Kopplin's Coffee Shop

Kopplin's

Environment

     Lively, friendly, warm environment. Super comfortable seating, the big tables give you a lot of space and the small tables are intimate. Well decorated, clean, trendy, the music is chill. The only issue is there isn't a surplus of seating, so if you plan on bringing a big group, take caution because there might not be enough seating for you all. 8/10

Service

    The service at Kopplins is good but not great. The barista was friendly and helpful when we asked what drink we should order.  Along with that he was very confident in his choice of drink.  Once again, we didn't get the greeting at the door we were looking for but overall we found the baristas at Kopplins to be helpful. 6/10

Drink Quality

     Froth to liquid ratio was solid. Not too bitter. Great presentation. Coffe art was stellar, best I've seen so far. We got the cappuccino, it was great, but, if you want something sweeter, don't get it. It's got great flavor for a cappuccino. Goes down so smooth. Really easy to drink fast. All in all, it's a very high quality cappuccino. 8/10

Overall: 7/10

A fun stop, really comfortable, good drinks, affordable. Big recommend to check it out.

J&S Bean Factory

Environment

    Lives up to the name of "factory". This can a good and a band thing. For me, I enjoy a homey, comfortable setting. This is more industrial. The tabletops weren't the flattest..chairs not the most comfortable...not the most spacious place.. It's different. 4/10

Service

    The best service we've had in our three stops. Finally got my welcome at the door I've been looking for. The barista really knew what he was talking about when we asked our usual question. He's experienced in coffee, he talked about trying coffee all over the west coast. He was really friendly, helpful, and good at his job. And yes, there was coffee art. 8/10

Drink Quality

     The first thing you notice when picking up your coffee at the counter is how it is presented - you find yourself holding a nice J&S mug and beautiful coffee art.  The barista suggested we try their miel latte.  We liked the flavor and the smooth taste of the coffee. Not amazing though, could be better. 6/10

Overall: 6/10

Unique and friendly! Again, if you want something different, check it out!
