First time to the latte stand they were very sweet and the latte was perfect
I have visited this location a few times and there is ALWAYS and long wait. However, just to be fair, I decided to give them another try, but this is what I encountered on my last visit. It was a Sunday morning, little to no traffic and I pulled up behind a white, 2dr, BMW. She appeared to be pretty comfortable sitting there because her left foot was on the dashboard of her vehicle while she chatted with the barista. Out of curiosity, I started the timer on my phone just to see how long it would take to get through the line. 8 minutes had elapsed and the car I front of me was still there and both ladies just chatting and laughing...clearly I was not. Periodically, I would see the barista's head pop out of the window as she said something. As I grew more impatient I noticed 3 cars on the otherside went through rather quickly. This was a clear indication that my little 5 to 7 dollar drink was not important, so I backed out and left, this was about 3 weeks ago. Before leaving I thought about honking my horn, or stepping out of my vehicle to talk to the barista's, but at this point I'm sure they realize a friendly chat has gone overboard, but no one really seemed to care, right? They are not the owners. I've learned over the years never complain to the workers because change will never happen...go to the owners because they have more at stake. I don't understand why you wouldn't send someone outside and get the next person's order to speed up the process or do something to speed up the process. After my last encounter I have vowed to spend my money elsewhere, and I have informed my daughter to do the same. It should not take 10 minutes to get a drink of any kind. Systems and processes should be in place to minimize or alleviate long waits and lines.
I go here for their iced dirty chai. I prefer the powdered spiced chai and this is one of the few coffee stands in the area I can find it at.
I have been a customer of this business for many many years. I have consistently been treated with kindness, generosity, and an authentic interest in my approval of their product.The employees who have been there for an extended period of time actually know what product I will order without me telling them. They recognize me by my car and my face, and they were also accommodating to my communication challenges due to a hearing impairment, so they were always kind and hospitable in lowering their mask so that I was able to communicate, preserving my basic human dignity.Employees who have not been there long enough to already be familiar with me, not that it is an expectation as it is not, are also consistently and authentically kind, interested, and preserving of basic human dignity.It is now and always has been an utmost delight doing business with Avenue Espresso and I am greatly relieved that they survived the last two years in which so many businesses were closed permanently.
Very nice people, always happy. Although if someone is waiting on food you will have a bit of a wait.
