They give the pup a treat and it's just a nice laid back experience. I've never been in a line up either like other shops. I usually get to pull right up. I always like getting a double shot the first time I go to a coffee stand to see how they are dialed in and it wasn't bad! Slightly sour, by a smidge. But it's unusual to get a shot of espresso usually I've found, haha. Still it's a great place to grab a coffee, go to the goodwill, and then off to do errands. Or grab a coffee before headed off to the trail for a walk on a sunny beautiful morning.

Mount Si with oat milk has been our favorite drink consistently and we got it today and it was just not good unfortunately. I'm not sure if the baristas changed or if they changed brands for any of their products but very sad about it. There is really not enough flavor anymore, coffee tastes a little burnt, and it's more watery than it used to be.

I ordered a vanilla latte and asked if they could use whole milk, but they only had 2% milk. The barista told me she could "make" whole milk for me by mixing the 2% with half and half so i said sure.

Although customer service was great and the person helping us was really friendly.. the latte was not good. I don't see myself coming back if I am ever in the area.

Was told by order taker that there hasn't been prices for "quite a while" since they changed the prices because they would have to order new menus. ~my advise is get a different menu board that allows you to post the price. Give "if you have to ask, you can't afford it" vibe. After I ordered(a 32oz Red Bull flavored spritzer), the lady said "see you up here". I had to ask what my total was because I like to get my money ready for when the window opens... She said "give me a minute"... I was floored when my total was $10.61 That's $2.00 more than I've ever paid for that sort of drink even at Dutch Bros. Place just gives off a snotty vibe. It's the third time I've ordered from them, the other 2 were for lattes. The lattes were mediocre to say the least. After this experience, I can say it was my last visit. Ironic to have this snooty feeling wine bar almost across the street from the PlaMore tavern lol!!!

CHAYEN COFFEE: AN IDENTITY CRISIS IN CAFFEINE FORM…read more Let me start by saying their Vietnamese coffee is an absolute masterpiece - the condensed milk ratio is so perfect it could make a barista weep tears of perfectly filtered water. BUT CAN WE ADDRESS THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM? This is NOT, I repeat, NOT the wild west-themed Wyoming coffee experience my brain desperately wanted it to be. Do you understand my disappointment when I walked in, fully decked out in my authentic 1880s frontier attire, spurs jingling with anticipation, only to discover there wasn't a single piece of barbed wire decor or vintage Wyoming license plate in sight? I had practiced my frontier coffee ordering accent for WEEKS. "One black coffee, pardner" - WASTED. Their egg coffee? Transcendent. The way they blend the egg yolk creates a custard-like texture that's basically heaven in liquid form. BUT WHERE ARE THE HISTORICAL PHOTOS OF CHEYENNE'S FIRST RAILROAD DEPOT? I brought my great-grandfather's Union Pacific timetables for NOTHING. Sure, their premium tea selection would make an emperor bow in respect, but let's talk about what's really important: I came here fully expecting to learn about Wyoming's territorial history while sipping coffee from a tin cup. Instead, I'm drinking from elegant ceramic cups with actual proper temperature control. THE AUDACITY. The staff's expertise in traditional Vietnamese brewing methods is outstanding, absolutely. But you know what they CAN'T tell me? The exact date when Cheyenne's first saloon opened. I had an entire conversation prepared about 19th-century Wyoming coffee consumption patterns. My research about frontier coffee grinding techniques? USELESS. Their cold brew is steeped for exactly 18 hours to achieve optimal flavor complexity. Whatever. I spent 18 hours creating a historically accurate map of 1867 Cheyenne's coffee shops (there were none - it was all saloons) for this visit. Now what am I supposed to do with it? Five stars for their phenomenal coffee program - their traditional Vietnamese brewing techniques are flawless. But MINUS several imaginary stars for not being the niche Wyoming-themed establishment my geographically confused brain invented. I've started a support group for other people who came here expecting to discuss Wyoming territorial governance while drinking coffee. We meet weekly at the library's Wyoming history section, sipping their excellent Vietnamese coffee and coming to terms with our misplaced expectations. P.S. I heard they're adding new seasonal drinks next month. I'm trying really hard not to assume they're named after Wyoming landmarks. (But if they want my list of potential frontier-themed beverage names, I have 47 pages ready to go.) P.P.S. The pastries are amazing too, though distinctly lacking in sourdough biscuits and frontier trail mix. But seriously, their croissants are so good I almost forgot about my planned dissertation on the role of coffee in the Wyoming Stock Growers Association circa 1884. Note: To the staff who patiently explained that "Chayen" is not a misspelling of "Cheyenne" - I apologize for bringing in my detailed presentation about Wyoming state capitol architecture. But I still think your excellent coffee would taste even better served in a tin cup next to a replica stagecoach. Just saying.

