Crave Coffee & Tea

Great coffee and good breakfast bagels made anyway you want

Good nitro and I like the bagel options. Blueberry muffin hits different.

I've been a loyal patron of Crave for about four years now, visiting almost every Friday for my usual order: a Nitro accompanied by a bagel topped with cream cheese, avocado, and tomato. However, over my last few visits, I've noticed a recurring issue – missing cream cheese. Given that I usually order to-go and only realize the omission once I'm on my way to work, it's been quite frustrating. During my recent visits, I've made a point to check my order at the counter, only to find, yet again, no cream cheese on my bagel. Politely, I brought it up to one of the female baristas, expecting a completed order. However, despite her acknowledgment, she simply handed me a small tub of cream cheese and called my order ready. When I questioned why it wasn't applied to the bagel as requested, she seemed irritated, suggesting that making a new bagel would be too much trouble. Feeling somewhat exasperated by the exchange, I expressed my disappointment and left without further confrontation. As a frequent customer who visits at least once or twice a week, tipping generously and always treating the staff with respect, I felt disregarded and undervalued. It's disheartening to receive such treatment, especially given my consistent patronage and courteous demeanor. Regrettably, after this experience, I've decided to explore other coffee options. While I've enjoyed Crave in the past, the inconsistency in service, particularly when the head barista isn't present, has led me to seek out a new spot. It's a shame, as I genuinely appreciated the atmosphere and offerings at Crave. Here's to hoping for better experiences elsewhere. Cheers,

I was greeted with a perfunctory welcome. Took a quick look around the place to get my bearings, then approached the counter. I was not greeted, so I spoke first. Explaining it was my first time here, I asked for a recommendation. The young lady recommended the white mocha as a sweet option, and vanilla lavender or honey cinnamon as more unusual offerings. I opted for the white mocha, which may be the best I’ve ever had. I forgot I needed a little breakfast, so I asked the same young lady for a bear claw. It’s very good, but actually has blueberry and cream inside. So a bit unusual. In my interactions with the server, she was helpful, but not especially polite or friendly. She seemed impatient. Perhaps they warm up to repeat customers, but as a newcomer, I didn’t feel especially welcome. I did find the coffee beans I was after, but I likely won’t be back if I’m just looking for coffee on the go.

I made a mobile order at 11am, came inside at about 1115. At 1125 I overheard them said there a mobile order but take your time. It wasn’t until I came up to the counter and asked where my coffee was that they started making it. I didn’t leave until 1140+ . Highly recommend just ordering from the counter. Dietary restrictions: They did offer different milk options which was very nice.

So yum! And everyone is so kind. Barista even put a beautiful heart in my latte. So needed that!

Seems pretty laid back when you walk in. The staff was busy filling some large orders when we walked in but acknowledged us and let us know they just got buried. The coffee was great. Update: Everything above still stands. Wasn't as busy today and it waent quick.

Got the build a bagel and it definitely didn’t disappoint. Great tasting soft bagel
