Every time I've went to Pineapple Espresso, the food was fresh, and the staff was always friendly. Would definitely recommend!

When I think about the experiences I have had at this amazing cafe, I can’t imagine my coffee or meals made any other way. The service you receive is impeccable and of the best around, This is more than just a cafe-it’s truly a second home I have found. Don’t waste another moment-please stop by and check them out, Making you feel at home is what they’re all about. 😉

Food is good. Staff is really pushy about the 15% tip. Was asked if I was tipping 15%, I said no, tip a dollar, wasn't allowed to enter it myself or see the screen. Who knows how much I actually tipped!

I love getting the beet and avocado toast. Soooo delicious. This weekend i took my doggie with me to go pick up some food. The girl at the drive thru was so sweet and asked if she could give Rocco a treat. She gave him some bacon and both his and my day was made! Thank you for showing my baby some love :)

(Adjusted from 5 to 2 stars) .. One of the best egg croissant sandwiches I've had in awhile too. The drive-thru experience is super unique, you have to give this place a try. This place is amazing, don't get me wrong .. however, they once messed up my order and put bacon (on two sandwiches), when I go out of my way to not eat meat. After returning home, I realized and called them .. the manager said they would remake it for me, but not everyoone has the time to stop what they are doing and return.. especially considering the drive-thru express nature of the place. As I travel quite often, I didnt return for a few months and when I did, they acted like I was trying to get free food and asked me to pay for one, and they would provide the other on trust that I wasn't making up some story... which is why I have to lower the review here to two stars. Epic food, but like .. I paid to have two bacon sandwiches that I couldn't eat and the only way I could eat here again was by buying another sandwich!? AND taking the time to return, prove my story on pure trust. I felt awkward and embarrassed to even ask again and return.. but I did, and I owned it.. and now that I consider having to repay for more food.. I have a hard time considering this place again.. Sadly.

The food was good, the coffee was fine. But just leaves a sour taste when $12 sandwich and a $4 coffee turn to $23+ because you don’t realize that they already added 15% and they hand a machine to tip with a minimum set of 20%. So I ended up tipping way more that I would for a drive thru “service experience”… which I would tip this much , but not with a hidden way how they have it setup… please for the love of your business! If you do want people tipping at least 15% then don’t setup your machine to ask for up to another 20 or 30% .. everything is going up , and people like me can’t be going out and be tipping 30 or 40%… pay your employees and don’t pass this cost to your customer thru the form of a hidden fee. Change your toast machine to ask for 5%, 10% or 15% and make it clear you are already charging 15%. I won’t come back.

Had an absolutely delightful Americano. Friendly and efficient service, and a nice patio to relax and enjoy our morning brew on.

This breakfast coffee place is by far the best breakfast coffee place I have ever been to in my entire life. Pineapple espresso has an amazing assortment of coffee and Michelin star quality food. Their poached eggs are perfect. They use locally sourced food, fresh sprouts, exotic ingredients, The toast is perfectly cooked. Everything is done with perfection and I mean perfection in the most literal sense of the term. It's expensive. Yes, $40 for two people plus tip, But you're not going to be able to get a better breakfast than this in the area. I'm so blessed to live near this restaurant and I will continue to go here until the day I die.

the breakfast that i had from pineapple espresso (the med toast special!) was the single most delicious meal i've had in a very long time. it was so incredible that i am making the 45 minute drive again tomorrow for more. i also loved my iced vanilla soy latte, and the blueberry muffin was amazing as well!!! i will absolutely be back here as often as i can 🫶🏻💓🧋✨

The coffee? Bold and flavorful. The service? Quick but personable. The food? Fresh and delicious with restaurant quality presentation. The prices? Affordable and well worth it. The atmosphere? Tropical and calm. I can’t believe I missed this eco-friendly place so many times and I live right down the road! Definitely a spot you have to keep an eye out for. This tiny gem has two drive thru lanes and that’s mainly how they service you. I was craving some good coffee and I wanted to support a local business. Definitely go here if you’re feeling like how I was. Make sure to tip your servers!

These people should not attempt dual drive thrus. They skip people and wonder why the line is backed up forever.

Where do I even start?!? Hands down some of the best coffee in the burg. Most importantly; it’s CONSISTENT! Service is always on point. Staff looks genuinely happy to be there. Offers walk up AND Drive thru if you’re like me who just rolls out of bed looking for caffeine. Love this place.

Pineapple Espresso is the most adorable and amazing coffee shop! They are so quick and efficient. I like to walk there with my dog and they always give him a little piece of bacon. Food, coffee, and tea are all delicious!
