$6.73 for a Americana is way too high even for Marin. At this rate, I would expect them to be $10 by December.

Always nice people, great coffee, and quick service. Our family has patronized this business for 10 years now, since it was a simple trailer unit, and we will always choose them as our preferred coffee and drive-thru breakfast spot in Fairfax.

It’s a drive thru coffee stop. They have pre packaged light food, tea, specialty coffee and tea drinks. If there’s a line of cars the wait isn’t bad when enough staff are on, if not it can take a few minutes-so if you’re in a rush-check out if there’s more than one person working. Otherwise-great location, two windows for orders, good selection. Prices are typical of coffee shops in the area.

I had their bacon, egg and cheese breakfast sandwich as well as their large hot cappuccino. The coffee was so burnt. It was essentially undrinkable. The sandwich was fine. Overall very expensive for the very low quality. I spent approximately $15 in total and it was definitely not worth the money.

I asked for chocolate milk, they gave me hot chocolate. I asked again for chocolate milk, they gave me lukewarm chocolate. I asked again for chocolate milk, they gave me the same cup but with ice in it. It's cold milk with chocolate in it. It's not hard.

I just bought an Arnold palmer and a bottle of water. I paid 9 dollars for both and the Arnold palmer tastes like medicine and spoiled lemon juice. I kept calling to complain and ask for a refund or a different drink, but nobody answered. Please I give myself these type of treats once in a while, and I feel like I threw away my money by getting such a bad drink.

Just a little drive up coffee Kiosk, but I needed an early breakfast for some workers. The Chile verde wraps were delicious!
