I like Coffee. A LOT. And I like Caribou better than Starbucks Pike place blend. I like shorter lines at Caribou and the slightly less pretentious feel of it. Having said that, the Hastings Way Caribou has steadily declined over the past 6 months. They never seem to have the food I want, and it seems slower at the drive through. When I want food I either take the extra couple of minutes to go to the coffee grounds or wait at Starbucks (drive thru). My favorite thing was always the trivia- not that I need the 10 cents, it was just fun. They still have it, but trivia questions are now all aimed at educating me about Caribou products, which I dont care too much about and have no shot at ever knowing (example: how many grams of caffeine in an 8oz cup of our spring blend? A: dont know because I dont work at Caribou. Since I add the 10 cents to the tip, it just cost YOU 10 cents).

Coffee is as good as it gets for a chain coffee shops, local fresh made roasters and shops will always be better. The atmosphere is perfect for those wanting to siphon some free wifi while they distract themselves from doing the work they actually came to do. The food is surprisingly not bad considering it is all pre packaged and tossed together quickly, however its outrageously expensive for portion and quality. The coffee isnt as overpriced as other chain coffee shops however its a little costly for their quality. The only real issue in had was the service, not to be confused with the employees. Multiple times I or someone else was at the counter we had to wait whole the employees chatted to themselves and were suddenly shocked to see a customer even after trying to get their attention. However once noticed they were extremely honest and kind.

i am a very loyal caribou customer, and to start the experience off today, i ordered a iced vanilla white mocha and a chicken apple sausage sandwich. i receive my drink served hot. I politely asked if this was mine, and she replied with "yeah" and then i explained t her i had ordered this iced. She then apologized and i returned to my seat to eat my sandwich. My name was then called again, this time they present me with a iced reddish drink. I returned to my seat thinking this was indeed a vanilla iced white mocha. It wasnt. I then had to return to the counter and explain again what exactly i had ordered. when they called my name the final time, they correctly made this drink. The girl was not polite about it the final time though, acting as if I was a nuisance or trouble. All i wanted was the drink i correctly ordered at the beginning.

This place serves the best coffee around. I have always enjoyed the atmosphere of small ma and pa shops. This one is cozy but just isnt the same. However, the quality of the coffee and staff make up for it. I usually get coffee in the drive thru and hardly if ever is it backed up. Even when it is, the wait time is short.

One of the better Caribous Ive been too. The seating is good, with the coffee just as good. The drive thru is quick and has enough stacking, more than most locations. They have enough of parking spaces, even when its busy.

Pretty standard, though the employees here were more interested in chatting about Netflix than actually preparing my drink. Person who ordered after me was served first and all I ordered was a crafted press!

Just another high priced coffee place. Admittedly...I like it better than Starbucks. Happy to support a company that is based out of our region as well (Minneapolis).

A modern coffee shop for work or getting together with a friend! Excellent service and tasty products! There are plenty of options for non-coffee drinkers, too!

Mint Condition drinks are a cut above Starbucks. Their sandwiches are wonderful as well. Turkey Pesto is my fav.

Long drive thru wait. Likely due to cold day for the city wide sales though.
