Caffeine Station

Finally walked up here to check out a potential neighborhood go-to coffee shop near me. We came fairly early on a Saturday and there’s nice coffeehouse music at just the right volume. There’s a garage door that will be great for open air environment during nice weather. We enjoyed a caramel non-fat latte, an oat milk cortado and an off-menu item the owner whipped up for us when we asked for a “spicy” coffee drink… it was called a Nepali masala chai w/Honey! It was delicious. They have two roasts, a light and a dark… we went light for more caffeine. If you appreciate a smooth roast definitely give this place a try. For food we kept it simple this time with a Bacon, lettuce, avocado, Tomato (BLAT) on Sourdough w/ chips and a side of fruit. Plus, a homemade iced Lemon poppyseed bread to go. The fruit was so fresh and a great portion. This is a very walkable area with quaint shops. There’s a pet store Nextdoor so dog parking out front is encouraged. They’ll even bring your drinks out to you so you can stay with your pup outside. Parking can be sparse during busy times but know they have more parking in the back with a back entrance. There’s even a Mountain View.

I love that this place’s food and atmosphere are in par with the excellent ownership and customer service! This was our first time here, and it did not disappoint. The cortado (light roast) was smooth and enjoyable. I mentioned a coffee drink I’ve only found in CO, so the owner, Otto, decided to make me a drink that he specializes in (not on the menu)…Nepali Masala chai with Honey —> YUM! I think this is my new go-to. We also had a great tasting BLTA (bacon, lettuce, tomato, avocado), fresh fruit, and a pastry. While dogs aren’t allowed inside, this shop is very dog friendly. They have an overhead door —- all windows/glass, so your dog can hang out outside, and be in full view. I imagine this door rolls up when the weather is nicer.

What an extremely friendly atmosphere. We feel very welcome since stepping through the door. Great variety of food and coffee. The crepe here is incredibly fresh and delicious. We highly recommend avocado bbq chicken and turkey crepe! Coffee is on point! Looking forward to spending quality morning and try other menu with Thailand bobsled team again soon. Thank you for a great experience x

About 1.5 years ago, I was driving out in Sandy late one night and saw a bright yellow sign that read Caffeine Station...needless to say, I pulled into the parking lot out front and consulted Google. I told myself that this was a place I needed to visit - trouble was, I didn't really live close to the Sandy location at all. Oh well...I'd manage to find a way. Fast forward to a week or so ago, and I saw a new location had opened up! I planned on meeting a buddy of mine at this 2100 East location, but since it closed at 3, he said he couldn't make it. I went anyway, and I'm glad I did...I arrived at 2:50, and apologized to the barista for arriving at the 11th hour. She assured me that it was no problem. I ordered a Pistachio Steamer, and it was probably the best tasting steamer I've ever had. I have a formula when I try a new place, and Caffeine Station passed. If they take care and pride in even the simplest of drinks, you know you've found a treasure. My barista (Jenna) was so kind and we had an engaging conversation about needing to add JUST the right amount or Rose or Lavender into a White Mocha to make it magical and not taste like grandma's potpourri. I'm glad I was able to try this place that I've had on my radar for awhile now. A+ and a ☕️☕️☕️☕️ Four Cup Rating (out of 4 😉)! Marking this down on my favorite #PDR spots.

The owner has over 20 years of experience making coffee in Australia. If you want to know what real Australian-style coffee tastes like, you should definitely come and try it here! The food is also amazing — the chicken breast is a solid 10/10. I’m a chef myself and have cooked plenty of chicken breasts, but this one is truly special. The pesto is also fantastic — I’ve had pesto at many places, but the one here really stands out!
