Ladybug Coffee — Restaurant in University Place

The baristas are nice, coffee is fine, I'm not attracted to women so the whole scantily clad women thing isn't a selling point for me, (If that does it for you, the women working there are very pretty) but its such a convenient location to get coffee on my way to work in the morning.

I live across the street (hence why this location is so convenient) and whoever runs this place seriously needs to fix their security alarm. It's pretty frequent that it gets set off for at least 10 minutes once every two weeks or so. Tonight has been something extra and I will never visit this location again. The alarm has been going off for 3 hours at this point. Cops have been out twice. It's still going off. I have to work early tomorrow and I can't sleep because of this.

Look, I was a barista for over a decade. I know more than most people that having a security alarm is incredibly important. Drive through espresso stands are often targets of buglers and robbers. That being said, never in my time as a barista has there ever been a location I've worked at where the alarm doesn't alert the police, the manager, or both. I've accidentally set off the alarm at one coffee shop I worked at and within 5 minutes, the alarm company was responding and the cops were called. So 3 hours of this? Are you kidding me? I can hear this through my closed bedroom window and I'm not as close to the espresso stand as some of my other neighbors.

There are other drive through coffee shops near by that I won't list because I don't want this to come across as promoting another business. Some of them are also bikini barista shops. Please ditch this place and stop at those other places that don't ignore security alarms for hours on end. It's 1am now and the alarm is still going off. Imagine if you were a worker there who had been robbed or attacked and the only recourse you had was to set off the alarm and no one helped you. The next barista should be arriving in 3 hours. Who knows what mess she'll be walking into. I hope...

This should honestly be a ZERO STAR! The "blonde" girl working Sunday April 18th at 3:38pm is horrible. Asked for two 24oz white chocolate lattes with English toffee and cinnamon with white coffee. I got two 16oz steamed milks!! Both had lots of syrup down the sides of the cups. One had a 2 inch section from top to bottom with syrup. When I asked for a new cup I was given a second cup to use as a sleeve. I told her these were not 24oz cups and she replied I think they are. Then my wife said these are not 24oz cups and that they are 16oz cups. So she showed us a "16oz" cup, which was a 12oz cup. Come on! These are simple things you should not mess up and should definitely know the difference in sizes. Customer is not always right at this place. I couldn't get the cups apart there was so much syrup and you can clearly see the 16oz in measuring cup from the photo. BTW I was charged for the two 24oz also. Talk about a company...

I went there for a blue raspberry Italian soda, waited for a good 6 minutes for even someone to help me another car pulled up and she helped them right away, the girl there was very rude, she was making it with a red bull I wanted a blue raspberry Italian soda with cream and whip cream she said they didn't have any of the soda to make it I said ok hold on let me call me daughter as she is pregnant, my daughter decided to not get it and the rude girl said k bye and slammed the window I think that was very rude of her to do, so I went to the one in Lakewood were I usually go and was treated...
