I was a little bummed out after I signed a lease in Seattle and found out that my new-found West Coast lifestyle would include a commute to and from Tacoma every day. I was slightly less bummed out after I found out that this place was right on my way to work. The girls who work here are really friendly and all-around awesome. Plus they make a mean non-fat vanilla latte. I'm pretty sure my patients don't realize how much they should be thanking this place for my patience and good mood. (From here on out, I'm referring all the cranky ones to Cutter's Point for a cup of coffee and a muffin top.) read more

Super cozy atmosphere and great drinks! The first time I went in, they forgot my order and when I went up to see what was going on, they immediately acknowledged they had forgotten and gave me a coupon for a free drink on them next time. So considerate! A really cozy place where you can keep to yourself and get work done, or come to visit with friends and catch up. Great coffee shop! read more

oh boy not very good at all first of they don't even serve anything smaller then a 12oz. Second the coffee itself is not tasty as it seems that they rely on flavored syrup to do the work for them. Cutters Point is basically Starbucks, just rebadged. read more

After years of ordering a Mocha Frappe from any coffee place I went to, I've concluded that Cutter's Point makes the best one. Not only is the taste superior to others, but the graininess/smoothness of the ice is by far the best blended. I come to this location whenever I'm in town, and the baristas are always friendly and even remember me even though I only go every so often. My only complaint is that there is only a 50% success rate of me getting whipped cream when I ask for it! My taste buds get angry, but my pancreas is thankful! read more

What is with the reviews on here? When I first came here occasionally I did not expect anyone to know my name or treat me the same as someone who has come in every morning for 5 years. And I appreciated the fact that they knew and interacted with their regulars-- why is that a bad thing? I started coming in here to work more when I moved into a more flexible position and appreciated the service even more. The baristas not only took time to get to know me but went out of their way to make my daughter feel special-- making her special treats and even asking for a copy of her school picture to pin on their bulletin board. Now she cant wait to show the 'coffee girls' when she gets a new haircut or outfit. A cutters just opened a block from us but we will continue to come here for the service and relationships. read more

Great coffee! My wife had the white mocha with the lavender and I had the oatmeal latte. Unique drinks and they were both delicious. If you don't like your coffee too sweet then I would recommend the oatmeal latte. read more

Mocha, decaf, soy, no whip- They made it perfectly. Staff were friendly, greeted me as I walked in. Very comfortable setting, lots of places to sit and enjoy your coffee and a treat. They have a Drive-Thru, nice on those rainy days of Pacific North West. I plan to make it a regular stop, give it a try. read more

Great local coffee shop with very friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere. Happy they are still open. Great breakfast sandwiches and did I stay the team was super friendly. read more

I've been here to buy coffee and sit about five time in the past two years. Every time I leave thinking how much I do not like it. The problem is the staff. Loud, as in yelling back and forth loud. Not angry, mind you, just obnoxiously loud for no apparent reason. Unless one is immersed in one's smartphone wearing earbuds and listening to music the ambiance in this cafe is unfortunately ruined by the circus-like atmosphere behind the counter. I really don't think any customer enjoys being forced to listen to the baristas' latest personal trials and tribulations, physical ailments, complaints about their boyfriend, etc, etc. read more

Great coffee shop, ordered their Salted Butter Caramel Latté and Vanilla Bean Smoothie using a recent Groupon deal. Vanilla Bean was better than Starbucks and the Salted Butter Caramel was great too. Staff was very courteous and quick with the service as well. Highly recommend! read more

Came in at 10-am-ish and was greeted by friendly baristas. They seem to know a lot of peoples' names and had a lot of frieindly convos with the regulars. And my white mocha was DELICIOUS. If you're looking for a place to come have a fun coffee date with a friend this is the place to be. But I was looking for a little quiet - which I did NOT find. By the time I left at 11:30 or so, the place was full of families interacting with the staff (including one staff member's cousin or nephew or something who was hoisted in through the drive-thru window!). It felt more like a playground than a coffeeshop. Much too noisy. In all, great coffee and friendly service but a bit boisterous for me! read more

I have been a long time customer of this location and recently went through the drive through. My order didn't seem right, and I didn't have time to address it since I was at the drive through. I sent an email about my complaint which was immediately responded to and remedied. It restored my faith in this location and showed that Cutters Point cares about their customers! read more

First off, one of the best coffees I've had. Yes, I'm used to Peet's and Starbucks, but you can immediately tell the difference on the quality of coffee. I ordered the skinny vanilla latte with soy and it came out with amazing flavor. I also had their blueberry muffin which was very moist. Pricing is competitive and flavor is well worth trying out. read more

