D & M Coffee Downtown

An open airy location right in the center of town, it’s the place you know you can always go to run into people you know. It’s a great spot for meeting with people or people watching. Their food and beverage however is neither quality or consistent. Things I have experienced: coffee grounds in the bottom of my coffee, Flat beer from their tap, Wine poured from a bottle that had been open for an unknown number of days, stale cookies, chewy croissants. Why do I keep on going back? 1) location 2) that’s where you go in Ellensburg.

The dark coffee was very watery so you couldn't tell it was dark. My wife and I rarely don't finish our coffee. We both drank 1/2. Places like this shouldn't have coffee in their name

Chill atmosphere. Excellent for work/study ambiance. Good for meeting up with people. You can stay a while. Food and drinks are mediocre (e.g. sugary yogurt, store-bought teabags instead of loose leaf, not a large selection of food).

Love the atmosphere and the overall vibe. The cashiers are extra nice and accommodating. Overall very welcome for locals, students, and all others.

The food is subpar. You can get a better quesadilla and burrito at the Surc on campus. The Taco rice is disappointing, not sure why everything is loaded with jalapeños. The paninis are alright but the don't stand a chance against Monster Melts.

The coffee is pretty good. Good place for studying and coffee, food leaves more to be wanted.

The staff is great, the coffee is really good and the owners are awesome!! When I'm passing through Ellensburg during a road trip, D & M is my number one choice for my coffee fix! AND... The hay straws... GENIUS!!

Even though it was busy inside the cashier worked fast and efficiently which I liked. Was able to get in and out quickly. Nice seating areas inside. Not a fan of coffee but the food was great.

Best coffe I have ever tasted!! I live in Yakima but drive to Ellensburg to buy a bag of hi-octane coffee to make espresso at home once a month or so. I can't believe anyone would go to Starbucks if they had a D&M in their town. Love D&M coffee!!!!!!!!!!!!😍💜❤💗💖☕

Great coffee, marvelous scones, friendly staff. They have made unfortunate changes to their panini, however. The rather sweet tomato sauce added to the veggie panini does not go well with the Greek olives, feta cheese, and artichoke hearts. They had a good combo, and I was deeply disappointed that they felt they had to ruin it. I haven't tried the other sandwiches, so I don't know if other terrible changes have been made to them by someone with more creativity than taste.

In response to the owner's response: Yes, the recipe did change, although I assume it happened some years ago. Tomatoes were added to the veggie panini, which in the past did not have them in any form. When I made a special stop in Ellensburg just to get a veggie panini, I was shocked by the new taste. A formerly wonderful blending of flavors is now completely masked by tomato sauce with Italian seasonings. The spinach and Greek olives do look pretty, though. Take them out and admire them while you eat the spaghetti sauce.

Love, Love, Love! Everything is amazing! Love their baked goods and hot drinks, and oh wait the cold drinks are the best! Definitely go here for a morning coffee run. Friendly staff and Yummy Drinks and food!!

Comfortable cafe atmosphere, exposed wood and chairs that look like the older ones from my elementary school make this place cozy under the warm glow of bare bulbs. The food isn't to die for but quite scrumptious all the same.
