Reviews for The Front Room Coffeehouse in Athens, OH
The best coffee shop on campus
Slow service even when not busy, & the baristas just act weird towards customers. It?d be like 4 stars if the drinks didn?t... always taste off. Non-licensed Starbucks are always a miss. Read more
Place is pretty good considering the staff is 100% student workforce, which leaves some room for improvement at times. Avoid... the place 5" before OU classes change until about 10" after the next classes start, cause the wait can be long. Counter help ifalways friendly if not overly adept at handling real money (i.e., cash). I go there frequently and it is not rare that they'llhave run out of cream or Splenda, and sometimes don't have brewed coffee ready. On some instances the staff has justsubstituted a different roast without checking, or worse yet, taken a tap from a still-brewing carafe (can you say "strongcoffee"?). All in all not a bad place but be sure you get what you want, and what you expect. Read more
Great coffee and great location. So many places to eat and drink in Athens but this one is a must. The staff is friendly and the... service is fast. Convenient location right on court street. I always stop there for a visit when I see my daughter at school. Iwould reccomend this place. Read more
I go here every single day and will not change my routine. They're super speedy and the sugar cookies are incredible.
The Front Room is the coffeehouse found on the 4th floor of Baker Center at OU. It was recently revamped so it looks very... modern and nice inside. It is usually clean and the staff are friendly. They walls are covered with photography and artwork doneby the students and the community. It is a nice place to have a coffee or other beverage of your choice and to do some work orto attend an event. Read more
Coffee drinks are consistently well-made. I don't think I've ever gotten a bad/bland flavored latte from here, which seems to... be an issue with a lot of coffee shops for some reason. Read more
I ordered a drink with light ice and they filled it up half way and said ?the rest is ice? I know I did not just pay 5.45 for a... grande when I ordered a venti. So very disappointed. Read more
