I'll give four stars because the coffee is really good and the breakfast sandwiches are tasty. But after leaving a 15% tip for someone handing me a sandwich over the counter, I don't appreciate being charged for a splash of heavy cream in my coffee. I mean, the place is called the coffee emporium, why would you charge extra for cream?? The younger ladies in the cafe are friendly but the older one who prepares the food isn't that cordial, unless she knows you from being a regular. I've gone there twice at the recommendation of the front desk clerks at the DoubleTree hotel three blocks away and I haven't been greeted. It doesn't take much to say hello to a customer when they come into your place of business. t's a good thing I won't let that deter me from having a decent breakfast but it would be nice to be greeted upon walking in. I also hope they get swiss cheese back on their menu, it's so much tastier on the ham breakfast sandwich than provolone. Thank you.

This place has sure gone down hill. The coffee drink was way too sweet , I couldn’t even taste the coffee. They didn’t measure the syrup just dumped some in.
It seems dirty & run down compared to what it was years ago.

I loved going into coffee emporium everyday while working downtown. Now that I've been working from home I decided to try them on GrubHub delivery. Received my order and was kinda upset that my sandwich only included bread and a sausage patty. No cheese or egg. I called and was told that they do not offer delivery options. The order was sent to them incorrectly by GrubHub. So...first, why have you not called GrubHub to be removed? Second, we are in 2022 and delivery needs to be an option. Especially for those still working from home. Pretty disappointed.

I am only giving four stars because I don't drink coffee and I can't read it based on that. I had some delicious Earl Gray tea while I was there

Got an iced cold brew with heavy cream and sugar free caramel. It tasted like a mixture of fruity-coffee. It was not exactly my calling… Had already left and was half way gone and didn’t bother turning back for a different drink. Had to toss this $6 drink cause I couldn’t stomach it. Their website online says they have the best cold brew. Never again.

I went in again to get a Jack frost hot chocolate and it wasn't the same, the taste of my drink or the environment. I miss the old owner and staff, they remembered my name and made me feel welcome.

My girlfriend and I went here for some coffee and it turns out they have food! I got a breakfast panini and it was so good! Fresh ingredients for sure! The coffee is very good too!
Also, they have toast that you can get on its own. I love toast and this is the first place I've found that has just toast! So awesome! ❤️

Great little place, though not terribly easy to find from outside. Not a ton of places to sit, not a particularly "trendy" coffee place. But who cares? If you're just looking for a solid coffee at a fair price with good service, this place delivers. They have a number of creative "specialty" concoctions as well; I suggest the raspberry mocha. Definitely recommend this shop.

Second time in a row I’ve gotten a breakfast sandwich from them that has the wrong meat on it. I Always ask for a bacon, egg, and cheese croissant and they have given me sausage the last two times in a row. I dislike sasauge so I’ve ended up throwing both sandwiches away. What a waste of money. They even messed up my boyfriends sandwich too this time, he asked and payed for double meat on his and only got one serving. Overall very disappointed with this place recently.

There was a misunderstanding on my behalf when the shop was closed for remodeling. I left a crappy review because I didn't know. I apologize for that and would like to say they have the best coffee in town!

This coffee shop is like the Cheers Bar. You walk in and they know your name. Robin and staff are the best and their coffee & muffins rock.

The Coffee Emporium has a commitment to excellence. Robin is wonderful at trying new things. The coffee, tea, freezes, smoothies and Italian sodas are made with excellence and the food is SO good. Not only is the Coffee Emporium all of the above, it is also a wonderful working environment where the employees seek to know their customers by name. Love this place. I wish I was still close enough to go all the time. :)
