So good. Im very picky about stands but this one was amazing! The girls were so sweet inside and took the time to explain everything about their drinks. Coffee is phenomenal

The brown sugar latte and breakfast burrito are SO GOOD! The baristas are happy to make adjustments so you can get exactly what you want.
Two things to note: there are 2 locations on Center Street, so if you’re ordering online make sure you choose the right one. And they don’t have any drip coffee options, so if drip is your vibe, this might not be your spot.
Overall, definitely a win.

Wide Awake is my usual go-to for a morning coffee fix. Their selection of food is perfect for a quick bite for breakfast or lunch, and the selection of drink customizations will never leave you out of options.

I've never been here before until today to try something new after a long morning. Coffee was good, but there were so many coffee grounds in my latte it was hard to finish. I still drank it, but I don't think many people like grounds left in their coffee like that. A few will happen, but like they poured an entire table spoon throughout the coffee, it is a bit ridiculous.
They make great coffee and sandwiches are bomb. I use the Joe app to order ahead and it's ready when I get there, nice to skip the line and go.

Coffee is strong and tasty. Kind staff. Creamy cold foam. Outstanding first time
Nice baristas, GREAT drink. Got the 16 oz Brown Sugar Latte and already plan on going back for seconds. Of course, Bailey gave approval as well.
I really appreciate how kind and down to earth the staff are at this coffee stand. The dirty spiced chai is my favorite chai in all of Tacoma. The line can sometimes take 10min depending on the time I go- so bring a lil patience- it’s worth it!

Yummy coffee and Brown Sugar Bacon Breakfast sandwich was delicious and fresh. The gal at the window was so sweet and the view/walk was so peaceful. Highly recommend a life pause for this cute shop.
Aisha (so sorry if I misspelled that) did an outstanding job! My husband is a huge fan of Lotus drinks & she served one of the best ones he’d ever had! I got the grilled cheese & he got the bacon ciabatta. Definitely exceeded my expectations!
My absolute fave drive thru! They are great at creating!
I’m honestly kind of picky, they are always so sweet here, and just welcoming. The coffee is the best and the syrups they use are so yummy. A Tacoma favorite for a multitude of reasons. One of the ladies on the weekend always remembers my order and that is just so thoughtful!! Thank you!
If I could give past zero I would.
Before I could even roll my window down to say I was there for a pick up and I wanted to order for myself try it for my first time
Thank god I didn’t spend a penny at this place!
The woman was frustrated how busy it was and very rudely before I rolled my window down “ YOU NEED TO GO INSIDE, WE DONT DO THAT “
Mind you I didn’t even get the chance to say anything back.
I’m all for supporting small businesses but don’t come here
Put your money elsewhere to a KIND & HUMBLE place!
