Came through the drive thru today and had the WORST experience I've ever had at a Starbucks. Had a…read morepretty simple order: refresher, green tea, venti iced americano, and two pup cups. The order comes and it's a refresher, matcha, and a grande hot americano. We brought this up and the worker immediately placed the blame on us??? They remade the two incorrect drinks and then some girl comes up and said "yeah, a green tea is a matcha" which is incorrect and unprofessional. Then when I asked for our pup cups, a third person comes up the window, basically shoves ONE pup cup in our hand and slams the window shut. All this because they can't manage a simple order and get it right the first time. I am flabbergasted, appalled, and embarrassed that they chose to act this way. Starbucks should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this behavior. Order time: 11:21 6/15/26

We were on our way to the airport after visiting a weeks in Forks & were looking for a decent place for breakfast. Rusty popped up on Google, it was right off the interstate so we popped in.

Our water pump went out and we knew it was going to be hard to find a mechanic on a Friday night let alone a Saturday! Thankfully we had it towed to slates corner with in 5 minutes from calling a local towing businesses. Thankfully he could fix it! First thing Saturday morning he got the new water pump and began the repair. The kids and I sat in the store chatting with the owner Darletta and her daughter Lilly. They are amazing people, made my little family feel completely welcomed. Our car was fixed by noon and we were ready to head back on our first family vacation ! The cost of the repair was extremely cheaper then what we are used to. I could not believe the amazingly fast and friendly service we received!

Best coffee stand in town... hands down! Coffee Coops' friendly, courteous, and knowledgeable staff along with Lisa's homemade goodies, or one of their breakfast burritos paired with a delicious coffee will be enough to keep you coming back! The staff are always coming up with new drinks, so plenty to choose from. In my case, they see me coming and usually have my iced, sugar free, white chocolate Americano ready when I drive up :) I have yet to find another coffee stand that even compares when we travel. read more

One of the things I liked most about living In Elma was getting coffee here. The girls were always great to my family and I. The remembered my 6yr old and if you know anything about kids you know how much that means to a little one. And beyond the superb customer service their coffee was easily the best in town and in all of Grays Harbor in my opinion. I look forward to my monthly Dr appointment there every month just to get coffee at the Coop haha read more

What a cute little place to get coffee. The baristas are so kind and friendly. The coffee is delicious. There are many great milk alternatives! These girls know how to pull great shots. This coffee was the best we had on our week long vacation....we stopped on the way down and the way back. I love to support local coffee companies over large corporate entities who come in to small towns to try to put out the local businesses. SUPPORT LOCAL! read more

This is the best coffee shop! The baristas are all friendly and the owner can often be seen working right along side her employees. This little business gives back often to the community and local schools as well.

I asked for my drink and turned around like I couldn't hear her and started making fun of it. She proceeded to say that it wouldn't even taste like how I wanted, I watched her proceed to make it like a Carmel frappe instead of a Carmel macchiato blended (which I got confirmed by another barista is a thing and in my opinion they taste completely different). I hate being confrontational and so instead of my normal 3 dollar tip for a small order I gave her a dollar and drove off. Normally love the staff, I normally love the drinks. But if she's at the window, I will drive away. I don't like that kind of confrontation, but you can't be rude about a customers order all of the time (I do agree if it's blatantly stupid like Latte with no milk or some shit), but funny enough I do know my drinks. It was specifically requested for a reason, this is the first time a barista questioned that order here. So maybe have management talk to her about this? I don't want her fired, but I think some additional training would be nice.
