Drip Cafe

I have been to the Drip about a dozen times since moving to the area almost 2 years ago. I have always sat at the counter, and I have always ordered the same things: a 12 ounce mug of house coffee with cream and a breakfast burrito. While the staff is friendly and generally busy, I have found the service to be spotty. For instance, after ordering my coffee and burrito, the coffee and small pitcher of cream are delivered with dispatch. Yet, half the time I haven’t been handed the napkin and flatware. What am I supposed to stir my coffee with after adding the cream? Training of the staff should make the delivery of the flatware automatic after the order. Also, about half the time I am cheerfully asked if I want a refill on my coffee (I have never had a full refill because I’ve never finished my coffee at the times I have been asked.) or a “top-off”. I appreciate the top off, but, as I said, it has been offered only half the time. I wish this was a standard operating procedure—at least for house coffee at the counter. However, the prices are reasonable so, regardless of how great or average the service has been, I always leave 18-20% tip in cash.

Excellent hand-pulled espresso and a great brunch menu. Cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. Will definitely stop in again when in the area.

Best lattes in town. Better than brew Haha. And much better than Starbucks. Solid breakfast and lunch menus. Tasty good. Scones are not traditional and the texture and look are a little off. Won't get another scone, will get another latte, molasses cookie, breakfast bake, and breakfast burrito, just not in one sitting.

Great food and the best latte around. Service is OK, but the breakfast burrito (order it with a side of pork sausage) is out of this world. House coffee is good too, but nowhere near as good as the specialty coffees...
