Sad Donkey Coffee — Restaurant in Williston

September 2022 update: Better than last time. They were open and ready for business! I've stopped by a few times between my last review and today's and they were closed during business hours. C'est la vie. So! I ordered from a very cool barista with melon orange hair, and she knew how to make everything tasty. Large iced coffee with a splash of milk, SF vanilla, pumpkin cold foam. It was perfect, albeit their cold brew could be a more bold (not everyone sits on the fringe of society like I do when it comes to dark roasts). I'll update from 2 to 4 stars. Because while the service was 5 ⭐, the cold brew really should be created in, and stored, in a glass carafe to maintain the bold crisp flavor.

March 2022: I was really looking forward to having a good cup of coffee here, and did. I ordered an iced latte with sugar free vanilla. The iced coffee was in a plastic jug from the refrigerator. That's when I should have walked away. I was expecting it to be fresh, or somewhat, maybe not from the bottom of the Rubbermaid jug. It was stale and silty. Watery. The coffee hit my guts like a ton of bricks. I had to run to the bathroom. I am an avid coffee drinker and coffee brewer (gravity fed brewer and siphons). I like to chew my coffee, this was just bad.

Interactions: The barista was underwhelmingly there.

Price: Meh, $4.50 for a large.

I will give this place a second go, but will order something hot. Perhaps it would be better? Until...

A Hidden Gem!

Sad Donkey Coffee is a delightful spot with a cozy atmosphere and some of the best coffee in town. The Service is amazing, and the quality of their drinks is consistently top-notch. I love how they manage to create a perfect balance of flavors in every cup, whether it's a classic brew or a specialty drink.

The ambiance is perfect for both working and relaxing, with plenty of comfortable seating and a laid-back vibe. Their pastries and snacks are also delicious and pair perfectly with their coffee.

My only wish is that they could stay open longer! It would be great to enjoy their wonderful offerings later into the evening.

Highly recommend Sad Donkey Coffee to anyone looking for a quality...

Everything was fantastic from start to finish! The atmosphere is adorable. The barista was excellent, she was very good with my children, even though we spilled a hot chocolate on the floor (which was my fault). The area is clean and well taken care of. The little houses are adorable and there’s seating outside if you wanna stay to have your coffee. I ordered a cookie butter and caramel macchiato, which was outstanding! And my children wanted to give the hot chocolate 10 stars but sadly, Google only...
