7 Best Coffee Shops in Brookings

“The best little coffee shop hands down! Coffee is locally roasted and the variety of drinks is amazing. Fully customizable drinks that range from coffees to smoothies and the Booster, a great pick me up if someone isn't in the mood for Java. Near the port and other shops so you can grab a drink, maybe a pastry, and enjoy the coast!“

“Bell & Whistle Coffee is hands down one of the best spots in Brookings. The drinks are consistently excellent, the food is fresh and flavorful, and the atmosphere is welcoming and laid-back—something that’s hard to find in this area, where other establishments often miss the mark on quality and taste. The owners are kind, hardworking, and clearly care about creating a great experience for their customers.

Now, in response to Ash Mitchell’s review claiming this place isn’t LGBTQ+ friendly—I want to speak from personal experience. I am LGBTQ, I’m an advocate, and I’m proudly a part of this community. I’ve been to Bell & Whistle many times and have never once felt disrespected, judged, or unwelcome. Not even close.

Let’s be real: not every business that doesn’t cater to your personal vibe is discriminatory. If you feel some conviction walking into a place, that’s not the same as being marginalized. There’s a huge difference between not being a fit and falsely calling out discrimination.

Facts matter. And Bell & Whistle deserves to be recognized for what it is—a high-quality, inclusive small business doing things right.“

“Stopped by during a coastal trip and had an awesome experience. Friendly crew, fast service, and the drinks were on point. Great vibe and the perfect pick-me-up with a view of the Oregon coast nearby. Classic Dutch Bros energy never disappoints!“

“My son just was mailed a Dutch bros gift card yesterday for finishing kindergarten registration.. he knocked on all the neighbors door showing them and asking their order 😆 he slept with it, and even took it to school with him today. It hasn’t left his hand ❤️ not so much a review, but I thought it was adorable. (But duh, we all love Dutch! )“

“Great starbucks that we've come to expect, but One of your barista's, Sam, did a fantastic job!“

“They are wonderful people! Great food and customer service. A true gem in brookings! ❤️❤️❤️“

“Bought two beautiful pieces today ~ one from Horst Wolf & the other from Christina Olsen. Yes, the art is great, but the staff makes it even better! They were very patient, informative & helpful. Truly left the gallery feeling hugged � Thank You �“
