Reviews of First Avenue Coffee (Coffee Shop)

BreAnna Gardner

Coffee taste burnt and was overpriced. Not many options for flavors and they don’t taste good anyway. Also strange vibe/environment.

Hello can you make something like a flat white but I really don't like foam. "Yes we can make a no foam latte." Sure! Barista hands me my 12 oz to go cup which is at least 1/4 foam. I go back and ask if that's the lowest foam possible and I'm told by the same person that took my order that I should have asked for no foam. I create a confused look and before I can speak the person turns around and walks away. 0 stars is more appropriate for my experience.

Best coffee in town!

Cindy Hamilton

Great coffee, facilities work and gathering space!

Stephanie Kolden

Awesome place :)

Larry Lapidus

I wish my latte had tasted as good as it looked, though my choice of hemp milk, which tastes to me like sour dishwater, made it difficult to do a reliable comparison.

Nicolas Grobel

Stubbled in this morning not knowing what to expect. Very impressed with knowledgeble staff, interactive experience, and a modern ambiance. Definitely worth checking out.

Diana Zartman

Roast House/ 1st Ave Coffee roast and served my favorite coffee. The staff is great and knowledgeable. I love grabbing a window seat so you can people watch.

Vito Mirasolo

Great place great selection

Devin Scott

Amazing staff, delicious coffee. Nothing else quite like this in Spokane

Benjamin Allen

Love the industrial atmosphere. Shiny metal table tops and rustic wood tables make for a great place to study. Their menu placement is great. It points your gaze up realizing how spacious the area is. Also, the menu is placed on an old door. How lovely. I'm really glad to see such a great café open up in the area.

Jenny H

Love this place❤ such great coffee and wonderful staff

Jim Reincke

Of the gazillion coffee shops in and around the Spokane area, this is DEF in the tops! Very friendly and knowledgeable staff and superbly roasted and brewed coffee! Highly recommended!

Allison M

Very cool space, but snobby staff and less than impressive house roast.

Ian Shepard

Cool venue and awesome cold brew

Ron Johnson

I stopped by First Ave. while waiting for lunch at Brooklyn Deli. The layout of the coffee shop is the first thing that caught my attention, new school with an old school feel. The coffee was awesome, I had an americano in store and bought a lb. of the Ethiopian blend of coffee. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, this place is definitely worth a stop in and is my new coffee shop find !

Bryan Varney

Always excellent ❤️ So many great coffees offered and I love the way they rotate what they have. The skill level of the baristas is top notch and every coffee offering is great tasting and very responsibly sourced. Couldn't be better

Chuck Back

Coffee was very good. The interior is modern and nice, very open. The people are friendly. Not warm and fuzzy with over stuffed chairs.

Zackariah Brownell

Awesome atmosphere and coffee! One of my new favorite coffee shops in the area! Staff was very welcoming and friendly. Pricing was reasonable and selection was great! This place checks all the boxes for me, and I highly recommend!!

Kelly Cuff

Best coffee I have had in a long time. They roast their own beans and make their own blend. Tje atmosphere is sleek and modern. The baristas are great.

Destini Aguilar

Customer service was great but the $60 of different drinks and snacks were all disappointing. I went with a group, each trying each other’s order and all around consistently bad drinks and “desserts.” I typically leave good reviews but their drinks were not good - and not worth the high prices!

Josh Konzal

Amazing place to hang out. Very modern style. Completely green facility and environmental conscious. Spencer was very friendly and knowledgeable about the coffee and the craft coffee was some of the best in spokane

Brian Davis

Extremely nice crew. Fantastic coffee. Inviting place.

Mick Carpenter

Very nice, excellent coffee.

Monica Trotskiy

The service was amazing, and the coffee was good, but not my favorite blend. Great view outside with the fox theater. If you like taking photos, this is the place for you to go. Very open space and friendly

ruth GD

Best coffee hands down in Spokane. Spacious layout and inviting environment. Great customer service. Just wish there were more filling savory food options and wish hours extended till at least till 9pm. I would be a more frequent customer if the hours extended later.

Don Bullock

Excellent coffee with great service. Had the pour over. Very good.

Jens Kuehl

This is a must go type of place. Beautiful. Worthy. Genuine.

Nathan Peters

Great cap, really awesome space

Suzi B

Cool space, but very expensive. My chai was fairly watered down tasting and was $5.50. My husband's coffee was poured over ice in a short glass, and while it tasted good, there was much more ice than coffee. Not quite worth the price in my opinion. I'd rather hit up Indaba.

Jake Denham

Overpriced and probably the worst tasting coffee I've ever tried.

Jessica Beyer

This is the best tasting coffee I’ve had in Spokane! Rivals some of the coffee my husband and I I’ve had in Sydney AU. The atmosphere is awesome and the guy who makes the coffee is very friendly!

PK Master

The ambiance in this place is just amazing. LOVE the historic building with the modern touches. Coffee is amazing as well.

corrina kirschenmann

Stopped in from Montana customer service was awesome they have gluten-free which we were really happy about customer service was awesome food was wonderful and I love my mug thank you

Suzanne Weathers

Love it!

Samantha Rowley

Best pour over in coffee in Spokane, possibly the PNW

Brad Carpenter

Best danged coffee ever. Kristen rocks. Their knowledge and passion for coffee makes this a great experience

Kassidy Warren

Best coffee in Spokane with a beautiful modern and comfortable interior. Haven't found a better latte yet, and their pour-over machines are so cool.

