Food was good and Chai tea was good but was way too expensive. I know that everything everywhere is getting higher in cost but a Chai tea late and Avocado toast was almost $20.00 too rich for my pocketbook. read more

They consistently have great food and drinks. I've gotten teas and coffees and they always taste great! The lattes don't disappoint and I recommend the chamomile iced tea for a refreshing beverage. This place has a really relaxed feel to it, and everything from the music to the interior reflects that. The service is amazing too! Super polite and helpful :) I come in here to do homework or to just spend and afternoon with friends. read more

This company used to be the local which has now been changed to Indaba due to new owners. Now, the coffee is never hot and over priced I got a dirty chai latte that wasn't even hot for 9.25. read more

Staff are extremely rude!! There menu doesn't show much on it so when I asked them if they make mochas she snidely responded with "that's a given" then we asked for blended snickers and she said they don't do blended drinks and she didnt know what a snickers was. It also took FOREVER to get our coffee after ordering. We won't be returning. read more

Great coffee and their avocado toast is TOO DIE FOR!! I like that they have healthy options on their menu and that they don't add a whole of sugar and junk to their coffees! read more

Coffee and the avocado toast goes well together and everyone was friendly. My friend has celiacs and they were completely understanding and quick about it. read more

Not the typical downtown location you would expect for an amazing third wave coffee shop. Excellent pour over options from Victrola Coffee Roasters in Seattle. Great chill music with a nice amount of bar and table seating with a few couches. Packed the entire time we were there from 10-11 AM on a Tuesday morning. Some impressive food offerings as well for a light breakfast. The Synesso MVP Hydra was a giveaway that these people are doing coffee and espresso right! read more

The service was extremely slow. I waited 10 minutes behind one car only to wait another 10 for the two drinks I ordered. They took so long and STILL didn't get it right. I had to park and go into the coffee shop to correct my order. One of the baristas was cleaning something(she took the order) and pretended i wasn't there- while the other barista looked at me and continued to serve the person at the window- which was fine but a "be right with you"is generally good customer service. The coffee was watered down and had no flavor- which with an americano is very disappointing. This has gone downhill since changing from being the Local. Will NOT be returning and encouraging others to not bother. read more

The energy at The Local is a strangely familiar mix between holidays at your Grandparents house and your second apartment after college. It smells great. Looks great. And above all, feels great. The whole staff is super cool and nice and always are up for conversation. When anyone asks a coffee recommendation in the Tri-Cities I always defer to The Local as the top spot for those expecting quality brew and warm atmosphere. Killer peeps makin' killer latte at The Local. Scones are good too. read more

As a barista myself, I was looking for a good place to get a caffeinated pick-me-up while in town. I think the barista there made me the best cortado I've ever had (which hurts a little because I'm including my own creations in that statement). She was very nice and the atmosphere in the shop was really pleasant. Looks like it would be a nice place to hang out and get some work time or to grab something and go! read more

They have super yummy coffee, my fav in town! Seriously has the best flavor. What's holding me back on a 5 star you ask, seriously slow AF! I usually go mid morning, maybe they have less people working at that time which I get and makes sense. I'll be in the area and LOOONG for a coffee from them, and then I'm like how much time do I have???? Hmmm.... Everyone has been super helpful and nice when I have gone in. I do wish they were a bit quicker or, I've asked for this a couple of times, how about an app so you can order ahead. Specifically, Joe Coffee, those boys who wrote the app are from around here. I listened to about 3 songs when I went through the drive through. I was the only car in the drive through. Am I harping just because of today? No been there several times and sooooo slllllooooowwww 9 out of 10 times. Did I mention the coffee is delish, so so so good! And so is the avocado toast! read more

This place totally rocks! I just love it. They have great coffee and one of the few Synesso espresso machines in the Tri-Cities. They actually know how how to make a correct capachino. The customer service is great and so it the coffee! read more

We decided to Yelp some coffee after Waze suggested a drive thru coffee shack, which I'm never a big fan of. Yelp gave The Local something like 4.5 stars and maybe 60 reviews or so which seemed impressive for TriCities. Parking was a breeze, though it was about 6 miles off course from 395 or 195, whichever highway crosses the bridge. Outdoor seating was cute. Walking in, we saw lots of dark wood grain, white ceramic and airy plants. Staff were very friendly (also I called to confirm their hours on Mother's Day and the phone service was lovely too) and expedient. I had the miel latte which tasted like iced coffee eggnog. Mmmm. Eggnog and horchata maybe. Best of both worlds. Boyfriend had the cold brew with grass fed half and half. An elevated experience! The water tasted clean and cold; you might be surprised how often this isn't the case. We loved the soft acoustic music on and the cozy seating clusters. Our area had a sweet midcentury lamp with an amber lightbulb with visible filaments, very Thomas Edison. Overall I can't think of a single reason to hate on this place. I didn't try the restroom but the wifi was fast and had an amusing password. Sweet little spot they have here. I'd def go again. read more

Great find on Yelp for Local coffee spot. Cool vibe. Tried Cardamom Vanilla latte and hubby had a cortado. Love great coffee spots and this is definitely one. read more

In town for work and stopped two separate for morning coffee. Great drinks and prices. Lots of seating inside, and a nice atmosphere.

