If you need a quick bite to eat and some amazing coffee this place is quite good! They have some fairly decent microwave burritos and fresh pastries, but the coffee is phenomenal. The service was quick and professional, and the ambience is basically a cute stucco coffee hut. My only notes would be to engage a bit more in conversation instead of just trying to get me out the door as quick as possible. read more

I paid $10 for a cup of ice. I finished my 20 oz drink in 2 minutes. Taste was great, service was fast and friendly, but the price makes me not want to return. read more

Cafe Au Lait - So much ice! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Olympia, Washington

Cafe au Lait is so nice and convenient as its nearby my work! i went for first time last week and got a fall drink, it was super tasty and worth the price for size i got! This week i got another drink and wasn't sure on which brand to do and they were so nice to give a recommendation, As well can ask for light ice, sweetener etc and it makes it well worth the $- the Baristas always say hi when you come up to the window and give recommendations if you're unsure! :,) read more

Things to consider....first there are no prices posted on their menu, and it just feels awkward to ask how much a coffee costs...I have really liked their coffee but sadly I will not be going back. I ordered a 16 oz egg nog latte and 2 tiny cookies and it cost me a shocking $11.00. That is just never going to happen to me again. read more

Cute little coffee shop by Target. I got a blended white pumpkin and Fall pie chai and paid 17.29 for two drinks. We drove off and my husband found a hair in his drink . Luckily we weren't far so we came back they kindly made us a new drink and gave him a free drink token for next time. I feel like drinks tastes alright, I feel like I have had better coffee. Staff were super nice and friendly. read more

I needed a coffee for my drive to Seatac. I couldn't see the menu to to it being night time but it wasn't an issue! The woman working asked me to describe what I wanted and made it absolutely perfect!! She was so sweet with amazing service!! I wish I remembered her name: pretty brunette working closing shift on a Thursday. I will come back to that shop next time I'm in Olympia!! read more

Drive-through fast friendly service cookies was so delicious. All I have is a picture of the empty bag ambience normal, but still different from Hawaii.good for quick snack and drink read more

Saturday morning, about to set out on a long drive up to Mount Saint Helens. Needing my morning coffee and everything I found in the are was Starbucks. Not what I was hoping for. Passed the target and cruised through the parking lot to find this little gem back there. Staff was friendly and she was able to make me a drink. But, the coffee was not good. I'm not sure where they get their grounds but the flavor was burnt and unappetizing. read more

I got the cup of heaven blended and it was sooo delicious. The owner and the baristas are very sweet and I really enjoyed my experience here. read more

I think the batista are concerned more about talking to friends than serving coffee. First in line behind a car where the girl was outside her car constantly chatting with the worker without amy drink served. Waited 10 minutes and was out of there. Rude and unprofessional, especially at their prices. Will never return. read more

Four stars for now. My first visit and I'll need to come back to potentially up that. Very friendly barristas. And they make a mean mocha!! This may be the only drive up coffee stand in West Olympia so please support it! read more

If I could give no stars I would! To start off, the barista doesn't wear her mask barely at all, I'm immune compromised so that matters to me. I Ordered my coffee around 6:45 (24oz hot vanilla/hazelnut latte with almond milk). When I got to work and tried my drink.. it was sour SOUR. I thought for sure it was dairy milk, which.. I'm allergic to but I had my boyfriend drink it and he has been puking and nauseous all day.. so I was literally served rancid almond milk and forced to pay for it and expected to drink it??? Tried calling this location many times and even reached out on Facebook for them to read it and not reply. Horrible service and horrible coffee. I won't be returning, I'd rather go to Starbucks! read more

Love this place, always come when I'm in the area. Coffee is sweet but not too sweet but also strong. 10/10 would recommend!!! I usually just stick to the basics of layered ice caramel macchiato . read more

We stopped in here when my sister was in town and were greeted by some friendly baristas. This is a small drive through located in the Capital mall parking lot area and is dangerously close to home! Service was very friendly and they were patient as we checked over the menu and asked questions about what flavors of syrups they had available. The iced coffees they made us were wonderful and we enjoyed them so much I had to stop back by there later last week. The coconut and white iced coffee they made was a real treat and I indulged in its delicious flavors. Both times I've been by here they've procured our coffees for us quickly and efficiently. Flavors were on point and the order accurate. Prices are reasonable and we appreciate the friendly service. We will undoubtedly be back for a coffee fix soon. read more

Coffee good. Employee, bad. Witnessed a blonde, long-haired, able-bodied, bespectacled employee verbally assault a disabled woman when confronted about parking in the off-loading area of a disabled parking spot without a handicap plaquard. I heard the blonde employee shout that she was dropping something off at her work but it's been half an hour and she is just working. Shocking behavior to witness. read more

Came here for a quick coffee before work. The 2 girls working were super chipper and very friendly. I ordered a peppermint mocha which is not overly sweet and really good! It was my first time here so I'll definitely have to go back to try some of their other drinks For Halloween today they're giving out a pumpkin cheesecake waffle on a stick which is really tasty! read more

Café Au Lait is the best drive-thru coffee shop! All the girls are joyful and attentive! I love the coffee drinks and energy drinks! Currentt My, I'm drinking sugar-free Blu Lotus with SF pineapple and SF peach! SO good withOut the crash other energy drinks have! I go there 1-2 times each day for a drink and to check in with the ladies! Awesome!!! read more

The dame blonde girl everyone negatively talking about are true. Drove right up to the window, she didnt bother to say "Hello" or "what would you like". Waited for her to say something as I was thinking she was still doing something and gave her the respect to finish it...but she wasnt. No customer service. And on top of this she didnt even give back my bf's debit card which created a cascading effect on out bills being put on hold or charged a late fee. Coffee is alright. Nothing special. read more

This is the best coffee around, the sweetest girls and always consistent amazing espresso drinks!!

