Peet's Coffee

This is the Sunrise and Cirby location. Imagine my surprise when, as I entered, I noticed this artwork hanging on the wall. To most people, this would just appear to be a cup of coffee. Let's just say, Peet's is 'Patriot Friendly', and leave it at that. Clean store. Great product. Usable App.

I ordered the Havana capacino and Bacon egg and cheddar borache sandwich . Both were amazing . The staff was very nice and helpful . I would recommend coming here .

Alfred Peet started a great thing over 40 years ago. I'm so glad that the Peets Corp still hold to his values and create wonderful coffee and tea for us to enjoy. There is now an app for us to rack up rewards just for coming here anyways! Cheers fellow Peetniks!!

Always friendly and the best coffee and good selection for breakfast

Let's put it this way, there's a reason why Peet's Coffee is a major chain. Everything is very good.

This shop was good just really busy! The drinks were just as we ordered and the staff friendly. Only going 4/5 due to the crowded atmosphere - not anything in their control. Although I do think it would help if Peet’s opened another location in Citrus Heights…

I've said it before, this is my favorite place to get coffee.

The speed is excellent. The Starbucks across the street couldn't even spill coffee without making you wait 20 minutes first. This Peets gets your order out quick.

The drinks are made very well. Whatever I order comes out right every time.

Very friendly staff too.

My go-to coffee shop!! I love the entirety of the staff, they always cater to my crazy customized coffee orders and are super friendly no matter the day! I do my best to always tip and I think others should consider it as well, because this location in particular has staff that works so hard and so quickly and efficiently. Try the iced white chocolate mocha next time you’re there. :)

Great location! Frank has great customer service.

PEET's COFFEE "unisex restrooms" or "unisex public toilets" DO NOT HAVE PAPER TOWEL DISPENSERS.

DISCUSSION:
Both restrooms have "Dyson Air Blade," electric, hand driers, that in my personal opinion, in my non-medical opinion, and in my non-healthcare opinion are dysfunctional. The electric dryers operate for much, much less than 20 seconds continuously. Personally, I have never been able to properly dry my hands.

QUESTIONS:
Q1 ¿¿ How do customers (and employees (baristas)) exit noted restrooms or toilets without contacting a contaminated surface, the door handle ??
Q2 ¿¿ Do baristas and other Peet employees have access to an employee's only sink for hand washing ??
Q3 ¿¿ How long does it take for hands to air dry according to established guidelines??

ANSWERS:
A1: I DON'T KNOW.
A2: I DON'T KNOW.
A3: "They found that using a drying time of 5 seconds with cloth towels would achieve 85% dryness of the hands, but using 20 seconds of drying time under hot air dryers would achieve less than 70% dryness."†

†Cunrui Huang, Wenjun Ma, and Susan Stack; Mayo Clinic Proceedings,
The Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research."THE HYGIENIC EFFICACY OF DIFFERENT HAND-DRYING METHODS: A Review of the Evidence."

CONCLUSIONS FROM ARTICLE:
ONE. "From a hygiene viewpoint, PAPER TOWELS ARE SUPERIOR to electric air dryers."
TWO. "Drying hands thoroughly with single-use, disposable paper towels is the preferred method of hand drying in health care."

ADDITIONAL ARTICLE INFORMATION, Mayo Clin Proc.; 2012 Aug; 87(8):791–798.

ECONOMIC DISCUSSION:††

The Air Blade hand dryer saves up to 98% in paper towel costs while saving energy and the environment. For example, at 400 uses per day, the Dyson Airblade would cost about $67 per year to operate. Paper Towel usage would cost around $2,920 for the year.