Staff can be rude if you don't have their "look". They prefer regulars and are short with nonregulars. Though the coffee is amazing. The prices are decent and bagels are yummy. The have a fairly wide selection of drinks and eats. read more

Coffee is average, service is horrendous. I've been here 3 times in the past few weeks and every time the baristas were very short, rude and in a major hurry. Maybe they would treat you differently if you were in a suit and tie or covered in makeup. After reading the reviews I felt better knowing that I wasn't the only one with this experience. As convenient as this place is, I'm never going back. read more

Horrible coffee, and then try to cover it up with way too much syrup. If a barista doesn't know how to make an iced Americano she should probably choose a new profession. The manager was dodging phone calls because she was "with a customer" aka planning her wedding for Dec 5. read more

There's bad coffee, and then there is Cutters Point Coffee. Since the espresso shots are consistently burnt to the point of tasting like your grandmothers Pall Mall ashtray, I decided to go for a simple black drip as a last ditch effort to stick with them. Not to my surprise, even that was an abysmal failure. One sip through my straw presented me with a mouthful of grinds. If you even remotely have a discerning palate for quality brew, avoid this place! read more

Poor service. Not friendly and extremely slow. Keep on driving to the next coffee shop don't go here!

I'm not sure why some other reviewers had such a bad time here. The baristas are some of the friendliest people I've met, and they always make me and my friends feel welcome. The food here is delicious-- the cake pops, pumpkin scones, and breakfast burritos are to die for. The coffee is so tasty-- you can have free refills of drip coffee for as long as you're in the shop. Their Fisherman's Blend roast is so delicious that I bought a bunch to brew at home. This has become my go to coffee shop-- I love it! Make sure to request a loyalty card when you go! read more

Rude barista. Most of them are nice but one has been rude both times I have gone. Asked if water is added to their iced americanos and the barista replies "an americano IS water" in a snooty tone. Actually, I have been a barista and get coffee at more places than yours and not all shops add water. A lot just pack with ice (sure it's frozen water but doubt you were thinking that). So I ordered it packed with ice instead of water and the barista says "uh ok, so you're okay with it being 3/4 full then" and I said "yes". So they make the drink...it's the wrong size. When I asked about it and was told it still had 4 shots and the same flavor, I said it was fine. As I was driving away, heard the same rude barista ask the other barista at the window (who was nice the whole time), "what was her problem?" I get coffee every day and have never had an issue at other coffee shops, so not sure what your problem is, girl. Will not being back. There's a lot of other coffee shops that come without the brat barista. read more

The only good drink that they have here is Coffee Toffee Crunch, Nothing else. The servers there are generally nice but I don't usually go to a coffee shop to chit chat so improving their coffee quality would be a good way to attract customers :) All of the drinks are extremely sweet with little coffee. I always order extra espresso shots but still...never turned out exactly how I wanted it. I really want to support Cutter Point but Starbucks always make my coffee perfect thus I don't go here as often as I could. read more

Coffee is good, but it's better at Cutters Point. No burnt flavor substitute here; just good new fashioned everything else. Cute professional staff hastily accommodating your bean-liquid starved taste buds with wondrous chopped, crushed, brewed, and sometimes whipped delights (with extra h). Yeah, the owner looks like a douche, but at least his tidy coffee shop makes you addicted to GREAT QUALITY SERVICE, NICE PEOPLE, and FREE INTERNET. Ask for anything more and be a disease-free pimp with only cute hoes. Yeah, not likely. Go here. Drink up. You may not get a number, but you will leave with a warm satisfied belly full of The Best Corporate Coffee in Tacoma. read more

I have to say I do not like Cutter's Point coffee - drip or otherwise, but the staff are SO NICE. The pound cake, breakfast burritos and sandwiches are all good. The space is nice with a variety of customers. Plus the Groupons make this place a steal. read more

Best owner and best coffee in Tacoma! Everyone is super friendly and they always greet you with a smile.

This coffee shop is near my house but I had have time to try since last time my friend gave me Groupon. I tried and addicted to the white mocha in this place. The coffee is more flavor. It's a little bit sweeter than other places. The barista are nice. This place is cool and clean. read more

Coffee is good depending who makes it and this places saves me money on tips since the baristas are so stuck up

Baristas are so nice and thoughtful. I just started work in the area. They give me a discount because of where I worked. I thought it was nice. Quick, Friendly and have creative spins on classic drinks. Whiskey caramel Macchiato or Toasted Caramel Frap just to name a few. I ll be coming back as long as I work in the area. Inside is clean and plenty of seating. read more

