Mad City Coffee

I was more comfortable there yesterday because the maskless employee was not there. I know the mandate has been lifted but people are still getting Covid and dying.

My thanks to the staff who are trying to keep us safe the only obvious way they can. Besides getting vaccinated.

Roasted coffee in house! Amazing variety. Best coffee we have had since we moved back from Holland. Staff is nice. Place is clean. We are looking forward to catching the love music one of these days. It's a nice place to meet your neighbors!

A little hard to get to if you're not familiar with the area, however this place has some excellent coffee. 5 flavors on hand and much more to choose from if you would like to take a pound or two home with you. Good breakfast sandwiches too and a nice dining area.

They have some great roasts avilable. My wife and I get whole beans there once a month. Great for the neighborhood and we don't have to drive. Prices on the roasts are average. We do like the way they store the roasts so we can get the aroma of the coffee before we buy it. A few more staff members might be needed, as we seem to wait awhile for our order every time we go in.

Woke up especially early for this cappuccino muffin and hot chocolate. Worth it.

Trying to open a cool coffee shop is the dream of many and the accomplishment of few. Mad City Coffee has earned its place among that rare few. It is hipster friendly without being obnoxiously hip, and they put real efforts into quality drinks. Despite the reputation of coffee shops being filled with people tapping away on laptops, working on their novels, sneering at the "suits" who "can't appreciate good coffee", Mad City is usually pretty empty, barring one or two tables with a group of people chatting. This makes it a perfect place to work on my novel and sneer at suits. I jest, mostly, but it's seriously a great place. It's probably for the best that I don't work near enough to make it a reasonable trip, or I would be broke.

When my daughter was born at the hospital nearby and I was too delirious to drive, I walked to Mad City and a big iced tea restored my sanity. That's the other nice thing; they don't take part in the tea vs coffee wars, their tea selection is just as impressive as their coffee selection

The best coffee I've had in Columbia! Strongly recommend the Ethiopian and Tanzanian coffee, but everything is roasted beautifully (in-house!). Cold brew also delicious in season. I haven't had the food *yet* but everyone's plate that I've creeped on tells me that I'll be happy when I do. Service, to top it off, is always friendly and it's one of those rare places where most everyone behind the counter helps out where needed. A nice place for a quick coffee, a boardgame with friends, or a serious work session.

I called to place a carryout order for lunch. The phone rang quite a few times. When the employee picked up the phone & I told him I wanted to place a lunch order, he said "I knew you wanted something- the phone kept ringing and ringing." I said, "Never mind" and hung up.

Just an ordinary coffee stop. They only offer soy milk or regular dairy... I can have neither. The coffee was just alright, and they completely forgot to make my husband's order.
Credit card machine was broke and was written down manually.
People behind the counter were eating and talking... my husband had to interrupt them to get his order done.
All the employees looked and acted like inexperienced teenagers.
Stop trying to be "hipster" and work on efficiently.
We won't be going back.

I wanted to get my hands on some fresh roasted coffee beans as I am a budding coffee nerd. This is about the closest place to me so I decided to give them a shot. The location seems odd but I suppose they do good business during the work week.

I hadn't eaten lunch so I ordered a blt and a regular cup of coffee. Sandwich was good and the coffee was really only average but I decided to buy brands anyhow. Staff was really friendly and helpful. They seemed to know their coffee. I'm not up on all the terminology but they helped me find some beans. I picked up a half pound bag of the Papua New Guinea. Once I got home I made a pour over and was impressed. Pretty good stuff though perhaps lighter than I like normally.

I find myself pondering if I should go back for my next purchase or try another new spot. I'll definitely go back. Just a matter of when. Thanks.
