Small coffee shop in downtown Corvallis with some outdoor seating, but there is plenty of places to roam nearby if you want both a walk and a drink. There is street parking nearby as well as a parking lot, 2 hour maximum. Ended up getting a cortado. I wasn't expecting it to be bitter at first so that was surprising at first. But definitely would highly recommend! It was like a really good dark chocolate in terms of complexity and of flavor. Service was friendly and fast. Definitely will have to come back for some more caffeine! read more

Red eye (2 shots of espresso with house coffee). Tastes similar to Blue Bottle Coffee, kind of on the sour side (see definition via Google below). The business appeared clean, not at all busy except for one couple seated outside, and friendly service. They have several types of whole beans in bags for purchase with hints of fruit. Question: Why do some coffee roasts taste sour? Answer from Trade Coffee website: Primary reasons for sour-tasting coffee is under-extraction, or not removing enough of the flavor compounds from the coffee grounds during the brewing process. Answer from espro.com: Sour coffee is often the result of a short brew time, leaving the sweet flavors not fully extracted from the bean. Increasing the brew time will allow all of the tasty flavor compounds to be extracted into your drink. read more

Tried & True Coffee - Red eye (two shots of espresso with house coffee) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Corvallis, Oregon

Coffee and service are great but they need to train baristas how to steam foam. I have been twice in the past month and ordered a dry cappuccino. Got a latte both times. This last time the 6 oz cup was only 1/2 full & still hot milk. read more

Great double espresso. Served with a smile. Helpful with coffee ideas and choices. Awesome awesomeness in this place

Coffee was good. I was eating at the place Next door and decided to get up from my table and walk over here to get some coffee. They took almost 20 minutes which I was part way through my meal. Quality was good, but speed was slow. Given it was a semi busy day. read more

Tried & True Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Corvallis, Oregon

Cute place and really good drinks with nice staff. But I would never get the muffins omg they were so dense and dry

I've gone here many times when passing through Corvallis. A great place for an espresso or latte and to buy beans. The staff is always very friendly and the coffee is always excellent. When the weather is nice there is outdoor seating (or at least there was before and during the pandemic). I've only been once since the height of the pandemic, and can say they were still great. But the inside seating is quite limited currently. I've purchased beans here quite a few times, and am always happy with what I get. read more

i went with my friend here on a bustling saturday afternoon after seeing so many great reviews and a crowd inside of the cafe. upon first entrance, we found that the cafe was quite small and had a comforting / nature vibe. it's not a place to sit down and drink, but the seating is accommodated by outdoor tables. i got the 16 oz iced mocha with whole milk, and my friend 16 oz iced mocha with caramel. the bendy straws were a plus! the service was phenomenal but the drinks themselves were a bit underwhelming- not had though! 6/10. (update an hour later: coffee taste has bumped up to a 6.89/10).they were yummy, but it felt like the drinks were lacking the coffee taste that our palettes were looking for. we saw a lot of customers there order hot drinks, so maybe the next time we come here, we will do that instead! read more

Excellent coffee, very morose employees. Every time I'm in there, the vibe is just miserable. Mostly silent, no pleasantries, no smiles, and hardly a hello or a thank you. Not sure what's up with that, but I keep coming back because it's near the hotel I'm always at. I hope you can all be happy one day!! You deserve it. read more

Tried & True Coffee - Oat milk latte with bamboo straws and a cheddar scallion scone - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Corvallis, Oregon

Guys there are always nice and efficient. Coffee is good. Breakfast wraps are never consistent though. Sometimes we get a nice sized one, sometimes a really small one, and sometimes it's assembled really well and sometimes it seems like they were too much in a hurry? Overall it's still a place I will come back to. The location is pretty sweet too. Right on the water. read more

Great place to have a coffee! Tried the Mocha cold coffee! It had a great taste and perfect amount of ice. Most places put so much ice so they wouldn't have to put too much coffee. They also have a selection of cakes to choose from, there are seats inside and outside. read more

Good coffee that's expertly made by friendly folks. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Corvallis.

Cute clean coffee spot in downtown Corvallis. Couple of Tables outside. Fast wifi. They have GF scones which were delicious. Also really good local kombucha from Eugene in addition to great coffee/hot drinks. Small/limited indoor seating and bathroom is shared with building. If you are into alternative milks (like me), I will note that all of their alt milks are pacific brand. There is some room for improvement there. Though they do roast their own beans and that's awesome! read more

Could be 4 stars if they learn to follow the customer order. Everything bagel ended up plain. Extra hot latte ended up luke warm. And to go breakfast items had running egg and oil all splattered on them, making them inappropriate for hand consumption. This might be one of the better places in Corvalis, but we'll be looking harder elsewhere next time. Ambience is awesome. Definitely 4 stars there. But ultimately it's the product that matters. read more

Tried & True Coffee - Not edible with your bare hands unless you plan to pig out. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Corvallis, Oregon

Great little coffee shop. I came by in the morning before work and found it with moderate traffic. There's a lot of seating for how small the place is. I ordered a mocha with oat milk. (Alternatives include oat/almond/soy/coconut). The cinnamon buns looked appealing but I really didn't deserve one. As I say and waited for my drink I found the mellow indie playlist perfect for reading a book. My drink took a little over 5 minutes, and with a single barista working the entire store it felt pretty fast. Enjoyed the mocha, I'll definitely be back. read more

