Me and my bf have always loved this place. But this morning we stopped to get coffee before I dropped him off at work and he found two hairs in his drink. Really grossed out and paranoid to go back.
I found this little coffee shop about a month ago and the ladies are so charming. And though it’s aways from our place, I still go. Best coffee ever. I was a Dutch Bros junky, but since Dutch Bros doesn’t take cash anymore. Espresso Etc does, I’m hooked. My husband gets mocha not very sweet double cup. I get white chocolate and caramel. It’s so worth the drive.
This is the best place for coffee in Eugene. I tend to always order the same thing year round, 16 oz Mocha Frap, but in part that is because they make it perfect. I really cannot express enough just how satisfied I am with both the flavor and consistency every time I go to this place. It is not near me as I live downtown, but often my buddy and I will drive there just to get our favorite coffee drinks because we know we will be getting quality service and taste.
I don't recommend coming here if you're on a time crunch. Out of the times I have visited, only one of the baristas has been capable of making more than one drink at a time, and the rest don't seem to know the machine very well. Most of time if I get coffee, the milk is either lukewarm or just burnt, or I can taste how long the shots sat. I don't like to post reviews like this, but this morning was the 4th time that I have driven up with ten minutes to spare, hoping that I'll just be able to get my drink and run to work, and I sit there. And sit there. And sit there. One car in front of me, one on the other window. When I get to the window, the barista told me 'just a minute!' and then chatted up the other customer for another 5 minutes. At this point I had less than ten minutes to get to work, so I ended up just leaving without my drink. Again, this is the fourth time that this has happened in the couple of months that I have lived in the area.
The staff is always friendly. I love their new coffee shack, but the windows are a little too high. One time I drove in and had to honk my horn because the staff couldn't see me.
Staff are nice, my cold drinks are good for the most part(iced grn tea not recommended) but my hot drinks are WAY to hot! Today my mocha is sitting at 134°f after a 10min walk in 59°f weather
Milk should never be steamed past a 165°f I've worked for 2 coffee shops(local/Tully's)
Great Muffins and cookies
This is a quaint local coffee stand that is situated at the corner of Maxwell. It's just a short walk from most of the surrounding neighborhoods. The barista was really sweet and got us our coffee in no time at all. The stand is decorated with homely decor.
When the workers treat you with great service and respect,it because of the owners who care for their employees,and their all expert's at great coffee, 10+,,, double dare you to try a great cup of coffee,you'll enjoy it!...
It's right by my home so very convenient. Excellent caramel mochas and very friendly staff. It's great to sit on the bench and drink your coffee when the weather's decent.
