| - Ohhhhh Dutch Bros... Where do I start?
I had heard about Dutch Bros. a couple years back.. but since they are mainly located on the East side of town, I rarely got the chance to indulge in some silky goodness. However, when I found out that one of these little (TWO LANE!!!!!) huts was popping up right down the street from my apartment- I got a little excited!
Honestly, before this Dutch popped up... Dunkin was my go-to for my morning pick-me-up on the way to work. But Dutch has since changed that...
I really enjoy the Iced Kicker, it's silky and delicious. Although I have been making exceptions to my usual "dairy-free" rules when it comes to this place. To be honest though... I'm not sure why I even need to? Dutch offers a "dairy" option for everyone!
I think I should really put my foot down and start ordering this with almond milk, but we will see how that goes.
Anyway, I love this place. And lucky for me, my boyfriend lives right in-between TWO more of these sweet babies out in Tempe. I love it. The coffee is fab. Starbucks blows. Etc, etc, etc,.
OH.
I do have one thing to add.
I have gone to a number of Dutch Bros. in the more recent months... and it seems to me that every location gives off a different vibe.
Camelback & Central? Chill, relaxed, with a slight scent of MJ.
Mill & Southern? Down to earth and friendly.
Rural & Guadalupe? Awkwardly uncomfortable conversation.
..... and then there's this one.
I'm almost 100% positive that I wouldn't be shocked if the news revealed a secret cocaine business was being operated from this little hut.
HOLY CRAP, PLEASE STOP BEING SO CHIPPER. IT'S 630 AM. PLEASE JUST GIVE ME MY COFFEE BEFORE TRYING TO HAVE A DETAILED CONVERSATION ABOUT MY LIFE.
I'm really just kidding... only sort of.
TL;DR: This place is fantastic. I know the employees are super upbeat and hyper. But they are just doing their jobs, and honestly... they're pretty dang good at it! I love this place and wouldn't trade it... Except once I move to the East Valley. Then it's fair game for all 5 million of these little blue huts located out there.
