Ordinary drink options. My drinks have been gritty, so I don't know if they used powdered mixes, or if I'm getting residue from the machine.

We were in the area for a XC meet and wanted to avoid Starbucks and Dutch Bros. We ended up at espresso stop and got a few drinks. Pricing wasn't posted so we were a bit shocked at the pricing for drinks. A 16 oz Americano was 6 dollars and a 16oz Chai late was 8$!!! I recommend just sticking with Starbucks.

We arrived at 6:45 pm. When we pulled up to the window the barista explained to us that she could not make anymore espresso drinks because she had already cleaned the machine and they closed in 10 minutes. As a barista myself this is very annoying. I have the opinion that a customer should be able to order ANY drink that they want up until closing time. Obviously I know that it may be frustrating to have customers come by right before closing, but they are still paying customers. Im not sure if this is just a barista preference, or if it’s an owner/manager preference, regardless it’s not something I would choose to do when I have my own coffee shop.

I would like to add the barista was very nice about it, she was not rude, but it is upsetting we couldn’t grab our last min drinks for the day.

Biggest issue is sanitation. I saw a barista today touch her use her thumb and touch her teeth and not wash her hands at all. When handling drinks and food you definitely shouldn’t be touching your hair, face and then serving food and drinks.

Been going to this stand for a while. The barista Jules is the best. She is so loving, caring, and just a wonderful person to be around. She always makes my day a whole lot better. I always leave with a smile and if I don’t have one when I get there she makes sure I leave with one. I will definitely be coming back again and again. You are one in a billion Jules🫶

I will start with the lady working the stand was very friendly and the coffee was good. Not the best I’ve ever had but better than most in the immediate area. My issue is I ordered a 16 oz iced americano (shots and water) topped with heavy cream. Nothing extra just the standard amount of shots they put in a 16 oz no flavor or anything and my total before tip was $7.78. NEVER in my life have I ever paid that much for an americano. They aren’t even that much in the airport! Absolutely outrageous!

Good Italian Sodas. Unfortunately, they're 70% ice (even when less ice is requested).

Editing this review because quality has gone WAY down at this location.

We used to see the same few crew members working out of this location. Since the beginning of the year I have NOT ONCE seen the same person twice, sonit appears they can't keep people in who know the menu or know how to make quality coffee.

It's very possible this is because despite the location being incredibly busy with two baristas working, they decided earlier in the year they only needed one, so whoever is in there is CLEARLY overworked. Probably underpaid too.

Owners, you need to keep good talent in your locations by making sure they have adequate help, training, pay, etc or else your product quality suffers greatly. This used to be my favorite coffee place and now it sucks.

The baristas here were very attentive and I got my caramel macchiato in record time! I've just recently started going to espresso stop and have only had good experiences! Thank you again!
