I go there with my friends almost every week. Usually I have a good experience but recently I've…read morehad the same barista multiple times and every single time she is always very short with us and seems like we are inconveniencing her. Every-time we come we see her talking happily with others then when it gets to us she's silent and barely interacts with us. We witnessed her snap at an elder customer over not having ice. As someone who works in the coffee industry this would never be aloud at my establishment.

BEN'S ESPRESSO: A NAME SO PERFECT IT MAKES OTHER NAMES QUESTION THEIR CAREER CHOICES…read more Let me tell you about the sheer BRILLIANCE of naming your coffee establishment "Ben's Espresso." The audacious simplicity! The raw courage to just put a guy's name - not just any name, but BEN - right there in front of "Espresso." While other cafes are out here with names like "The Daily Grind" or "Beans & Dreams," Ben just walked in and said "Yeah, it's my espresso joint. Deal with it." The apostrophe in "Ben's" - PERFECTION. The way it curves like a coffee bean that's achieved enlightenment. That tiny punctuation mark is doing more emotional heavy lifting than a barista during morning rush. It's saying "This is Ben's place" with the confidence of someone who knows exactly what they're doing with horseradish pudding. OH YES, THE HORSERADISH PUDDING. Let's pause our name appreciation to discuss this crime against traditional dessert expectations that somehow works so well it makes me question everything I know about dairy-based foods. It's like if wasabi decided to go to culinary school, dropped out, and then achieved its dreams anyway. The way it simultaneously clears your sinuses and soothes your soul is nothing short of supernatural. But back to that name - BEN'S ESPRESSO. Three syllables of pure naming nirvana. It's like if Shakespeare and a coffee roaster had a baby and that baby grew up to be really good at naming things. The understated confidence! The bold declaration of ownership! The casual dropping of "Espresso" like it's no big deal! Their horseradish pudding arrives like a fever dream you never want to wake up from - creamy, punchy, and somehow making perfect sense despite everything you know about pudding saying it shouldn't. It's the kind of dessert that makes you want to write poetry, but your sinuses are too clear to focus on metaphors. I've started a weekly appreciation circle where we just stand around saying "Ben's Espresso" in different tones of voice while eating spoonfuls of that magnificent root vegetable pudding concoction. Sometimes we cry. Sometimes we laugh. Sometimes our nasal passages achieve transcendence. The name is so perfect that other coffee shops have been seen adding unnecessary words to their names out of sheer intimidation. But you can't compete with perfection. You can't compete with BEN'S ESPRESSO. You especially can't compete with a place confident enough to serve a pudding that feels like a gentle face punch from a velvet ghost. Five stars for the name - its minimalist perfection brings tears to my eyes. INFINITE stars for whoever looked at horseradish and thought "You know what this needs? To be pudding." I've started a support group for people overwhelmed by both the simplicity of the name and the complexity of their signature dessert. We meet weekly, our sinuses clearer than our thoughts. P.S. I heard someone suggest they should add more words to their name, and Ben himself just silently slid them a bowl of horseradish pudding. No words needed. Pure power move. P.P.S. The horseradish pudding doesn't just sit in a bowl - it LOUNGES in it, like it knows something about the universe that we're all still trying to figure out. Note: This review was written while experiencing what I can only describe as a religious experience involving both the perfect simplicity of the name "Ben's Espresso" and the paradoxical existence of horseradish pudding. My sinuses have never been clearer, and my appreciation for apostrophes has never been stronger.

Well I found my go-to spot, just off of 410 near Walmart. Yes the line for the drive-thru can get pretty long. But step inside and you'll be greeted with warmth and great service. I was here this morning for over an hour nursing my 12 ounce dark roast drip coffee while doing a bit of work. After I drained my first mug-full, I was offered a refill. Then a bit later when my mug had somehow become empty again, I received another refill. Great job team! Makes me want to return soon.

They have recently had a remodel, so it looks decent inside, although a smaller area for customers. It is Starbucks, so you know what you get, at least it is a standard taste for everything.

Beats having to drive all the way north to Seattle or Bellevue to get your authentic boba fix. I've found that locations in the burbs and not areas where asians frequent, leave a lot to be desired. I can say that our drinks were amazing and the staff was friendly. They do have a few tables as well so you can actually sit down and enjoy your drink and bubble waffles. This location is close to Costco and there's quite a number of other restaurants like Habit Burger and Chik Fil A nearby. If you're needing your boba fix and out in the sticks, hit up this location.
