it a go

Yummy local coffee! Fairly priced, with the nicest workers! Their espresso breve is delish every single time.

Honestly the drinks are kind of mid. Definitely on the more pricier side, in my opinion. The drinks are not bad, but they aren't anything too crazy. This place is a drive through coffee shop, with the option for walk up. The drive through lines can get a bit long but they typically move fast. I have been going here basically everyday for the past 3-4 years. I can't stop going here though because I would literally sell my soul for the workers here. They're so incredibly friendly and even go beyond by always remembering my order. This place is my ride or die for this reason. BTW - Try their "dad blaster"! A carbonated lemonade with caffeine in it. read more

My daughter told me about this drive-thru coffee shop. After trying their frozen mocha, I was hooked. I've been here dozens of times of times before, and their frozen mocha is pretty consistent, nice and creamy with a added chocolate covered coffee bean on top. Lately I'v been ordering one with an extra shot of espresso, but can't really tell a difference in taste. This is a tiny drive thru, with two drive up windows. Your order is actually taken by a live person, not someone on a speaker, which is nice. Draw back to this place is, it can be very busy with long lines, which sometimes can take forever. I'm guessing it's due to all the drinks are made fresh, which can take a minute or two, with all the fancy coffee drinks people drink these days. read more

You can't go wrong with visiting either location. The service is always fast and friendly. And the coffee is always perfect! I've had a variety of drinks and all are great! There are 2 lanes to pull into for ordering. Don't be deterred by the long lines, it always goes fast! read more

Don't drink much coffee but Staff and everyone was extremely friendly, service was fast and the coffee was even better

My favorite place to get an iced green tea latte. Don't be terrified of the long line. They are super quick with getting your drinks out. And friendly too! read more

Caffe Expresso - Iced Green Tea Soy Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Salt Lake City, Utah

This is one of my favorite coffee places in Utah! BUT, went there last week. Not. A single employee wearing masks or gloves. They also don't have a no touch paying system. Their employees take your card still, bare hands, and then hand you your coffee. It's insane. I hate leaving a bad review like this but they have to change this. Ps. I reached out to them privately TWICE last week. They ignored me. Otherwise I would never have left this review. read more

Amazing Coffee and Service!!! Their Egg Nog Latte is a great holiday staple. They even gave my dog a treat which was the sweetest touch. PS saw that review about them not wearing masks and felt the need to say that was definitely an outdated review because every time I've gone they've been wearing masks and have a sign up for you to wear yours as well. My new favorite coffee shop in SLC for sure!! Thank you to the staff!! read more

Caffe Expresso - Dog treat for my bubs thanks to the friendly staff!! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Salt Lake City, Utah

Love cafe expresso & everyone of their locations! Wonderful drinks & get a punch card while you're there! That way you can accumulate enough stars to win yourself a free drink, yay! Love that they have drive thru's, it is quick and easy to get a drink from them but because of lack of space not the best place to do work or to study. read more

This is our go-to coffee spot in our neighborhood. The employees are part of our tribe here in SLC. They know our names, our kids, our random dairy free preferences, etc. Making a stop at Caffe Expresso is one of our favorite activities, whether it's a quick drive through or a walk up one weekend morning. Great people, great coffee and just all around great local business. read more

I went here one early morning for coffee. I quickly went in the roundabout way since it was so early and there were no cars in sight. The lady taking my order was really nice. I noticed the manager (I think?) came out instead to give me my drink. I recognized him from previous times and thought he might be just saying hi. Instead he told me I shouldn't enter the drive-thru like I did. It was not a pleasant way to start my day and seemed passive aggressive. I'll avoid this place in the future. read more

everything I could possibly ask for in a coffee place & more! they have three (?) locations that I know of, two in sugar house & one in millcreek. i've been to both sugar house spots, but this one on 9th & 9th has better service & coffee tastes a little bit better as well, however the other one has outdoor seating. my husband & i try to come here as much as possible, his sister & her boyfriend live nearby, so we hit it up whenever we come to hang with them. I've yet to find a better coffee place in utah, the granita with an extra espresso shot is my favorite coffee drink on the planet. my husband loves this as well as the aztec mochas. on top of some bomb ass coffee, they have a hassle free drive-thru, (as well as a walk up window for all you bikers/dog walkers), insanely low prices, I'm talking $10 for two drinks, complimentary espresso beans, free dog treats (whether or not your pooch is present), & they're still one of the ONLY coffee places that I frequent that still have "buy 9 get the 10th on us" style punch cards. I'm telling you, this place can't be beat. my husband & i are moving from utah valley to salt lake county in the spring, & finding a house within close distance to a caffe expresso may or may not be on our list of requirements.... read more

