“The barista was so friendly and sweet! We loved the flavor combinations on the secret menu, we tried the Samoa and the Pumpkin Pie latte and both were delicious, not too sweet and plenty of flavor. We’ll be back next time we’re in the area.“
“The service was great! We had never been and the person with the cool hand tattoos was very nice and accomodating. The sundried tomato cream cheese we got for our asiago bagel was phenominal, and the drinks were a delight. We tried two of their specialty drinks mine was the Taurus and it was sweet, spiced, and creamy I loved it. My partners drink was their Gemini coffee and it was less sweet, but had a nice caramel flavor and the espresso taste that he loved. Such a cozy spot with a variety of delicious pastries that are flavorful and warm. We will definitely be back!“
“I absolutely LOVED the pink decor, cutest coffee shop ever! I had the best coffee and an amazing breakfast sandwich that was full of flavor. I highly recommend this shop and they have the kindest staff. Thank you for all of your hard work and the heart that goes into this place! Will definitely be coming back ?“
“It's a homie kind of place meaning like old school back home the food is good the service is great and it's like family there's no other way to put it than that I used to go about once a week I moved out of state since I retired I'll be back it's been 14 months that's the first place I'm going for breakfast I highly recommend it if you like good old family cafe Atmosphere“
“My husband took me here and we ordered their homemade black sesame macaroon, strawberry milk macaroon and their strawberry waffle. Not only are they picture perfect but they're the perfect balance of sweetness and flavor. I also ordered their iced strawberry matcha and it tastes even better than the matcha at starbucks. I really love this cafe, not only was the staff friendly but I got to meet the owner and he was very nice and humble. I would encourage anyone to stop by and give it a try.Parking: There’s lots of parking in the back of on it near the apartments“
“The colors of the walls are vibrant and alive, the staff are very upbeat and happy. If you're looking for a healthy place to eat, this is it! I was surprised and impressed by the size of my wrap. The cost of the food was even less than going to Subway AND got more to eat. My daughter had a fun time eating the chips they sold, and she enjoyed the fruit bowl.This is definitely a one-stop shop for a healthy meal whether it's lunch or dinner!Dietary restrictions: Very friendly to people with dietary needs.Kid-friendliness: My daughter threw her tantrum, but the staff were very positive about it. I felt bad, but they made it definitely feel like it wasn't as big of a deal and I always feel bad for everyone else around us when she has her meltdowns.“
“This is one of my favorite places to eat in Tacoma! If you’re looking for a great breakfast or lunch, this is it. It’s located downtown on the corner of 11th and Pacific. The menu has a lot of options; everything from coffee, smoothies, sandwiches, and even some delicious traditional Korean dishes. I recommend trying the bibimbap–it’s AMAZING! The service is great, too. Penny is so sweet, and always remembers my order. The atmosphere is very welcoming. There’s plenty of seating if you’re dining in, but you can also order your food to-go. I’ve never had to wait long for my food and it’s less expensive than other places in the area. If you work or live in the area, you should definitely visit Lucky Penny Cafe!“
“Ordered a 1/2 salad and it was the smallest salad I have ever seen for $8. Chicken in the ceasar was tasty but still thawing, on the verge of frozen. A couple pieces of lettuce had icky black areas and I tossed them. It didn't ruin anything but was disappointing.“
“One of the best cafe's around. Always quick and delicious food that is reasonably priced.But, it is the SERVICE that keeps me coming back almost daily. "Yuson" can change a bad day to good. She is sincerely one of the best you'll find. Nearly every time I leave the Cafe, I honestly feel like I'm enveloped in a big ball of warm light. I just adore her. Would definitely recommend this Cafe.“
“Excellent inviting cafe, friendly staff and delicious food. Kids found this establishment for us to have brunch at before the ice show at Sprinker recreation. They have a market on the opposite side of the restaurant as well. Recommend to dine here, we'll be back.“
“We were looking for a cute and intimate coffee shop to go to to have a meeting. Coffee Kitchen was just that. It was so cleaned, well designed, and so cozy and intimate. There are a ton of options on the menu it was hard to pick one, but I had the breakfast waffle and an honey almond latte. Both were AMAZING! Absolutely DELICIOUS. I loved it and highly recommend you give it a try.“
