I have been visiting the Standpipe for many many years. I am not local, but always stop by for coffee when visiting family. This last time I ordered an Irish Lodge frappuccino, made with oat milk, no whipped cream (I'm allergic to dairy) - this order was hands down addicting to taste, I was so sad when I had finished it. Unfortunately, I had taken my parents in with me, and I have to say the music was way too loud, not calm but pop music, on top of many people talking. I had never seen the Standpipe so full, in the 15 years I have been going, great for business, but the music was too much and we did not want to sit inside. Nevertheless, thank you for making me amazing coffee!!

Excellent coffee and consistently great despite all the changes over the years! I’m really picky about my blended coffees but my blended mocha was on point👌 I also got the lemon cookie which was simply heavenly

This review is for whoever implemented a one refill policy on your drip coffee as the rest of my experience was wonderful. What's an extra refill cost you? Pennies? Not that it will matter to you, but you've motivated me to spend my money elsewhere.
I only visit Standpipe during the holidays because I'm not often in East Texas anymore, but I've always enjoyed working remotely at Standpipe because the WiFi is reliable, the people are friendly, and the coffee is great.
No one has ever questioned my requesting a 2nd refill until this visit, and the incredibly polite, apologetic barista advised me I would be required to pay for an additional refill, today. Previously, I would always put a 2-dollar bill in the tip jar on each visit to the register. Typically I end up tipping 6 dollars worth of 2-dollar bills as 3 cups of coffee is typically where I cut myself off. I'm not much for recreational heart palpitations. Today, I was proceeding as I normally would until I was advised I would not be afforded a 2nd refill without paying another almost 5 dollars to enjoy more drip coffee.
I likely would have enjoyed lunch here as well, but I'm electing to take my business elsewhere. I have no delusions that I am but a drop in the bucket and my review bears little weight, but what would the cost of an additional refill have been to you?

You know coming up to somebody with a fake smile and a pretentious attitude and being a part owner of a place is a good way to lose yourself money as somebody comes in there and spends over + $100 a week on drinks it gets a little annoying when I'm sitting there for less than 20 minutes before ordering mind you I see people sit in there for hours without ordering so take this negative review and maybe have a conversation with the lady in the red shirt this morning tell her to shut up and not this off the customers
Wonderful nostalgic feeling of an old coffee shop. Great place for morning coffee on a fall morning

Second time going, first time was 11/13 and the redbull recharger I got tasted great but the service wasn’t too great, as a ex-barista you at minimum supposed to greet the person, but when I got to the register all I got was a blank stare and even waited to see if she was ready to take my order she just get a dirty look until I said something. Today 11/14 I thought I’d try something else and got a dirty Dr Pepper with two shots of espresso and cold from, it tasted okay until I got a bit of grinds in my mouth and saw how much was in the cup too. Thought the atmosphere was cool but wish the environment of people were nicer.

Standpipe is a great coffee shop! The baristas are friendly and make suggestions when asked. The shop smells like coffee:-). I love their homemade whipped cream!