I reviewed about six years ago, but it isn't five stars like it used to be. The staff are great,…read morevery friendly and helpful. The location is nice and spacious and well kept. I've never had issues with my orders. The issue is this location used to be a great "neighborhood gathering place", but several times over the past couple years, post Covid, they've had staffing issues and shut down the lobby. This time for an entire month in the afternoon, and it was closed this past weekend Sunday morning. This isn't the first time or I'd understand. Starbucks didn't become successful on the strength of their coffee and product line, they became successful due to being a place people could gather and interact with friendly staff who know your name. This location is losing that all important aspect of being a Starbucks, and recently I've been spending time at other coffee shops in the area and have seen other people and families doing the same. I've been a regular since this location opened and it has always been my favorite place, but it really is declining and I hope some positive changes are made.

I've just read the first 6 or 7 feedbacks and they were ALL TRUE in my experiences as well…read more Same problems I've had every time I go to this worst Starbucks ever and I've been a daily customer for 40 years! I am new to Covington and almost all 4 Starbucks I've gone to were bad except this one being written up is the WORST. baristas always manage to fill my oat milk latte to 3/4 way up the cup instead of producing a full cup. Customers pay a good sum for their lattes/drinks so do it right! My latte would taste like water even with a triple shot grande it made very little difference. Staff chit chatting with each other while customers wait. Also, 8 out of 10 times a barista would mess up my drink and ordered items. Then the worst part was having baristas with sweaty palms or heavy perfume placing their whole palm on the lid of my cup to close it tighter. That happened several times not just in this Starbucks but in other stores as well. Yet another one that could easily be fixed is by training your baristas/staff NOT to place or touch the lid particularly the zippy mouth piece that a user drinks out of. The lid is always wet with huge droplets or splashes of water on the inside of the lid. I've had to throw out the lattes twice as they tasted so bad (like licking someone's sweats or drinking perfumed infused latte!!

FARMHOUSE BREW: WHERE'S MY EMOTIONAL SUPPORT GOAT?…read more Look, their pour-over coffee is nothing short of miraculous - each cup personally blessed by what I assume must be artisanal coffee angels. BUT WHERE ARE THE BABY GOATS IN PAJAMAS? I arrived fully expecting to sip my artisanal latte while a miniature donkey named Espresso gently headbutted my knee for attention. Their single-origin Ethiopian roast? Divine. The tasting notes include hints of blueberry and jasmine. You know what DOESN'T include blueberry and jasmine? THE CONSPICUOUS ABSENCE OF A CHICKEN COOP NEXT TO THE SUGAR STATION. I brought three different types of organic chicken feed IN CASE THEY HAD A PREFERENCE. Sure, their cold brew is steeped for 19 hours in pristine mountain water collected by monks. But let's talk about what's really important: I've been here SEVEN TIMES and have yet to see a single sheep wearing a hand-knitted sweater waddle up to me asking for oat milk foam leftovers. I even bought a tiny shepherd's crook FOR NOTHING. The baristas can discuss coffee terroir with PhD-level precision, but can they tell me why there isn't a pot-bellied pig named Lord Bacon III greeting customers at the door? I specifically came wearing my rubber boots today, prepared to stand in authentic farm mud while ordering my cappuccino. Their seasonal spiced latte is a masterpiece of flavor balance. Whatever. I've been sitting here for two hours and not once has a heritage breed rooster named Colonel Clucksworth interrupted my laptop time with his perfectly timed morning crow. The ambiance is SEVERELY lacking in authentic farm chaos. Listen, the recycled barn wood aesthetic is cute and all, but you can't just slap some Edison bulbs on a ceiling and call yourself "Farmhouse" without providing at least ONE alpaca in a bow tie who judges people's coffee orders with gentle humming sounds. Five stars for their coffee program - their commitment to craft is undeniable. But NEGATIVE FARM ANIMAL stars for creating false hopes of being able to share my morning scone with a dairy cow named Ms. Moochiato. I've started a petition to add at least a small petting zoo corner. So far I have three signatures, including one that might just be a coffee stain that looks like a signature. P.S. I heard they're expanding their patio next month. I've already drafted architectural plans that include a miniature barn where therapy chickens can host coffee cupping sessions. I'm willing to negotiate on the chicken sweater designs. P.P.S. The pastries are excellent, though they would taste demonstrably better if delivered by a pygmy goat wearing a tiny apron and name tag. I've done the research - goat-delivered croissants increase customer satisfaction by 427%. Note: To the staff who keep explaining that "Farmhouse" refers to their rustic aesthetic - I understand, but have you considered that your tip jar would overflow if you just added one (1) baby lamb in rain boots who helps steam milk? Just one. That's all I'm asking for. I already have the rain boots in three sizes. Special Addendum: I'm not saying your business model is flawed, but I am saying that every coffee shop is improved by the addition of a miniature horse barista apprentice named Macchiato McFoamerson III.