“Grabbed a few banh mi's and drinks from this cool spot in Proctor and wow, so good! The bread is crunchy but still soft and warm. They use fresh ingredients and the service is fast and friendly! Vietnamese iced coffee is strong and delicious and they also have tasty bubble teas. So satisfying and can't wait to go back!!!“
“I feel like we live here ?? this is our favorite coffee stand ever. We will even go out of our way to go here because not only are they incredibly nice but they make amazing drinks AND have a no meat burrito that is delicious!!!!Vegetarian options: They have a ton of vegetarian options muffin, cookies, waffles and more BUT their no meat burritos are ? the best vegetarian optionKid-friendliness: Always so sweet to our little girl and offer a lollipop every time ♥️?“
“Never been disappointed with the drinks I've gotten here, and I pinky promised the barista I wouldn't lie if I were dissatisfied. The service is amazing, my usual barista recognized me only the second time I went there, unfortunately I never remembered to ask her name :(. But I 100% recommend this place, I haven't seen my usual barista there for a while but everyone is so friendly and awesome, the drinks and food are sooo good!“
“Intentions Juice and Smoothie Tacoma is a delightful gem that I never tire of visiting. The ambiance is always a vibe - clean, comfortable, and filled with great music that sets the perfect tone. The art from local artists adds a unique touch, and the curated retail offerings from local makers (Black Sunflower candles and more!) are a lovely addition. The food is consistently fresh, made to order, and I appreciate the convenience of being able to order ahead when necessary. The staff is a standout - always polite, professional, and genuinely happy to assist. I love Intentions Juice and Smoothie Tacoma and you will too!“
“Cute lil coffee shop with indoor and outdoor seating. Came in with the sweetie for an afternoon out of the house. Delicious breakfast burritos. Looks like some seasonal items in rotation. The apple cider is tasty! Plenty of non-coffee drinks and a good selection of bakery items. Excellent price to quality ratio.The barista was very sweet and sold me on the wrapped cookies at the counter, after I found out they were vegan and hesitant to try them. It ended up being one of my favorites.Dietary restrictions: They have alt milks for lactose intolerant folks!“
“The staff are so friendly. Service was fast. My veggie burrito was amazing and I even got an actual mini bottle of hot sauce ?. Coffe was yummy as well. Will be backVegetarian options: I got veggie burrito which was amazing. They even give you actual bottles of mini hot sauce.“
“I tried the mudslide frappe today and it was my first time at this coffee stand. The location is great and ease of getting in and out was great. The code drink was fantastic. The customer service was "meh", barista didn't seem happy or wanting to be there. I would try again and recommend to others.Wheelchair accessibility: Drive up only option no indoor area“
“This is my local coffee shop. I come and sit and enjoy my cuppa almost every day. Staff is wonderful, friendly and caring. Sometimes orders take longer than at other places, but it is always done right. They also make a lot of their ingredients from scratch (the caramel for example).“
“Wow! Cafe Azure is a must stop cafe in downtown Tacoma! The drinks, food, and service were all phenomenal. My barista Eden provided top tier customer service and made the best cappuccino I have ever had! This cafe was clean and also had such a good vibe. I can't wait to go back!“
“This family owned deli is conveniently located in the down town business district in Tacoma, & offers a variety of good food, at a reasonable price. The sandwiches are delicious! And made with fresh ingredients. ( Side note, I believe they cater as well! ) Maria makes the BEST white chocolate mochas! I highly recommend this deli, good food, reasonable price, and friendly staff.“
“Great coffee in to go drive up fashion with little muss or fuss... The staff are friendly and quick but the place can load up with customers sometimes in an awkward line . Adria served us for the week we were in town. She did us many favors including a to go small bag of decaf in a baggie because they don't offer a full pound to take back on our flight to home..My wife said her travel bag never smelled so wonderful when we arrived home from the airport... Thanks ADRIA....“
