And worst of all the coffee is no longer unique, much less good, They have eliminated their coffee roaster that traveled the world and brought back beans of interest for enjoyment. The service was blah. ... a bunch of children standing around clueless. They burnt my milk for my latte and ruined what was already a boring cup of coffee. What a damn shame. This place was once a gem. Now its truly.... forgetable.

But here? Not at all. They actually ask me which drip coffee I'd like, and explain to me the difference between the two options. I like a lighter roast. They asked if I wasn't room for cream, and I got to add sugar and cream myself how I like it. They have a good ambience that reminds me of the dark, warm autumn colors of coffee shops from the early 2000's. It's moody, it's laid back and lively.

Their pour over is delicious, the best coffee I've ever had. The reason it's all so good isn't just the beans; it's the attention to detail. Coffee enthusiasts will recognize their process. They weigh, measure and time everything they do. The time they spend doing it right shows in the end result.

The older woman with glasses started my drinks. I could tell she was very stressed, overwhelmed, and didn't want to be apart of the process. She was telling customers "I'm busy right now" and "I guess I'll be making drinks until we close". I patently waited for my drink and watched her craft. I complimented her many times and told her how much I appreciated her hard work. It made her smile and I felt good that I was able to do that. I bet she is a really nice woman, maybe just having a hard day. But I wanted to pray for her and tell her she was important. I didn't judge her at all. I hope she finds peace.

The service here is great. The barista was friendly, efficient, and really made my day with her upbeat attitude. On my last visit, I ordered a custom latte with raspberry and blackberry flavored syrup, and it was absolutely delicious, perfectly balanced, and exactly what I needed to kickstart my day. If you appreciate great coffee and even better service, give Brewed Awakenings a try. It's a gem of a coffee stand that knows how to keep its customers coming back for more. Highly recommended! ****** Falls Du auf dem Weg zur Arbeit einen Kaffee brauchen, ist Brewed Awakenings der richtige Ort. Praktisch gelegen an Old Seward Hwy und E 56th Ave. Dank der guten Erreichbarkeit kannst Du hier ganz einfach anhalten und Deinen Kaffee holen. Der Service hier ist grossartig.
