Cruisin Coffee Nob Hill — Restaurant in Yakima

They have really great coffee here. My only issue occurred one evening about fifteen minutes prior to their posted time of closing. There was quite a late night rush with a line that stretched to the street. I approached slowly as there was no need to rush. I noticed a young lady, obviously an employee, carrying a road cone and placed it behind the car in front of me. I was annoyed because I am certain she could clearly see my blinker and it was obvious I had planned to enter the long line to her establishment. However, I had not quite rolled the remaining twenty or so feet to secure my place in line. I would have been content quenching for my late night caffeine thirst elsewhere but roommate was not in as much of an appeasing mood. Insisting I ignore the cone and maneuver around, reclaiming our rightful place in line. After all we did travel to this exact location based on the hours they had posted on google. Soon after we pulled in, a young lady emerges to tell us that we would not be waited on tonight because we went around the cone. Already anticipating this my roommate informs her that we would not be leaving because she clearly saw us pulling in when she dropped the cone in front of us. Realizing, she had just entered a battle she was not prepared to argue the young lady just said okay. That is when what I can only assume was the “manager” emerged. A 5 ft teenage girl, all too eager to exercise her newly appointed authority, armed with the sheer determination of reaching whatever social engagement she has preceded by work. At thus point I have witnessed enough and realizing this incident is only going to end with me drinking spit in coffee or my roommate choking this child out. Neither of which I wanted any part of, I leave, amazed at how much effort these employees put into running customers off. As I pulled away I noticed the time and according to their hours on Google they were supposed to be open for another ten minutes. Therefore, I will not ever return to Cruising Coffee. Totally their loss. I make about 3 trips daily to Starbucks for my 5 shot latte ...

2 stars because the drinks were good. However, have you spent 38$ on 2 drinks and 2 lunch meat sandwiches? Go here and you will! I was flabbergasted when they said the price and then asked if I wanted to tip them! NO I DON’T 😳🥴😭 all I ordered was 4 items, a 24 oz drink w/ half a sandwich and a 32oz drink w/ a whole sandwich. It took about 20mins to make the order. The staff kept entering and exiting the building, shoving their bodies against our vehicle in the drive thru. It was really unprofessional. Nearly 40$ and was given no receipt detailing how they came to the price they came to. Never ever again! Not to mention feeling nauseated directly after eating it! Even my cat rejected their bacon! They gave no chips like they are supposed to and the sandwich I ordered wasn’t even made how I ordered it! What’s a turkey club sandwich with no tomato! Incomplete is what it is! Not worth it. I should have drove away when they came to the window...

May 24, 2024 at 7:15pm. The blonde girl with the black hoodie made my drink. I asked for an iced caramel latte. It was the WORST iced drink I’ve EVER had. She left the door open and I could see how she made my drink. She didn’t rinse out her shot glasses or her mixing spoon. She let the shots die. She put a shot glass in the wrong spot and one of the shots of espresso went down the drain. She had already poured milk into the cup over the first shot. So to fix her mistake, she ran a shot directly into the cup. This resulted in an EXTREMELY BITTER tasting coffee. Not surprised one of their locations closed when they’re operating with this level of incompetence from the baristas. An absolute shame as this used to be one of the best spots in town. If I had one suggestion for the owner, it would be to invest in better baristas or at the very least, re-train the ones...
