Sena is an incredible employee! Amazing customer service and makes the best drinks!!
Swift, friendly service. Coffee itself was quite “meh.”
The good news is the energy drinks and food they offer are consistently great, and the whole bean coffee and tea they sell is really nice. However, this place is really hard to rate higher as they can be very inconsistent with how their espresso turns out. One day it could be really nice and have all the hallmarks of a really good darker roasted espresso. Other days it tastes really bitter and burnt.
BEST chai latte I’ve ever had.
Casual coffee shop near campus. Decor could maybe use a little upgrade as it does feel a little dark and cold inside. The drinks are always well made and enjoyable, though maybe a little on the sweet side. Overall a nice place to come and get some work done.
Nice coffee, nice service, nice environment! Would love to come again.
The coffee is not as expected. The place is near to student looking for some caffeine between lectures
Really Kool and kind staff can't recommend enough.
Eesh, the person that made my fog today was so kind, but it was terrible. The water tasted very chlorinated or metallic or something. Like nasty tap water?
Very convenient right on the corner here.
Great coffee & space to meet friends
The espresso is awful. Get a cappuccino or latte and don't add any sugar to it and you'll see. It's burnt, bitter and acrid. If you're a coffee shop and you don't have decent espresso then it's a no for me dawg. I can think of at least two other places in town that pull awesome espressos that don't need to be drowned in sugar to be drinkable.
Great place to stop and get pastries and coffee and do homework.
Local campus people gather and connect. Low key, relaxed. Lots of professors and students. This is classic campus coffeeshop experience. Known as the "Brain" Beanery for the smart people that come by
Best chai lattes in Corvallis! My boyfriend got a mocha and he said it’s the best mocha he’s had in Corvallis. I’ve lived here for 5 years and I haven’t been been in here too frequently. The breakfast sandwich and breakfast burrito are really good as well. They recently reopened after covid and its my new favorite coffee shop!
I love coming here! They have amazing service and great seasonal and regular drinks.
Tasty coffee and a lovely cozy feel in the shop!
Easily the best cafe on Monroe. For the record, it looks like most of the negative reviews about this place are from during quarentine when they got some publicity around a group of cops coming in and refusing to wear a mask - after the governor put the mask mandate into effect. It's too bad a few cops expecting to be above the law and policies of the state caused so many people from out of the area to pretend to have had a bad experience here. At least Corvallis is small, so everyone that actually lives here knows this place is great.
I like their coffee and breakfast sandwiches. Their specialty lattes are on the sweeter side, and I didn’t happen to like the horchata one as much as other coffee shops. Still like this cafe though!
Very nice, relaxed, informal, coffee shop. Great coffee. Have been visiting since 2011. Love the ambiance.
