So many reasons I love this coffee shop! Delicious drinks,…read morefantastic people, a great vibe, a cool/funky location, and a great local business/gem of Uptown Racine (*a tip for the uninitiated: knowing where to turn off of Washington Ave is very helpful, as there are some one-way streets. The parking lot is behind the building and can be accessed from Ann St. or Owen Ave. If you are going thru the drive-thru be sure to turn on Owen St. (west of The Branch at 1501/Esperanza). See map in photos * Delicious Drinks! Our go-to's are: almond milk and lavender lattés, cold brew with frosted mint and a splash of cream, raspberry lemonade, Jamaica Agua Fresca and Maui Wowie (we've tried many other of their concoctions as well, and not been disappointed) and Pup Cups worth working for!! This is our dog's favorite coffee shop ;) * The people! Sergio and his team are genuinely warm friendly people. I stop by regularly, in part, just for the bright spot it adds to my day * The Vibe! Fun, creative, friendly, funny: they have fun daily poll questions, occasional simple while-you-wait art projects * The Cool and Funky Location! It's in a renovated bank! And you can get your drinks thru the drive-up teller drawer, or sit inside in an open, spacious, warm and well-lit great room. I've never seen a better use of a bank building in my life. Support a local business that adds its own delicious flavor of hope (a.k.a. esperanza) to Uptown!

It was so fun to find it on a corner like a standalone house with a full parking lot. They also have an enclosed patio which I can only imagine would be so fun during the summer. We got the cherry cordial cold brew, and the matcha flight. The cold brew was good, it had the hints of cherries with in. I loved the matcha flight, honestly the vanilla matcha as basic as that sounds was my absolute favorite but I cannot wait to try the chai flight! For breakfast I got the caprese sandwich and my husband got the breakfast burrito and we split it. Both were great, the caprese sandwich was delish! I keep thinking to myself I need to try to make that for breakfast now because it was that good! And for our sweet treat dessert we got the carrot cake whoopie. It was good but it felt like there was too much cake to the filling ratio, I almost feel like it needed to be half the amount of cake. Overall a great experience! The staff was nice and the shop was so cute to hang out and work in! Can't wait to come back and try more.

The right atmosphere is here to sit alone to contemplate or read, or to chat with a friend or play a game of chess but ceramic espresso cups and saucers are a basic requirement.

This location is very finicky about accepting coupons on the DQ app…read more I love DQ. I also LOVE a BOGO coupon for a blizzard, I'm not going to lie. But..... sadly.... This location, despite having nice staff and great hours, is very fussy about accepting coupons from the DQ app (and probably any other coupons if they exist) so, don't drive out of your way to use a coupon here, you will probably leave disappointed, as we did tonight. For many times I came to this DQ, they had a sign on their drive thru saying they didn't accept coupons in the drive thru. OK- no problem, I can park and come in. Now they have had problems accepting them inside as well. At first it was "oh our scanner isn't working today" and now it is "it stopped working so we just won't honor it". Hmmmm.... OK. No problem. There is a Culver's across the street that mails me coupons on physical paper and they don't seem to have a problem accepting them. So, if you're hoping to use your DQ app to score a deal, I would maybe try the other DQ's in the area. Or sign up for the Culver's Club emails.
