Honestly I have stopped here numerous times and I was shocked by some of the reviews! I think this place is fantastic. The people are sweet and definitely take time and consideration into making me my drink. It's an adorable drive thru! I love the vegan options along with regular options too. Since I will be moving to the area I can't wait to stop by while walking the dog and grab my daily dose of caffeine. :) read more

It seems I stand corrected on my original review as my experience is not to norm. Romanos has made many changes to their establishment and I recommend y'all check them out because their coffee truly is amazing!! read more

We are down in Eugene for a baseball tournament and drove by this coffee cart/shop. I stopped by yesterday and ordered a chocolate and coffee with espresso.. after we paid I realized that it likely didn't have milk in it so I just figured I'd 'just drink it.' When I tell you this is the best I've ever had... I LOVE coffee and I've had it all over and this shop has some of the best I've had. I went back today and got the chocolate latte and man.. once again... so good! I see some reviews talk about how long it takes to get your order.. if I wanted quick mediocre coffee you could go to Starbucks.. I'd wait 20 min for this latte. The food is good and the coffee with the chocolate ganache is top notch! Service was great too! If I'm ever in the neighborhood again I'm definitely stopping by! read more

Romano's - Coffee and baseball fields - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

I don't even remember how the coffee was due to what the staff said and how much it upset me. It's been 3 months so this isn't an emotionally charged review. I've thought a lot about this and I believe they deserve some feedback. This is a dark one folks! I told them it was my dog's last day alive (put to sleep due to low quality of life from cancer). I wanted to make it the best it could be and had ordered a pup cup. Instead, the older woman frowned dramatically and said "Well that's not what I would do. He looks fine." I explained how underweight he was and how he hadn't been himself for months. After they got my drink the guy with the pony tail leaned out and said I should take my dog to Greenhill so they could get him the expensive surgery I mentioned (that had only a 30% chance of extending his life mayyybbbeee a few horrible months). As if I wasn't doing enough or wasn't wealthy enough to deserve to make this decision! Thanks. Not only did these people make me cry MORE on one of the worst days of my life, but their coffee is meh. Forgettable. And I even spoiled myself. Find another coffee hut friends! read more

Romano's - Here is my sick dog the day this business made me feel I put him down unnecessarily. Stick to coffee! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

$19 bucks for 2 drinks- quad mochas....slow service and sometimes they are not even at the shop...a sign says "be back in 2 minutes..." but I waited like ten...the drinks were really good though. Service today way ok. read more

Romano's - Coffee time - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

Great service GREAT food and GREAT coffee. Absolutely recommend trying! I've found myself coming back over and over again to get a breakfast bagel and a white mocha coffee. Both are not even comparable to another place. Worth every bit of your $ and time read more

The service appeared intentionally delayed. Landscaping is perfect while there are no customers (open 7 days a week). PR seems to be dwindling (i.e., unnecessary watering of not just pristine gardening, but of roadways creates traffic issues). A new gas station indicates there will be more business for this quaint coffee shop, yet staff appears hostile of construction and potential customer flow--usually dusty roads are understandably frustrating yet temporary. Seems to be all window-dressing. Chances are low if you want a good experience. read more

How is this place even in business? When we first moved in this neighborhood I was so excited to have a coffee shop right next to me. The coffee is disgusting! Thought it may have been a bad day so gave it another try, still disgusting!! Only giving it a one star bc I cant give it a zero. Dari-marts coffee is way better than this place! Not to mention there is never any cars there. The son has mentioned they have property in Blue River...this coffee shop is probably a cover up for what they have going on there bc there is no way this place makes any money. read more

