Caribou Coffee — Restaurant in Athens-Clarke County Unified Government

This past Friday was my very first time trying Caribou Coffee and let me just say, I’m hooked! I had always passed by but never stopped until the Starbucks line was way too long (30 minutes for coffee? No thanks). I decided to give Caribou a try, and wow, I’m so glad I did.

From the start, the drive-thru experience was amazing. The person at the speaker was super nice and welcoming, which already gave me a good feeling. I ordered an iced white mocha with pumpkin cold foam and caramel (10/10 recommend!). When I got to the window, the barista mentioned how good my drink sounded, and when I told him it was my first time there, he asked where I usually get coffee and what I like. He even told me about their perks rewards program, gave me a card to sign up, and said if I didn’t like the drink, he’d personally buy me another one next time. He encouraged me to try it before I left and Y’ALLLL… Starbucks who??? It was amazing.

I actually went back again this morning because the coffee was THAT good. Once again, customer service was top-notch—a sweet girl asked me about my weekend plans and made me feel like more than just another customer.

Caribou isn’t just serving incredible coffee it’s the friendly atmosphere and people that make it special. Dunkin’ and Starbucks could neverrrr.

The iced Americano was AMAZING. The barista really understood the assignment when I described that I liked it a little extra sweet. They have a variety of sizes. This is my new favorite place to pick up an iced Americano. I will be back again this weekend with my husband who is excited to try it out. Staff was super...

I was so excited for this location to open, and I’ve been 3 times during their opening week because the service is top notch and the drinks are delicious!! This has been my first time trying Caribou Coffee and I’m such a big fan now. Every employee who greeted me was so kind and went above and beyond to make sure I had a great experience. I placed mobile orders each time and they were always ready to go when I arrived. I can’t wait to keep returning and trying...
