Jolt Drive Thru Coffee New Braunfels — Restaurant in New Braunfels

UPDATE- this used to be my favorite spot in New Braunfels. Recently I went in and was told they no longer serve black coffee- not iced, not hot, nothing. Apparently their coffee maker broke but they are not planning to fix it?! I’m sorry, but I cannot understand how a coffee shop doesn’t serve regular coffee. I will sadly not be frequenting this establishment anymore.

FAVE coffee spot in New Braunfels. My husband and I are coffee snobs and we went on the lookout for some great brew. This place ticked all our boxes. Truthfully, our favorite drink is BLACK iced coffee. Yes, I said black. The quality is wonderful and we’ve continued to go back. Second favorite drink is an oat milk latte, highly recommend. The staff are always incredibly friendly. We’ve also gotten in the habit of taking our dog with us for the highly anticipated “pup cup” which is a little cup of whip cream with a dog treat! Be sure to grab a punch card for your free drink. Tuesday’s they offer ‘Two Punch Tuesday’ you get 2 for 1 punches so we always stop by. Such...

I’ve been to Jolt plenty of times, but it was a first at this specific location. 10/10 would recommend. The server at the window (seriously wish I remembered her name) was phenomenal. She was friendly, funny, super personable. She also made a great recommendation. My sister used to work at Starbucks, so she always made or ordered my drinks just based on what she knew I liked, but I wanted to try something a little different. The girl at the window listened to what I liked, and what I didn’t like, or couldn’t have due to being allergic, and recommended a coffee. Now I’m so skeptical about trying new things - picky person - but she really sold me on it… and it was absolutely amazing. I’m just going to let them start making recommendations to me and going with it, if that’s the outcome every time. The service was great, the recommendations were great. This location will be my new go to spot, even if it is a little more out of the way than...

I recently visited Jolt and, unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfying. The coffee tasted no better than a cup of Folgers, lacking the richness and depth you'd expect from a specialty shop. On top of that, they charged an extra $0.75 just to reduce the amount of ice in my drink, which felt unreasonable.

I also ordered three smoothies, hoping for a refreshing treat, but what I received was disappointing. The smoothies were nothing more than syrups mixed with ice and water—no real fruit, no creaminess, just a watery, artificial-tasting mess.

Despite all this, I still left a tip, hoping it might make a difference. But in the end, I left feeling ripped off and unsatisfied. I won’t be returning to this place...