Caffe Expresso - 24 oz granita w/ one extra shot of espresso - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Salt Lake City, Utah

We love love love our neighborhood caffe expresso! We never drive (because two blocks), and the cute staff are always friendly and quick about our drinks. Doggie always gets a treat too. Taste is wayyyy better than that of Starbucks fare. The punch cards are great for returning customers, and we enjoy viewing the kitschy gnomes and statue ephemera on property. Go here for your java needs! read more

I've been frequenting the 11 East location since the start of the end of days...admittedly, they were the only coffee shop that managed to stay open. But how pleasantly wonderful it has been frequenting them, which I still am! Their prices are fantastic ($3.25 for a latte) which was something I could manage as I saw my own job opportunities shrink overnight. The staff is efficient, coffee if gooood and above all, friendly as hell! My new favorite coffee place. read more

As previously mentioned, "Freakin' amazing people work here." I ordered a small latte, and after ordering, I realized I did not have my card on me. I called over the guy who took my order and told him what happened. I felt utterly awful to be "that" guy, but he assured me it was okay and said that since the coffee was already made, I could come back some other time and pay for it then. Better yet, the latte was great, and the service was prompt. I think I found my coffee s​pot.​ read more

This is my go-to, dependable coffee place. I was a little skeptical at first because of the whole drive-thru thing, but they have consistently impressed me every time I visit. The espresso never tastes burnt, the drinks aren't too sweet like Starbucks, and the people that work there are so friendly! I think this place kicks Coffee Garden's butt any day of the week! read more

Living in a neighborhood that prides itself on coffee snobbery, this is the only place I will get my coffee. You don't need skinny jeans or a mac, and you definitely don't need to be drinking the burnt swill that is served at the Coffee Garden (I'm lookin' at you, Ibis coffee). The employees at Expresso are extremely friendly, and they make your 2 minute interaction a lovely experience. You know that you've got a good joint when your employees can make even feigned interest enjoyable. Plus, FREE dog bones for the poochies! The best coffee since Seattle's Best left town. read more

I love lattès, and this coffee shop makes some of the best in town. They offer 32 ounce iced drinks for a very reasonable price! Brian is the best! The crew there always recognized us and our order! 32 ounce, 6 shot, toffee but latte with almond milk and a little honey. Fantastic baristas, quick service, drive thru and bones for your puppy! Right on 900 south! You won't be disappointed. read more

I've been coming to this location for about 15 years. I came to the walk up a couple of weeks ago, mid-day, and was met with a shock: although busy, in the mornings in the past the barista has always taken my order. Not so this time! The barista on this day ignored me, and the female employee taking car orders literally pushed me out of the way not once, but THREE times. I said, "I guess I won't order anything, then." And as I walked away, the female employee said, "Hey, in case you didn't notice, there's a lot of CARS who were here before you." Yeah: cars! Be nice to your customers, or they won't be back. After 15 years, I'm not coming back here again, because of the rudeness. The coffee is good, but the customer service on this day was enough to leave a bad taste forever. I attempted to direct message the business on social media and got no reply. read more

Best coffee in Salt Lake City. And that's saying a lot, considering this city is packed full of cool hipster coffee shops. But caffe expresso's coffee flavor beats them every time. The iced coffee is cold brewed so it tastes rich and flavorful. And at $2 a cup, you can't beat that. My bf and I are regulars here and every time we have a great experience with the quality of the coffee and the service. Super friendly staff! Great prices. read more

In my teen years I pumped gas on this very corner; now I walk there for coffee almost every weekend morning. Coffee is always great, as are the baristas. Very crowded during commuting hours, but they keep the crowds moving. read more

Caffe Expresso - a sign for a coffee shop - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Salt Lake City, Utah