I have had several bad experiences here but today was beyond belief. This is a family business and lately the mother has taken over. At first my experience with her was positive. However today when I pulled up and placed my order the son told me he couldn't talk to me without angering his mom. Then as he went back to make my order I heard her start screaming at him. She didn't care at all that I was there. I continued to wait for my order while they had a argument. Mostly her yelling. I ended up rolling my window up to wait in peace. Suddenly she comes to the window and tells me they wont give me my food and that I should leave. I said "I can't have my soup?" and that's when she started screaming at me. She told me I was not being sypmathetic to their situation. Which I am completely unaware of. Then she threw my money at me and told me never to return. I feel like she took her crap out on me because I overheard her yelling at her son. So by then she just didn't care. This is not the first negative or even crazy experience I have had here but this was certainly the last straw. They never have anyone in line or seem to be doing any business so I do believe the shop is a front for their marijuana business that they run up in blue river. I am considering alerting the IRS. Absolutely will be reporting to the Better Business Bureau. read more

My first experience at Romano's. I had the sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich on an everything bagel. Everything is freshly and individually cooked not frozen in a wrapper and microwaved for 4 minutes. It was phenomenal as it was seasoned too. I also had their "locally famous" coffee milkshake. Again. . .phenomenal! I definitely recommend you give them a try. Great food, great drink, great service. The decor outside is beautiful too and inside is clean and tidy. read more

I have been a customer of many coffee shops over the years. I prefer Ramonos. I have a favorite flavored latte. They are happy to accommodate my special request. The staff always makes me feel like I'm home. I always try to support this local family business. I highly recommend you try their coffee. You won't be sorry. I give them 5 stars....more if that was an option. read more

My wife went to Romanos Wednesday for her morning latte. Her review is listed below under Kathy W. She was there when the dangerous situation was happening. The person giving a poor review must have been involved some how. I have been there several times with my wife. I have always been impressed with the owner and her sons. I give them 5 stars not only for their coffee but the grace in handling the issue. Try the coffee and breakfast. read more

True story: I'm almost 59 and I'd never had coffee until a few weeks ago. When I was a kid, I got hives after my high chair was placed a couple of feet from my parents' coffee maker. The doctor said I was allergic to the oil in coffee. For that reason, I've avoided the drink my entire life. That being said, I've always wondered if I could drink espresso, since the oil is squeezed out of the coffee beans. However, I didn't try it because of the risk I'd end up in urgent care, or worse. 3 weeks ago, I finally took a chance while I was waiting in The Ark's parking lot for an elderly relative and his dog. The menu at Romano's, including all the syrups, was just too enticing. Espresso, where have you been all my life? I had a cappuccino with a shot of lavender syrup. It was fantastic. Since that time, I've tried the cappuccino at other local coffee places. From my experience, I can say Romano's is the best. If you're not a coffee drinker, I can also recommend the London Fog: Earl Grey, steamed milk, lavender and vanilla. Awesome! I live too far away to get to Romano's every day. Since I love this place, I've made it my Friday morning ritual to drive over before work. Service is a little slow, so if you're in a hurry, Romano's probably isn't the right place for you. If you've got the time, I highly recommend Romano's. It's well worth the wait. Thanks, guys, for introducing me to the wonderful world of espresso. read more

This is the best kept Expresso Bar in town. It also has the best iced blended Mochas around. I have gotten other iced blended mochas from other places around town and Romano's are the best. It's so cute and so clean. The grounds are always kept up. Russ and his brother are very friendly and eager to please. Please support this business. It is right by the ark on Barger. read more

best place in town , they out live into every cup of coffee ! This coffee shop has been around since I was a kid. Such good people definitely support your local coffee shop. They will put love and every bit of your coffee cup. read more

I wish more people knew about this place. A lot of healthy options for food at very affordable pricing. Smoothies and juices are excellent.

