The Front Room Coffeehouse

I ordered a drink with light ice and they filled it up half way and said “the rest is ice” I know I did not just pay 5.45 for a grande when I ordered a venti. So very disappointed.

Great coffee and great location. So many places to eat and drink in Athens but this one is a must. The staff is friendly and the service is fast. Convenient location right on court street. I always stop there for a visit when I see my daughter at school. I would reccomend this place.

Slow service even when not busy, & the baristas just act weird towards customers. It’d be like 4 stars if the drinks didn’t always taste off. Non-licensed Starbucks are always a miss.

Place is pretty good considering the staff is 100% student workforce, which leaves some room for improvement at times. Avoid the place 5" before OU classes change until about 10" after the next classes start, cause the wait can be long. Counter help if always friendly if not overly adept at handling real money (i.e., cash). I go there frequently and it is not rare that they'll have run out of cream or Splenda, and sometimes don't have brewed coffee ready. On some instances the staff has just substituted a different roast without checking, or worse yet, taken a tap from a still-brewing carafe (can you say "strong coffee"?). All in all not a bad place but be sure you get what you want, and what you expect.

The Front Room is the coffeehouse found on the 4th floor of Baker Center at OU. It was recently revamped so it looks very modern and nice inside. It is usually clean and the staff are friendly. They walls are covered with photography and artwork done by the students and the community. It is a nice place to have a coffee or other beverage of your choice and to do some work or to attend an event.

Coffee drinks are consistently well-made. I don't think I've ever gotten a bad/bland flavored latte from here, which seems to be an issue with a lot of coffee shops for some reason.

I go here every single day and will not change my routine. They're super speedy and the sugar cookies are incredible.

Nice atmosphere, plenty of seating, good customer service, but they serve Starbucks coffee (minus 1 ⭐).

Drinks are never made right. Avoid the headache, and go to one of the numerous local coffee places in Athens.
