Merchant Coffee

7:30 on Sunday morning, I'm trying to enjoy a coffee and the nyt and the cleaning lady decides to do a deep clean of the place. Shaking dusty mop and spraying tables. Maybe she could figure out a better time?

(PS: five minutes later she comes back to do the whole place with a mop. Hard to relax and enjoy the day with the custodial crew moving everything around and bumping into things)

Hippest place in the area.
Drip coffee, black, HAS GREAT FLAVOR.
Their coffee machine is top of the line and you can taste it.
Mochas, lattes, and other drinks are also tasty.

Comfy seating with plenty of wall outlets and fast wifi.
Overall a wonderful place to come.

Great coffee and atmosphere. Friendly staff who is knowledgeable about coffee. Comfortable couches and chairs to sit on while you enjoy your beverage and breakfast.

I don’t know why it didn’t post...

It's amazing how it seems like Covid doesn't exist here in Prescott. The building is a collective and there is a lot of businesses inside, the coffee shop being one of them. When I walked in with my siblings we were shocked that we were the only ones with masks on. The staff didn't even bother to have masks on either. We got our drinks and sat outside because of the amount of careless people inside. Also the amount of hateful stares we received for having our masks on was messed up. And honestly some stares we received from customers was that we were also the only people of color inside and that made us uncomfortable. They would look at us and then whisper to each other. When we finished I went back inside to toss our cups, and I went to respectfully ask a Barista if there was a mask mandate in effect. I found out that the Mayor has not implemented any mask mandates in Prescott.

I told the Barista "Ok. But as a small business you guys can enforce it for the safety of your customers and staff". He replied "well our customers appreciate that we don't enforce masks". I was left dumbfounded. He also mentioned that Covid is a personal problem.. yikes. Covid is definitely not a personal problem. This is a worldwide problem. While I was talking, the other barista and some other employees (from the other businesses) looked at me like I was crazy. I proceeded to tell them that it's very possible that someone in here without a mask has Covid and is spreading it around the whole building. Not one sign of concern from the guy. I just felt like I was talking to a wall. Being personally affected by Covid (caught it in June), having friends pass away from covid, this situation made me sad to think that there are people that just don't care about the well being of others or in this case, the well being of their customers. And that apparently it's a "personal problem".

I will say the Coffee was good. They carry Provision Coffee which is good quality coffee. It is also a nice building, but the atmosphere, the stares, the lack of care is what ruined our experience. Never coming back. Do better!

I have been here a few times, each time my latte is perfect! There staff is friendly and professional, with a high quality espresso machine and a phenomenal drip coffee brewer!

This isn't the 1st time I've had top quality coffee here. And yummy flat whites as well!

They messed up my coffee normally I never have any problems but I guess you need to be a coffee expert to order any kind of coffee.

Quality business. Definitely check this place out!! Ownership and staff who are genuine and dedicated to providing you with the finest, whole, ingredients in everything they make. Ask about pressed juices!!

Wow this place is amazing! First time here and ill definitely be back. I got an americano for $3.. can't beat that! Its got a fun chill vibe and the employees are very nice and helpful.

Excellent coffee -- very cool atmosphere with the tavern, barbershop and coffee all in one. Very unique.
