It was my first time coming here and it will be my last, what a dissapointment. I do not give bad…read morereviews lightly let me just say that. I drove 45 minutes to get here to try it out. Placed my order online, I am a very anxious person so knowing before hand made it easier for me, so I loved they had that option, when I get there, walked over to the pick up area, and the worker just says "we are out of the cheese sandwich" no greeting, no apology for the inconvenience, nothing else, so I just stood there, and I asked "ok can I substitute it for anything else?" She says I can get 2 breakfast sandwiches to compensate the price, ok I pick my options and wait, at this point everything was ok, I did think the customer service was definitely not there but I dont like judging based on a first time. I get my sandwiches and go to my car, the coffee was pretty good, I am going to be honest, I got the iced coffee with coconut and maccadamia, so since I drove 45 minutes, I decided to placed another order of the same coffee because I had almost finished it, placed the mobile order, and walked in to wait in the tables with the AC, email said my order would be ready in 15 minutes, theres literally no one there, So I wait the 15 minutes and nothing, so I walked to the pick up area so they can see me because at this point I notice theres literally no one in the front, so Im thinking they probably forgot about my order, I go over to the counter, to kind of peek to see of theres anyone I can get their attention, when I notice a coffee just sitting there, I go over to check and it is my order, no one told me it was ready, they saw me sitting there waiting and at no point did anyone say "oh your coffee is actually ready" this is my first time, I dont know their dinamics, usually in any coffee place they call your order or name to let you know its ready, but nothing, so Im just waiting there, I dont know how long the coffee has been there, It was a huge dissapointment. I was actually so excited to try it, I mean I drove 45 minutes to get here, I was very surprised with the type of service at this establishment, the drinks might be ok, but unfortunately this experience would not make me come back here and rather take my business elsewhere. I have never experienced this type of awful customer service anywhere. And this is the reason for my negative review.

I will be back again next week because it's just so good! Its inside a plaza and there is parking up front. Staff were awesome. Super attentive and kind. They gave me time to figure out the menu and even helped me decide. Super sweet just like my drink. Banana bread chai has a banana base creamy bottom, kick of chai and a chocolate foam with cinnamon.

We stopped by around 11:00-11:30 a.m., thinking the morning rush would be over, but the place was still packed. After trying it, I can definitely see why. They had already sold out of all their pastries, which says a lot about how busy they are, but the coffee was amazing. I ordered the iced maple salt latte with oat milk, and it was so good. My son got the bourbon caramel latte, and he loved his too. The shop itself is small, but there is plenty of seating both inside and outside. What impressed me most was that there were only two employees working, and they handled the crowd incredibly well. They kept things moving, acknowledged customers as they came in and when it was their turn to order, and were still kind and friendly. The café was also very clean and well kept. For there to be only two people working and the crowd they had at 11 o'clock, I'm sure it had probably been busy all morning. Even so, everything was clean and organized. Great coffee, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. We will definitely be back.

Also, I would say this place probably has the best cafe matcha in the High Desert. Compared to everywhere else, the matcha flavor is strong and smooth, but it does taste homemade.

The first time, we drove up and took our drinks to a nearby park for my toddler to get the wiggles out, and the second time we came in to order and use the bathroom - heads up, they do not have a changing table. The iced horchata espresso was a good choice, if sweeter than I usually like my drinks. I appreciate that they have a giant XL size for about $7. Second visit, my drink was an iced chocolate cold brew with mint foam, a March special. This one was awful, with chocolate puddled at the bottom instead of mixed in. The foam was okay. My daughter usually steals my drinks but she had no interest in this one. My husband got a chai both times and enjoyed them. If you have time to get their app ahead of your visit, you get $1 off your first order and accrue points.

Sometimes on quiet days in town there is a wait because the cashier is also responsible for preparing the food/drinks, but it's always reasonable. The prices are very fair, they do not hit you with the "mountain tax" at all. The drip coffee is tasty and the espresso is good as well! I haven't had the pastries yet but they look good, especially the donuts, and I'm excited to come back and taste them. Today I had the breakfast burrito, the cashier was very helpful and accommodating of some recent dietary restrictions I have developed, and she made me a great burrito! I swapped out the bacon for avocado (not normal for me, but like I said, dietary restrictions) and it was just as good as with bacon! My burrito has avocado, eggs, hash browns and tomatoes, and it was exactly what I needed. Good to note that the only bread option is sourdough, however, it is very tasty homemade and fresh sourdough, which is quite the treat. Unfortunately, not for me today, but I have enjoyed it in the past. I usually get to go and drive up the hill to picnic with a view, but I'm looking forward to eating in one day. That atmosphere is very cozy and calm, both the inside and the patio are nice. Speaking of atmosphere, I was happy to see many pride and pro LGBTQ flags in the restaurant, helping foster a welcoming environment for all. TLDR - 1. Good food , good coffee , very fair prices. Mostly serving sandwiches, pastries, coffee. 2. Friendly and welcoming atmosphere and staff. 3. Big wine selection. 4. Cozy interior or nice patio for Al fresco dining.

Getting charged for the same coffee, same size and same ingredients and it's priced differently if I choose to get it cold . The nerve to up charge me for getting nothing more in my cup. I have been ordering this caramel macchiato for years so glad to find out there's a difference in price if I choose over ice or hot. Now one barista told me a couple of years ago that it was because the Starbucks I went to was franchised and they could charged what they want. I thought okay, I will avoid that one location . Now with the correct information on stealing money, it's clear Starbucks you have been playing up close and personal in your customers face. Well, I am a firm believer in revealing the fuckery that goes on daily. So here is a tip. Dutch Bros!!!!!

And then Kevin at the drive thru window before he handed me my coffee he knew by the weight of it that something was off so he said "I will have them remake this for you because it feels airy and I want you to enjoy your coffee so I'm going to make sure it will be made right for you". This is what is nice to see is a younger generation than me knows the skill of what customer service should be like and that was it. Not saying I'm old because I'm only 34 but my 1st job was food service at 18 and I stood in food service for 6 years up until I changed my career path at 26 years old and they made my experience fantastic. Exactly how I would've handled a customer back in my food service days at their age. Y'all are doing a fantastic job especially you, Yazmin. #LoveDutchBros
