great coffee and sweet employees who brought our order out to us in the cold and gave my pup a little treat

I had a latte which was a nice change from the chain coffee shops. Went back the next day too. Friendly service. Nice mellow atmosphere.

Not much to say, bussiness folk and upper middle class college students might like it. Their coffe is okay. Staff are generally nice... Seems handicap accessible. Very clean and their outdoor area is actually very pleasent.

This is a cute modern coffee shop. I love getting coffee from their pour over bar. Their coffee is always freshly ground and flavorful. They always change their pour over menu with unique exotic coffees.

Attention Star Wars fans, this IS the coffee shop you have been looking for! The attention-to-detail the owners have put-in is unlike any-other themed establishment. So set your coordinates for planet Alderaan and jump to hyperspace - Chewie "HIT IT!"

From first glance, the only detail that screams Star Wars is the name; Alderaan. Known to fans as Princess Leia's home planet that was famously destroyed by the Death Star in Episode 4: A New Hope. When you walk-in and see the interior, you might be scratching your head and thinking, "why is this place called Alderaan?" While the layout of the shop is very clean, slick and modern, there are no other indications that this place has anything to do with Star Wars. But as a long-time customer, I am going to reveal all the secrets that make this place the number 1 destination in the galaxy for Star Wars fans.

The very first clue that secrets are-to-be-found is in the WiFi password. I won't explicitly list-it here, but it's the last name of the most famous Jedi family in the storyline. Once I learned this, I made it my prime-directive to uncover all the other Star Wars secrets hiding in Coffee Shop Alderaan. Here's what I have found so far:

- If you visit in full-costume, your first cup-of-coffee is on the house. I learned this after stopping-in before Comic Con with a full-cosplay group. The barista took our photo (we were dressed up as rastafarian Storm Troopers) and put the polaroid in their huge costume photo-book behind the counter (you can ask to see it anytime - I'm in there like 30 times!).

- If you can stump the barista with Star Wars trivia - you get a free refill on literally any drink they serve. Now, this is easier said than done, and some barista's are more knowledgeable than others. They might hate-it when I come-in because I bring the hard questions - but the short, fair-skinned barista-girl with dark hair is literally unstumpable. It might have something to do with all the Star Wars tattoos she has, her legs are covered with them! She even knows trivia from the Clone Wars cartoon and Dark Horse comic books.

- All of the light switches make a lightsaber noise when you turn them off and then back-on again. I found this-out during a power-outage, so cool!

- They have BLUE MILK! But you have to ask for it. It's actually called "Bantha Milk" and makes for the best, most interesting looking lattes. I even ask for-it on my cereal.

- Every table and chair has a different planet name and it's printed in Star Wars font on the underside. The Dagobah chair, at the Dagobah System table is my spot!

- Every-hour, on-the-hour, their sound-system plays a random Star Wars sound-effect, it's so quiet that you might even miss-it, but it's such a neat detail. I've heard Vader's breathing, Chewie talking and even a Wilhelm Scream.

- If you flush their bathroom toilet 5-times in a row, really fast - all the lights turn-red in the bathroom and the Imperial March plays. NO JOKE, I was so surprised when this happened.

Help me out and let's look for more secrets at this place. I am there with my D&D crew almost every Saturday, they let us take-over two full tables for gaming and there is room for lots more. They encourage so-much gaming that the owner even keeps a stash of dice and D20s behind the counter. The whole left-hand side of the shop is just workstations with a big power outlet at every seat - perfect for LAN parties.

Be sure to make Alderaan coffee shop your final destination for your next cosplay/LARP meetup - gaming session - or whatever your geek heart desires. May the Force be with you!

Great service. Love the environment! My husband said it's one of the best cups of coffee hes had in a while. Keep being great!

John Mesch

Excellent coffee. They are hard-core on the covid procedures too so if you like to play it safe (or just hate being around other people) then you're gonna love it

Katie Landry

Star wars themed, homemade almond milk and homemade syrups. Say no more. Pumpkin spice syrup for the fall was perfect, not overly sweet.

Lance Jones

Great coffee drinks: try the lavender latte and Rocket Fuel. Alderaan is a great place for meeting (try the outdoor seating) or to put your headphones on and get stuff done. Smart baristas, too.

Jordan Boyea

Delicious coffee! Fast friendly service and staff. Real coffee is becoming more and more difficult to come by. Well done!! Highly recommend!
