Bowler Coffee Company

Bowler is hands down one of my favorite spots in the area, Taylor is so sweet and always makes super great drinks, I hope everyone tries bowler at least once :)

Have never had a problem with this place before, generally they have ok coffee and ok service. Today I went to pick up coffe and a sandwich before work and was the only customer there. the barista forgot to return my card, and I had to skip my lunch at work to retrieve it. whether she felt like it was her fault is irrelevant. I was less than impressed as the same barista did not have the professional courtesy to apologize for the colossal inconvenience that our shared interaction caused me. I will be taking all of my business to Q’s from now on and if they are closed for whatever reason, I will reluctantly take my business to Starbucks before ever returning to a cafe elite.

So, as I sit in a parking lot sipping my very creamy, brewed to perfection breve latte, (expertly produced by Allie), I am compelled to review this coffee shop. I couldn't wait for this location to open up a few weeks ago because it's closer to my house than the other Elites. Once I tried it, I couldn't believe I found my new coffee stand!! Now, the coffee may be the same as the other stands but not all shots are created equal and only this one has Allie, the blonde morning girl!! And, all her staff, who are being trained by her. Here's my list of the reasons I am calling this my home coffee shop: 1) My lattes are perfectly consistent EVERY time, deliciously creamy. 2) Staff is courteous and friendly. 3) I like to gab with my baristas and, knowing from experience, it can be annoying when you are trying to make someone's drink correctly, I never once felt that from this staff, and Allie in particular, has never missed a beat with my drinks, even while engaging with me in convo. 4) Coffee is life!! That's all. If they didn't "have it" here, I wouldn't return, every day! I believe in giving people a chance to get it right. If they don't make your drink EXACTLY how you like it the first time, they're not mind readers and magicians, they need a chance to prove that they can and will. This stand has the expertise and commitment to make that happen. I get it, us customers can be finicky and temperamental, especially where our coffee is at stake!!
So it's clear, my experience comes from owning coffee shops on the east coast. I just moved to WA last year. I never knew anyone at this stand before I started coming, still don't really, just that I believe in giving credit to hard working people who go above and beyond to give good customer service. Remembering a customer's name, what they like before they ask, because you made it your business to make a mental note on purpose, says everything to a customer. That's what I get here, at cafe elite plu!! Thank you, Allie and all your staff!!

I always have a great experience at Bowler. The baristas are my coffee family. If you want great coffee, Bowler is the place to go.

The girls were great. The drinks are awesome so glad we found a shop that has lotus drinks. My starry night with pink lotus is so good. Thank you so much.

The owner was rude to us for no reason on our recent visit. She didn't listen to my order and interupted me when I was talking. Charged me more than I asked for. Wrong size drink and wrong flavors. Threatened us to not come back to that location even though we gave them no trouble

Excellent coffee and extremely friendly service. It’s a little out of the way for me but I’m already making up excuses to be in the are so I can get more coffee from this shop.

This is a great place to get a cup of coffee. The staff are friendly and professional. I also appreciate the cleanliness of the stand.

Very friendly people. I love this place. The lattes I get r sooo good. Been a customer for over a year. I would give more than 5 stars if I could

The employees are what make this place a good experience.
