I came in to get some coffee and their flavors didn’t disappoint! I like the variety and unique flavors they offer, I like coffee and i have a sweet tooth and this place is my perfect happy place hahaUnfortunately, the place is tiny and busy I’m not sure if I’ll ever try to work there unless it’s a weekday i might.Definitely will come back to try more flavors.

Great coffee! Can’t go wrong with any of the flavored lattes, and they have such a good variety!

I wouldn’t recommend this place if you actually like the flavor of coffee. I’ve given this a place a few tries because the atmosphere is great and the baristas are sweet. But I can’t get past how bad their drinks are to me. There’s no coffee taste at all in the lattes- they’re such a light color and it tastes like drinking flavored milk. I tried a frozen drink today and it was so sickeningly sweet. Again, no coffee taste present. Just sweet, thick, and syrupy. I wish I enjoyed it more because it’s a great location and place to study but it just isn’t for me. They do have refreshers and baked goods that might be good.

We steer clear of coffee chains. This place is a one-off which we prefer over Star$$$ chain. Coffee is just as good, if not better. They have more coffee options and the barista can make changes if needed. Liked their dessert options although at 5 pm, the choices were getting slim but at least, the desserts were made in-house (not purchased from Costco).

The two young ladies behind the counter tonight were extremely helpful and friendly. One mentioned that it was her first day but I never would have guessed!

Strange Brew has been my go-to since they opened and they have a wide variety of menu items and change out their pastry offerings regularly—great for someone who likes to try new things. The baristas are always amazing and I usually don’t have to wait very long even when they are busy. Love it!Parking: Parking can be tricky during certain times of day, especially in evenings.

Cute little coffee shop on the strip with a nice atmosphere, plenty of available seating and good music! My only complaint is about the bathroom, it was quite dirty when I was there and the sink handle had dirt caked under it. Other than that it's a cool place to go to.

The drinks and interaction with the baristas was a positive experience, but the bathroom was an absolute health hazard and appeared as if it had not been cleaned in many days. There was a sign by the sink that says “Employees must wash hands” but the soap dispenser is broken and no soap is available. If the employees can’t properly wash their hands after being in a disgusting bathroom, do you want them preparing your food and drinks?! As a food business owner myself, I know this would never pass a health inspection and besides that, that level of filth should never pass management/owner inspection! Please do better for your customers.

I rarely give places a 5/5 stars, but this place most certainly earned it! The baristas were honest about which drinks would accommodate my preferences, they were very helpful and provided quick service. The rainy day latte tasted just like a werthers, and the price was super cheap compared to most coffee shops, especially for the amount of late given. The aesthetics were calming and interesting without being overwhelming. It was one of cleanest coffee shops I have been to in a long time, and smelled amazing. I just wish I would have gotten something to eat!

They have a really cool painting of a mouse wearing an 1800s general uniform. Oh, the coffee is amazing too. Try the 100 Year's War.