First off, uber friendly baristas. Had a five minute talk about Oregon surf spots while waiting for my coffee to be made. Very high quality coffee and decent prices. Love the interior. Clean lines. Inviting place to relax. read more

The ambiance is good and the staff is nice. However I am a matcha drinker and if you are too this place is not it. The matcha latte was clumpy and quite watered down. There also isn't very many flavors to add in if that's something you like. Overall there's better places for matcha in Corvallis. read more

I saw the Tried and True stand at the OSU triathlon and had some of their coffee at the triathlon. IT WAS SO GOOD! I went to the cafe today and got an oat milk latte - delicious. Coffee taste came through the milk wonderfully - obviously an expert barista at the helm :-) Thanks Tried and True - my new fav. read more

Both Corvallis locations are adorable!! Staff are very friendly and welcoming. I've had their oat milk latte and black iced tea, both were wonderful. read more

Tried & True Coffee - Oat milk latte on the patio in downtown Corvallis. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Corvallis, Oregon

I got a Latte... it had a bad taste and was burnt. Also do not like the pressuring register option to tip for making a simple coffee (thanks square...). Will not be going back to pay for an overpriced latte. The store is also claustrophobic. Imported donut (sugar) boxes were left on the bar section and not "dealt with". Not a good look for the customer. Besides burning coffee, they need to tidy up. read more

Tried & True Coffee - Small Latte (burnt) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Corvallis, Oregon

One of the few local places with great, real coffee! Staff is friendly and the indoor seating is very cute.

This is a great spot in Corvallis to grab coffee! If you want a spot to sit with a book and a cup of good coffee, come here! Both locations are beautiful inside and out. You can tell that this company puts in a lot of effort and heart into their products. They seem to be very active in the Corvallis community and Corvallis loves them too. My favorite drink is a latte with their organic hazelnut flavoring! read more

Very cute coffee place! Came during COVID and they are still open and have seating set up outside which is very pleasant during the weekend. Got a mocha and tried their brownie cupcake. Really yummy! Very sugary though FYI. Pricey for a coffee shop, but would stop by again if I was nearby. read more

Without question Tried & True is the best place in town for exceptional drip coffee. Medium roasts that taste great black.

Coffee tasted burned and is way overpriced. The service wasn't good either barista seemed to not like her job and was not pleasant,

This coffee was delicious! Perfectly brewed! I had the Carmel mocha and a biscotti that was so yummy! The people were friendly. Highly recommend read more

Best coffee shop in Corvallis. I always order the same thing, iced brown sugar breve. It's always consistent and exactly how I want. Super quick service. The workers are always so friendly and make it a great experience. I normally just go through the drive through, but recently checked inside out and it's such a cute and trendy shop. read more

I wish this cafe could be cloned in Boston. A perfectly dreamy romantic cafe. Their lattes and cortados are rich, smoky, and delicious. I loved the ribbons, clean lines, and white walls. For people who eat doughnuts, they had a maple sour cream old fashioned one that looked terrific. A great way to spend a relaxing coffee date with one's love. read more

I was going to get a coffee today, but the barista inside behind the counter didn't have a mask on. I waited outside for a while. They were open, the employee was just working with food with no mask like it was any other time. But we're in the height of Covid. Is Tried & True Coffee exempt from the facts of epidemiology? read more

Big fan of the people over at Tried and True. Great customer service, high quality coffee, and a great atmosphere. My only fault, and I'm not knocking a star for it as I it's just a friendly suggestion, but I love to study at the downtown location and I wish I was open just a tad later :) read more

I'm so thankful this shop opened in the Corvallis community. There's nothing else like it in the area. I really appreciate the aesthetic and the vibe of the atmosphere. It's obvious they strive for excellence. The espresso is solid. They have the Fetco dialed in for drip. They always have their bombardier blend available for espresso or drip and they cycle through different single origins on drip and espresso. They do offer Cemex, V60, and Aeropress. But don't ask for it if it's busy. Space is limited, so it's difficult for the baristas to have enough room for slow brew at peak hours. This is my main request--expansion! They roast their own beans under their company Bespoken Coffee Roasters. read more

My go to coffee shop when I'm not working in m own. The staff at both locations are so warm and welcoming. I've built relationships with all of them and they are such a caring bunch. Happy to have these guys as my neighbors! read more

First off the atmosphere is charming and inviting. The service was wonderful but ultimately the coffee was one of the best. Definitely will come back again read more

Best foam on a cappuccino we've had. Hands down dope microfoam. Went back for another and it fell short of the first, but still great coffee in a cute building! read more

Amazing cafe with amazing staff! Very warm and friendly vibe:) 100% would recommend. My favorite coffee shop in Corvallis for sure.

Truly awful coffee burnt beans, no signature drinks and they can't do blended drinks.

The best coffee in town, because it's a lighter roast. After Tried and True's product, some of the competitor's product taste overdone, kind of charred, to me. Plus it's a sweet warm little place to duck into (well that was pre-pandemic), but I'm sure that will be back to normal if the business survives. read more
