I decided to give black rock Albany another chance as I was passing through and really needed a pick me up. I also hate the idea allowing 1 employee to dictate how a business is represented. This experience was the total opposite. All the baristas were awesome. Happy, light conversation, no issue with making my drink as desired and the coffee was really good (shaken espresso). I hope the ambience and staff stay as amazing as they were today! read more

Coffee: 5/5 Food: 2/5 Service: 5/5 This coffee is so rich and creamy! I got the shaken espresso with oat milk, sugar free white chocolate and vanilla, and cold foam. My partner got the sugar free caramel blondie with vanilla cold foam and caramel drizzle. Very delicious and flavorful if you enjoy strong coffee flavors. I will say that it's definitely not a food location. We got the bagel dog, chorizo bagel, and bacon breakfast burrito. It's alright, my partner and I compared it to school food lol. The service was great! The employees definitely like to spark up a conversation while working on your order. It's a small drive through coffee stop with no indoor common area. We're on a long road trip so worked for us, but if needed there is a simple parking atmosphere. read more

If you're a coffee lover, Black Rock Coffee is a dream come true! Their Americano is out of this world--rich, bold, and with an intensely satisfying heavy flavor that's hard to find these days. Honestly, it's the best coffee I've tasted in a long time. I'd rate it 100/100 without hesitation. The aroma alone is enough to pull you in, and the taste? Absolutely addictive. To top it off, the staff are super sweet and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. The value for money here is unbeatable. You're getting premium-quality coffee that feels like a treat every single time. This place has completely stolen my heart, and it's officially one of my top coffee spots in Oregon. I can't wait to keep coming back--this is my go-to coffee fix now! read more

Inside a "sausage" breakfast burrito. So hot, I should have used a coffee drink sleeve. Mostly tortilla, spicy mush, had to look inside to warn the others...not good at all. read more

Long lines to finally get your order which to me means they are doing something right.We got the Oreo blended cold coffee, the frozen fuel and my typical latte with 4 shots. Our coffee gal was super friendly and helpful. Great location. read more

Probably one of the best spots I've been to in Oregon. It was worth the (almost) 30 minute drive in the morning before taking my friend to work. read more

We ordered two sausage burritos to be ready at 12:00 pm. When we arrived it was ready to go. However, when I checked the bag several miles later I found two frozen burritos!!! No contact number to store. The general line states to return it to the store but it's in the next town from us. Will never go here again. read more

Like usual can't pull a consistent shot to save their lives. Lines always backed up when I go back behind subway cause they love to let a guy in the Rice Heating van talk for 10 minutes and make everyone else backed up and late. Also the food has gone to horrible quality as you can see with other reviews don't waste your time, I'll stick with Dutch. read more

My go to spot on the way To/From Corvallis (off highway 5). The drive-thru line was 8-10 cars long. They have a walk-up window; no wait :D A quality coffee beverage that doesn't hide behind syrups and creams, but they have all that available if you that's what you want *thumbs up* They have I sweetened almond milk and other milk alternatives for +90¢ read more

I miss Black Rock Coffee! But anytime I'm in the area I most definitely slide thru. Their coffee is really good, and the service is friendly & efficient. I LOVE the following drinks; Iced Caramel Blondie, Iced I.V., Coconut Irish Cream Latte, Passion Fruit Strawberry Iced Green Tea with Dragon Fruit and Iced Fuel. read more

Grabbed an excellent cookie cold brew on the way out of Corvallis! Nice twist to a regular cold brew. The girl was also super nice and knew how to make nice conversation without being awkward (which is the vibe I usually get from Dutch, sns.). read more

Highly recommend stopping here for a coffee, barista was friendly and the coffee was nice and strong!

LOVE this place! I've probably been here 50 times by now this year. All of the staff are upbeat and have a great sense of humor. One of them even told me about an adjustment he could make with my favorite drink that I believe he invented & it was even yummier! (It's called a Snickers). They're also super happy when I bring in my dog for a pup cup. I'm bad with names but I definitely know the manager Destiny because she's my favorite. Thank you everyone! read more

We drove through right at close, and the barista (who was working alone) served us anyways and made our drinks swiftly and SO, SO WELL. I ordered a Mexican chai which is simply not on their menu and I can say nothing more than the fact that he absolutely killed it. 11/10 get this guy a raise read more

Love the customer service! I love interacting with the staff, they're always friendly, polite, and on their "A" game! The coffee is fabulous! read more

The best coffee in the Northwest. Too bad they're not in California yet. We used to like Starbucks and then we got exposed to Black rock...

