Cafe Poindexter Coffee reviews
12Coffee was not good at all. I got an ice coffee and water was added to it to avoid making more. Threw it away immediately unfortunately. Great atmosphere. Barista was a bit standoffish.
Great place to study and chill with friends. The walls are filled with real pencils. Very student friendly and cozy vibe and I was just mesmerized by the interiors. So artistic!
Bleh
Bacon egg and cheese: bun is badly burned and scrambled egg is runny.
Veggie wrap: tortilla is soggy from condensation in it's container.
Apple slaw is very heavy on the mayo. Is it just mayo, cabbage and apples?
The hotel rooms are not any better. The place looks cool but under the hood.yeet.
Great place to meet friends, enjoy some excellent coffee creations, and stare at pencils. Music is sometimes too loud, but otherwise, it's a great alternative to Starbucks and has lots of open study space (unlike Java House).
Seemed like a good place to hangout and study or have coffee for an hour or two. The coffee drinks were pretty good, but the food was really not. The breakfast sandwiches are flavorless and mushy and way over priced.
Super cool place with an awesome vibe, very cozy and clean. Unfortunately the WiFi connection is beyond useless. Wouldn’t be a bad spot to hang out with some friends for coffee, but if you’re looking to work or study this is a poor choice.
After ordering a breakfast sandwich, then waiting 20 minutes for said sandwich, it was given to me without bread. Not much of a breakfast sandwich for such a long wait (despite not being busy) if you want my opinion.
Until I ordered a Mocha here, I thought I knew what Mocha was. My only regret is that this place is 2 hours away and can not be a regular stop for me. It will be on my must visit list for when I come to town again.
Perfect study/meeting spot! I usually get a latte here, which is always delicious. They’re chairs are very comfortable and there’s plenty of tables even during peak times. Prices are comparable to other coffee shops in the area. Probably one of the best coffee shops in town!
In love with this little gem. Staff is super friendly, coffee and breakfast are delightful, and they now got kombucha on tap! Try it out!
Fun coffee shop with unique decor. Food was tasty - get the egg sandwich. However, asked for orange juice and it was $8! I couldn’t believe it. The music was also very loud for a coffee shop I could hear the people who were sitting at the same table as me.
Great cold brew and a cool place, great to hang and study! Two things missing / easy recommendations and fixes.
First, there is a ton of space up front, should have a ton of snacks for sale like Starbucks and Java do. (Popcorn, Chips, Jerky, Bars.etc), will also act as snack shop for the hotel. AND, students like me who study here will probably buy a snack with my drink, outside of the menu items.
Second, there are only three types of tea, all pretty plain, get some better flavors! Shouldn't be too hard to keep a few more flavors in stock, mint, passion fruit.etc, not just green and black. And, $4 for a tea is a bit much.another note, carry stevia sweetener, it's 2018!
Seems like some easy and low risk / high reward fixes to me that will bring in more customers / increase sales, as well as make more customers like me happy. Looking forward to hopefully seeing some of these changes.
