Coffee is good but not a lot of seating and the sun glare is a problem up front. Maybe invest in blinds?? Met for a business discussion, would probably find a better spot next time.

I've had two out of two disappointing experiences at the Coffeesmith. The first time, I wanted a decaf coffee and was asked if decaf Americano would be okay. That was fine with me, but once I started drinking it, I really questioned that it was decaf. I can't be sure, but I'd been having bad reactions to caffeine at the time, and I had a bad reaction to that drink. For the second experience, I ordered a medium mocha. The cup was only half full. At first, with the whipped cream it looked about 2/3 full, but after a minute of cooling down, the cup was literally half empty. And probably relatedly, it tasted like I was drinking pure chocolate syrup, no hint of espresso flavor, way too sweet.

Oak barrel latte my dudes! Great coffee, great people, great vibes.

Uses cheap light cups and lids that are not secure while also overfilling the cups for the requested size so you end up either burning your hands or having a cup explode, that on top of having to dance around the counter waiting for your coffee order since the seating is filled by people working out of office in the establishment.

Delicious coffee, unique wood tables. I love the ambiance here!
This is such a fun, unique coffee shop! A good amount of seating to have a conversation, do some work or just sip some espresso!
I can’t wait to come back and try some other drinks and goodies!

I have done one-on-one meetings here, I have gone in and simply worked on my computer, and have gone in and sat down with friends. It is a great place for any of these. The coffee and food are excellent. A little on the expensive side but the quality is worth it and the atmosphere is very cozy.

I'm disappointed to be writing a review like this on such a great place. I have been going to the coffee smith for the past couple of years and today was a different experience. I ordered three croissant sandwich's and waited for 25 minutes and they were never brought out. At this time the place wasn't as busy either. i went up at the 25 mark and said something to this kind worker, and unfortunately one of the other workers made a comment "it wasn't that long ago." It was exactly 25 minutes because it said on my phone when i made the payment. It felt rude and unnecessary. I waited in total 35 minutes to get my order fulfilled. I am a patient person and understand circumstances since i used to work at a high paced food oriented company. I even tipped knowing the service is wonderful, but today changed my perspective a bit. It was one disappointing experience and i understand off days, but understand that one day doesn't necessarily change how amazing the food is and cozy they make it feel.

Coffee was good. I'm not in this area much so I've only been here twice but I've never been disappointed. I got a seasonal Elderberry Latté today and it was just as the barista described--not too sweet, but sweet enough. It's Labor Day and one of the few coffee shops that are open so they were pretty packed with caffeine enthusiasts. I love the products that they offer and I think it's nice that they have caffeine-free drinks (babyccino) for kids, etc...
Got a decaf iced latte which was above average, and a Ron Swanson breakfast sandwich that was very good. Went Saturday morning, it was busy but the staff was quick and the wait was not long.

We drive from Johnston to grab the Pablo Honey. I’ve tried to get other shops to make it but no one compares to the Coffeesmith!

I have been spending some time at The Coffee Smith and I wanted to share my observations about how the staff works. Even while having a line of customers, all of them have been saying “Thank you” as people pick up their orders. I am amazed because this is not common place any more. I train customer service for my job and I am impressed by this staff. Even when the customer is grabbing and going they are made to feel like their business is important. This makes all the difference in choosing a local business rather than then a chain for coffee. Thank you Coffee Smith for making this Important.
