Koffee Sutra

I have come here a few times before and the drinks are always good. However, today’s barista on 6/7 at 11AM was incredibly rude and unfriendly. Instead of coming up to the window to take my order, she texted on her phone. I asked her how she was doing, and she was extremely slow to respond to me as she was distracted by her phone. She eventually tossed her phone on the counter after she finished up her text. I asked for an iced coffee that wasn’t cold brew, and she rudely responded, “so you want an americano? I’d be confused if you asked for anything else.” I even asked her to repeat what she said because I was so surprised with how she spoke to me. I told her I would take another look at the menu just so I could end our interaction, and I immediately walked away. My response to this situation may seem juvenile and overly sensitive, but a quick smile, eye contact, a “good morning” or kinder word choice could’ve significantly altered my experience at this coffee shop. Seattle is notorious for poor customer service so I’m not shocked that this happened. I’m just sad that I’m seeing unfriendly customer service more and more on the east side.

Great coffee stand with drive up and walk up windows. Food is yummy and staff is super friendly. The location is great to grab a drink while wandering down Front street.

I work very close to this stand in Olde Town. I am a regular customer and pretty much exclusively buy my coffee here.

-Pros:
Coffee is very good, better than chain-store coffee for sure
-Experienced, personable, and friendly baristas, I always enjoy talking with them!
- Wide assortment of drinks, iced and hot, including smoothies and Italian sodas. Breakfast sandwiches, oatmeal, cookies as well.
-Stamp cards! Get a free drink after a certain amount of orders.

Cons:
- Occasional long wait times, this is a highly trafficked area, and they serve walk up in addition to drive through, and usually only one person is working, this isn't really a con for me as I don't mind the wait but it may bother some in a hurry. (I mean it's not like you're getting anywhere fast on Front Street anyway!)

Pro/Con: More breakfast burritos! They are fantastic but they go quickly and the stock takes a while to renew.

Whenever I go get I always get a quad shot Americano. It's my favorite drink, plus then I can use as a standard for judging coffee shops. The quad shot Americano here is perfect. It has a rich espresso flavor, but then is really smoothly balanced by the cream. I'm impressed!

The morning barista is also very sweet and friendly.

Nice gal who helped us. Their credit card machine was down which seemed strange, I don't usually carry cash but happened to have some when I was there. Good coffee, fast service.

I stop here often! My favorite mini coffee shop! Great breakfast choices and every flavor of Italian soda you can think of!

Love the coffee, easy to get in and out of, and the baristas are all very friendly. It's my go-to coffee stop in Issaquah!

Nice Employees- Good coffee Talisa is a good
Employee she knows how to make good

They make a mean cup of Seattles Best coffee. They make bomb fraps and there sandwiches are solid. Well worth the stop even when theres a wait.

Great coffee and friendly service
