Where's the flavor??? My partner and I ordered two different flavors lattes, one hot one iced, and neither of which could we taste anything but cheap beans, no flavoring. The service was great and staff friendly, but very disappointing drinks.
Literally the worst!
The lady was rude and dry. If you don't like greeting or talking to people, don't work in a customer service field. Sandwich was super greasy And coffee wasn't even good. It's not worth it. Drive up the corner to a different coffee shop.
Hot shots
I visited the area for only a couple days but stopped here each morning!! The coffee combinations are many, and the kind worker suggested something to me each time and they were INCREDIBLE! Love this little shop and I still think about it to this day! Food was delicious, hot, and affordable as well.
The coffee is so yummy and the service is so friendly!
I love this coffee place! Very consistent, the ladies that work here are genuinely kind and personable. Which is not always the case you usually have a favorite batista (or least favorite)but they are all great here. I love the location being close to the high school, which my kids always seem to have activities at and on my into town from my house. I don't love the drive thru/parking lot because it can get pretty cramped but they offer a mobile order system to expedite things. There is a sign with a phone number to text your order to and it is always ready by the time I pull up.
Me and my friends go here multiple times a week as we work right near here and all the girls who work here are awesome! I do have to say, might not be the best idea to leave a brand new barista alone to work especially when it’s before noon during the week. She handled it very well, however, anyone would be stressed & overwhelmed even if they don’t really show it. Let’s all take care of one another 💜
Been coming here for several years. Great coffee selections and good service. Several of these ladies have been there for many years. Difficult if there’s more than 3 cars in the line which then I avoid going. I’ve had multiple times someone cut me off while I was waiting in line and that person continues getting served. I understand that’s difficult to control, but I can also see why many would be frustrated with this.
Hot Shotz is the best drive thru coffee stand I’ve been to! This stand in Tumwater is a go to in the mornings right after dropping our son off at school. EVERY interaction is kind and friendly, my orders are never incorrectly made, and the service is fast. The baristas are quick and efficient and happy to be there! Some other places drinks taste basically the same with slight variations, but every intended flavor difference of drink is actually done well and tastes like it’s supposed to! Yay! (White mocha and caramel are different flavors .. hint hint to some larger chain coffee brands.. Hot Shotz does it right!) Also, it’s a plus that the cups, sleeves and packaging is also very esthetically pleasing!
This was originally my go to for caffeine. Some of the iced lattes I got tasted stale but sometimes they were great. This last time I went and got an iced energy drink. I drank some and then poured the remainder energy drink from a can I had in it and noticed something floating up when I did. I don’t know what it was but it was squishy and gooey and disgusting. I don’t know if it was mold from where they get ice from but I feel sick. I will never go back again. 0/10
This is one of the better places to get coffee in Tumwater for a couple reasons. First, they are incredibly quick at making drinks, reducing your wait time once you've paid. Secondly, each and every barista is happy to be there, engaging and friendly. They even have different drink specials almost every day. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because of their prices, specifically the amount of shots offered. While it is not unreasonable, I get a 20oz mocha and receive 2 shots, there are many other stands that you can get 3 shots at for the same price range. Some days I definitely need that third shot! Overall, amazing stand and employees.
Love the table outside in the old highpoint tavern spot from like nineteen years ago.
Fast friendly service! Even when there is a line it moves quickly.
I normally don’t do reviews on businesses but this one deserves one!! She is such a wonderful lady and the sweetest. Had a wonderful short conversation with her and was first time trying their coffee/ drinks. It was amazing! I can’t thank her enough for them and I highly recommend this place. She’s so sweet.
Favorite coffee stand in town. Great coffee and the batistas are all so friendly.
My husband waited in line for 20 min. A lady cut in front of them, got out her car and went to the window. I use to be a barista, shouldn't take you 20 minutes to make 3 people coffee. Are you kidding? Be fast, be polite.
I order coffee that is a bit complicated and the barista was so kind to patiently make sure she had my order right. The price was cheaper than most places and the coffee was good.
I don't know I didn't go to Hot shots
Best coffee in town , very friendly baristas who treat me like family every time and love to see our pup as well, who loves going there too because he always gets a dog treat
