Very disappointed today. This is probably the 9th or 10th time that I’ve come here, and I always look forward to having a gluten-free treat and a good cup of coffee here when I’m in town. I usually have to wait, but I don’t mind doing so for fresh coffee. This afternoon I came in, asked the young lady for an iced coffee, and within 30 seconds she had handed me a cup of cool pale beige liquid with no ice and very little coffee in evidence. I added lots of milk and simple syrup to the cup and requested some ice, but I think I’m headed to McDonalds for coffee now. The gf donut was good. **Update: the owner (or manager?) did reach out in response to a direct message I sent. He explained to me that this is how they make their “iced coffee.” He encouraged me to be very clear with the baristas about what I want so that they can make me something better suited to my preferences. He was very apologetic and listened well. Based on his response and my previous experiences, I’m changing my rating from 2 stars to 4. I’ll give them another try today.
