Generations Coffee (formerly Butler's Coffee)

I told them to toast my bagel and they did not. Simple instructions and they failed.

Don't come here unless you have time to kill! I visited on a weekday with 2 coworkers on our way into LA. We entered before opening time around 7:55 and didn't get our 3 drinks and two pastries until 8:30, despite 3 people behind the counter. Neither the coffee or the food were particularly good. I wouldn't go back here.

First time visiting and unfortunately will not return. It is extremely warm inside if the air conditioner was on couldn’t feel it. Why was there a painting class going on lol I thought I walked into the wrong place, Nothing against painting just makes you feel like you can’t stay because you have the instructor taking and made you feel like you had to be quiet. Then the two kids working on our drinks were friendly and courteous, but it took 15 minutes to get two drinks and we were the only ones ordering. The coffee at first tasted okay but left a bad after taste, never had that from coffee before. I understand The concept that you’re trying to do there, but I think there should be some adult supervision. Or experience staff member to control quality taste! Some of the one or two stars reviews that I read here coincide with what we experience.

Excellent service

Really liked the cake pops and apple pie. DELICIOUS!

Best coffee shop I've been to in a long time. Their organic coffee and ice blended espresso is AMAZING! Had an ice blended white raspberry mocha and a spinach and egg sandwich warmed. Staff was friendly and helpful! WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!

This place needs a lot of work and when I say a lot. I mean, a lot. I paid 7.50 for a small latte. I had to delete my old review because it's not the same owner from 6 years ago. Most of these reviews are from the old name butlers coffeehouse. Total different coffee house. Beware.

9am on a Saturday morning and no one is in the coffee shop. That alone speaks for itself.

After spending a few minutes looking at the menu on the wall, I ordered two things off of that menu, but then I was informed that they no longer sell those items. I wasted my time looking at the menu just to find out it’s not even accurate. After they told me they didn’t have vanilla flavoring I saw it sitting on the counter and asked about It and was blown off by the worker. The latte was below mid. Barely tasted the coffee, 95% of it was milk, and our “warmed sandwich” wasn't even warm.

The staff is very unprofessional. They have 7 workers and they are too busy making their own drinks and talking to give proper customer service. Me and my husband waited 15 minutes for our order. In that time the workers were making their own drinks instead of ours.

Will not be going back

This is my fav coffee spot! Great selection of drinks and snacks. Love the atmosphere too. I always find jewelry or something extra that I want to buy.

So I’m in here looking to see where I can have coffee just looks like a great place. I always read the good comments, but I also read the negative comment. The negative comments is enough to not go to this place. Wow didn’t even have to be alive because the few that were is enough to discourage.

The drinks were great. The atmosphere was magnificent. My son and I enjoyed a conversation over games.

This has always been a great cozy spot, and while it is commendable that they help so many kids find employment, there really needs to be a “grown up” grown up at the location at all times. Today we went in and it was full, so we took the only free table that was near the door. There was a lot of foot traffic near us so after 10 minutes we noticed a table in the back by the sound booth had opened up. It looked much more cozier so we moved our laptops and all of our books and belongings to that other table.

10 minutes later a young employee comes in and rudely asks us to leave. I thought it was a joke but then he said the table was reserved for employees (I’m sorry, what?) because it was blocking the path of the booth. So we asked if we can just move our chairs so he could have a clear path and he relented saying that we needed to move. Why didn’t he ask the previous customers to move? Why didn’t he place the sign as soon as it got free? Why couldn’t he wait 20 more minutes? And why wait till we were settled in and in a deep work discussion to kick us out of the table?

I’ve never experienced anything like it. But I also realized that the kid doesn’t seem too socially savvy and he was just trying to do his job so we complied.

That said, i will continue supporting and will not leave a low rating, I just hope that the owners can train the customer facing employees to be slightly more tactful in the future.

My gosh! This is now my favorite for coffee. The other day I had an ice vanilla latte with cold foam. So darn good! The cold foam was the best I've ever had and the coffee is really smooth. The staff are really nice and patient if you don't know what you want and need to ask questions. They have plenty of seating and the atmosphere is really relaxing. Faith base business as well which seems hard to find. So glad we came upon Generations Coffee!

Best coffee shop in Palmdale by far. Ambiance is great, can get some good studying done here
