Dawson Taylor Coffee Roasters, located on 8th Street in Boise, is a popular spot for both locals and visitors. The cafe offers a variety of food options, all of which are tasty and plentiful. The staff is friendly and attentive, contributing to the bustling and lively atmosphere. The ambiance is cozy and welcoming, with friendly dogs and uplifting Christian music playing in the background. Customers appreciate the calm vibe and the option to find art projects with free burlap sacks.
The coffee at Dawson Taylor is a highlight, with a knowledgeable barista and a wide range of options. The espresso beans, specifically the Espresso Primo, are highly recommended for their bold and smooth flavor. The cappuccino is a standout, with one customer raving that it is the best they've had since Europe. The shop also offers a free cup of drip coffee with bean purchases, making for an even more enjoyable experience. Many customers believe that Dawson Taylor does the best roasting in the valley, possibly in the inland NW. The well-sourced whole beans are sold at a reasonable price, and the environment is easy and not pretentious, making it a great place to relax and read.
The shop has a pour-over menu, which many consider a sign of a good coffee shop. However, some recent visitors experienced issues with curbside pickup, noting that the online order process was not well-managed. Overall, Dawson Taylor Coffee Roasters is a must-visit for anyone looking for great food, exceptional coffee, and warm hospitality.