“Amazing breakfast sandwiches with vegan options including a vegan croissant!! You don't see that very often. Great funky vibes with an attached vintage shopVegetarian options: Vegan/vegetarian options are clearly marked on the menu and regular sandwiches can be altered to have vegan meats“
“Drinks are always delicious and very friendly staff. It is great how they allow you to customize your drinks for sugar-free or decaf. I feel they have the best variety of options and beverages in the area. The food is yummy and well priced. We’ve enjoyed their breakfast sandwiches, sandwiches and breakfast bowls. This place is definitely a gem in the community and topped off with a cute Mary Poppins theme . Ordering with the Joe App makes it super easy to order ahead and pick up and they are always quick.“
“Down home cafe vibe and food. Huge portions and tastes like grandma is cooking in the back for you. They no longer have gluten free items marked on the menu, but have plenty of options, including gluten free pancakes. I safely eat gf breakfast here at least monthly and never get sick.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options“
“All the girls are always super nice, they have soooo many different mixed drinks (coffee and energy alike) I asked for a menu so I posted a picture of one. Their instagram page they always post new drink ideas I was mostly ordering things based off of their insta posts alone, and every drink is super good. I’m always nervous getting a coffee from new places but they actually have pretty good, strong coffee so I’ll definitely be going every now and then when I do get a coffee out and about“
“I’ve been eating at this place for the last two years and it is the most delicious, amazing food that you can get in the area for the price. The couple that runs the place are absolutely amazing human beings and every order is made made with love. Try any item on the menu, I promise you will not be disappointed. My favorite is the BLTA on sourdough or the bacon, egg and cheese breakfast burrito for breakfast. Absolutely Delicious!“
“I was craving biscuits and gravy while I was in the hospital waiting to give birth. Found this spot here in Yelp so my husband went to pick up some food and coffee. Coincidentally, the barista was also a doula and wrote a sweet note for me on my B&G box. The biscuits and gravy was perfect - just original .. none of the extra crap trying to make jt fancy. It hits the spot! My husband said the coffee was great too.“
“I come here for lunch often but decided to take my kids for breakfast. They got the crepes and they looked great and they were very happy and I got the breakfast burrito and it was amazing!! Not too big but not small and super full of all the things you want in your breakfast burrito! I highly recommend this place for breakfast or lunch!“
“When i lived in Tacoma and had quite possibly the worst time of my life because of my living situation. this cafe would take care of me and i would always look forward to my day off to just have a latte and eat a yummy treat. The staff were so nice to me and kind and created such a welcoming environment.“
“We have been to this coffee house multiple times, it's always bustling and putting off good coffee house vibes. We stopped in today for some coffees before walking around downtown Sumner, the flavors that are present in these coffees are more pronounced than in a similar chain coffee establishments drinks. We sat down on the couch and were able to relax while enjoying our drinks, browse the magazines, and people watch too. Definitely recommend to anyone who is curious“
“Mal is the sweetest barista. I've been going for months and she's always quick for a new drink selection or idea, she's attentive and kind. Definitely will keep coming here. She also has a phenomenal sense of humor and I always look forward to chatting“
“Quarter Chute is too much fun. Good food in family atmosphere and you can watch the horses train! The staff is friendly, like amazingly friendly….truly happy to see you. We had a group of 11 and it was no problem. Highly recommended!“
“Randomly saw this place nestled in a residential neighborhood and decided to stop in. Very glad that I did ? Nice comfortable atmosphere, very clean place. Got a great sandwich and then a beer that I sat outside on their available benches to drink. Absolutely nothing bad to say about this place, will be “
“Bubble Island has the same friendly atmosphere as they did years ago. Their drink quality is the same. The wall is still filled with polaroids from many years ago. Even with the new owners throughout the years, it remains nostalgic to many people. Your typical smoothie/bubble tea shop.“
