Dakota Coffee Works

Coffee (Ethiopian) was decent. Better than McD's but not worth the wait. Service was the real disappointment. Counter was ran by some 20 something's and I waited 10 minutes to be acknowledged while they chatted with their friends at the counter. The customers, who were also 20 something's and friends with the employees, ate their food at the counter, chatting away, unaware that others were waiting behind.

The drinks are rather inconsistent as there seems to be no formal instruction on how to assemble the drinks. The staff is usually pretty friendly, and there are a handful of devoted "regulars" who frequent the shop. As Dothan still doesn't have a freestanding Starbucks, this shop is the best bet for a decent coffee on-the-go.

The best Frozen White Chocolate Mocha in town! Love Dakota Coffee and will always continue to support our small businesses ❤

I'm going to say it this place is better than Starbucks! The drinks are just more creamier and richer and seem to be made from care! The Staff is really nice.

We are regulars at Dakota Coffee. Our order is always a large carmel latte and a large nitro with cream and sugar. 99 percent of the time our order is perfect. The other one percent is caused by one guy who consistently makes my latte too weak so it tastes like nothing more than sweet milk. Train him better or let him go and I'll give you 💯.

During my visit, all of the employees were sitting at one of the tables eating pizza. When a customer would come in, one of the employees would get up and make their drinks. This only bothered me for sanitary reasons. The employees were not washing their hands between eating pizza and making the customers' orders. Dakota plays nice music, but it is very loud, making it quite distracting to those studying or reading. I also thought it was a little irritating to be charged 40 cents extra just for whipped cream when most places offer it free of charge. Dakota isn't my first coffee shop option, but they do have good drinks.

Love the atmosphere and great service. Always good coffee, sometimes great coffee. Would give 5 stars if the product was more consistent.

Always my favorite spot to go! They always have my drink ready when I walk in!

Decent for coffee drinks like frappes and lattes. Not so much for real coffee like cappuccino or macchiato. That iced mocha is DELICIOUS!! It was super hot inside.. almost uncomfortably hot. And very dated.

Always loving the local coffee. Starbucks is great, but this team is so personal, friendly, and slower (but that's a good thing when your focusing on people). Coffee is great and consistent 👌