I am reluctant to try new coffee shops but I did honestly because their shop and landscaping is top notch so I figured their coffee would be too and yup I was right ! Good friendly people work there I highly recommend this place ! read more

After pulling up to the window I noticed the barista guy wasn't wearing a mask and I observed for a while before making my decision to leave. I just felt a really weird vibe from the guy. Then coming home I decided to look at reviews and I am not alone! I definitely wouldn't expect a bubbly barista at all, I am just following my gut on this one. I went to Starbucks. So much for buying local! read more

The most I can say about this place is just alright. Came here at 7:15 in the morning to get coffees for my co-workers, there wasn't a line, so I thought it wouldn't take long for this order to be completed. Wrong. I ordered 4 Vanilla Lattes. The wait was LONG, and somewhat agonizing to wait when I was on my way to work. The man at work was very focused on making the drinks right, which I do appreciate. What I should have accounted for is the extra charge for syrups - which was way too much in my opinion. I ended up paying almost 20 dollars for 12 oz. coffees. The quality was fair, and the location is convenient for me because I only live a block away. But if there's any Dutch Bro nearby, I would probably opt for Dutch Bro for their fairer pricing. read more

I placed my order for drinks and realized the man wasn't wearing a mask. I asked him why and he said "do you not want your drinks then?" I told him no thank you and left. read more

My girlfriend's family lives out here in Eugene and Romano's is a must for every visit. The coffee is well made and all of the food is delicious with generous vegan and non-vegan options. Everything is freshly prepared, so sometimes you have to wait, but the wait is worth it. Highly recommend visiting for a good cup of Joe and a hot meal. read more

Absolutely awful. Ordered two black coffees and a hot coco, and somehow the bistro messed up all three. Complete waste of time and money. Worst coffee concoction I've ever bought. read more

The coffee is just ok but the service is horrendous. The gentleman who is always there is super slow, inattentive, and not following health department guidelines. I'd give 0 stars if I could. read more

Both recent trips here we've had weird experiences. The first time, the week after the Oregon Country Fair, the guy working there just stared awkwardly and touched the machinery. His behavior was so off my *8 year old child asked he he was on drugs* We ordered a decaf americano, but what we got could barely be classified as coffee. Thinking that must have been an odd fluke I went back for a large black iced coffee. There was 1 car ahead of me who, as best as I could tell, ordered 2 drinks. I was stuck behind them for 30 minutes. Ridiculous. Save yourself time and energy and drive across town to one of the other Full City locations where the service and coffee are outstanding. read more

I live next to this place & honestly this guy makes the BEST real coffee in this area!! I'm always gonna like this place & recommend it to friends & family. & who cares if the barista is odd.. this Eugene get over it and drink good coffee Keep up the baller work guys! read more

Your typical, run of the mill coffee place. Nice set up but the barista was a bit odd. read more

Romano's - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

I really wish I could give a zero star. I'm the idiot that gave this place 3 chances. Cappuccino, crap. Americano, crap. I asked for 2 shots of espresso over ice so I could put my protein shake in it. Easy enough right? Wrong! I got some watered down espresso that tasted like there was sugar in it when I asked for no sugar. The person that works the counter is very slow to make your order and has no customer service skills. He was talking about how I was in a rush and that's why my drink looked that way. I didn't indicate that I was in a rush other than the fact that I waited 15 minutes behind ONE car! You'll get a better coffee Dari Mart. I just wish there was a Starbucks my side of town. read more

Terrible service. I'm not sure what the deal was. Barista was very odd. Could not remember any of my order & had to have asked me at least 3-4 times the size, the flavor, milk on & on. Took almost ten minutes to produce a 12oz mocha. I likely won't be back. read more

There's not a lot of options for coffee in this part of town. Romano's makes excellent coffee for any part of town. Full City beans are the business!!! Perfect, delicious coffee every time. read more

Good coffee, good conversation...and the most beautifully landscaped espresso drive through anywhere. I also love the fresh fruit & veggie juices, great prices too. Thanks Romano's, i'll see you again! read more

Their service may take longer than other coffee stands, but it's worth the wait! I go there specifically for the juice-my kids absolutely love it! It's all fresh and made to order. Totally delicious every time. The servers are always so friendly, and the shop looks impeccable. It's so clean and attractively decorated. Vistong this shop is a bright spot in my family's morning. These folks are the best! read more

