Excellent service. Super nice girl. They sell MUFFIN TOPS! Nobody eats the extra bread! She asked if whole milk was OK, And I only do almond milk. Save me from an upset stomach

Wake Up Espresso is an iconic Lakewood landmark right across the street from Clover Park High School. Ive been going there for years now and have always enjoyed their coffee and friendly customer service.They feature gourmet coffee from Poverty Bay and also sell the brand via their weekly in store order. talk to your barista for details. my go to order is typically and Americano with cream. you can tell a lot about a companies coffee product especially when there are no sugars or flavors added because you just a pure coffee experience!their prices are reasonable and their customer service is top notch. theyve also got a great assortment of snacks to complement their outstanding coffee.

If going to Wake Up Espresso, I suggest paying cash, not using a card.... I paid with my debit card and when I checked my banking I discovered the barista had customized her tip. Rather upsetting.

This is my favorite coffee spot! My husband and I keep one of their repeat customer cards in the car with us. The barista (spelling?) Remembers our orders and always double checks as I occasionally change mine. The coffee roast is strong and robust but not burnt. This is one of the primary reasons Im willing to pay for prime coffee as my once a week treat. The only snack they offer that I have tried is a cup of donut holes, which hit my sweet tooth very well. The personalized service is unmatched at any similar stand I have been to in Lakewood. Easy access at the stop light.

Went out of my way to swing by here when traveling to Portland with a couple co-workers painfully early in the morning.The girls working the booth seemed nice enough, although everything took a long time to be made. The two of us that got coffee were down the road a bit before trying our drinks, and it appeared that either the espresso here is tasteless or they forgot to put espresso in our espresso drinks! We had warm (not even hot) milk and flavoring. We ended up driving down the road an hour and re-purchased coffee at one of my known locations.

I have been going here for a few months now, I have never been disappointed. Love their specialty coffees (very creative) and their smoothies. Just wish there was one closer to work for me.Also the staff is what makes them even better. Always a great conversation and smiling.

First time trying out this place and it was a great first impression. I got a cappuccino and the girl working was friendly and chatty, took the time to ask how i preferred it. Most places with drive-thru are so rushed and messy so i was really happy they focused on making it right for each customer. Will be back!

The service at this coffee shop was outstanding. The girls are well trained and it shows. They made my caramel macchiato exactly how I ordered it and it tasted amazing. We had a large order of five drinks and all were made correctly and she never wrote anything down. Definitely my choice of coffee shops in Lakewood

First time coming here and I will be returning all of the time. For the first time in a long time where there are 5 different choices for alternative milks. But the personalities there, are warm and welcoming.

The worker was nice, but the Carmel Frappuccino was terrible. Expensive and nasty.. It tasted like ice and plain coffee blended together. The sugar cookie was hard and not good😔

I LOVE THIS PLACE! IF I COULD AFFORD TO GO EVERY DAY I WOULD! The ladies are amazing and caring, especially about their regulars, if they havent seen you in a while when you come back they make sure that everything was ok. Some people might think its kinda nosie but I like it. They take the time to remember what you like and dont like and they make great suggestions on other things they think you might like. They are just awesome!

Had a literal nightmare experience this morning which Im sure cant be completely indicitive of the quality of service or product this business produces but I certainly wont ever be coming back.We waited in line watching the barista chat in the window for 10 minutes to the individual in front of us. Cars behind us pulled around to the other side of the building and were served and left before we were greeted.With previous experience as a barista I feel confident in saying that the expresso used in our plain lattes was burnt and made our drinks wildy bitter and unenjoyable.I do truly believe that our experience this morning cant be a wholistic example of this businesses quality of service, but this really stunk.
