    This place is my favorite, they do a fantastic job with making my coffee dreams come to life. The cold brew or espresso is the biggest decision because both are sooo tasty

    Vanilla scone

    This is such a cool spot! I've seen it on door dash for a while now and decided to check it out in person. Very unique and they're always running fun promotions. Spoke with one of the owners/founders and she was so friendly! Very kind, helpful, and funny. This place was quick, has a variety of offerings, and a little bit of something for everyone! I ordered the iced salted caramel white mocha & it was perfect. You could taste the coffee, while also being sweet and smooth. The salted caramel was to die for. They also offer a variety of fresh local pastries - we tried the vanilla scone from rose hill bakery. This was one of the best scones I've ever had! It was great flavor and texture, while not being dry or crumbly. This is a definite must hit if you're in the area. The people are so friendly and fun, the flavors and options are many and delish. 10/10!

    Nothing more needs to be said than that this place has very good coffee AND they have heavy cream. GREAT!

This joint is so much fun. You walk in and you're instantly bombarded with all these fun goodies to look at. Candles, socks, mugs, candy, stickers. As much as I needed that drink, I had to look and touch everything first! I love all the fun things they have out. You can literally spend a good hour checking out every piece of retail available! It was hard not to pick, touch or smell everything! Made my way up to the counter. The first thing you notice is all the baked goods. The display case was full of delicious treats. Every pastry looked divine. That's one thing about Flying M, it's a guarantee that your baked goody is going to be out of this world tasty! I have yet to have a bad pastry at a Flying M. It was finally my turn to order my drink, everyone came in all at once. I was greeted by a handsome smile. I ordered my regular drink when I spec out new spots. So today I got an iced americano with sugar free chocolate with room for cream. I made sure it was a large, I needed a good jolt of caffeine. Bro, this americano was money. The espresso was strong and not watered down. I added the cream so it was the perfect amount. I did add a couple packets of Splenda cause the espresso was not shy in this drink. It was so good! I sat outside and enjoyed it. It was the perfect day to enjoy an iced coffee under the warm sun. Flying M downtown Boise should take come customer service pointers from this joint. It's night and day. I stopped going to the Flying M downtown because the customer service was so inconsistent. Some days they were so nice and then some days the baristas were so rude. I had such a great experience here. The venue is fun. The gentleman that helped me was so nice! My drink was on point! I'm happy I stopped in today. Looking forward to coming back and getting another amazing iced americano.

Or just charge me before hand for it... very unprofessional and bad service in my opinion. I use to work at a coffee shop and the most important thing is to give the customer good service and be kind.

The service is good and the product is always high quality. My big complaint is the constant upsales. "Would you like to add an extra shot?" "No." "Would you like to add avocado spread to that today?" "No." "Are you SURE you don't want to add a pumpkin scone later? They're really good, and you can freeze them later." "NO." One or two offers is fine, but going so far to push pastries so I can freeze them for later? Please stop. Its enough to make me stop at one of the three stores that are out of my way, but still on my way to work.

We decided to drive up to the window; the barista and her supervisor or coworker gave us an attitude and was mean to us. They didn't try to understand why we drove up and previously "yelling" for us to not drive up. No one was behind us or in front of us. They gave us green tea fraps with NO sugar in it. We drove up because my sister talked sort of soft voiced and also the barista's voice was unclear so it made for a unclear order. History on why we drove up.... My sister was still having residual issues with her speech, she had a stroke a year ago. The barista ladies didn't seem to try to understand our reason before having the attitudes at the window and being unkind after taking our money. Rude, ill mannered, unprofessional, and poor ethics. Its disappointing, sadly wished they had integrity in their work and better customer service behaviors. They should try to be more understanding and more open to their customers, there might be a valid reason for the customer's decisions. Please see what's happening before deciding to take it out of context and punish your customers.

I walked in and OMG, It's way bigger than I thought and so stunning! The booths and chandeliers were very classy. The bartender Mel assisted me and she was very pleasant. She let me know that while they have coffee drinks, she's not much of a barista...they have an experienced barista on staff but they only work there from about 7am to 1pm and I was there approx 1:30pm. She stated she could make simple lattes but nothing all that fancy from the coffee menu as cocktails are her actual specialty so I decided to go with alcoholic libations since that's what she knows how to make. One that stood out to me was called the "Figgy Fizz" which is made with a fig syrup and I was excited as for breakfast yesterday I had the best Greek yogurt I've ever had which was honey and fig flavored so I was definitely in a fig mood lol she whipped up the drink but unfortunately after she handed it to me, she let me know she couldn't find the fig syrup they put in it so she substituted that with pumpkin spice. I was kind of bummed about that and wished she would have asked me first if that substitution was okay with me or if I'd want to try something else because now it's not a "figgy fizz" but a pumpkin spice fizz but I still drank it and it was decent. I decided to try one more drink which was a pomegranate rosemary lemon drop and it was beautiful and very tasty ! It's a nice spot to have a drink, the staff is quite friendly and they have some unique flavors so i can see myself frequenting this establishment. I want to come back soon and give their coffee drinks a try when I can stop by earlier!

All of the employees and bartenders were a lot of fun and very personable. It looks like everyone working really enjoys it. So nice to see! No food, except charcuterie boxes for sale. But we were told we were welcome to bring food in. I was there with a friend for a Valentine's-themed mimosa crawl. The most popular drink special was the Love is Dead mimosa. Very cool looking and tasty. Great place for a date night, cocktail before a dinner out, or hanging with the girls. Looking forward to trying their coffee offerings in the future.