I got completely lied to buy the owner because her employee said I received my free drinks the day I came to get them when. I had already purchased 2 drinks because the barista couldn't get ahold of the owner. I love 29 seconds away and spend $120 a week at your stand and until this is resolved I will be writing truthful horrible review that are the truth and warning other customers to find a new star most employees make great coffee but it's not worth getting lied to ans called a liar as well as broken promises. read more

This is my favorite coffee stand in the Olympia area! Great coffee and super friendly customer service. I worked at Nordstrom for twelve years where we strive for the BEST customer service so my standards are pretty high and these girls always meet my expectations! Never a bad tasting coffee or service. Smiles always when you come here. Love it! read more

I have to say that I have had zero negative experiences here. The ladies are always friendly and the drinks are amazing. They know what I want when I pull up, and are always fast to get it. They work hard, move fast and provide amazing customer service. Did I mention the drinks are amazing? My go to stand. read more

I'd say I get a drink here once every couple weeks. I'm a barista and I'm on this side of town a lot, I'm used to drinking a lot of coffee so it's not rare for me to get more than 1 coffee a day. There's only 1 employee I've found here that makes my drink correctly, and me being a barista can tell you my drink is not hard. I feel like no matter what you tell the employee they just do whatever the f*ck they want with your drink! Every lotus I've had is flat, doesn't have enough flavor and really doesn't do the product justice, if I was lotus energy I'd remove my product from their store. Every coffee drink I've gotten is never mixed fully, powder still in the bottom of the cup and the lack of ice in ICED drinks is jaw dropping! Like I said, I'm a barista, full time and a consistent $2 tipper so I'm spending almost $10 at this stand every time but I always drive away unsatisfied and unhappy with my coffee. Always end up dumping it out after I drive away, a few weeks ago was the last time I went and I won't be returning. Another side note, I've heard the worst things in the community about this stand. So many people say horrible things about the owners! And if anyone else has noticed, they go through employees like crazy... wonder why... read more

Just moved to area great coffee and friendly staff been back twice way better choice then Starbucks

I frequent this coffee stand at least a few times a month and have had mostly good experiences. I think they do great unique blended fancy drinks, better than Starbucks. The baked goods I've had have been fresh about half the time, stale the other half. The vast majority of the time the staff are friendly and prompt. read more

Baristas are kind and the coffee smells and tastes so amazing! Haven't tried their treats yet, but super excited to have a local stand to support as I'm new to the area. read more

Every drink I have had, has been great! My favorite is the iced vanilla chai. They have a rewards program as well so make sure to enter your number in each time you purchase a drink. Unfortunately customer service here is a hit or miss depending on what barista is working. Also I find the prices very inconsistent which is a bit odd.... I would personally use cash over card here just to be safe since sometimes they do not give you your receipt to sign which has the option to tip. Overall 3.5 stars (rounded to 4). If they improve on their customer service and be more consistent with their prices I will up the stars. read more

Stopped by for a cup of coffee on Saturday. While Target and Jo Anne Fabrics were both packed full of holiday shoppers, there wasn't a line for a quick espresso at Cafe Au Lait (located somewhere in the middle of the two.) Tasty looking cookies and other baked goods. The coffee was pretty fine and hit the spot for about the average price. They have a punch card that I turned down. Debit cards are fine with them, so fine, in fact, that they charge you a fee to use them. A nice stop if you pass by or are in the midst of some shoppin', but there's no reason to seek this place out. read more

I have not ordered coffee at this location, only red bull italian sodas and their waffles on a stick. The food is good. But it takes too long for a coffee stand. There are too many things cluttering the windows and the Baristas are RUDE. I've only been three times. 2 out of the 3, they got the flavor wrong and did not ask me if I wanted cream or orange juice. It also just tasted like red bull. If that's all I wanted, I would have gone to the gas station down the road. read more

Local coffee shop with lots of breakfast options as well. My fav place to stop on the westside of Oly.

The baristas are always so friendly! Their chai is really good, and the customer service was fantastic.

Karen and Diana are absolute artists when it comes to pulling shots. Top notch drinks here. read more

They were nice. Wrong order on my friends drink. They even came back and asked to clarify then still messed up. and my rasp italian soda tasted extremely watered down strangely and right when i got it not from the ice. read more

The worst coffee. Worse than Starbucks and I hate Starbucks. I've tried this place twice, and both times, the barista let the shots sit for too long before mixing. NASTY and overpriced. I will never return. read more
