Anthem Coffee & Tea | Point Ruston

Ive been to Anthem before while working in the Ruston area. Today, I brought my wife in while running errands. Sadly, our experience was lacking. Mainly it is the quality I'm writing about. When you spend over $35 for 2 drinks and sandwiche type food, you're hoping for some tasty treats. I had the breakfast burrito. It looked good, but honestly, I did not taste the eggs or sausage. The whole wrap was almost vacant of taste. My latte, had little to no coffee taste at all. Perhaps it was just steamed 1% milk? My wife had a strawberry smoothie with peanut butter & protein powder. That drink was primarily peanut butter and oddly, it wasn't very could. Smoothies usually are like milkshakes or fraps...this one was as cold as tepid water. My wife's sandwich was cream cheese on a bagel. That wasn't bad, but hard to mess that up. Im sorry to write this - we sat long enough to eat the food, as we were pretty hungry, but ended up leaving to the next errand, where we tossed the drinks. I tried my wife's smoothie before tossing, to verify her thoughts and agreed. Ill never go back, especially at those prices. For those who work there, I recommend eating and drinking what you're selling to see if you'd buy that item.

The coffee is solid. The sitting space is pretty bland and slightly dirty. The food is good!

Great plus to grab a coffee and snack. The staff here is friendly and quick. There's a good selection of drinks besides coffee too. You can get a shake or smoothie as well as energy drinks here as well. The cookies and pastries here are good quality.

The atmosphere here is good and the location is perfect for getting something to go walking around Point Ruston and the Ruston Way with.

I'm here every Sunday morning for the Tacoma Run Club who uses this location as their starting point.

I love this coffee shop. Ever since they put a drink on ther menu like 5 months ago called the Forklift, the staff no matter who's working always finds the recipe for me. I appreciate the effort to re creat a drink that was seasonal. The staff is always friendly and also quick. Thank you anthem for being a amazing company and being apart of the tacoma and ruston community:)

Great people (service) but terrible tasting coffee and food selection. Prices seem about 30% higher than other coffee shops.

Anthem is a Public Square patron...a place for anti-woke businesses to flag themselves so people who are into pro-life/ racism/ homophobia can find each other. If you're LGBTQ, or a minority... they don't care about you, spend your money elsewhere.

Had the best chai drink of my entire life. Called the cupid and was an employees pick. Blended half spicy half sweet chai with strawberry cold foam. Staff was lovely as well.

I like anthem coffee. Sometimes it can be busy in the summer but it's usually no line. They have good coffee and very nice customer service. It's conveniently located rust in point. Make sure that you get your parking validated so you don't have to pay the part or get a ticket.

A nice coffee shop outside the big chain empires in Point Ruston. Bagels, Alvacado Toast and Bakery Items are all solid from my perspective. Very close to the waterfront trail and other Point Ruston services.