I have been going to Caffe Expresso since it opened in 1995, and love everything about it, until now. These past few weeks I've tried to support the local business, stopping for coffee any time I go out. However, every one of those times, NONE of the employees have been wearing masks. The one who comes up to my car to get my order and stamp my car? Nope. The three people working tightly packed in the booth making coffee and interacting with me (it's closer than 6 ft) for the transaction. Nope. I even offered a mask to one of the workers, and she declined. All employees should be wearing masks. It's not about them, it's about the customers they serve. I asked the person taking my payment whey they weren't wearing masks, and he said they were all isolating other than work and that it seems so impersonal. My comment back was that there is nothing MORE personal than caring for another by wearing a mask to protect the customers you're serving. Come on, Caffe Expresso, you can do better than this. read more

I can't tell which I love more, the staff or the coffee. I drink my coffee black, so I know when the beans are top notch. As for the staff, I sometimes find myself grabbing a coffee just so I can say hi! read more

I love this place these guys are so great! They are always friendly, service is fantastic and my drink is always spot on! I get a double tall Americano, with extra cream and sugar. My drink is simple, but always made with love! I love starting my day off at the old Cafe Expresso, sometimes I end my day there too. It's for sure a highlight for my Husband and I , we're big fans. Great job you guys! Thank you for helping me start the day out right, or getting me through the second half of my day. ;) read more

I love this place! Only downside is the wait time - it is quite popular. We go here on the weekends. There's not many coffee places that use almond milk, and this is one of those places. I get my almond milk mocha fix here every week. Yummmmy! I always have a good drink here. Baristas are awesome and friendly. Highly recommended. read more

I go here daily. 16 oz. iced Americano with cream and sugar. Cheap and delicious. Also, gets the "pick me up" job done. The staff is great and they always make me feel appreciated and always make my day better. My dog loves it too because he knows he's always going to get a bone :) read more

For many years I used to get a non-fat latte on the way to work. I learned to love lattes here. They were good. What has happened, Cafe Expresso? Every last latte I now get tastes burned and undrinkable. I've given them multiple chances, thinking it was an off morning. They are now always bad. Won't be going back. read more

I travel to Salt Lake City fairly frequently. This is a MUST stop each time (multiple times)! The coffee is amazing (we get a bag to bring back home with us, it's so delicious) and like others have said, the baristas cannot be beat! So friendly and talented. Do yourself a favor and check it out! read more

Always delicious, lovely people work there. I'm from NY and have always been picky with my lattes. They get it right each time and super patient with me. read more

Cafe Expresso has taken the best of 9th and 9th and moved to 9th and 11th. It is really a great cup... the Americano is awesome - latte's are extreme - and the signature V's coffee chocolates (available seasonally) are amazing. Cafe Expresso has it dialed in with great coffee, fast service, excellent snacks and quick eats. For a drive, bike, or walk up coffee - this place rocks it! The other locations on the East bench are just as awesome. read more

Freakin' amazing people work here. When you pull up, you're treated with delightful people who are stoked to work in this little box and there's good vibes being generated out of it into your coffee. There's always a chocolate espresso bean for you and I always leave a tip for wonderful people working in here. Favorite spot read more

Lots and lots of coffee stands in Salt Lake City...not many of them I'd drive out of my way for. It's a great place and most of the employees have been there for years. The iced coffee (and all of their drinks) are the best I've tasted. They learn your order quick, too. Just great people and vibes with awesome coffee. read more

Quality service and quality drinks. Whether it's a coffee, Americano, or Grasshopper (minty mocha), these guys and gals rock. They are our favorite coffee establishment. We are always approached with a smile and upbeat barrista, no snobbiness and very quick lines given how busy this stand can get. My boyfriend has frequented this place for 15 years, I started going with him. Many of the employees know who he is, but even when I go alone the employees are friendly. We will definitely be back, and you should go too. read more

They have a really Interesting location but their coffee is totally worth it. They are fast and friendly. I always go there for a "granita" or a shot-in-the-dark. Please make one of this next to campus. read more

Good stuff. Friendly and fast service. Cool drive-thru window. My wife really likes the coffee here compared to other shops. Same with a few of her friends. It's a small place too. No indoor sitting. It's only the window. Kinda different then most coffee shops. But whatev's. Works out well. Keep it up guys. You are doing awesome. read more
