Whether you're grabbing a quick specialty drink before work or settling in for a slow sit with a fresh bagel topped with chive cream cheese and avocado, this small outpost delivers big flavor and care in equal measure. The thoughtful drink selection—from their creative signature drinks to perfectly executed cold brew—paired with quality pastries makes it the kind of place that turns casual coffee stops into intentional moments.”

A small coffee outpost with big flavor! First time I've stopped in and it hit all the marks. Friendly staff, fast service, and their Dream Team Espresso in the standard iced latte I receive was really, really good. And unlike bigger places (ehehm), the amount ice was not the primary ingredient. I will be returning!
This is such a great little location. I enjoy Dollop coffee and this location is conveniently near my office. The staff is all super kind and accommodating and the prices are good. They genuinely want every customer to leave their shop happy and I can say I always do. This location is only open 8 am to 3 pm so keep that in mind if you plan to check them out!
Dollop Coffee is the perfect place for a delicious coffee. We ordered a vanilla latte and spicy mocha. The drinks were hot, nicely presented, and they had the perfect taste. There was only one cashier working to take the orders and made the coffees, so there was a bit of a wait, but it was worth it for the end product. The only thing we noticed was that he was not wearing a hat or hair net. There was no seating in the actual establishment but there was limited seating in the lobby next door. Overall, it was a nice spot, just make sure to allot a bit of time to your visit if you notice that there is only one worker.
Such a great little spot with delicious lattes. The fresh bagel with the chive cream cheese was so good! I also added tomato, cukes and avocado. Friendly staff!
So, on an early morning trek to the office, I decided to swing by Dollop Coffee to satisfy my ever-growing curiosity about different Lattes. If you've been following my coffee journey through previous reviews, you know the drill. Dollop Coffee is this cute little spot, perfect for a quick caffeine fix on the go. The two dudes behind the counter were surprisingly cheery for that ungodly hour, which instantly set a positive tone for my morning. Let's talk about the Vanilla Latte. It's become my litmus test for coffee joints lately, and Dollop didn't disappoint. The balance of vanilla sweetness and coffee goodness was spot on. What I appreciated most was that it wasn't scalding hot. Seriously, there's nothing worse than burning your tongue on the first sip. Props to Dollop for serving it at a drinkable temperature, allowing me to comfortably stroll to the office without a coffee-related incident. In and out in no time, which is exactly what I needed for my morning hustle. Sometimes you just want a good coffee without the frills, and Dollop delivered on that front. Kudos to the friendly crew at Dollop Coffee for making my early morning coffee stop a pleasant one. If you're in the area and need a quick caffeine hit with a side of friendliness, Dollop is the spot.
