The chappie Chai was the worst coffee shop beverage I have ever tried. Extremely bitter yet bland,…read moretexture thin and watery yet also like low quality protein powder grainy, I couldn't believe I didn't take it back. I think after four years of excellent beverages here it has taken a while to face the facts with inconsistent experimental specialities. The price gouging has also become difficult. Tiny right ounce servings at regular full sixteen ounces prices ruins the forward thinking espresso vibes. Alongside with the remodel that ruined the cool couch nook, less space here, free parking is nice, location right down from the airport is neat, but sadly there are much better options that haven't pumped up prices and leaked out extra for it. I highly recommend Sacred Grounds, Eleventh House, and Wanderlust where quality, value, and consistently are prime.

The donuts are in cases at the counter. The clerk rattles off the popular donuts and includes the apple fritter. The fritters are part of their specialty donuts and are large. The clerk is friendly and explains that the donut makers come in early to make the donuts. They sell coffee too - it's self serve and only $1.29 for a small cup. Nothing fancy. Just coffee. The apple fritter is huge and was perfect at $3.69. The apple filling was delicious. I recommend and will be back soon.

There were two cars in the parking lot, so I went to the entrance off 16th Street but couldn't get in. I then tried the lab door, where I could clearly see two male employees inside. They looked directly at me but didn't acknowledge me, offer assistance, or let me know if they were closed. I sat in my car for several minutes finishing this review, and no one came to check or communicate anything. Extremely disappointing experience , no customer service, no professionalism, and no clarity about whether they were even open. Based on this experience alone, I would not return.

If you like teas that are not ridiculously sweet, you're better off going to greyhouse or Starbucks.

On our first visit they had no bagels and had to do the sandwich on a ciabatta roll which was fine (but they also didn't have bacon on that trip either).

I tend to like coffee that's well balanced, medium roast, and not too acidic, and they had a wide variety. It would be nice if you could buy just a cup of coffee, as I'm usually in the mood for a cup when I go to buy in bulk. Also, I wish they were more covid-conscious, as the woman working there didn't have her mask over her nose, and she kept getting too close and touching me.

The blend's taste catches you off guard by hitting the back of your throat, is full bodied, and something to sip on and enjoy vs chugging to make it through your work day. The owner, Dudley was patient enough to chat with me over the many blends he has in stock and give me a highlight of the depth of knowledge he has about his beans, and the worldly coffees he offers.