It is pretty convenient stopping in here off of Interstate 5 especially when I need a pick me up for my drives. Some times I forget to grab something on my way out of town, or I need something on my way home. I have been traveling up North towards Portland lately from Eugene, so this is the perfect stop. I am not much of a coffee fan so I get flavored energy drinks. I don't drink them very often, but I will on a long drive. The flavors they have here are really great, and the service is always with a warm, and friendly personality. Not overbearing like at some other places. Now that the holidays are here I might get the peppermint mocha since I will drink those. I'm sure those are pretty good here. read more

This is a convenient location for anyone driving on the 5, and when heading to Corvallis. We always stop by on our way to OSU. Same great drinks and friendly service as other locations. read more

I've been to the Oceanside Ca. location and now here... What I can say it's consistent. The coffee is great and fresh and the people that work there are always nice to talk to.. I've a big supporter of the little coffee bars.. This one is the few existing good local brew.. read more

Black Rock Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Albany, Oregon

I LOVE my black rock but unfortunately this location has one of the rudest employees. I always stop here when traveling south on I-5 and seem to always get this one employee. I'll be sure to catch her name next time and maybe warn the manager but, jees... She was awful. Makes me want to wait for a Dutch bros read more

Had my third bad experience with this location and don't plan to return. I had a little over 1.5 in punch cards from before their digital rewards system was installed. I rarely go to black rock for coffee. I went there the day before today and purchased a blended white mocha. Handing them a punch card to add to my account. Last time through I had purchased a drink and provided them a punch card with 6 punches. I asked if I now had a full drink on my next visit and the girl apologized saying only had 8 punches. After an explanation they changed the account and corrected my points. On returning the next day. To redeem those points the girl working the counter in forms me I owe them the price of the drink. When I corrected with what had transpired yesterday. She goes to tell me I owe her the cost regardless because the system doesn't reflect our discussion. I mention the this was frustrating and this was the second day in a row where this is an issue. I also mentioned this makes me never want to come back to the black rock Coffee, a place I don't visit much anyways. She gives me the drink and apologizes in an i don't believe and get out of my hair attitude. Then goes on to tell me the system screws up all the time and this is a daily problem. So I asked my self while driving away if it's consistently a problem and I was telling her it's wrong why was she fighting me and not believing me. Regardless, I got hot mocha trying a different drink and realized the coffee used by black rock has a distinct organic cat piss type ora and one I'm not that fond of. And not the flavors I remember from when I used to get coffee here more regularly. I give the a 1 star for their inhospitable employees mostly but also mixing that with this location doesn't fit the brand experience I have had else where with Black Rock. read more

Very nice people working when we visited. Their menu is pretty unusual compared to the average Oregon coffee hut, but I'm into it. My cold brew was tasty and the coffee did what I needed it to do on my drive back home! read more

Fast and easy exit from I5 freeway! Taste soo yummy too! You can't go wrong with a hot coffee from here . read more

Black Rock Coffee - Best strawberry smoothie and chocolate truffle coffee ! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Albany, Oregon

Good Coffee. I recently tried the new energy drink they released. It's super good. Would strongly recommend the strawberry/almond or raspberry/almond. Drip coffee is good as well. read more

I have been to this place a few times now and have not had the best experience. One time I heard the girls in there talking about how there were mice and poop everywhere. Ew. However I figured something was being done about this issue. I decided to give it another try and they still were talking about how unsanitary things were and I figured I should post something on here. While on here I started reading other reviews and saw one very recently about a girl who I believe I have seen the same types of issues with while I have visited... as far as I saw, the way she talked to her co-workers was very belittling and demeaning. My teenage daughter showed me the girls on the Black Rock Hwy 34 Instagram page and I believe her to be the one named Autumn. I didn't care much before I saw the other review, but since I did see it I thought I should share I saw the same behavior. read more

Service was rude and horrible. The previous cuStomer was smiling and the barista was hanging out the window talking and smiling also. I get there and there's no eye contact. She seemed irritated even taking my order.I asked for a blended drink and they gave it to me iced and I swear the girl with black hair even rolled her eyes. I'd rather drive to salem for my black rock, or go down the road to Dutch or human bean. I'm glad there's now a Bentley's in town also. This was the second time I've been here and had hostile service. Any day with a coffee is a better day, but this left me regretting my choice. The coffee isn't worth the drive. read more

Only place open on my way from Lebanon to Eugene Saturday early early morning. Menu seems kind of small, but it does the job . I bought one of their re usable tumblers, and it keeps my stuff hot for hours and hours. Service is always fast/good. read more

