Drowsy Poet @The Foley Station

Ugh. I hate leaving reviews but I am still bothered by my experience there. I went in last month for breakfast and coffee with my mother. I lived in foley for YEARS, and decided to move away for my husband. Every time I come down I made sure to get coffee here almost everyday until I left. This last time is going to be my last time unfortunately. They were training a new girl at the register, and she wasn’t writing the names on the coffee as she went. So, 10 minutes go by and finally I asked about our coffee since others that came in after us got theirs. The barista (dark curly hair) got aggravated because the girl in training has apparently been doing that all morning. I’m like it’s fine. Smile on my face trying to be as easy as possible. They made mine. As soon as my moms came up, someone else immediately ran up there and grabbed it. She was the lady that ordered right after us, so she was having the same issue. I go back up to speak with the barista. She rolls her eyes, huffs and gives the worst attitude as I told her the lady took my mom’s. So they made my moms. Well, my mom wanted honey so I walk up to the register and the barista is talking with the cashier. She sees me and instantly gives me a dirty look. But. She is all smiles with the cashier. Look. I was as nice as possible because I lived here for years and worked in all aspects of the tourist industry. Her attitude was EXTREMELY unnecessary. I would understand if I was rude, but I wasn’t. So. Honest review. I won’t be back.

amazing coffee! most friendly staff and welcoming environment!!! 10/10 recommend🤍

Love this little coffee shop! The food was prepped and in a fridge next to the line grab what you want and they heat it up fresh for ya. Coffee was nice, typical barista style but service was better than most coffee shops. Cool little lounge for enjoying your brew and vibing with others! I feel they could have more items for food on the menu but what they do offer seems to keep them efficient.

Parking: Parking is not usually difficult to find unless it's busy. It's a typical downtown atmosphere so there isn't like a Plaza parking lot.

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly

I absolutely love this little shop! The employees were lovely, a girl with short brown hair and glasses, I think her named started with an F was just wonderful! She drew little pictures on the cups and made sure to recommend a coffee we would be sure to enjoy!

Parking: A few spots out front but very easy to pull into depending on traffic

Yet another place that doesn’t actually know the definition of espresso drinks. A cappuccino and a latte are not the same thing, but like so many other average coffee shops, they will give you the same thing. Espresso is ok, hard to taste it in my cup of hot milk through.

The energy drinks are so good! They have A LOT of caffeine though. Probably fine if you drink a red bull or two a day already. Very affordable! And they have bagels! Will try those next time!
