Bearclaw Coffee Co. — Restaurant in Ann Arbor

Bearclaw is the most personable drive up coffee shop you can go to (and also one of the cheaper options which is insane) aaand super dog friendly! When we moved here 6 months ago, Katy was the first person we talked to, our first A2 friend 🥹AND she was kindly helpful with getting us acquainted with the area — as well as great places to take my dog. All of the baristas welcome us, and every time I leave full of positivity (and my dog feeling like a super star)! I love knowing that we’re supporting owners who care, and baristas that are amazing and work diligently. I also love that this is a historic building built in the 20s. This atmosphere is a great setup for a drive up stop. We walk and drive. If you walk, you can use the service window on the side, where there is also a small open patio.

If you come here, you will be cared for. That is always the case with us. It is also way more reasonably priced. On that note, be sure to tip! These are really good people 🤍 My dog is a good judge of character, and he told me so.

☆Recommended☆ The menu has a vast collection of flavors, including peanut butter!! 🥛☕️Iced/hot lattes, very affordable americanos 🍑🥭Fruit smoothies (the sugars glisten in the sun ☀️) and frozen lattes 🍯Ahmazing chai lattes 🫐🍪🍩 Bakery made muffins and breakfast bars 🥯Ofc bagels as well!

Their drinks are good and the Bearcats delicious, but their system is all disorganized. On multiple occasions we have waited 30+ minutes only for the servers to go to the cars that had behind us and either pulled in the other lane next to us or were actually still behind us.

Just happened today, not just with the car that came behind us, but the car that came behind them, too. I guess our car is invisible? I understand that they are understaffed, but how do you skip over a customer to the point that the two cars that came behind them left with their orders before we placed and received our order? Also, other customers, maybe do the polite thing and point out other people were here before you.

At the time of writing this, it's been 31 minutes and we still don't have our order and a 3rd car is now being assisted. We did point this out to an employee who didn't apologize, just said "We're really busy in the mornings".

We'll still come back because the only other drive-thru alternative is Starbucks and...

I am on the fundraising committee for a local nonprofit organization. Bearclaw Coffee was a food truck vendor for our fundraiser car show this past weekend and I was blown away. For starters, the employees were very kind. They were hard working and overall just sweet people. In addition, their customer service was outstanding. They greeted every guest with a smile on their face and were incredibly professional. In addition, their food truck set up was very well organized and clean. The iced coffee was amazing! Everyone at the car show loved the coffee, baked goods, and drinks provided by them. Overall, it was a 10/10 experience. I would highly recommend this business to anyone looking for great coffee or smoothies to enjoy or to other companies/organizations looking to have them at your next event! I know our organization will definitely be requesting their services for our next event! Thank you Bearclaw Coffee for everything, you...
