Most of these reviews are over a year ago or 3-5 years ago. So, I decided to go there for a more recent experince. And, I've realized that these workers do try to give customers the best they can, by serving coffee, bakery goods or even cookies. There customer services are top-tier when they try to correct their wrongs and even take special requests for anybody that doesn't like or wants something extra with their coffee/drink.
Although, some of the reviews below mine can be very similar to what I describe, you cannot base what the business has going on inside the Fred Meyer store. Their services can be based on a 8.5 /10 for dealing with customers. And, 7/10 for drink making (lowest possibility of 6.2/10 since over roasting does happen).

What happened to that little bit of extra effort in customer service? They walked out at 7:20 as it was, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have impacted...
Read moreI don’t understand how people get away with such sad costumer service. I walked in this evening, no one else was there. I stood in front of the register and waited for one of the girls to just acknowledge that I was standing there. I made eye contact with both and neither said anything at all. They continued to avoid me until I asked if they were open. They said yes. Still they continued to do as they were. So I asked if It’d be ok if I ordered. At this point I was a bother... you could sense the tension. (I’m not exaggerating) When receiving my change the girl drops it in my hands. The other makes my drinks, then puts them on the counter as if she was the one that had reason to be...
