Freiderich’s Coffee

I stopped in to grab a hot drink on a cold and blustery fall day and do some work at a table. When I arrived, three of the employees were preoccupied in laughter & conversation with each other and took a while for them to notice I was there.
Unfortunately, the chai latte I ordered tasted very watered down and had very little flavor.
As I began to do some work, I couldn’t help from overhearing two of the staff members complaining loudly about another employee. They listed all of the things she does wrong, how much she «sucks at her job and if they were in charge, they would fire her.» Perhaps the complaints were warranted, but I find addressing this within earshot of customers is extremely unprofessional and distasteful. I will not be returning to this establishment and will not be recommending this place to others.

Went in around 8pm on a Saturday night. No other customers were there and I wasn’t even greeted. Even when I was the first one to say hello, I received no response. I stayed, though, against my better judgement only to be disappointed. The coffee was mediocre, at best. Would not recommend this place.

I’m new to the world of coffee, so when a barista recommends an Almond Joy mocha with chocolate drizzle and coconut syrup, you won’t find me shying away from the firsthand recommendation. Bring it on.
The exterior of Freiderich’s could use some love — I suppose a massive sign that reads «Coffee» gets the point across. Luckily, there is more charm on the interior. Local newspapers scattered about in a lounge chair seating area, free WIFI (which I couldn’t seem to get to work on my computer), rows upon rows of coffee beans for grinding and warm lighting over a handful of tables. For those who prefer to work at a counter setting, there are four to five spots overlooking the parking lot.
Back to the Almond Joy bebida — moto delicioso! Because everything tastes better with honey, I added a teaspoon… or two to my already sugar-​loaded cup. The baristas were super friendly and happily played along with my lack of coffee knowledge. (Thank you!) I look forward to visiting again and trying some of the local sweet treats in the case (covered graham crackers, rice crispies and all sorts of other sinful eats).

I found this place by accident when I was trying to find the Krispy Kreme. Wow, this is coffee heaven. I had a cup of joe and then had the snickerdoodle coffee beans to take back home. Nice atmosphere and plenty of space to veg out or do work. I would come back here again to study or read.

My first impression after walking in through the doors of Friederichs was that this was no ordinary coffee shop. This is so much like a college coffee house/​hang out. A perfect oasis for a solid cup of coffee.
Living off of truck stop coffee that is strong in some towns and in others tastes like its decaffeinated I was in need of real fuel. Out of pure luck I saw a sign for Friederichs instead of other coffee chains and pulled in and figured why not try something new.
Loved it. I walked in the door and was greeted by the pungent smell of roasted coffee beans. The board wasn’t hand written but it could have been. This definitely would be a great place to prepare for a meeting, study before finals or just snag a pastry. The service was wonderful, the girl working behind the counter was very friendly and was just as nice to her customers that were continuously coming through the drive thru.
Definite things to keep in mind:
There is a drive thru
There is free wi-​fi
If ordering an americano-​the coffee is so strong that you think there is a flavor added to it but it’s just the coffee.
Very fine establishment, cheap treats and a great way to start a day.
