Coffee Shops near Ellsworth

“The baristas are always personable and can translate what I say I want into an actual drink. Like when I say “I want blended caramel latte with an extra shot of espresso”

Parking: The caribou is located in a grocery store so plenty of parking. Plus, there’s a drive through.“

“McDonalds is always the same here and everywhere. I always am reminded of a song we sang as children. "McDonalds is my kind of place. They serve you rattlesnakes and don't forget those frosted shakes - French fried polluted lakes. "“

“The coffee, the staff, the artwork and vibes!!! Just a couple good reasons to check it out! It has a unique and friendly atmosphere and I really want to try the soup in the cooler months!! I love that they showcase local artists work in the cafe. The handmade keychains they have for sale are SUPER CUTE!! (great for gifting and collecting) Extraordinary place. Go see for yourself ✌️😁♥️“

**Overview & Atmosphere**
This Caribou Coffee, tucked inside Family Fresh to the left, is probably one of the best small locations out there, even without a drive-thru. It boasts plenty of seating, including two comfy chairs next to a cozy fireplace, making it a great spot to relax or catch up on work. The atmosphere is inviting, and with an entire grocery store at your disposal, plus amenities like public bathrooms, a drinking fountain, an Easy Tab machine, a Redbox, and a Coinstar, it’s a convenient stop for more than just coffee.

**Ordering Experience**
Ordering here is straightforward and easy. However, the pickup area could use clearer signage, as it’s not always obvious where to get your order. Occasionally, there’s some clutter around the pickup spot, which could be improved, but it’s a minor issue in an otherwise smooth experience.

**Menu Highlights**
The menu offers all the classics, from mochas to matcha, but my personal favorite is the chicken sausage sandwich paired with a large white chocolate mocha with an extra shot of espresso—definitely the best items on the menu. Their matcha is also fantastic, offering a great alternative if you’re not in the mood for coffee.

**Bubble Tea Warning**
One downside, though, is their bubble tea. Unfortunately, they serve it with square bubbles, which just don’t hit the mark. The texture and taste are off, so I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re a bubble tea fan. This is something across all Caribou locations, not just this one, and it does affect the overall food experience slightly. Get round bubbles, Caribou!

Parking: Over 60 parking spots

Kid-friendliness: It's a good place for kids cuz it's got a nice place next to the fireplace they could sit while you have your coffee, and the ample seating provides for. I don't think they have high chairs, but they're still ample seating.

Wheelchair accessibility: Everything's low to the ground. There's a ramp and inside there are no stairs.“

“Everytime I've been there somehow they manage to screw up my order. I've even gone back in. I guess I didn't realize it was that difficult to take an order for a dozen donuts. Wait here the catch, it was 4 or 3 kinds. Maybe that was the hard part. Do better.“
