Sad Donkey Coffee

I get coffee here every Sunday to get my surprise Sunday latte from caleb. Very easy to talk to and always gives me something good. Caleb is a great asset to the team, making the experience phenomenal.

If you like hole in the wall coffee shops, this should be on your to do list. It was a cute little shack surrounded by air bnbs and a nice outdoor sitting area. The coffee was yummy and gave me energy to walk Cedar Lake Gardens.

I got a Vanilla Caramel Iced Latte and it came out just right. My sisters got a S’mores iced latte and that they feel needed a bit more sugar. I love going to high quality coffee shops and glad you can find one in a small town like this. Just wish they were open later

Ask for Caleb and he'll hook you up with the drink you deserve and desire. Enjoy!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

September 2022 update: Better than last time. They were open and ready for business! I've stopped by a few times between my last review and today's and they were closed during business hours. C'est la vie. So! I ordered from a very cool barista with melon orange hair, and she knew how to make everything tasty. Large iced coffee with a splash of milk, SF vanilla, pumpkin cold foam. It was perfect, albeit their cold brew could be a more bold (not everyone sits on the fringe of society like I do when it comes to dark roasts). I'll update from 2 to 4 stars. Because while the service was 5 ⭐, the cold brew really should be created in, and stored, in a glass carafe to maintain the bold crisp flavor.

March 2022: I was really looking forward to having a good cup of coffee here, and did. I ordered an iced latte with sugar free vanilla. The iced coffee was in a plastic jug from the refrigerator. That's when I should have walked away. I was *expecting* it to be fresh, or somewhat, maybe not from the bottom of the Rubbermaid jug. It was stale and silty. Watery. The coffee hit my guts like a ton of bricks. I had to run to the bathroom. I am an avid coffee drinker and coffee brewer (gravity fed brewer and siphons). I like to chew my coffee, this was just bad.

Interactions: The barista was underwhelmingly there.

Price: Meh, $4.50 for a large.

I will give this place a second go, but will order something hot. Perhaps it would be better? Until then--2 stars.

This place is a super cute spot to meet, work and relax with a cup of coffee or baked good. Definitely my new place when I come here to work with my clients. My iced coffee was black (how I like it) and was amazing.

Very small space. No indoor seating. Coffee was good. Staff was friendly. Mug for sale was cute. Not fast, but it was ok for us. Yes, we would visit again.

Lovely staff. Tasty drinks. It's in the middle of a few Air BnB tiny houses, so it took a second look for my friend and I to find it, which is only "complaint" here

Top notch espressos pulled from a La Marzocco machine. Precious to have a place like this in such a small town

Kristin was my barista. She was extremely kind, and made me a delicious iced dirty chia!
