Not a bad place, very nice atmosphere, but it is VERY overpriced. The coffee was incredibly small and very mediocre, but not bad. Unless I have a very good reason, i'm probably just going to stick with Gypsy's Coffee House instead. I will admit, though, its closeness to the TCC Metro campus is a point in its favor

Foolish Things Coffee Co. isn't just a coffee shop; it's an experience. From the moment you step inside, you're enveloped in a warm and inviting atmosphere, buzzing with a friendly energy that makes you feel instantly welcome. The aroma of expertly roasted beans fills the air, a promise of the delightful brew to come. And they deliver! My latte was a masterpiece, the milk steamed to velvety perfection with intricate latte art that was almost too beautiful to drink. Beyond the exceptional coffee, the service is truly outstanding. The baristas are knowledgeable, passionate, and genuinely happy to help you find your perfect cup. They take the time to answer questions and offer recommendations, making you feel like a valued guest. The ambiance is also noteworthy, striking a perfect balance between cozy and vibrant, making it an ideal spot for catching up with friends, working remotely, or simply enjoying a moment of caffeinated bliss. Foolish Things has undoubtedly earned its five stars and has become my go-to for a truly exceptional coffee experience.

Not going to talk smack . I will just say this I would not order food or coffee in this place and unless I was in a chess tournament t I would never spend another dollar there. Way over priced

Customer service when having my order taken was subpar. I asked the barista a question about modifying my drink and looking at more expensive drinks and their flavor. He shot me down because he only drinks black coffee. I ordered the less expensive cold brew instead of a more expensive upscaled drink because he was uninterested in helping me with my choice. 3 stars because the coffee wasn't bad and I liked that there were several small community groups meeting in the shop, such as some chess players and a running club.

Jared and Bonnie were super attentive to our coffee needs. Highly likely trying the brown sugar latte! So tasty!

We went in for coffee and doughnuts. We stood at the counter for close to 5 minutes before anyone asked if we needed anything. We ordered 2 doughnuts and coffee but was told that coffee needed to be ordered at the “next” register over. We went 3 feet to the next register and waited another minute or 2 for someone to help. Come to find out, the person for coffee was sitting in the restaurant talking to her friend and playing with a dog. She finally acknowledged us and decided to take our order (I don’t think she washed her hands). The coffee was poor at best and the service was worse. As we sat there eating doughnuts and attempting to drink bad coffee, 2 other families came in and we hilariously watched as the exact same thing happened to them. One family just left without being acknowledged. The girl working the coffee side still sat there and said nothing to people standing at the counter. It was the funniest, saddest and craziest thing I have ever seen from a business. It was not a surprise that we were the only people in the restaurant on a Sunday. I don’t know if the owner knows or cares about what goes on there but as a business owner myself, I wish someone would say something to me. Best of luck in your future, I will not be back.

I went here about two years ago and really liked this place. The atmosphere is really cool and the staff are very nice!
However, my recent visit last week 11/7/24 wasn't nearly as good (in regards to the food). I had a hot chocolate and a blueberry muffin to go. The hot chocolate was just okay and not nearly as good as I had remembered. The blueberry muffin didn't have enough blueberries in it and was just bland.
Great atmosphere with a mix of large shared tables for groups and smaller tables for more intimate gatherings. There’s also excellent seating along the windows and outdoors. However, a downside was when we ordered two pour-over coffees but were served coffee from a pump dispenser. After watching them pump out two cups, I asked, ‘Is this a pour-over?’ The gentleman replied that they use the same beans as the pour-over, so it’s ‘the same.’ Disappointed, I took the cups and walked away.

Fantastic place for remote work. Stopped in for a few hours passing through and they had big tables, lots of power strips, mellow music, good food and drinks, wifi, everything needed to get er done. I so appreciate this place!

The muffin was good just not warm. Which would've been nice but I didn't ask for it. The staff are super nice. The atmosphere is pleasant and quiet. The matcha latte is good just has a potent fresh taste so be ready for it. The staff work really hard and it shows. Thank you for the matcha and muffin😊

Wow! What a cool place with AMAZING coffee! Clean environment and good juju! Met a good friend here with my niece and had a great vegetable hash for breakfast! Booming little shop that deserves your hard earned dollars!
