Sugar Shack Espresso

Today as I was driving to my mom's like I do several days out of the week, I decided to stop and try Sugar Shack Espresso's americano. This little coffee stand has been here for a very long time, so they must be doing something right!
First, I asked about the nonfat green tea frappuccino. To my dismay, that is something Sugar Shack doesn't offer.
Incoming americano! Lately, I have had some pretty pleasant americanos, including the amazing one from Energy Island Smoothies. So how does Sugar Shack americano stand up to the only one I swear by so far?
Price-wise, East Side Java won out with an 8oz at $1.50, compared to Sugar Shacks 8oz at $2.00; what about taste-wise??
I enjoyed my americano from Sugar Shack; it had some taste similarities to Energy Island Smoothie and All-Star Espresso. There was a slight hint of creamy background taste to the coffee (no actual cream), not super strong, and no burnt taste, no acidic taste, which is a bonus. However, it wasn't relatively as smooth or creamy tasting as Energy Island Smoothie; it didn't have the background or hint of caramel.
Although the barista was friendly enough and warned me of the coffee's temperature, I was a little disappointed that she didn't offer me a coffee sleeve. Still, it wasn't enough to deter me away from stopping again if the situation is right.
The location of Sugar Shack Espresso is 3588 Chico Way NW, Bremerton, WA.
Sugar Shack shares the same parking lot with Shell Gas Station, within walking distances to the 19th hole Bar and Grill and Hanks Grocery Store.
I'm sure Sugar Shack is probably a little out of the way for many people wanting a coffee, but if you're ever in that neighborhood, you should stop by, the americano is well worth it!

I treat my daughter to sugar shack sometimes and the lady is nice and patient with my daughter when she orders. Just great people fast and don't cost a lot.

I love this coffee stand, been going to it recently. Their coffee is very good and for the most part, haven't had many issues. Now i do go there everyday (a way to get myself to go on more walks) but an issue has seemed to arise. I only have an issue with one of the baristas. It seems every single time i come by during her shift, she is very unpleasant and always seems very upset. For this reason i've tried limiting when i come by during her shifts.

Update:

After my review I was contacted personally by said employee. They apologized and were in fact having a bad day. Everyone has a bad day every now and then and I understand that.

I have it 3 stars bc their drinks are good but there is one girl that works there that is always in a bad mood. It seems like you are always bothering her. I asked her today if she was having a bad day and she snapped at me. So I suggest she get some retraining. People expect to come up to the window and see a smiling face and not some girl who's bothered by your presence. Not sure if I'll go back unless I can figure out when she doe

The barista we see the most always seems so irritated. It seems like she is less often with me, but if my husband is driving and she can't see me (short car problems) she is more likely to be short. It's not like we need to be best friends but it always feels like she's annoyed that we're there. He said today he only got 3 of the 4 drinks he wanted to order because the barista cut him off at 3 and walked away. (I wasn't there so I don't know which barista it was.) I understand that it can be overwhelming when it's busy, but that's the business, isn't it? The coffee isn't bad at all, but it's not my favorite either. This is probably our 3rd choice in the area that we now only go to if the others have long lines.

Rick is a great guy. He is very funny and makes great conversations while making drinks very quickly. My husband and I walked down to the stand for a couple drinks and he perfectly remembered our drinks from the day before and carried on our conversation from the before as well right where we left off. Will be going back repeatedly.

Best coffee I've had since my last trip to Paris. Im waiting on their keriug pods so I can enjoy their special roast any day or night. Love Amanda, she is such a doll.

Some of the best americano i have ever had. I cant speak about everything else but im sure its amazing too!!

I work near here and prefer this place over Starbucks anyday! The new food items they added are good as well! The girl there is awesome and already knows what I want. I feel horrible I don't know her name!

I love Sugar shack! All the women there are all super sweet and very helpful. They all work quickly without leaving you with a little chatter. LOVE LOVE LOVE!
