The Mug Community Coffee Shop, Inc. — Restaurant in Fresno

SO i love that they have done events, but I don't think they are prepared to do so. I recently attended the acoustic concert at Yellow mug. I was excited to give them another chance

Here is the problem

The event started at 6 per tickets We arrived at 530, we were like 8 or so in line and waited...outside in line, in the sun, in the over 100 weather They informed us we would be let in at 545 They sold special drinks for this event, they were advertising outside but only took cash orders. they did not let us in until 555 or so, those ten minutes made a big difference

They then only sold the drinks for a few more minutes inside, then about 10 minutes before he actually came out, they said they could no longer make any drinks, because the show was going to start...

I understand that...but if you are going to do that, then let us in early enough so we can order these drinks you have created especially for the show

it just makes me disappointed, i had so much hope for this place and I am still...

I wanted to give this place a second chance before making a review. The first time i went It took nearly 45 min to get my food, it was not busy at all. Once they brought our food out they apologized because they had to make more pancake batter. I understand making batter takes some time but not 45 min… meanwhile i sipped on my coffee, the coffee was far too sweet and i ended up tossing it. The food was decent but quite overpriced. I went to the restroom in the back and I basically walked into their pantry that was very unorganized. I went again today to give them a second chance since the food itself was decent. But was surprised when i was told that the cook was going on break and there would be no one that could make breakfast … how does that make sense. I ended up leaving & going elsewhere and i dont think i can give them another...

This small clean independent coffeehouse is what such locations should all aspire to be. Although somewhat costly it isnt in any way outside the price range of such establishments. And for that price the locations presents a simple clean aesthetic, friendly owner and barista, and a selection of snacks and baked goods. And, of course, quality coffee and espresso. The espresso is particularly worth nothing because while it will always have some bitter and acid notes controlling these and balancing with the rich coffee flavor requires control of bean, grind, and settings of the machine all. And I am very glad to report that this establishment provides a solid espresso experiance for those who care about that. Even for those simply seeking an iced coffee the friendly environment and selection of baked goods will probably make it...
