Had a bad experience here with their service. Very understaffed on a Saturday morning (one barista is not enough), and I waited 35 minutes for a simple latte. I asked about my order and was told “just a few minutes”, then 10 minutes later I asked again and STILL had to wait another 10 minutes. I saw many people order after me and get the same drinks first so either they lost my order and lied to me, or they seriously need to work on their ordering system.

Solid place, layout a little strange (gets cramped).

Be kind to yourself and avoid this establishment

The store has coffee here, unlike any other I've tasted. Smooth and bursting with flavor, I had black coffee, and my girlfriend had a caramel macchiato—what a taste! It's worth coming back for more.

This is one of my favorite Peet's. I like the energy of Piedmont avenue.

Best thing about this Peet’s is that you can look forward to being passively aggressively insulted by a young 20-something as you wait an absurd amount of time for your order to be ready. Coffee is what you expect.

I went to the store on August 14, 2024, in the morning before taking my daughter to school. Upon arriving, there were only two people in line in front of me. The first customer was placing his order at the register and the second was waiting to do the same. The first customer took a while to order, then moved aside to wait for his coffee. The second customer then ordered and also waited for his drink. However, the employee didn't acknowledge me or say they'll be with me shortly, so after waiting for almost five minutes with my daughter, we left as I had to get her to school.

I returned after dropping off my daughter and found a bit more of a line, with only one cashier and some employees seemingly idle. I waited for about 10 minutes to place my order. The employee at the register was chatting with another worker, while the person making drinks was washing things and someone else appeared to be aimlessly wandering. People who had ordered before me were still waiting for their drinks, and it took nearly 7 minutes for me to receive my drink. The employees were once again talking and not focused on working efficiently despite the busy store.

The previous day, there was a homeless individual outside the store who urinated in public, but the staff didn't make an effort to clean it up near the entrance.

Walked in was not greeted lady with her back to me. Walked over to two baristas making drinks backs to me no greeting or telling me I was in the wrong line. I was the only one in the store. Others came in and got in line and I followed last. Finally got my coffee it leaked all over my white shirt about a block away! ?
