Nice people. Good mocha. Its a drink ve through. We got coffee and went to the beach to drink it. Nice.

Cute little drive thru, walk up coffee spot.Line takes awhile but so does quality coffee ☺️

Very yummy food. And great variety of coffee drinks. 10/10 sweet workers as well 🥰

The best place to get coffee around! If there’s a wait, it’s always worth it. They always remember my order and are very kind to the community.

Lively, patient, and welcoming staff. The slug bagel with ham and cheese was better than I expected. The everything bagel seasoning really tops it off. The dirty chai is also very satisfactory here. 😊

Food was fine...server was wonderful....but we learned that the manager doesnt allow her trainee to keep any tip for 30 days!!! Outrageous!!

Great coffee and great service. These folks remember my drink whenever I walk up, can’t beat that. Big shout out to Molly-Joe and the amazing Riptide team!

WONDERFUL customer service and very very friendly!

Love their vegan pumpkin bread, also like their ham and cheese croissant. The only downside is sometimes you can wait a very long time

The coffee and food are great, but it always takes 30+ minutes to get service.

Ripetide has delicious espresso! Heads up you can wait a long time for coffee as they are helping a lot of people, making coffee and food, all at once. The manager there is super nice and always remembers my drink, even after just once visit. I was impressed. Thank you for best Americano with a dash of cream. Always stop here on my way to the river. Iced Americano! Yum!

When theres a line at a place you think: are they really slow...or really good?Theyre worth the wait!!Theyre really good!!

Riptide is a great local spot to grab a coffee on your way to work or on your morning walk. It can be a bit busy during commute hours but they have a great selection of espresso drinks, teas and coffees.

Great coffee, fast friendly service

Rose and Molly are the best! Lol naw all great service.

Love riptide! Upbeat friendly baristas, and every milk alternative, including hemp is available.

I love this place! :) perfect pick-me-up with the blended mocha drink. I get mine with almond milk and it’s delicious. They always ask me if I want a straw. So appreciate this since I prefer not to waste single use plastics. They have a loyalty card and fresh bagels for a delicious breakfast or snack :) so friendly but not overly talkative like Dutch Bro’s haha

Always friendly l, best coffee around.

Great coffee, Chai, and amazing baristas

Shady hiring practices.

Pleasant staff, a bit slow, but a delicious bagel and tea.

Mocha was average to me, but my wife really enjoyed her nonfat latte.

Friendly staff and great coffee. Can sometimes have a long line.

Best place to get coffee in Humboldt! The people who work there are always hustling and make great food and drinks.

This is the worst coffee Ive had so far in the area and the service was really really slow. Both the latte and chai tasted watered down, very weak flavor, and not frothy at all.

Good coffee friendly folks

Amazing staff who will remmeber your order

Wait was far longer than needed to be. I hope one of the staff was new because he asked me 5 times what my order was to make sure and then just sat at the cash register repeating himself to the other staff member. Coffee is good service needs work.

Great place friendly people

Amazing food. Cooked fresh. Great creamy coffee.

My favorite coffee shop when im visiting arcata

Excellent customer service, great coffee, reasonable pricesBetter then Starbucks and cheaper prices

Sign clearly states drive through or walk up. We parked and walked up. Waited at an open window to be told we needed to get in line with the cars- lol. On foot I asked? Yes. Just stand in line between the cars. Why does the sign say walk up? We choose to leave, it was an odd experience.

Great coffee. Super nice staff!

Good coffee and sandwiches for a reasonable price. Staff is friendly.

Riptide straight kills it in the best way!! Got a dirty chai with a hummus bagel and it is fueling me for the day ahead. Theyre also really friendly. Dank food and coffee, 11/10 would recommend.

Awesome drinks, awesome people. Go there everyday

Always friendly and fast like Dutch. Bros without the hype and corporate feel

Amazing grilled butter croissants with flavorful pesto! Good selection of coffee-based drinks. They even had ice cream and milk shakes which well try next time. All this in a tiny but cute drive-thru with warm service.Want breakfast? Come here.

So friendly.

The Riptide Cafe is a tiny, drive-thru coffee and bagel place that makes awesome coffee drinks and offers a variety of bagel items both sweet and savory. Every item is prepared to order, so its always fresh and just the way you like it. They offer specials daily, have a selection of sweet breads and muffins, and give punch cards so you get a free drink after buying several. The staff is friendly, hard-working, and is always happy and smiling. The prices are a bit lower than the franchised competitor, so I prefer Riptide Cafe for better quality at lower prices.

Great customer service!! Thank you 😊.

Always super nice, and extremely genuine. Fantastic coffee at a great price. This is without a doubt my favorite place in Humboldt.

Awesome place. Great personal service.

I love to visit my coffee girls. They are sweethearts. My dog lives them too. And great mojo!
