Love the coffee here! Always has different flavor options - employee variations or just creative ones that are always tasty! Was super excited that they had a pumpkin spice cold brew option with oat milk - everywhere else is always with cows milk (I'm lactose sensitive, not just picky). No matter the location, workers are always cheerful and polite.

This gem of a hideaway just became my favorite coffee shop. They were busy! I went through the "walk-through" drive-through. Barista offered to use the scan.dot.thingie on my phone at a different till, accommodating my lack of preparation for commerce. This is how coffee should taste.

Good drinks, some yummy treats, and friendly service. This was my first time visiting the little Moka drive through (it's drive through only). It's positioned perfectly for employees and visitors to the Gunderson clinic. They've got lots of options for drink combinations. The young lady at the window greeted me with a friendly smile and helped me decide what I wanted. I will definitely be visiting again.

Today I stopped in just for a pup cup for a pup that loves your cups but unfortunately was passing away and we wanted him to have just one more pup cup. The girl at the walk up window handled our simple order amazingly. As I tried to order through tears. She made him the best pup cup ever. I was there at approximately 1130am today. She became part of our last memory of him. Thank you so much!!!
