    Cold foam Cold Brew Coffee

    Ordered a cold foam cold brew, and there was very little coffee in it. It was about 80% cold foam! I have always loved their cold brew but the inconsistency in the amounts of cold brew vs cold foam needs work.

    Just right honey syrup and 4 shot Americano. Is only a block from my Hampton Inn. Really cute place. Drive thru or walk up. Outside seating/umbrella tables/chairs. Pretty girls attending. All very good stuff here.

    Okay, the first time I was introduced to the Human Bean was a couple of years ago in Ashland. Yum! Swung through here at a busier time of morning. Super fast service, adorable ladies working here with lots of suggestions for future drinks and places to check out. I got the java chip frozen, kids got frozen hot chocolate and hubby his usual mocha. Omg, my drink was so good, and everyone swallowed their drinks up quickly as well. Delish! Yummy fact, you get a chocolate covered coffee bean on top of your drink. Great customer service and great coffee.

    Like any person I am filled with curiosity and when a new place opens up I always will go with an open mind and try something. This time I tried a small Java Chip. I wasn't a fan and the drink was a bit too watery for me and the flavor was really off. The only thing I enjoyed was the coffee bean candy they serve on top. From what I had, I have had a better versions at other establishments.

    Topless coffee,

    Java java java this coffee and the place itself is the best out there! Eugene has a bunch of great places for coffee but the human bean is at the top of my charts! I'm a trained chef and only like places that really care about customer service, quality and price! Awesome job opening this up in Eugene ! I'm happy they have other choices for milk! I choose coconut milk for my expresso yum

    BEST Coffee in the 541!  Service was always so sweet and helpful and the little coffee bean treat is such a nice surprise!!!

    My mocha was terrible. These people have absolutely no idea on the correct way to steam milk. Three sips and threw it away. I'm out!

    First of all, I must recognize the genius of providing every customer with a free chocolate covered coffee bean.

    I totally appreciate this local spot with many homemade items (down to the almond milk!). They have…read moregluten-free and vegan baked goods and a nice selection of savory and sweet food items as well. The toast on the side of an egg dish felt homemade (or at least locally sourced). The service was friendly and they have a welcoming little space that doesn't feel too crowded and feels nice to linger in. BUT the thing I can't get past is the price. I thought maybe because they make many of their ingredients or because it could be organic or gluten-free or something that drives the cost up? But then I looked at other comparable places around town: also locally-owned and homemade-focused. CPR is still way more expensive! $7.50 for a 12-ounce mocha PLUS $1.25 to sub oat milk. That's $8.75 for a small drink. The most I can find alternative milk costing per drink is $0.75 in town. No matter how good your food is or how much you've put into it, I cannot justify spending $8.75 for a 12 ounce treat more than once or twice a year. I'm sorry I can't visit more often. :(

If you're in Eugene and want top-tier coffee and great daytime food, this is the spot!

My drink was made much quicker this time compared to the first, which I appreciated. Loved that they were on top of customer service in person & over the internet when I had questions about what to order when I arrived. It was a convenient location for me.

Just down the street from Target, it's in very clear view right on the side of the road. 2)No seating available but... HUGE parking lot so you can park and enjoy your beverages! Perfect for meeting up with friends, or taking a date. 3)DID I MENTION HOW INEXPENSIVE IT IS?! Seriously, no other quality coffee place is this cheaply priced. Make sure to check out their monthly specials and discounts on certain days of the week! 4)Great variety of drinks! Their iced espresso drinks are to die for! But they also have a variety of teas, hot coffees, and other types of beverages as well! 5)The BEST customer service you will find anywhere. The baristas are incredibly nice and down to earth. Very friendly, but not obnoxious (like they are at Dutch Bros. Lol) Totally willing to answer any questions you may have, and always smiling. The baristas here treat each customer like a new friend. They will make you feel welcomed, and provide the best coffee experience you can imagine! 6)A VERY SPECIAL SHOUT OUT: To the amazingly kindhearted male barista with the Slitherin tattoo... My car battery died in the parking lot (because I was silly and left it running while I was talking with a friend), and he COMPLETELY SAVED THE DAY. Not only did he jump my car battery, he taught both my friend and I HOW to jump a car! He was incredibly sweet and kind. He acted like it was no big deal, but I am SO GRATEFUL. I wish I was Bill Gates or Elon Musk because I would have tipped this gentleman a gaziillion dollars if I could have. He is a modern day hero, and I will continue to come back to this coffee shop and spread the word about how AMAZING the baristas here are. Don't go anywhere else. Sip is the BEST.

It's not like going to a bad bar or even restaurant where you still can eat a few hours later. Coffee has a small window and a maximum amount of intake. That being said, this morning we chose wisely. Not only did we use Yelp but we backed up our decision with a google search and that took us to Reddit. Equiano was a top suggestion on both sites. And we understand why. The service was 100% top notch. Helpful. Friendly and knowledgeable, not only about what they offered but about the regions best shops! The coffee itself was very expressive. The Camaroon was totally my style with an earthier tone and the Chai was delightful. The outdoor seating was so very comfortable with a unique sort of panache that I would love to have at my neighborhood coffeeshop. The raked gravel was a nice touch. And even though they didn't have indoor seating with the drizzly day, it was a highlight that I will be repeating in our future travels.
