Service feels slow and strangely disengaged, as though customers are interrupting the ambiance simply by ordering. What should feel warm and welcoming instead comes across as performative and inattentive. The food is especially disappointing considering the prices. The sandwiches are remarkably small and underfilled, leaving you wondering whether you accidentally ordered a half portion. The salads are even worse, which is essentially a pile of arugula. For a downtown business surrounded by residents and neighboring businesses, the lack of inclusion for the community and the repeated disregard for basic city noise expectations is difficult to ignore. Ultimately, Flint has several coffee shops that provide better food, better service, and a far more genuine sense of love for the community here.

The staff were very friendly, per usual, and helped me right away. To drink, I ordered the Iced Horchata Oatmilk Shaken Espresso. To eat, I ordered the Bacon, Gouda & Egg Sandwich and the Chocolate Croissant. I love horchata so I enjoyed this drink--it was creamy, refreshing and sweet but not too sweet. The sandwich was good too--cheesy with a fair portion of bacon per bite. I'm not a huge chocolate pastry fan but I decided to be adventurous and try the chocolate croissant and was pleasantly surprised. I thought it would be overwhelmingly chocolatey but it was good! I sat at one of the tables and was able to study for a few hours. The chair was fairly comfortable and the music wasn't too loud or annoying (although I did use my noise cancelling headphones). All in all, I would go back!

It wasn't really crowded but there was a long line in the drive thru. Inside they do have plenty of tumblers as well as other accessories. I placed two mobile orders on my way and then went to the restroom. When I came out of the restroom I placed an order with the barista for a coffee cake. It was ready right away but my mobile order still wasn't ready. At first, I thought I sent it to the wrong Starbucks because I've done that before. After, inquiring about my order they finally started to make it. The reason why I'm giving it three stars (which I rarely do because I love starbucks) is because the hospitality and the vibe was just off. They did not greet me like most Starbucks do. When I picked up my ice espresso it was a vente but only halfway full. I did ask for them to fill it up to the top with whatever was free. I was given ice and said thank you but there was no reply from the barista nor when I asked for a straw and said thanks. I am multicultural and didn't know what was up. There were no other minorities working there and I hate to play the race card and in fact I never do. Perhaps, they were all having a bad day. Any who, I don't plan on ever coming back to the Starbucks.

My love affair with whole bean coffee continues unabated…read more I stumbled across this locally-based coffee roaster by happenstance. As luck would have it, I was hanging out at a local cafe and the owner had just gotten a new brand of whole bean coffee in- that from the Flint Coffee Company. Curious, I asked him what it was like and he seemed pretty enthusiastic about it. He said it was a new line that he was introducing for retail, likening to the rich Sumatra Starbucks blend, but with a twist. Well, I love the earthiness of Starbucks Sumatra, so my interest was piqued. What was the twist? What was that extra something that supposedly made it worth it? Apparently, it's organically-grown under special shade trees or something. These coffee beans are marketed as "direct trade, shade grown with no pesticides involved." Whatever it is, it does the trick. At any rate, I know I liked it a whole lot. Flint Coffee Company bills itself as a family owned business interested in producing sustainable coffee beans from their family-run farm (the family apparently owns a coffee plantation in Peru and owns the local company where it's roasted here in Flint). The beans are hand-harvested, washed and then dried in the sun on a drying bed. Later, the beans are depulped, with any pulp remnants used as a fertilizer for the soil while the beans ferment overnight and are rewashed. I guess it's more of a natural way to process coffee beans. All I know is that I was impressed with the smoothness of such a rich coffee flavor. There was very little to no acidity in it and no strange aftertaste that is the hallmark of cheap can coffee. In other words, if you like Folgers or Maxwell House, this probably isn't the coffee for you. However, I like my coffee rich and earthy, so it was a hit with me. It tasted just as good in its last drop as it did from the first sip from my coffee cup. They have a few different blends, from milder beans to the darker, more intense variety that I prefer. I picked up a 12 oz bag for $11. That wasn't a bad price. It wasn't the cheapest (it's true that I could have probably gotten a whole lot of average canned coffee at the grocery store for the same price or less), but for me, it's about quality, not quantity when it comes to coffee. I really can't stand that acidic aftertaste of cheap coffee, so I was down with the price.