This was my second time here, my first experience was similar, but I thought I'd give it a second chance. I waited long enough to consider leaving- the gentleman seemed to be under the influence and disappeared three times, once before taking my payment after giving me the total and a second time after taking my money before making my drink and after preparing my drink. (No idea what he was doing) :-/ I did not care for you bitterness of my mocha either. read more

I regret that I was a dick about the guy working last time - he seems nice enough, just not customer service oriented at all. He's also kinda slow - it would have been faster to drive somewhere else and back than he spent making two iced quad mochas. But when he warned me that there coffee is rather strong & not to drink both of them myself, he actually showed some personality, so now I feel bad for implying he's some kind of murderer (which he still could be I guess). He was right though - this coffee will keep me going all day! read more

I'm obsessed with the iced soy latte here, what a treat! This coffee stand is close by my job so I go there pretty often during the work week and now I'm so addicted that I sometimes go very far out of my way on the weekend to have it. Also, the food is really really good. Highly recommend the egg and cheese croissant. I can't stand going to drive through coffee places like Dutch bros because I can't deal with the obnoxious in your face baristas... The coffee guy that is there often has been nice to me every time I've been there. He doesn't make a ton of small talk which I actually really appreciate (Hey I'm a New Yorker, what can I say) Some of these reviewers should be ashamed of themselves... I thought Eugene's whole shtick was being super laid back and accepting, pfft... guess not! If you need a fake smile and a forced compliment every time you order coffee, then just go somewhere else? Yes, the coffee takes a couple of minutes, chill out about it, there is one employee there... it's worth it ! read more

Wow I'm kind of horrified, and shocked by the reviews I read below. Last weekend was my first trip to this shop and I came back the next day for a pick me up before heading back to Portland. Next time I'm in Eugene for another family function I'll plan to return. The barista was incredibly nice and friendly, albeit sort of a quiet person. He was very engaging as he made me a really delicious drink. We talked about the fact that they have vegan hot dogs available, among their food selection. (Pastries, sandwiches, etc.) My best friend is vegan, so I'm always looking for places around town that have something she can enjoy. Anyway, I ordered a granola bar wedge along with my iced white mocha on my first visit. I liked the big chunks of walnuts in the granola bar. No idea if they make this in house or if it's from a local company or what. The next day when I returned for a caffeine blast to send me up i5, I chatted with the same guy as the day before and he made me another yummy iced white mocha. (Yay for consistency!) Come to find out he's one of the owners, and he and his brother have had the place for 15 years. I thought that was pretty cool. I'll be back to support this small, local business. -Shame on the people being super judge-y. This is Eugene, for hippie's sakes. :) read more

Wow! That was a scary encounter... Over priced and flat out strange! The barista appeared to be stoned, my mom actually wondered if he had just robbed the place, as he appeared lost and looked like he'd been in a fight. He was very rude and actually told me as we were leaving "Just so ya know... I won't ever wait on you again." $2.40 for a single shot Americano I was honestly afraid to drink & didn't, that's how uneasy he made us feel. read more

Borgia is so great and I hate orange with chocolate but not here love it. Nice reminder to shut car off while waiting for drinks

I had the worst experience ever at this coffee shop. We went in this morning to get some coffee the guy at the window looked asleep and disgruntled. Then we ordered a hot mocha and an Iced mocha both came back burnt with no flavor. I would say avoid it just go next door to dairy mart it would be better. read more

its Dexter! lol I really enjoyed the coffee I got from Romanos. I asked for something that taste good and the barista made my coffee better then any Dutch bros I have been to. read more

Horrible customer service. We walked up and ordered 2 coffees. As we were waiting I was watching the barista make the first coffee, and he lost it. He went off about me being in his personal bubble. (I was outside the window and like 5 ft away.) At first I was like sorry didn't mean to look at you while you prepared our coffee....however, when he kept going off on me I asked for my card and left to defuse the situation. Maybe he was having a bad day ‍ I'll never go back. Coffee was average and service was slow the other times I have stopped by. read more
