Waffles near Olympia, WA

“This was my first visit, definitely not my last. I ordered the turkey pesto sandwich with a cup of the loaded baked potato soup, delicious! Sooo nice being able to dine out knowing I’m able to eat anything on the menu…gluten free! Staff is friendly & the atmosphere is cozy!“

“There are places you go for coffee…and then there are places that genuinely make your day better. Johnny’s Coffee Co. is one of those places.

One of the first things you notice when you walk in is how welcome you feel. Not the kind of welcome that feels rehearsed, but something real, something human. People look at you, smile, and you can tell they actually care about your experience.

Lately, it feels like many places are just going through the motions. That’s what makes this place stand out. There’s intention here. The baristas take pride in what they do, and you can see it in every drink they make, crafted with care, consistency, and a quiet professionalism.

It’s refreshing to see people take their work seriously without losing the human side of it. There’s kindness in the way they communicate, patience in the way they listen, and authenticity in every interaction. Nothing feels forced.

Very few places manage to balance quality and connection the way this one does. You’re not just getting a great cup of coffee, you’re getting a moment in your day where things slow down just enough to remind you that people still care.

I’ve always believed in supporting family-owned businesses because they tend to be rooted in something deeper than just business. Johnny’s Coffee reflects that completely. It feels like a place built with purpose, where people matter.

And every time I leave, I notice something simple but meaningful, my day feels a little better. That’s not something you can fake or manufacture. That comes from people who choose to show up the right way, every single day.“

“The drinks are tasty, the staff are friendly, and drinks are made super quickly! I ordered from the recent Genshin collaboration, and it’s ADORABLE!“

“We accidentally found these phenomenal waffles on our way to a softball tournament in Centralia. So phenomenal in fact that we drove out of our way 3 days in a row to come back for breakfast. We tried the Bourbon Maple w/ Bacon, the Dalmatian, The Local GOAT, Jalapeno Business and Banana's foster, all exceeded our expectations. Definitely give Abe's a try, you won't be sorry!“