I am so happy that this place is right down the road! I just moved to the area so I stopped in to have try them out. They were very welcoming and made me a delicious cup of coffee. I also tried one of their breakfast sandwiches it was much better than Starbucks. They use a Panini press after heating it up briefly in the microwave so the bread doesn't get chewy like it does at Starbucks. Their pumpkin spice latte is one of the best that I've had. They don't use too much syrup, so you get to indulge without feeling like you're drinking a bag of sugar. The prices seem reasonable (maybe even a little less expensive than some places). read more

They have a good chai and good coffee. The reason I didn't give 5 stars was because I went through the drive thru and no one greeted me. I sat there for about 3 minutes. I moved my car back and forth thinking maybe it was me. Nope. Nothing. I drove to the window... no one there either. Wonderful. read more

I went to Cutter's for the first time & had a great experience! I noticed the reviews here were kinda blah but I still decided to try it since I was near by. My go-to is a simple Cafe Au Lait with either Almond Milk or Hemp milk & the girls made my beverage perfect! You'd be surprised how many baristas actually mess it up. I went through the drive-thru & it was fast, the girl at the window was so friendly, & their coffee itself is tasty! If you're near by, just try Cutter's. They're not a complicated hipster coffee joint. They have a lot of straight forward things to choose from & they're friendly! read more

I love coffee and this place knows how to make it. Their sandwiches are great as well. Very nice and clean place. There is wifi here. Love to come here and study. read more

Cutters Point Coffee - Very nice and spacious place! Perfect for studying ir meeting. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Feels like the Cheers of coffee shops! They remember your name and drink. The girls are so friendly and genuine!

This is my favie coffee place! Not only are the girls lovely, they are sweet and make the best vanilla chai with soy ever.

As someone who works in the service industry as a Customer Service Rep., I sometimes find myself a little over critical of others in my line of work. I have been to this shop a few times and the first time was excellent! That Saturday, I was in the area so I decided to stop in the drive thru; I was greeted very quickly and the lady was very nice. I loved the Coconut Frappe so much, I decided to stop by that Monday morning on my way to work. I sat in the drive thru for quite some time before I was greeted and the woman who was making coffee brought my drink to the window, said nothing to me, other than she liked my nails and turned and walked away. Well, this was a Monday morning so I just figured, meh...it was early and let it go. I went again a few days later, on my way to work, mind you this is 6:30 in the morning and the place did not appear to be busy. Again, I waited a good few minutes before I was acknowledged. I pulled around after giving my order and there was one car ahead of me. The same lady who didn't acknowledge me the last morning I was there, handed the man in front of me his drink and proceeded to hang out of the window, talking to him for a good 5 minutes while I sat there. Again, she handed me my drink and walked away. If I decide to stop here again it will most definitely be in the afternoon when the staff is more friendly. read more

This is the BEST coffee in Tacoma! Always consistent, you get exactly what you order, and the food products are amazing. Super friendly staff, incredibly helpful, and I'm never rushed even when I'm sitting here in a meeting for more than an hour. I highly recommend this place. Tom P read more

Grreat coffee, fast service. I mean if your looking for some good coffee, buddy you found the place. They're usually on par with Starbucks, usually better. One gripe though is there's one annoying chick in the morning crew who talks very loudly for a lady. Yes I am a chauvinist, thank you for noticing, and do believe ladies should really stop trying to imitate men in their shouting abilities. Save it for the bedroom would you? But beside that, this place gets it perfect every time as far as the coffee goes, feminine qualities not so much. read more

Toasted coconut mocha and red velvet latte- need I say more? I am a die hard Starbucks fan (I know, I know) but wanted to try something different. This Cutters Point has a great seating area and easy going atmosphere. They have some neat photographs of the Tacoma Narrows on the wall. We've been a few times and have always had excellent drinks. Lots of different types of seats- couch, large tables, cozy tables for two or the bar. Or, if you are in a hurry, drive through available as well. I have visited once when there were no seats available, but otherwise no complaints. I don't think I can say this enough- coconut mocha!! read more

Great baristas and quick staff. I come here most mornings for my coffee and muffin. Always delicious Americano and the muffins are always moist ( I hate the word but it's very true). read more

I am more impressed with Cutters Point all the time. There are several locations in the area, but what I appreciate about the company is their local connections. The coffee is roasted in Gig Harbor. Alycia the barista has been working for CP for 8 years, 7 at that location. She is efficient and friendly. I deliver bagels to this location (disclaimer-some bias on bagels), but when I'm off duty and need to suggest a place to meet, I suggest this CP. It's in a cool neighborhood, and a good place to hang out. Lots of repeat customers. read more

Great coffee! Great atmosphere! Lisa and Alycia make the early weekday mornings awesome!