ROAST REPUBLIC: A MISLEADING MANIFESTO OF MEATY DISAPPOINTMENT…read more Listen, their coffee is an absolute revelation - each sip is like having your taste buds personally high-fived by the coffee gods themselves. BUT WHERE ARE THE SLOW-COOKED POT ROASTS? I showed up with THREE SEPARATE GRAVY BOATS and my grandmother's vintage meat thermometer FOR NOTHING. Their house blend has notes of chocolate, caramel, and bitter betrayal - because despite the word "ROAST" being RIGHT THERE IN THE NAME, I have yet to see a single dutch oven full of fork-tender beef chuck with baby carrots. I've been carrying around these emergency potatoes in my pocket FOR WEEKS just in case today was finally pot roast day. Sure, their light roast Ethiopian Yirgacheffe dances on your tongue with hints of bergamot and citrus. But let's talk about what's really important: I've developed a comprehensive business plan for a combination coffee shop/pot roast takeout window. I call it "Brews & Braising." They won't even look at my drawings of the proposed gravy dispensing station. The baristas can describe their roasting process down to the exact second and degree, but can they tell me why there isn't a single slow cooker bubbling away with aromatics and beef stock behind the counter? I've started bringing my own crockpot and just staring at it meaningfully while ordering my cappuccino. Their nitro cold brew is silky smooth with a perfect cascade. Whatever. You know what else cascades beautifully? PERFECTLY LAYERED POT ROAST WITH ROOT VEGETABLES. The sign says "Roast" Republic, not "Just Coffee Bean Roast and No Other Types of Roast Whatsoever" Republic. I've spent countless hours in their comfortable seating area, inhaling the aroma of freshly roasted coffee while quietly weeping over the complete absence of slow-cooked meat. I even created a loyalty program concept: "Buy 10 lattes, get a free pot roast." They said it "wasn't aligned with their brand vision." WHOSE VISION DOESN'T INCLUDE POT ROAST? Five stars for their coffee program - their commitment to bean sourcing and roasting is exceptional. But NEGATIVE MEAT stars for the cruel bait-and-switch of their name. I've started a support group for other customers who came expecting a combination coffee shop/pot roast emporium. We meet weekly, drinking their excellent coffee while sharing pot roast recipes that will never be used here. P.S. I heard they're introducing new seasonal drinks next month. I've already prepared a 73-page proposal for "The Pot Roast Latte" - coffee with beef broth and caramelized onion foam. Their loss. P.P.S. The pastries are delightful, though they would pair perfectly with a side of fork-tender chuck roast. I'm just saying, nobody ever complained about having TOO MANY pot roast options with their morning coffee. Note: To the staff who keep explaining that they only roast coffee beans - I understand, but have you considered the marketing potential of "Buy a pound of coffee, get a pound of pot roast"? I've already designed the promotional materials. The slogan is "Come for the Coffee, Stay for the Meat Sweats." Special Addendum: I'm not saying your business model is flawed, but I am saying that every coffee shop is improved by the addition of at least one industrial-sized slow cooker named Bessie. Think about it.
