The owner Marta, and her amazing staff have given Redmond residents a delicious, welcoming, and all around more enjoyable experience than nearby neighbor Sbux. Skip the generic small talk and stale corporate coffee and come see McKenna, and the other highly experienced baristas next door at DarkHorse... the grind is spot on, quality beans, and they know how to time a shot so it's never burnt or chalky. Be it you are running late for work and need a quick cup, or are having the hardest day of your life and need a cup of coffee comfort: come here so you can leave with a perfect cup, and a full heart every time. (Try the salted caramel Mochas w/Breve-Mckenna makes them heavenly).

Super inexpensive local coffee shop. I drove by it one day and didn't even realize it was an old bank that they had turned into a coffee shop. Their coffee is definitely one of my favorites and it's very reasonable! I paid $3.70 for an 8 ounce latte before adding tip. I recommend it if you're in the area!

I'm not sure how they did it, but that was the BEST mocha I have ever experienced!! Angels from heaven made that cup of goodness! I told my bf I didn't want to live here, until I tasted this, now I would like to move here! Thank you A+++

This place is really amazing!!! I just stopped by for a coffee, and it offers so many flavors and really feel good drinks! The pricing is very just, and the options are great. The person who always works there is sweet, and I hope this place doesn't ever close!

Love the lattes here! 24 oz at a super price. The baristas are SUPER friendly and fast. I'm happy to go to a local place, like this, over a chain any day.

This is the best coffee I've found in Redmond, possibly the whole east side. Friendly, knowledgeable baristas and a fantastic coffee brew makes this a spot I literally go out of my way to visit. Really cool vibe/really tasty coffee makes this a no-brainer to recommend. The barista always remembers my name, too!

Hands down the best coffee I've had. Their cold brew is brewed perfectly, flavorful with no bitterness and their espresso is equally wonderful. You will never have a better Americano. And they have plenty of mixed beverages for those who still eat sugar, as well as snack options. But the coffee, the real coffee is the best here, and it's the best anywhere.

This place needs to be shut down during corona virus or have their employees have basic hygiene manners. I hate leaving bad reviews for small Businesses especially at this time. So instead of getting Starbucks I wanted to support them. But the girl that worked the coffee stand today deserves it. The world is already going crazy about the virus so she shouldn't be touching the top of the straw (you put that in your mouth) with her bare hands. She obviously does not wash her hands between customers. I witnessed that. She takes money and credit cards from people and doesn't even wear gloves. She also wiped her hands on her pants and proceeded to put a straw in my coffee. Then she touches my straw and expects me to put it in my mouth. After I said can you please take that out I'll use my own straw. She said are you going to sanitize the cup too?! Really smart a**?!!! And she had the guts to say well if your so scared don't get coffee! I work in healthcare so yes I'm scared. I'm scared I'll pass it on to someone else who's going to die from it. Be more cautious and we will all be fine. This place is not safe at this time. Avoid it! They are not taking any precautions at this time.

Been coming here a long time. Always excellent service, baristas who are lovely, thoughtful, caring - and excellent at their work. Love the breakfast burritos.
