Caffeina Roasting Company
4774 W State St, Garden City, ID
Crema's Take
“Caffeina Roasting Company wins hearts with its genuinely cozy atmosphere—think comfortable couches and a chill vibe perfect for settling in with your laptop for hours—though its in-house roasting operation delivers inconsistent results and the service can feel aloof. The espresso-focused menu shines brightest when the baristas are on point, with solid Americanos and cappuccinos that pair well with light bites, making it a solid spot for both casual meetups and focused work sessions despite the occasional rough interactions.”

The service her is terrible; I have been in a number of times and the staff is consistently rude and snotty. They brag about roasting their own beans, but the finished product is inconsistent. I have been charged more than the menu price more than once and they make their mochas with powdered chocolate milk and they are way too sweet. The food can be delicious if heated up correctly. All in all I am consistently disappointed.
My first time here and it was excellent. I will definitely come back. Coffee and food was great. There were plenty of comfortable chairs and couches to sit on.
Great vibe at Caffeina with a helpful staff and good coffee. The Americano had a good crème and the cappuccino was hot but a little foamy. No worries. Would come back again.
Service was cold, coffee was hot! I came for the coffee but service does matter. They said they would call when coffee was ready. They have an outdoor area open to the inside so you can hear when they call. Never heard them call anyone while outside, forty feet from counter with an open wall between us. When I went to check drinks, ours were on the counter. I asked if they were mine, “yes”; which is which? “They are labeled”. Then I hear same girl call an order. Mumble would be more like it. Certainly would not hear her unless I was at the counter. Drinks were hot and flavorful. But not any better than anyplace else in the area. Price was good. I even over tipped before the full experience. Wish I had tipped less, much less.🤣 Wife liked it, so we will try again.
I wish I could start by giving the atmosphere 10/5 stars. This little spot is for sure in my top 5 coffee shops in the Boise area. I love coming here to get some work done. The vibe is so cozy & chill. Amazing natural light, cozy furnishings, LOTS of plug -ins for laptops, plus yummy drinks & snacks!! Amazing plants, cheerful staff, and tons and tons of indoor & outdoor seating. (also a large roll up door for fresh air when it's nice out) I've never had a bad bite of food here, and I've tried everything from the scones to the soup. You truly can't go wrong. If you need a spot to read, chill, or just have a decompressing moment - I totally suggest Caffeina. Great for work meetings & everything else! Cheers!!
