“My favorite branch for coffee, they make great coffee.I visit this place frequently every day, and it is close to my home. The staff is very nice, and the café is crowded at some points of the day.Free parking is available, and designated parking for people with disabilities.“
“Whoever is responsible for hiring at this location is on point, this is not only the best staffed Biggby but quite possibly the best staffed coffee shop in the world in general! Super friendly and exceptionally helpful with ordering and explaining items. Always smiles on the faces of these wonderfully helpful people. I would come here all the time but the overall vibe of the place (staff excluded) leaves a bit to be desired.Indoor color scheme is jarring, outside looks like it could use a face lift, but the drive through is pretty great and, again, the staff keep it moving quickly while still assuring quality of product delivered to drivers. I love their little tip jar themes, even if I wasn't a tipper and/or didn't love the staff here, I would still put a little sumpin sumpin in there for creativity alone.Sadly, through no fault of staff, this place gets 1 star for atmosphere and a deduction from an otherwise overall 5 star rating because although I can imagine worse places, this could be so much more inviting and comfortable. Why maintain a dining area that no one wants to sit in? I need to be in town from out of state for an extended period for personal and family reasons and find myself in need of a place to work remotely for the time. Instead of coming here for it's much more convenient location, friendly staff, and great menu, I instead go all the way to Panera almost daily and have joined their drink membership program ONLY because they don't have music blasting out of a music system that is in serious need of an upgrade. Seriously, this is the only reason! Seems like an easy enough fix. Someone please get this awesome staff (and me!) a decent speaker/sound system installed it sounds like listening to old cassettes from the inside of a my high school boyfriend's hand-me-down Chevy from 1980, there's only so much I can take of it :( Will amend rating when I see some much needed upgrade action, don't be slumlords!“

“Love this sweet book store. Great selection of books for readers of all ages and genres. Staff will help you find what you’re looking for, and if they don’t have it, they will order it for you, or you can easily order online from their website and go pick it up when it arrives. Cafe has a variety of beverages ranging from coffees to flights of wine to cocktails to unwind. There are also snacks, baked goods and heavier fare if you are more than a little hungry. They have events during the week, they change it up quite a bit. Plenty of seating to catch up with a friend, do a little studying, or just buy a book and get lost in it. A lovely addition to the area, really glad it’s here.“

“I had read about this place when looking for places not far from MSU and thought it sounded interesting. I've never tried Turkish food and it was amazing. I met up with my daughter and 2 of her friends and all of us liked all of our lunches. I also got a piece of Baklava to go and it was amazing. The Turkish tea was amazing also. I will definitely be back!“

“I was helped by a blonde cashier, who was super friendly, and greeted me with an enthusiastic. Happy Monday! The service was wonderful. I ordered a mango smoothie, there was a miscommunication about having the cream on top, and they were so helpful in getting me a new one. It may have been my fault because my hearing is not the best. Regardless, they were very friendly and accommodating. My mother who used to have her own bakery, and is now retired, is quite a baked goods snob. In a good way. She loved the three different desserts I had her try. She usually doesn't like anyone's baked goods, but her own, but I could tell she absolutely loved the crêpe cake, the strawberry shortcake cup, and the dark chocolate cheesecake.The baked goods were so good, I went back later this evening, to get a mango slush, made with real fruit, and two other baked goods.“

“Goodness this place is a great place to take a break from the tedium of 96! Fresh made bagels and pretzels pair nicely with the simple coffee menu.Once you've got your treats be sure to explore the place some, plenty of places to sit and relax before saddling up for the trail once again.“

“Absolute best Cortado I’ve ever had!!!!!! It’s the same delicious and perfect blend and flavor every single time!!! If you have a developed palette for good coffee, this is the best place to go in Lansing! Also best black brewed coffee! And, it’s not just the best because we’re in Lansing. I’ve traveled all the US to big cities, and Strange Matter would hold its own in any of those cities as well! Thanks friends for your dedication to the craft and sharing it with us! ?“

“I’ve been a long time regular at downtown and have nothing but high praises for it. The baristas consistently improve my mood with their friendly demeanor and witty jokes! Liv, Zac, Jac, & the rest of the baristas always treat me like one of their own and always make me feel welcome. I look forward to getting food and coffee from here almost every very day I can afford to. The shop’s atmosphere matches the aesthetic of downtown to a t and I’m happy that this is the premier craft coffee spot in the area. Despite the greater Lansing area being hostile to LGBT people, it’s nice to have a little sanctuary where we all feel safe. I love the cortados and dirty chais that I get. Academic studies claim that 3rd spaces are dying and strange matter is a large exception to that notion. From a study spot that isn’t my apartment to a place to meet friends and family, strange matter consistently fills a need in my life for a reliable 3rd space. I’ve worked in coffee in the past and the staff’s passion for what they do clearly shows. Best damn coffee shop in all of Lansing.“

“We've tried many tea places in East Lansing, but this is our favorite! The tea tastes so much better than other places, and they offer a good variety of products and flavors on the menu. Everyone is kind also and I have yet to have a bad experience there. Definitely my first choice for milk tea or boba in East Lansing.“

Definitely worth the trip. 10/10 will visit again.Dietary restrictions: Plenty of options for those who can't handle milk (lactose intolerant). Absolutely delightful soy milk creme cake.“

“Gotten coffee here a few times (both bagged coffee and drinks). Their coffee is very good and service is always quick and friendly. Sometimes it varies on how busy they are (at least on my experience). Either not many people there or it is pretty full. Either way though, service is great and good “

