This review is for the experience I had yesterday during my quick trip to the mall…read more This little, new coffee place was in the old business spot where Teavana used to be for years at the Independence Center. Though it's been a good handful of years since then I still miss Teavana dearly. Giraffe Coffee was a fun experience and Angel, the lovely person working the shop was such a delight. Very sweet and engaging. ^__^ She prepared my small frozen blended coffee, which I had with almond milk & hazelnut syrup. Honestly, the coffee was WAY too sweet for my personal preference, but of course I still had a nice time there. The boost of energy was why I did it! It certainly provided that and a mild tummy ache afterward lol.. Next time I'll have to try one of their teas! My only reason for swinging by the mall as soon as I got off work was to do some product exchanges at another business there, which was successful. Never hurts trying someth'n new and all! Again, next time I'm trying one of their teas. It's still really weird for me knowing Teavana isn't there anymore, and honestly I don't think I'll ever be "used" to it. But I'll forever associate that business spot with them as time passes.

Big shout out to him and his crew for another spectacular coffee shop in a new and well thought out location. I love the decor too b.t.w. The Yelp review site still has images of the Delaware location, and it's deceiving because I assumed it was still same location but different owners. It's the exact opposite, same great faces but different space--thankfully so. The coffee is still delicious, and you can't expect it not to be since Drew knows his coffee. The breakfast items are still the ones he had at the Delaware and all good here too. Honestly, the place has that very cool old town coffee shop charm.

By far the worst coffee I've ever had. Honestly, something had to be wrong with it. I ordered an…read moreiced vanilla latte with oat milk, and it tasted unlike any latte I've ever had, in the worst possible way. I couldn't taste either the vanilla or the coffee, and there were some strange white bits floating throughout the drink that made it even more off-putting. To be fair, the service was friendly, the drink was made quickly, and the shop itself seemed like a nice place to sit down and get some work done. The atmosphere was pleasant and I could see why people enjoy spending time there. Unfortunately, none of that could make up for the coffee. The drink was genuinely unpleasant, and since that's the main reason I came, I can't overlook how bad it tasted.

I got an large iced pumpkin spice oatmilk latte and it was $8.25.. Definitly a bit pricey and the pumpkin loaf was $5. We also got a bagel that was $4.75 and the bottom was unfortunately burnt. The coffee itself was decent. The staff that assisted us was pretty friendly but the other gal didn't give any friendly vibes. I don't know if I'd go back with all the other coffee options.
