    Lines get a little long during peak morning times but it goes quickly and orders were always correct for the volume they were producing. I went for matcha mainly and their food offerings while staying nearby and enjoyed the strong flavorful iced matcha made just right! Their haystack cookies were one of my favorites and grabbed one almost every day. Breakfast sandwich was hearty and delicious as well. They have a small area inside for eating and some tables outside too to enjoy your breakfast before heading across the street to the beach.

    This coffee shop has the prime location in Pacific City! It can be packed out the door with a line. There are some tucked away tables, but it's not a chill/work spot when busy. The iced latte I ordered was pretty good, but the hot one was just okay. I thought the sandwiches were delicious. Great bread that was soft and a little toasty! The beach bun was absolutely incredible!!! It was a little expensive, but some coast spots will be.

    This was my first time visiting Stimulus Coffee. Although the baked goods looked fabulous, I did not eat any food. However, on our three-day trip to Pacific City, I did purchase coffee here multiple times. Was this the best cold brew I have ever had? It might have been. The service was also great. Everyone who worked here was very polite and knowledgeable, and I really appreciated the staff. On a side note my 20oz cold brew was seven plus dollars. The ambiance is what you would expect from a coffee shop. It felt a little cramped to me, but there was a lot of seating. I had to do a Zoom session, and this was the only place in town with reliable WiFi, which saved me. Next time I am in town, I will be back.

    Stopped by this cute coffee shop on our way down the coast and it was great! Pictured is an iced caramel latte - delicious. They also had pastries and breakfast sandwiches. Plenty of room for seating and the service was fast. Drink prices were what you'd expect on the coast.

    Haystack Cookie- Dark and White chocolate chips, heath crunch, coconut, sea salt. Contains almonds.

    The low reviews seem to be mostly for service. And keep in mind they stay BUSY! While I didn't encounter any energetic smiles the transaction was efficient and pleasant enough. Loved the campfire cold brew special. Great haystack cookie and energy bite as well as the bacon egg & cheese sando. I'd return.

    Grilled cheese with mustard and spicy cheese

    Lines are insanely long, but they move through them pretty quickly. Sucks that they run out of traditional items pretty quickly and some items from online are not in the actual menu and vice versa. I ordered traditional cappuccino and traditional americano, both hot. They both were pretty good. Grilled cheese sandwich (more like a burger) has mustered and spicy Tillamook cheese and it's pretty good. Also had espresso cannoli and those are so good.

    The girls could've been a little nicer .. sucky customer service, plus the restrooms were dirty and wastebasket was full of trash .. and the one thing that sucked was the coffee maker was broke & the ovens we're brokeen down ... so no food... And no drip coffee... And they were complaining allowed in front of customers that there is no management complaining about that ... pretty good coffee though. Ambiance was nice for a seaside cafe

    I don't think they specifically advertise, yet the vibe of PC would lead me to surmise you are in a safe community. Have a great time!!

He proceeded to want to fight me outside the bar and kept interjecting when I was having a conversation with the bartender. The bartender and I were having a cordial conversation and learning where each other came from. She had told me she had came from Bend which was kind of cool because I had just came from bend earlier in my travels. The man said he had a grudge against me from the previous day where we had maybe a 2-minute conversation about pretty much nothing and he walked away. I thought that was the end of it. I came in today to get some food. Some sweets and a few drinks and head home like a normal human being. This man wanted to deal with his psychological issues pertaining to yesterday's incident when I had no recollection of said incident. I told him I knew nothing about what he was talking about the day before and that he seemed like a good-hearted person and we could have a good conversation. He proceeded to tell me that wasn't the case and that he wanted to have words and physically harm me in some way outside. He then was talked to by the bartenders and left without incident. I just don't understand how people can be the way they are when all I'm trying to do is have a nice summer vacation for myself and Liv in a way that keeps the peace. On a side note, the food is delicious. They have good prices on alcoholic drinks and their pastries are phenomenal. Just watch out if you see a bald guy that works there cuz I don't want other people to have to deal with that kind of confrontation. I hope everybody stays safe and that this person gets the type of help he needs to move through life. Cordially.

Since the internet never lies, I had to verify for myself. I wasn't disappointed! Are they the best? I'll have to continue my research to say definitively. The cookies are fantastic! I will definitely be recommending Sewell when the discussion of cookies comes up, which it frequently does during conversations with me. Service was quick and helpful when we asked about a cookie that we didn't understand. The atmosphere is nothing to write home about but all I wanted was a cookie so no problems there. If you are looking for quality cookies or anything else to satisfy your sweet tooth, look no further. Well, stop here, enjoy your treat and continue your research, but you'll be back to Sewell Sweets.

When I asked key to restrooom for kids , she said that if the key is stolen for frozation, it is also stolen for us. I hate to write negative stuff about small business. However if you are operating a downtown store and can't give keys to access restroom for kids, you lack basic common sense and lost my business and all the recommendations I can provide. You guys use the restroom - don't you? Can you not provide it for customers ?