“I absolutely love this coffee place. I live in Grand Ledge and this is THE spot for me to get away to read, study, or simply hang with friends. The coffee is Great and the folks who work here, Michaela, Makayla, Keagen, Michael, and (Natalie, i think is the other one), is VERY hospitable and genuine. They greet us as we come in and wish us well as we leave❤️“
“I love this coffee shop! I was bummed when the Biggby in this location closed because I love the atmosphere. However I’m not a fan of Biggby- so when the Hob Nob opened, I was so excited. Their drinks are so good, not overly sugary like Biggby. And everyone that works there is so nice and friendly. I only wish they were open on the weekends so I could spend more time there.“

“I had a simple latte which was well made with just the right amount of frothiness. The baristas were attentive and laid back, enjoyed the quiet friendliness. The venue was in East Lansing across from Jolly Pumpkin--liked the vibe there. I've yet to visit the Trowbridge location.“

“Stopped by on a Saturday morning for the first time. The restaurant was busy but not full yet. The menu is the perfect size for the staff to be able to produce an amazing product. As the food comes out, you will notice that every plate is photo worthy. I was thrilled that my Bongo omelet looked as great as it tasted. The table behind me had ordered the Huevos Rancheros, and I will be back soon to order it for myself. I also need to try the corned beef after noticing it go by. If you are looking for a wonderful way to start your day, please stop by.“

“Love this place :)I live nearby, and come in when I need to get work done. It could be considered loud, but the smells of coffee, the music, and the consistent bustle of people around you is the perfect recipe for people who like working in public spaces. One wall is all windows and I love the natural light that floods the whole shop.In the years I’ve been coming here, I’ve never met an unpleasant employee. Quite the opposite ! In fact, not long ago I ordered my usual iced Earl Grey latte, but it was a little weak, so I asked the workers if they had steeped the tea enough. It turned out that their coffee machine’s hot water was not heating up enough, so they quickly brought out their kettle to make my tea instead. Since then, I’ve had a perfect latte every time ! It was that extra effort that makes this place so special, especially since coffee shop baristas aren’t always well acquainted with the science of making tea. Love them. Love it <3My one gripe is that the baked goods tend to be a bit too sweet. But whatevs. Maybe im just an old geezer.“
“On Okemos Street is a good coffee shop.We passed it on our walk this morning, had a cappuccino and a cheese croissant, everything was good, the staff are very respectful, the place is perfect for enjoying your morning coffee, they have outside seating, free parking.ThanksKid-friendliness: SuitableParking: Available, FreeWheelchair accessibility: Available“
“Let me preface this with the fact that I travel all over the state of Michigan for my job. I swing into coffee shops all the time when I’m on the road and give employees of coffee shops and cafes the opportunity to make whatever they want and have creative freedom. I’ve swing into this location a couple of different times but the last two times I’ve been here have prompted me to make a review. The barista Josh know how to make a coffee. It was a mocha cold brew with white chocolate and mint. It was so good I thought about it periodically throughout the week until I was back into Lansing for the day. The customer service of this store is amazing too, Sophia is who I talked two the last two times I visited. this is a store with two highly rated employees. These two definitely deserve recognition for the quality of work they carry out.“

“I went here for the first time today and was blown away. To start, the staff was so friendly (shoutout Lesley and Chloe). Since it was my first time, they gave me suggestions based of my dietary restrictions (vegetarian) and my taste of coffee (sweeter). I got the Greek wrap without the chicken and added avocado based on Lesley's recommendation. It tasted great. Chloe suggested the Smores latte and it was exactly what I wanted. I sat in the Cafe for some time on my laptop (they offer wifi :)) and Chloe and Lesley were so friendly. They also had multiple regulars come in during this time and they remembered their orders; they clearly had built relationships with these customers.“

“This is by far THE BEST location I’ve ever been to…it’s not too busy, and the staff is warm and inviting. The young lady that helped me today was very friendly and is worth her value in gold! In todays world, it’s so difficult to find good employees, let alone good customer service, and this place had both! Whatever management is doing to attract and keep good staff, keep doing it! I will be back! :) the vibes are awesome here! Good people~“

“I almost don’t want to leave this review bc I don’t want to give away my secret. This Biggby is the absolute best one on this side of town. I think it’s usually quiet bc there’s no drive thru. But there’s never a wait, the service is always fabulous, and the food and drinks are always perfect. Zero complaints about this Biggby! Give these people an award!“

“The food here is great! The service is even better. When I went, we had this one waitress with blonde hair in a messy bun. She was super nice toward us and her energy was amazing. She definitely gives off the impression that she loves working here. SHE DESERVES A RAISE!! (Unfortunately I did not catch her name ?)“
“Fantastic staff, drinks are always right for me, and they take MSU Student Cash. I would highly recommend this Starbucks to MSU students but would advise going at rush hour times because the line gets insanely long. Love the location and the staff is very friendly.“

“I had a class over the weekend down the street and knew I'd need a little extra kick to get me through the morning. When I came in and complained to the barista about my lack of sleep and the over-filling of the coffee at another Starbucks, she was extremely empathetic and supportive. Plus, I wavered on whether I wanted medium or dark roast, and she suggested a mix without missing a beat! I loved that she listened to me, and then helped me solve the problem without acting as if I was being annoying for being indecisive (problem when one lacks sleep - especially me.) It was a very enjoyable experience and if I lived in the area, I'd certainly return here for my coffee needs.“
