Raining Berries

I got the avocado toast with tomatoes and a lavender honey iced latte, so freaking good! Definitely will be going back. Pretty cheap for coffee and food! They also have some cute spots withing rhe store to take cute photos for Instagram! I loved the aesthetic of this place and the workers were really nice too!😊

Raining Berries is a Starbucks competitor which does many things well, but misses the mark on some minor details. I recommend this place heartily, with caveats.

If you're into coffee, be sure to ask for recommendations. The staff is pretty knowledgeable, and their regular brew tastes burnt and bitter to me. It reminds me of Starbucks Pike Place coffee, which I also don't care for. But they have many other brews available and can help you get the flavor you like. They have a latte, espresso, Americano, tea, etc. They also have the sweeter drinks which, as a low carb guy, I don't drink. A huge bonus is they don't upcharge for things like almond milk or real cream. They also have several pastries and sweet "bowls" (like coconut, granola, etc.). Again, I'm low carb, so I didn't try any, but they do look good.

The lounging area is very nice. The tables are all a beautifully lacquered unfinished wood. However, the size of the tables are all just a little too small to get all my work stuffs comfortably situated. The high back chairs are beautiful. The light fixtures are all retro filament lighting which give a nice visual cue for the shop, but put out too much light. On the wall is a magenta neon sign (think T-Mobile pink) which casts hot pink all over the front of the shop. There's also a big conference room which you can reserve for $50 an hour, and a bargain for what it is. And finally, the Wifi is excellent, full stop. They understand their shop is a nomad's office and they serve this function very well. There are dozens of outlets in the floor for all the computing devices you need charged. It would be neat if they took this a step farther and gave you wireless charging in the tables, but nobody is doing that right now.

My favorite part of Raining Berries is its comfort. At 9:00 on a Thursday, I'm sharing the space with one other patron and three employees. The employees are very responsive and kind. They see I'm working on something and are respectfully letting me do what I need to.

I hope Raining Berries can compete with Starbucks across the street. It is qualitatively better than Starbucks. The experience is nicer and the atmosphere is friendlier. For now, I will definitely come back and consider this one of those secret finds. I will cross my fingers they will dim the lights a little. But even with those problems, this is good.

Service was great - the bowl could have been WAY better. They had about 2cm of Acai which was super small compared to the granola that was put in the bowl. So it basically was a granola bowl. The dining area was messy.

this place has just gone downhill. the staff is so unwelcoming. the girls today were laughing loudly at a customers name because it wasn’t a normal name you hear. i felt so bad for that customer. anytime i’ve come in lately the staff seems so catty and unfriendly. i don’t think they realize the whole place can hear them when they’re in the back room too

Honestly, I think this place has better açaí bowls than Grain and Berry. It’s also super cute inside! Good range of coffees too. The cacao nibs are definitely a level up, although they tasted more like chocolate chips - I’m used to the cacao shavings. Yum!

Fun casual atmosphere to have coffee and a sweet treat. Great location to have a small group meeting in their conference room.

All about the gram.

This place looks cool, has unique foods, but the customer service is a little lacking and the service is VERY slow.

Otherwise, a fun experience.

I love the aesthetic, beautiful flower wall, it’s such a great coffee shop to stop in and pick up my favorite, lavender latte!

I only gave this review a 4 because every time I hit curbside to go and put in my vehicle description I have to call every single time to let them know I’m in the parking lot. I even added tip in hopes that they see that and will wonder if this gracious customer is waiting for their delivery in the parking lot. I do this on the mobile app maybe they don’t see that it’s curbside? Not sure but other than that the food and service is great I just wish they would fix that one little issue!

I’ve been to this place many times and have always loved it. However, this time the service was very poor and the avocado served in sandwich was stale and they didn’t even add salt in sandwich.
