Newsroom-Chalet

Honestly, I really wanted to love this place since I live right around the corner. The vibe is neat, and it’s decorated decently... But, the coffee. The coffee is so terrible. I have lots to give critique on so management feel free to reach out to me. But if I could offer one piece of advice, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE contract a professional barista from Seattle, Portland, or even Walla Walla Roastery to come out and calibrate your machines, and teach you how to pull a shot, and choose a better bean in the first place. Please..... I really want to come here everyday, and I’ve gone through 2 punch cards... but I just can’t do it anymore. Fix your product before you go out of business.

Good meat and cheese plate. Really enjoy their patio.Fun spot for coffee, glass of wine, or some fantastic gelato.

Sunday morning at noon came here and only one lady with a frozen drink in front of me, the lady ordered one frappucino type drink. It took the girl and guy working 10 minutes to figure out how to make it. I had a 16oz mocha, I waited almost 20 minutes for a mediocre drink that was made with ingredients that they obviously got from Costco. Tasted good...just took way longer than necessary. Maybe it was the employees first day? Maybe they were both hungover? The world may never know. 😶

The newest addition to the newsroom coffee house line! This is a perfect replacement for the old Starbucks that used to be here. This is the second location in town, the first being at 40th and Summitview. The folks here have put together what may be the best set up in the area. As with the first location, they serve beer, wine, coffee and a few small bites here as well as pastries and gelato. Inside there is seating for 20 or so, with some couches and nice large tables. Outside is an awesome set up with four or five large tables with umbrellas. This is the perfect place to sit outside, sip on a craft brew that was grown in town and watch your kids play on the giant lawn area outside. It is seriously what Starbucks was never able to do with the space! It definitely is not the factory that Starbucks is, so it can take a little bit longer to get your beverage and array is not quite as wide, but for those who are looking for a good local spot, this is it! The gelato is solid though a little expensive. They tend to run specials once a week or so (i.e. Thursday's are but one get one free night) so it's worth the trip at least once in a while! The place just opened so as they work the kinks out, this is likely to become a go to place in town! Its so nice to see the proliferation of local business and this is no exception. It's a perfect place to take the kids so they can run around and you can grab a drink, caffeinated or otherwise!