Visiting the area and always on the lookout for good espresso. The local gets pretty good reviews on their coffee so stopped in to taste for myself. On a Saturday morning I would have expected to see more customers at first but it might have been in between rushes. 10ish I believe. One guy behind the counter handling the front and drive through. (Normally I avoid coffee shops with drive throughs). The gentleman was pretty quiet and not much personality. I'm good with that as long as he is good at what he does:) Serving Victrola coffee from Seattle and, they had some whole been Victrola coffee for sale with pretty decent roast dates, so good there. Ordered an 8oz mocha in house. Presentation lovely, good micro foam. Espresso itself was smooth, low on acidity. Notes of hazelnut but more of the skins and not the richness of the nut (if that makes sense)? On the negative side was temp as it was just too hot. Should be drinkable from the start but had to let it cool a bit. Business started to pick up as we were finishing up. Another gentleman came off break and was handling the front. He was much more personable it seemed. I guess they balance each other out. I would be back and give them another go. read more

Excellent service by excellent baristas! The atmosphere is great, with good music at a good volume. This is my favorite place to hang out with friends, catch up on work or enjoy a convo with my wife. read more

All drinks are always served to a "tea." Hehe. The baristas are super helpful and so kind. An absolute gorgeous place to either sip alone, enjoy a chat, or work on your laptop. The avocado toast and chocolate chip cookies (both vegan friendly just ask for the toast without butter) taste amazing! Would love some more vegan brunch options but I never leave dissatisfied! read more

one of my favorite places in tri-cities, GREAT coffee and their breakfast is solid. it's our weekly tradition to go here.

These guys are bringing great coffee to a small town. The beans from Victrola are above average and the brewing methods make it even better. It is hard to find a coffee location that offers Chemex in most cities but yes they do that. Aeropress, pour over and I think their working on getting a Syphon pot. Keep up the great work. Thanks to Yelpers for making The Local stand out. read more

Great coffee place !! I love this place, their coffee is amazing, friendly staff and clean place ! They also serve beer and cider !!! Starbucks addicts, give this place a try and support local businesses !! read more

Gotta come and try this coffee. Great atmosphere. Good sourced coffee. Great owners. Nice location. Perfect for any time or day of the week. Art around the shop is great too. Come try it when you have a chance read more

This place is really cute and they have a drive thru. It's close to the mall so you can make it your stop otw or after. It's cute inside but limited seated and lacks that cozy feel. Their menu is limited if you like fancy fancy drinks. That being said they DO have flavored syrups (unlike some local resilient coffee shops). They had a cardamom vanilla latte that sounded interesting but I just went for a regular cappuccino. They had milk alternatives which I love- almond, hemp, and soy. I ended up getting an almond milk cappuccino. It was really smooth and none of that bite you might be expecting. Delicious. I will be back. They have a cool rewards program that tracks with your credit card too which makes it way easier than an app. read more

This is the best coffee in the Tri-cities. The drinks are balanced, unlike so many of the other coffee shacks and shops in the area. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. read more

Staff was very friendly and everything was clean and orderly. Coffee was good, but not great. My mocha was just kind of warm.

Great atmosphere and definitely good but a little pricier than expected. I got a 12oz iced macchiato latte with almond milk and it was about $8. The baristas are super knowledgeable and this is definitely a coffee artist type of place. So overall I did really like them read more

Best coffee in town. Knowledgeable and super friendly people. Yeah, it might take a tad bit longer than your Starbucks, but that's because they are pulling that shot right. No sour or bitter espresso over here. My absolute favorite place! Some house-made syrups they incorporate into seasonal drinks, they also have a good variety of alternative milks to choose from. read more

Best coffee in town. Hands down. Let it drown. Your sorrows. read more

This is a great coffee place. The drinks, I've really just tried lattes, are wonderful. The coffee flavor is some if the best I've had. When ever I'm over to that part of the Tricities I will always stop by for my 'cup of joe'. Great service and great coffee! read more

Always great service! They customize to your liking and are very laid back. Great quiet atmosphere! Just a little pricy so I can't be a regular~ read more

Whoevers at the counter is my favorite barista at The Local, and is always absolutly exceptional! They always answers your questions so in depth, even if they're very basic. They'll go out out of her way to help you above and beyond, and they are always out of this world kind to every person that comes in door. read more

I went in and got a hot green tea latte and it I absolutely loved my drink. It was sweetened but not too much. Would definitely be back!

Do not miss this place. Nice vibe, great coffee and hot chocolate. Get the vanilla cardamom latte. It really is a great combo!!!

Best iced matcha ever. We went this morning and ordered what we normally do, but it tasted like watered down milk and didn't appear to have any matcha in it. We told them nicely and they were so kind and remade it- and once again it was delicious!! Nothing beats good service! read more

Sitting here right now having a cinnamon honey latte. It's seasonal. Delicious. I would give it 4.5 stars overall if I could because the drink is way too hot. Took 10 minutes to have a drink. Cozy setting and fast service. read more

Indaba Coffee Roasters - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Kennewick, Washington

The best coffee shop I have been to in the world. This is not an exaggeration. Ever since having the best classic cappuccino I had ever experienced when I was in Italy, I was on the search to repeat that experience. I have tried to find something as good as those Italian cappuccinos in shops all over the US and Europe. I have come close a few times. (Having a flat white at 3fe in Dublin set a new mark for just as good as Italian cappuccino) But when the Local opened several years ago and I walked in and asked the owner, Michael, to make me a flat white, he laughed and said, "I can do that," and since that day I have almost every single day enjoyed the most breathtakingly perfect coffee in the most friendly shop in the Tri-Cities. It simply doesn't get any better. read more
