Poindexter Coffee
66 E 6th Ave, Eugene, OR
Crema's Take
“This Eugene spot serves genuinely delicious coffee in a casual-upscale setting that's perfect for lingering over breakfast, though be aware that inconsistent staffing and service issues have left recent visitors frustrated. The full breakfast menu and welcoming vibe make it a solid neighborhood gathering place, but you might want to call ahead or visit during peak hours when more experienced staff are on hand. It's a convenient option if you're in the area, just go in with adjusted expectations about the service experience.”

Trust the reviews. Kids working at register have no understanding of customer service. You’re not acknowledged and they’re too busy talking amongst each other to concentrate on the job. When you’re paying $4 dollars for water down drip coffee customer service should be the main priority.
Young woman employee making coffee did not wash her hands after taking out the garbage and changing the garbage bag. Young man employee not wash his hands after handling cash and wiping his nose (no tissue) before making coffee and delivering food to tables.
If you serve hot breakfast on a skillet with a fork, at a table, you’re not a coffee shop anymore. You’re a breakfast restaurant. It’s as if someone was forced to open a restaurant but really didn’t want to and did the absolute minimum required. It’s a self serve restaurant that asks for tips. Want a glass of water? You’ll have to get up and get it yourself. Coffee? Stand in line. It’s as if-if you asked them why there was such poor service they’d explain that they’re really just a coffee bar that reluctantly agreed to sell breakfast as well but really doesn’t want to. Two stars because the breakfast food is not bad. If this place committed to being a breakfast restaurant with the two annoyed looking girls behind the bar being actual waitresses that walked around to tables with a pot of coffee in hand, it could be a nice spot.
Coffee is delicious. Staff friendly Location and vibe casual and upscale. Very nice place to have my morning cup.
Convenient place to grab a cup of joe if you are staying at The Graduate but this place is no destination. We ordered drip coffee and it was a thousand degrees. The lid on my wife’s coffee didn’t fit right so we had to pour most of it out before driving off. Ordered a muffin which was average.
