Avid coffee, a change from acre coffee with the same atmosphere and location. Smells delightful from the street. Open seating,outdoor and patio seats with a thrown wide open store front is an opening and welcoming coffee shop and feel. Nice stop if you're walking your dog and don't want to bother other patrons but still want to stop and sit.

I like to go local, but I just don’t like their coffee. I think it is over roasted to the point of being burnt. No subtle yummy flavors, just slap you in the face bitterness.I have been 3 times, and will try a few more, switching g up to caps, or americanos just to see. But so far this is a C+ at best (would have given even lower but it is a cool place, good location and nice people).

Amazing drinks and some gluten free pastries and breakfast items available!

Wonderful coffee and a really neat spot to enjoy it. Always a little gathering here, usually with some pups outside. Great and friendly service.

Great coffee but needs to have sugar free sweetners for their iced coffees

I’ve been getting coffee here since 2011 when they opened. The quality of coffee and selection of other drinks has gone downhill recently to the point I have stopped going.

Great coffee. A lot of good options for breakfast. Lovely environment!

The coffee was excellent. However, I have a dairy allergy and am sensitive to very small amounts of cow milk. I became very ill after ordering an oat milk latte so I think they are probably mixing spoons, wands, etc.

Great coffee and food. Everything tasted good. Friendly staff that were trying their best to get orders out in a timely manner. But, I would not recommend going on a Saturday morning and expect to spend less than 45 minutes just waiting. Obviously it's a very popular coffee shop and the wait for my drink seemed reasonable based on the number of people in line. However, I wish there was better communication about the time it takes to get your food. Would it be possible to have the register person remind customers before they order, that food will take extra time? That way they could make an informed decision about whether to order food or not. From the time I ordered to when I actually received my food it took 30 minutes, while the coffee was ready in 10 minutes. The other issue seems to be the online orders. It just doesn't seem like they have the staff to deal with such a high volume on a busy Saturday, and the online orders seemed to make it worse. I love Avid Coffee, but if you go on a Saturday morning around 8am, don't expect a "quick bite".

Way too slow for a Monday morning coffee stop. Equal opportunity employer.
