The Annex Coffeehouse & Bakery

A proper cup of coffee! Best I have had in Billings. I spent the last five nights here in town and this is the best place I have had coffee (tried 3 others). The burrito is very good and so are there baked Goods. The cake donuts are made daily and are dense. If you love Ethiopian coffee get the pour over.

The Annex thrives with style and creativity. Traditional, artisan-inspired pastries and coffee with an unconventional flair such as a savory gallant makes this shop stand out from other coffee shops and bakeries in the area. Quality find!

Friendly barista! And excellent coffee! We loved this place and think it belongs in Seattle! The kids had wonderful breakfast of a ham and cheese croissant and a frittata that was out of this world, moist and delicious

Cool vibe and the coffee was nice and hot, but I was really unimpressed by the service and baked goods. The girl I interacted with was offputtingly rude. Latte tasted just like milk. Almond croissant had beautiful croissant pastry, but had an unfortunate strong taste of almond extract, was covered in an extremely sweet icing, and did not come filled with any marzipan, even though I asked if it did. The donut was heavy and even though it was fresh it tasted a bit dry and instead of tasting like the flavor it was supposed to be it just tasted like sugar. The bill was very expensive for such mediocrity. Maybe this is great for Billings?

It's unfortunate that 1 bad experience can create lasting impressions. Especially because it was my first time at the Annex and I was beyond excited to try it out! The employee working during the afternoon of 8-22-2017 was incredibly rude when I asked her a question about a drink on the menu. Now I try to give people the benefit of the doubt, everyone has bad days. But it seemed as if my business there was inconveniencing her so much. There was no greeting, no smile, and she might as well have been rolling her eyes the entire time we were conversing. Went I went to add creamer to my coffee she told me they were out. HOW IS A COFFEE PLACE OUT OF CREAM??! Isn't that the kind of thing you send someone out to get right away or borrow it from the Fieldhouse right next door? If it had been one thing or the other, I might have given this place another shot.
