Can't believe I haven't been here before!
The staff were great, friendly, and helpful. The menu seems very simple yet rather confusing. I think its because we have been groomed to seeing so many different drink options with other places.
I'd like to say these folks are true baristas in the sense that you could probably explain a flavor you're craving and they'd probably be able to nail it. I feel I can have that confidence with this store.
So glad I made it for a Yelp Event and was able to try this place out to see what they got.
The layout is nice and open. Doesn't smell like spoiled milk, wasn't loud and overwhelming. Didn't feel like I was surrounded by a FOMO situation with products they offer to sell.
The menu is a bit set back at a distance for me and I couldn't read the menu since I forgot my glasses...but refer back to what I said about explaining a flavor you're wanting and WHAMMO! They listen, specify, and execute!
Stars are meant to be seen and not caught...just like bucks are meant to be saved and not wasted...head to The Woods and find...
Read moreI am a HUGE woods coffee fan. And I was so excited they were located in Bothell, which is close to my home. I had seen their meeting rooms in Skagit County and Whatcom County and knew it would be a perfect spot to hold a retreat for my son and his confirmation sponsor. I reserved the "meeting room" at their Bothell location and walked in to the shocking realization that it wasn't a meeting room AT ALL. It was a long table in the middle of the room. The language on their website needs to be changed to reflect reality, perhaps "Reserved Table" may have been a better choice of words? I immediately called the Hilton Garden Inn down the road and they were so gracious and offered us their library and free coffee. Just a heads up, if you are looking for a Meeting Room in a coffee house, try Mixed Community Coffee in Mill Creek. Their table is in a separate space with a closing door. Come to this Woods for the coffee,...
Read moreCoffee is definitely good or acceptable. However, the staff/service is hit or miss. Today, unfortunately, for me, the service was definitely, most assuredly, by anyone's measure a miss. The young lady working the front counter I could have cut her contempt and annoyance with my fiance and I with a knife. We didn't exactly know what we wanted, we're relatively new to the menu, but it definitely wasn't rush hour. Maybe assist us instead of casting daggers by looking down your nose and sighing?
Look, not everyone loves their low wage job, I get that, I really do, but damn, the coffee is expensive enough, I don't feel like paying extra in poor customer service attitude is what we need to be doing. The owner/manager may want to address that. I'm less likely to patron the store and brand as a whole if this is repeated. many Starbucks and Mercury's, Cafe Ladro, Becca's very nearby. Just saying. A simple smile...
