I stopped in to grab a coffee while my own espresso machine was being repaired next door. I have been following this shop on Instagram for a while and was excited to try it, as the vibes inside are adorable and I love their menu options. I own my own coffee cart and have 24 years of barista/managing experience, I understand how hard dealing with customers can be every single day. That being said a grumpy unfriendly barista can make or break your business. I didn’t have a very happy face at the counter greeting me. She seems very miserable to be there. I tried hard to keep conversation peppy and light and she didn’t want anything to do with that. Felt like she just wanted me to hurry up. She wasn’t rude, just seemed unamused by my presence. I ordered an Americano with white chocolate and cream (only 2 shots) and I’m sad to say it was the worst coffee I’ve ever had 😭😩 I threw it away the second I got around the corner. I was going to say something but I didn’t have time to go back. It tasted like watered down drip coffee with nothing in it. The bagel was good. All in all, I think minor improvements can make this place much better. Hope the baristas have a better day 🫶🏻

I’ve always really liked this coffee shop. My family, friends, and guests enjoy coming here, and we’ve had many great experiences over the years. However, my wife had a very disappointing visit two days ago, and I feel it’s important for the ownership to be aware.
She and her friend ordered a London Fog and a Hot Chocolate. The drinks took about 10-15 minutes to come out, which already felt unusually long considering the shop wasn’t extremely busy. But when the drinks were finally delivered, they were only semi-warm — and Hot Chocolate especially should be served hot.
The employee at the counter also never asked whether the drinks were “for here” or “to go,” so she automatically prepared them in to-go cups. My wife and her friend were staying, so she politely asked if they could be switched to “for here” cups. When the drinks were transferred, the 16-oz drink ended up looking like only half a cup, and still not hot. My wife asked if it could be warmed up, and even then, it was barely warmed.
Her friend ask to for her cold Hot Chocolate ant it was similar experience, it was semi warmed. Even though all these drinks in my opinion were suppose to be remade.
Overall, it was a very unpleasant experience — especially compared to the consistently good service we’re used to here. I truly hope the owners or management see this, because the shop itself is wonderful, but the customer service on this visit was far below expectations. I would love to continue bringing friends here, but experiences like this make it difficult to recommend unless the service improves.

Delicious food. I loved the Zing Bowl! I appreciate all restaurants that have vegetarian and vegan options that are real food. I left feeling full and happy! The seasonal coffee flight was impressive and tasty. My husband discovered that he like Matcha for the first time with the Banana nut matcha:). We will definately be back for the Fall Flight! Staff was kind and personable. I only gave service a 4 star because I think they would benefit from one more server. One girl was running the front with one cook. They were an amazing team, but it took awhole for use to get service at the bar top. They were packed on a Monday morning and I can definately see why. Great place!

I love this coffee shop & the vibe. I always get the zing bowl with carne. I was a little disappointed for the portion size I got today. Almost $20 and I barely got any meat or lettuce, it was just very small all together.
Love this place! Great coffee, delicious breakfast and a fun atmosphere. Perfect for meetings!

This is a nice chill cafe! I came across them because I heard they had Gluten Free Donuts (Dude's Donuts). I can gladly confirm this is correct! I ordered a half dozen to take home. Unfortunately, their menu doesn't show that they sell them or on Uber Eats so, no 5 stars for that. I informed the cashier and emailed them so, hopefully I can change this to 5 stars if they update the menu and/or Uber Eats so I can order these for delivery!

Wake up tacos are so yummy. So are the macchiato and monster cookie! 😋
Electric is always our go-to for yummy food, great food, coffee and margaritas. Always love a woman owned business. Emily was hands down the kindest human today and she truly works with her heart. You never know the impact you have on someone and it can only take a few moments to make someone’s day. Thank you for making mine.

$7.30 for a vanilla latte is wild. The coffee is good, but not that good.

Picture it: a hot summer day in Sumner. We've eaten, shopped, and browsed the downtown, and before we journey to our next destination, we decide to purchase an iced beverage. Both cafes we've seen downtown are closed, we are sad, then on the edge of downtown we see it: Electric!
In all seriousness, the gals were VERY kind. My bestie ordered a nitro and she'd never had it; it did not agree with her. They did not bat an eye to make it right for her! We walked out with an iced white mocha and a raspberry iced tea lemonade pictured), and they are BOTH delicious. We are permanent fans!
Only complaint: their largest is a 16oz 😭 what can I say, I have a problem. ☕️
(No rating on food as we didn't eat there)

I have been here two Fridays in a row and have enjoyed the atmosphere and tasty coffee.
Welcoming, clean environment. I love the corner at the back, nice area to read or do Bible study as I come to do. Music was a little louder than last Friday.