We try to tell ourselves that we are not coffee snobs, but we probably are. We love Black Rock Coffee. Aside of using our French press at home, on the road, Black Rock is some of the best coffee you can get to go. I call it honest coffee. Starbucks burns every roast, and has falsified their claims to "fair trade" coffee, and they have become severely over commercialized. In my opinion, Dutch Brothers is just sugared milk with coffee extract. I feel that some of these coffee chains are surviving off of brand name, sugar content, and trendy hype. Portland has a amazing selection of roasted coffee bean suppliers. We are definitely a coffee city. A simple, honest cup of perfectly roasted coffee always comes out of Black Rock. I hope that they hold on to their standards. As a large chain, they are just about the best in our city. Black Rock is a wonderful staple, and a great representation of coffee for us. I have yet to taste burnt beans from them. No matter which location we stop at, we always get awesome service. read more

The coffee was good but the prices are pretty high. I was a little surprised since they are in the middle of nowhere :)

Great little coffee drive-thru right off of I-5. Came through a couple times recently while traveling and I was pleasantly surprised at the menu options, prices & speed of service. (Despite indecisive children in the car). On an early morning pass I was hoping to make it through without waking my sleeping passengers and sure enough they took my order, my money, then handed me my drink within what seemed like 30 seconds. And yes it was an espresso drink. I'll def keep this place in my bookmarks of "good stops off I-5" read more

Good coffee and decent price, a mix between Starbucks and Dutch bros; the happy medium. They get to know you by name and are genuine. The drinks are flavorful and fresh. The turn can sneak up on you on the hwy but worth the stop. THIS LOCATION IS 24 HRS read more

Have been here 2-3 more visits and each time is the same experience -- great Oreo Chiller and always friendly service

I used to crave the coffee here but the last few months I've noticed the coffee tasting straight burnt, even worse than Dutch Bros. The girls working there are also loosing their charm as some of them are not personable or just flat rude. Case in point from last week. Me - "Hi! I've got a free card, I usually get a coffee with cream, anything you'd suggest that I could try?" thousand yard stare girl - "Um, well most of the stuff we have is pretty sugary. Of you just get coffee you'd probably not like most of the other stuff. I don't know." ....Continue thousand yard stare. Me - "Okay, I'll just have a latte, can you add cream to it, they've been a little burnt lately." Girl, now with a snarled look on her face, "Cream?" Me "Yes please." read more

I came here to get drinks. The lady was super impatient. I understand she was busy. She kept sighing and actually walked away at one point. She rolled her eyes and all. Definitely won't be coming back here. read more

Bought an americano. Very good tasting roast. I love a good roast that doesn't taste burnt.

Totes awesome coffee. A cornerstone of the Albany Oregon coffee scene. Definitely worth a stop.

Let me start by saying the coffee was good. Now the bad. I purchased a coffee drink for $4 and a dollar tip. When I receive my coffee I asked them to throw away my cup from the previous coffee shop. The girl at the window help both hands up like it was poisonous and said we can't take anything through the window. They sure didn't have a problem taking my money through the window. I haven't had that problem anywhere else and I won't be back to Black Rock again. read more

If you want MIDDLE OF THE MALL coffee, make a stop at the black rock coffee... maybe don't stop there actually... you may have more luck at a McDonald's. Although speedy service, their coffee disappoints. Their coffee is very blehhhh. Nothing special. Nuff said. If I could rate this coffee zero stars I would. I would even take Starbucks over this coffee. read more

Nothing hurts more than hearing the pitcher of screaming milk lazily dunked with the steam wand and slapped up under the machine. No foam, hot burning molten lava with my over extracted 4oz shot of espresso. I'll taste the quality in an hour when the temperature cools to 170. I had high hopes for this chain to uphold their passion of good quality. But I'm simply afraid to take the first sip since I can hardly touch the paper cup. read more

Coffee was fantastic!! However the customer service was absolutely horrible!!! And I am not one to usually complain about things, the girl who took our order was incredibly rude and made me feel like it was such an inconvenience for her that I was there ordering coffee, and asking her about the menu... I would understand completely if it was busy, but we were the only people in line. As we were just about to get our coffee someone came in line behind us, and when I was handed my drink there was no "here you go" or "have a nice day" she didn't even look at me, she just looked at the person behind me and asked in a very annoyed voice "what are you getting?" I just stood there for a second and then said "thank you" and she just glared at me... Customer service is a huge make or break for me so I doubt I will be returning to a black rock unless it is my only option.. Not when there are plenty of coffee shops out there who understand the importance of customer service!! Sorry black rock read more
