If you asked me a month ago if I would recommend Giddy Up Folsom I would have given it glowing reviews. I pass by the cafe every morning while making my way to work. I stopped their regularly for chai tea and the tomato spinach basil panini in which I always add turkey. Sometimes I'll pick up for coworkers and have tried their various foods and pastries. However I've noticed within the last few months that they are changing everything! The only thing staying the same is the interior design. It started with the chai tea. They changed the brand of tea that they used. It has god awful compared to the quality in which they previously served. They have put two new employees in working at the same time, in which neither of them knew very well what they were doing nor did either of them have any kind of command and control. It made the lines incredibly long. Now they're changing the bread on the panini's to some kind of bun (which does not toast up well nor taste anywhere near as good as the previous one), slicing the tomato much thinner and not putting as much turkey as before. All of the prices are going up and the quality of our food and beverages are going down. I have no problem paying a little more for my favorite tea and my favorite breakfast sandwich but I do have a problem paying more for my no longer favorite tea and breakfast sandwich when you want to turn it into trash. Hopefully they will fix things back to the way they were and I will be able to...
Read moreI’m from Portland, Oregon. My husbands parents live in Folsom and we visited them for Mardi Gras. I’m a huge coffee person and was fully expecting absolutely ZERO coffee places in their little town, but when I found Giddy Up, I was BLOWN AWAY!
This coffee is seriously so yummy, the staff is so so so friendly and talkative. This is such a hidden gem in middle-of-nowhere Louisiana, and the inside is super cute, lots of seating, and I noticed there’s options to add alcohol in your coffee or have a glass of wine or a beer!! So unique, you don’t find that a lot in PDX.
The coffee itself is really good, probably top 3 I’ve ever had. I told my husband that if we moved near his parents I would at least need a good coffee place and here it is!!
Highly recommend if you’re driving through the cute...
Read moreStopped here more than once while heading to global wildlife or visiting friends in the area. Coffee is always good, but very inconsistent. One time it is amazing, next time it wasn't, just depends on who makes it. Their large flavored lattes/cappuccinos are about $5-6 and pretty small if you're used to pjs and starbucks large sizes. Their muffins were pretty good. Service has always been good. The young girl with the sweet voice is amazing! She has been there 3 of the 6 or 7 times I've been and she makes the best coffee by far and gives the best customer service!! 4 stars! Would give 5 if the taste of the coffee was more consistent. Overall a good place and worth the little extra money to support a small business...
