The Perks of Life

Best cappuccino I’ve experienced in Idaho thus far!

I've been coming here since they opened 15 years ago! Incredible family run business- everything is incredibly delicious and made with love. My favorite coffee shop of all time.

One of my favorite coffee places in Boise area! Locally owned. Baristas are skilled and knowledgeable. They also serve excellent gluten free homemade pastries, which are hard to find in other coffee shops. Excellent quiche as well, and tasty lunch items that vary day to day.

As a former Seattle coffee snob, I've tried most of the coffee shops in the greater Boise and Meridian areas trying to find that perfect espresso. There are only a few places that make a cup worth drinking, and Perks of Life is among them. They use excellent quality ingredients and will pull a second shot of espresso if the first one doesn't meet their expectations, all before you even receive your drink. They are fast, but not rushed and don't overheat their coffee - meaning you get a nice smooth drink full of wonderful texture rather than a over-foamed or under-textured burnt drink.
And once you've stopped by a few times, they'll remember your order. Excellent service.

Great breakfast burritos, coffee, and baked goods!

A really nice and relaxed place for a cup of coffee and a bite to eat.

Newly remodeled back room is very comfy. The coffee is delicious and the pastries, too. Excellent service

Both the food and drinks are top shelf. Excellent selections of coffee, tea, beer, and wine. There are delicious sandwiches, scones, and muffins. The shelf of board games is a nice touch if you want to come in and sit down with someone while you enjoy a delicious Hot Fire mocha with cayenne or a house made cold brew. If you're in Eagle and want a coffee I can't recommend this place enough.

Gosh, I love this place. I would give it more than 5 stars if I could. They have fresh and delicious food, amazing coffee, and the friendliest staff (but not obnoxiously friendly like that one drive thru chain). Unfortunately, due to my youngest having severe dairy and egg allergies, we can no longer indulge in their scrumptious pastries, savory breakfast burritos (by the way, their salsa is LEGIT), or delicious quiche, but we CAN enjoy their delectable coffee with almond or coconut milk. If you frequently drive by this place but haven't made it in yet, do it. You won't regret it. Plus, there is a cute little chalkboard table to keep your littles busy while you enjoy your coffee. #supportlocal

I've been going to Perks of Life for years! They have great coffee with baristas who know how to make a quality latte or cappuccino. The baked goods are always amazing and the friendly folks who work there make my day just that much better. Love this place!!
