Good staff, good espresso.
I had an espresso the other day from a competitor. The espresso tasted musty and off. I wanted to taste the espresso here before ordering an espresso drink ("is it me?") and the Dutch Bros staff complied and gave me a shot of espresso. Rich, dark, coffee-bitter but not acrid or musty or otherwise off.
The employees here were great to us; as first-timers, they started us with loyalty ("punch") cards and gave a run-down of several drinks.
Thanks, guys, we'll be back!