Colin Webster

The best coffee in Spokane. One of the nicest coffee shops I have ever seen. The price point is totally justified by the experience, the friendliness of the staff, the cleanliness and quality of the space, and the focus on local, natural, and sustainable practices by a small coffee roaster.

Joe Kent

Coffee is outstanding, space is beautiful, but service was sub-par. The young lady helping us had a difficult time remembering what we ordered to start; 10 minutes went by before I went back up to the counter, and she hadn't even started our coffee. I had to ask again before she remembered to make it, so we received our coffee 20 minutes after ordering and after we had already finished our food.

Danny Klopfenstein

This spot is too special to not share with the world! Simply an amazing atmosphere with even better staff. This is a perfect spot for large or small gatherings, grabbing a quick bite, or spending a few hours grinding away at work/studying. ☕️

brook payne

Best coffee in Spokane made by talented baristas. A little pricey but I go here at least once a week to remind myself what coffee should taste like. Haven't tried the food

Logan Axon

Everything's delicious and they have the best table in town (you'll know what I mean when you see it).

Dan Wilson

A really cool place, large and historic fun atmosphere with friendly staff. Oh yeah the coffee is excellent too.

Dan Angell

Had a wonderful first visit here! Not only was the coffee awesome, but Spencer was a fantastic barista to meet and chat with. We were lucky to visit at a slow time in the afternoon, and it turned into an impromptu tasting at no extra charge. Will definitely be back soon!

Eric Thomas

Love working from this space! Lots of seating, the best coffee, the best people! I have to say: THIS PLACE MAKES DOWNTOWN SPOKANE COOLER!

Lauren Lofton

Pour over was soooo good & the aesthetic is cute as heck!

Shannon Cooper

The food is all gluten free or vegan, it was really gross with no food reg options.

Megan Hulsey

Awesome coffee and delicious baked goodies in an incredibly cool space!!

Baby Jesus1337

Great coffee and great atmosphere. Employees are cool and have personality. Would highly recommend.

Alan Chatham

Great atmosphere, and their grain-free 'biscuits' are super good!

Gh

One of my favorite coffee shops in Spokane. The coffee tastes amazing and their caramel syrup tastes heavenly. I highly recommend it. You won’t regret going to this place.

DAN Garage

Really.... 7am and playing music with F F F words. 12/12/18 Hmmm. Drip coffee it's okay have sour taste.

Hailey Moore

Delicious coffee

Ariel Fitzgerald

Great coffee but make sure you have plenty of time

Nikita Tsyukalo

Very aesthetic space with friendly staff and tasty drinks.

A H

Incomparable coffee & pastry offerings. The roasts are divine- macchiato so good! A real macchiato. ❤

Ken Hoekema

Well, this new independent coffee shop is right near home for us, but somehow it's taken a couple months to get in and try it. Unfortunately for us, we picked a holiday where they were closing early. We bought vanilla lattes with house made syrup with a very tasty espresso used. Can't wait to come back for a pour over and longer hangout in their cool space!

Vee Bropas

Always **##LOVE##** their @#^COFFEE@#*. @FRESH.@REALORGANIC&FAIRTRADE.

Ann Culligan

Great coffee and a nice place to sit and work.

Sergey Kuznetsov

It is awesome place to have a cap of coffee

James Ratzlaff

Great coffee purists!

Daniel Shattuck

Never had the coffee, but it sure smells good. Green tea is on point

Molly Lindquist

An incredible coffee shop! The staff are so knowledgeable and welcoming. They serve Roast House coffee, who are top of their craft. They offer pour over coffee, cold brew, coffee cocktails and fresh baked treats. Plenty of seating, Damn Good Coffee.

Melanie Collett

Super strong coffee, super nice staff, but no bathroom?!!

Henrik Joreteg

Really good coffee.

Kerry Garrett

I like the artwork and space here.

Chef Abdullah

I been there and i love the place and the coffee.. I will be there soon..

Paul Tinnon

Great location and awesome service

Kimberly Nesper

Amazing baristas and coffee! The atmosphere is very chic, and is a great place to hang out. There is lots of space to bring larger groups, including an upstairs loft with sofas. They have done a great job at turning coffee into a craft, even with something as simple as a drip coffee. I highly recommend this place.

Michael Sinitsa

Knowledgeable staff, fantastic flavor, unique big city feel. Spokane coffee shops just got elevated.

Bill Rosen

Coffee is first rate. Atmosphere nice. Checkout the Walnut table! Staff super friendly and welcoming. More Portland than Portland.

Barett McGavock

Incredible coffee ☕ and very kind service.

Corbin Cabrera

I've tried it 3 different times and had them give me some of their different signature drinks. Maybe I just don't have the pallet for this kind of stuff? Soda coffee tastes like sprite with espresso. Their Nitro wasnt very impressive. Their pastries were wonderful however and the venue itself is beautiful. Instagramming the neon "Damn Good Coffee" sign is a must.

Dru Rafkin

Friendly, kind AND best GF blueberry scones...seriously ;-)

Dan Jarosz

Great service, very personable, amazing black coffee.

Angel Willson

Wonderful staff, amazing venue and excellent hand crafted espresso drinks! Spokane is lucky to have this here