“After ordering flowers from terrible online florists who deliver old, expensive, and underwhelming bouquets, we decided to support a small business instead. So happy we did because our loved ones were stunned by the bouquet that A Rhapsody in Bloom put together.The website was easy to navigate and delivery was available starting the following day, which was amazing. The bouquet that was delivered was even better than the sample image online.Definitely felt the love that was put into the bouquet. Will definitely be ordering from here again!!“
“Wow, this might have been the best coffee I've had in a long time! I got 4 drinks for under $25, so a good deal. The spring fling is A+, and they made one of the energy drinks into a club soda based one for my child. Will hit them up every time I'm in the area.Kid-friendliness: All of the red bull and locus drinks can be subbed with club soda to make an Italian soda.“
“BobaLust in Tacoma is one of my favorite Boba joints in Washington. My go-to order is the OG Milk Tea Boba. It’s always perfectly made and delicious!BobaLust has 9 Washington locations. I have visited both of the Tacoma locations. I was especially happy to discover this newest location near the Tacoma Mall because it’s much easier to get to than the downtown location, and it has free parking.Highly Recommended!!!“
“I found this place on Instagram a few months back. I finally made it out here and was not disappointed. Got a drink for my teenage son and myself. Both drinks were delicious. Mine had collagen and protein with a boost of energy powder. Best part zero sugar! This is now gonna be my new place. I would say this place is better than any smoothie place out there. The service was amazing and I felt like a friend walking in. Lots of amazing options to pick from. Side note, for those that don't speak Spanish...please be patient. The lady that was working when I came in was a primarily Spanish speaking lady. I am bilingual and was able to chat it up with her. If you are used to those fancy drink places where people us the work "like" every other word...this is not a place for you. However if you want to enjoy a healthy delicious drink and can put aside the language barrier then PLEASE support this business. You will not regret it. I will be back here.“
“I'm glad I made the choice to stop by this local shop. Though my mobile order was overlooked, it didn't actually bother me too much because it gave me a chance to glance around the shop a bit more than I originally would've.AtmosphereThe cafe was decorated in a fashion that made it feel very welcoming, as if stepping into a friend's living space. Being an artist myself, the first thing that caught my attention was the local art decorating the walls. I love it when local stores consign local art to help fuel their passion.FoodThe chai is better than I was expecting! It's been a while since I've had such a flavorful chai. It actually reminded me that I need to slow down on going to Starbucks so that I can enjoy my drinks again.I also grabbed an eggplant panini which is so-so. I'm not a huge fan, but I could see others enjoying it more. I think it was because it fell apart too easily and I was expecting someone more enclosed.ServiceI actually was caught off guard as soon as I walked in. I didn't expect everyone to welcome me so abruptly, which was nice.Once my drink was ready, the barista personally walked the drink to where I was sitting and thanked me - which was a nice touch.OverallI liked this spot and will more than likely return here the next time I need a cup of pick-me-up while in Auburn.“
“I like this quirky joint more every time I go there! I started by stopping in for coffee and healthy delicious brunches/lunches, but have started popping in during the evenings. Whether it's an open mic, an art show, or a cabaret performance, it seems that there is always something fun going on! I've gotten to see so much talent on display here! All the employees are super friendly, the food is bomb and the coffee is great! I am so stoked to have found this neighborhood gem!“
“This is the best Boba I have found in Washington. The milk tea flavors are flavorful but not too sweet, the boba is the perfect texture, and the pebble ice makes it even better. Staff is always very friendly and welcoming too! Seriously the best. 10/10!“
“Wonderful! I don’t eat grits, but I’ll eat the loaded shrimp and grits all day at Lizzie Lou’s too! The shrimp, crab, grits, eggs just meld together and the flavors explodes. My daughter brought back this dish to me on my birthday, my first taste of the shrimp and grits and now if I could have it every day, I would. Please don’t hesitate to go out to Lizzy Lou’s Too. You’ll love it and the service.“
