The music volume is way too loud. People have to raise their voices just to talk. While I’ve noticed improvements recently, this feels like another step backward. It’s a coffee shop, not a club or social shack down.
I’ve been to many great cafés that play soft, instrumental music at a low volume, creating a relaxing atmosphere. Here, even with my headphones on high volume, I can still hear the loud, unpleasant music.
I actually left much sooner than usual today, even though I typically stay longer. I’m still giving 5 stars because the staff is always friendly and welcoming, but the atmosphere is being ruined by the music choices and volume level.

I attend the Algiers Pjs location on a regular basis. My usual stop is in the morning on the way to work. I have a specific order and it’s made correctly and delicious without me even having to say it. Bri and Jenn make me feel so welcomed, I drive from the eastbank just to bring my business to them. They take pride in the store and their work. This location is kept clean and makes for a pleasant experience. However and unfortunately, I doubled back and visited a second time one day of last week and had a very different experience. I was helped by a young man with a very nasty attitude. I didn’t get his name but he was working drive through and his hair is styled in a bush. I typically don’t like to leave negative comments but I was so disappointed. He went back and forth with me about collecting my information in order to receive my reward points. He insisted on not taking my phone number or code until after completing the transaction when I told him that every other time it’s collected before payment. He was combative and rude. He displayed frustration by rolling his eyes at me and told me I don’t make any sense. When I insisted he take the information before payment to avoid any errors, he acted as if he didn’t want to assist me any further. The experience was so opposite of what I’m used to at this location I felt compelled to make this comment. The morning crew is delightful and I’m pretty sure my business will follow Bri and Jenn to any location in the city. The evening crew, however, may have some room for improvement.

Even though I go there on a weekly basis, I wish they would run the people smoking weed away from the outside premises. It makes me sick and nauseous while I go through the drive thru.

I hate to leave a bad review, but it has to be said. This location in Algiers is the worst PJ's I have ever been too. This past week including today I have ordered the same ice-cold brew coffee with pure cane syrup and 3 times already I have had to get out of my car and go inside for the workers to fix my coffee correctly. Why do I need to go back for my order to be fixed? That's the point of having a quick Drive thru. I get charged .80 cents extra for the syrup and never get it in my coffee. The young male worker takes the order and then asks you again once you get by the window to repeat yourself again. Why can't you just get it right the first time? I went in store to get my money back and the acting manager took so long to give me a refund that I asked them to just put the correct sugar in my coffee. It seems like they do this on purpose or something. What I don't understand is how is it that you can't find a physical receipt that I just signed for (10 mins ago). Also, there were some men who clearly are probably the owners on their laptops and talking and none of them tried to help me fix this issue. I will never go to this PJs in Algiers ever again. Side note. Their sweets are always burnt.

I popped in for moment for a cup of coffee and decided to try a muffin. The atmosphere was nice. The place smelled great. The staff was very pleasant.
OMG…it was the best muffin I have ever placed in my mouth!! I think it was a cappuccino muffin. SO moist! Best ever!!
Thanks PJs for a wonderful experience!

While the kids working there are nice, the consistency and knowledge/training on making various coffee’s are horrible! The latest ownership of this shop seems to show no interest in the business or making it better. It’s sad that it’s beginning to suck!
I’ve copied and pasted this review because I thought it was just me! This is the closest Pj’s to my house so I like to go there but I literally waste my money everytime! Ethan is the only barista that is consistent with my drinks. But I haven’t seen him in a while. NOBODY ELSE KNOWS HOW TO MAKE ANYTHING! I drive to the one in Harvey where my drink is always correct. But I don’t always have time and they close early. So, I result to going to Starbucks across the street or another local coffee shop in Algiers point. But every now and then I give them another try and the drinks are still terrible. It’s so disappointing.

Took our order 3 times. Mixed all 3 items up. Requested to cut our child bagel before giving to us- did not help with that. I regret over tipping. I will not be back for this mess
I'm impressed with the quality effort these guys put out. Stephen provides great service. I'd recommend the Algiers location to anyone in a bad mood, they will certainly save the day!

It takes forever to get someone to help you because they have one poor girl doing the inside purchases and drive thru!!!
