I have always had an excellent experience whenever I have visited. Never any issues, my drink is always perfect. I use the app to pre-order, just walk in and grab my drink or food, no waiting, all with friendly service from the employees that are happy and helpful. This is a convenient location close to downtown, close to the many hotels and just off the freeway. The staff as I said are very nice, this visit I also had a great little chat with Melissa the Manager. They have an outdoor patio, a drive thru and wide open seating inside to relax, hang out, work or whatever. The store itself is very clean and welcoming when you walk in. I recommend you check them out, use the app, save the wait, earn free treats and get a delicious drink. Let's bring up their star rating, this location has earned and deserves better ratings IMO. Enjoy!

Maybe it's the llama logo or the homey vibe of this place. It just has an unassuming atmosphere which I like. Haven't noticed any pretentious coffee snobs here, maybe other than myself. My wife loves this place too, and she really liked its regular drip coffee. I didn't see it but she mentioned this place has a tiny retro fridge on its condiment counter where they keep Half & Half. Such a clever idea. I usually get the Yama Blend whole beans and make pour over with it. Flavor notes are milk chocolate and baking spices. Service has been good so far, and the price is reasonable.
