T.A.N. Coffee - Kentville — Restaurant in Town of Kentville

I have to agree with the reviews about how rude or unwelcoming the staff are in this cafe. From order to coffee being made, you are made to feel as if you’re inconveniencing them. For some weird reason I tipped them a few bucks and was treated so poorly. The barista seemed disinterested and defiant of his job. The cashier was hostile and seemed upset. Anyhow, this was over a number of visits so it wasn’t just a one-off. Other posters complained about the lack ambiance or cold atmosphere and they are spot on. You feel like you want to leave as soon as possible which could be the cold staff but it’s also the cold decor. The cafe a few doors down is much more warm and welcoming. Their staff seem to actually like their customers, old and new. *edited response to the owner: Hi there, my family and I were there in the Kentville location on Saturday afternoon. You may want to review or train your staff. It may also come down to personality. Serving coffee to the public may not be their domain or perhaps it’s not a value of the establishment. Either way we found what we needed at the Half Acres Cafe, so rather than whine and cry about the service I didn’t get at your cafe, I’ll save my time and just go there. Thanks anyhow but perhaps you should filter your staff at the interview process and ensure they enjoy working with people...

The coffee shop is frequently visited by local artists whose artwork is available for purchase. I asked another customer to open the door for me so I could access the space. Today, there was a welcoming group of people and a local musician playing in the corner. I enjoy the pre made vegan wraps, although they can get a little soggy after sitting for a few hours. The T.A.N Coffee team has a pretty awesome menu of hot beverages available. The washroom is large enough on the inside, so I was able to gain access, and there was enough room for my assistant. The site did not have any push-button access for independence. This is typical of this area's restaurants and coffee shops. I give it a 4 out of 5 for access issues, they have some...

Tiny portions of cake and undefinable "coffee macciato". This is usually made in a tall glass (international) and you should be able to clearly see the different layers of milk and coffee on top of each other. That's actually basic and in a restaurant that calls itself "coffee", it should actually be able to be prepared in a traditional way. Mine was simply made in a small cup with lots of milk froth. It was something else, just not what I ordered.... It also had a rather bitter, strange taste and had nothing to do with a "coffee macciato". Only the value for...
