    a sign for a coffee shop

    This coffee was so good we came back twice on the same day! I got a caramel latte and a salted caramel latte the second time and both were just as yummy. Sadly we were only passing by while on a trip but I will be daydreaming about this yummy coffee for the rest of our trip.

    Purple Moose is one of the staples most any life-long resident would recognize. Though this isn't it's first, original location, this is where the iconic espresso stand has found it's permanent home in downtown Palmer. The location is ideal for business, next to one of the busiest intersections, but also slightly difficult to get in/out of during heavier traffic. It is very rare you'll find no line! As far as what they have to offer- WOW! You name it, they most likely have it or can make it! There are an abundance of flavor options. From hot to cold drinks, coffee, espresso, tea, smoothies, sodas... need a bite? They also have breakfast sandwiches, baked goods & other treats! My sister got her usual coffee beverage (I'm not a coffee drinker) so I didn't try hers, but she swears it is the best from THIS stand & no one else can compare. While I don't prefer regular Red Bull, I am a fan of their flavored versions, and this gave me the opportunity to customize it with my favorite: passion fruit! So, it's safe to say the passion fruit Red Bull Italian soda I ordered was fantastic! Not too sweet, perfect amount of flavor & just enough ice to keep it cold but not watered down. One suggestion I have for this business- place a menu large enough to read outside the stand near the drive-thru queue!!! There is literally no way to see what the options are before you get to the window. Which, in turn makes the wait a lot longer when you have to study the menu after getting to the window to decide. We wanted to have our order decided before getting to the window to speed things up a bit. It would significantly help both the customers & baristas. We literally don't have coffee stands like this in the Phoenix area. One thing I really miss about Alaska. It was great to have the opportunity to visit a few times while in town again. The ladies working here are very friendly & talented, excellent customer service. I wish I could visit more often to get my Purple Moose fix!

    Not bad! Open at 5:30am, has hot coffee. The eats didn't look like anything too out of the ordinary, the barista was friendly. My black Americano kept me awake for an early drive to the Matanuska Glacier.

    Best coffee in Palmer!
