Hippo Express Coffee

Great service, the ladies were down to Earth and you could tell they enjoy being there. They have every flavor combination you can think of and the coffee is strong. The breakfast sandwiches are also made to order. This is the perfect place to stop before a road trip. Grab breakfast coffee, gas, and a car wash! :)

We stopped by for some drinks! Stellar service from Kaela! We recommend this place!

I’ve been coming here since they opened and this is hands down my favorite coffee place in Tacoma. The drinks are great but the staff is why it’s my favorite. Em and JL are so sweet, they know my regular drink order better than I do at this point and are always happy to surprise me with something new when I’m not sure what I want. Also, let’s not forget that you can get a really good Banh Mi at 6am here. That alone warrants 5 stars, as do the lemon cookies.

The girls were super sweet! They even gave my mom a drink recommendation for her upset stomach, which helped her a lot! The drinks were delicious and so was the food. It really hit the spot👌

My go-to coffee spot for more than just coffee! I love seeing Kendall and Emily everytime I drive through ☺️🫶🏻 Kendall knows what I love in a drink and always has recommendations for new concoctions. Emily is so thoughtful and creative, she even cuts my daughter’s muffin into quarts so she can eat it easier 🥺
