My favorite coffee spot whenever I'm in town. Love the iced white mocha. Reasonably priced, locally owned, friendly service, never a mistake in my order.

The coffee I order is great (hot mocha latte). The last time I went in for coffee, another customer has a young, brown and white pit bull at his table; the dog was very pretty and friendly. I watched a few women play with him. Great atmosphere!

I have been to the Brent location and here but I frequent this spot due to proximity and mostly order from their drive-thru. This location is smaller and a bit more quaint, but you could still work here if you needed! If I had to choose between the two for a study/work spot, I’d go for the Brent location. Regardless, I’m always met with an employee that is kind and genuinely friendly! My go-to drink is a 16oz Vanilla Poetchino with an extra shot of espresso. (Sometimes I get whip, sometimes I don’t. Depends on the mood) It’s blended to the CREAMIEST perfection - not too thick or too thin/icy. It’s sweet without sacrificing that delicious coffee flavor! I lose my mind in the car every time I take my first sip because it’s so consistently good. I also highly recommend: -16oz Caramel Poetchino w/extra espresso shot (Tad sweeter than the Vanilla, but nothing too overpowering! The coffee flavor is so yummy with the caramel.) -Their blueberry muffins (Full of that classic Blueberry muffin flavor, moist, not too crumbly and not overly sweet like you find in a lot of pre-packaged muffins. Love their recipe) -Their breakfast burritos (So flavorful, full of protein and cheesy. Also tasty with the Texas Pete hot sauce they give you) The Drowsy Poet will always have my business! A must when in town

I will admit I am a coffee snob. Years ago I worked in dozens of coffee shops all along the Gulf Coast. Hands down, and by a long shot, Drowsy Poet has quality ingredients, superior flavors, and a warm, welcoming environment. I mostly drink coffee, but decided to grab a bite to eat a few days ago - and I'm still thinking about how great the breakfast biscuit was. Enough so, that I had to leave a review. Their coffee and flavors are top notch. There is no comparison, even with Starbucks. Just all around perfect. I wish nothing but the best for this establishment and the employees

A Drowsy Poet location that serves acai! I had been wanting to stop by this location to get a taste of their acai and get a coffee! Atmosphere: The space has a variety of seating with the barista station taking up the left-hand side! Service: The worker prepared my coffee and acai bowl quickly. I was the only one in the shop, but they had a line at the drive thru. Menu items: I got an iced honey cinnamon almond milk latte, and it was the perfect level of sweetness (I don’t like it too sweet)! The acai bowl was what I was most excited for, and it did not disappoint. The blend was smooth, flavorful, and the perfect consistency topped my favorite toppings: banana, blueberries, and granola. We have a few Drowsy Poet locations in town with their own take. This one is more drive thru focused and has an aesthetic exterior!

Everything here is awesome and I love the workers. They make the place what it is. I have never had a bad experience and once asked for a new thing that wasn't on the menu and they gladly obliged and even took the time to ask me how it was. They always seem to like their coworkers and work in symphony. It's quite nice to see as opposed to going somewhere else and hearing someone yelling at someone else for being on their phone. Also look at this cute Christmas design they made on my cup!!! I love this place. I come here almost every weekend and spend a couple of hours if I can.

Our first visit- our Navy daughter’s suggestion. The people working the counter were very friendly and helpful with suggestions and recommendations. We got a Poetchino- mocha- a latte (plain) and a cocochino along with a banana nut muffin and a cinnamon roll. The drinks were all very good- the Poetchinos were delightfully NOT over sweet like so many frozen drinks are now- and you could actually taste the coffee. Wonderful! The latte was a perfect combination of espresso and foam. Muffin was good- liked the funky chopped nuts on top instead of big chunks like most. The cinnamon roll was gooey and delicious and had a nice frosting on top that was sweet but not overpowering. Overall a very nice visit and we will be back often when we are in town.
