Redmond, WA
Absoultely loved the service, the people were very nice. There was a very limited pastry section, which would be fine if it didn’t list itself for Breakfast and Brunch. The coffee was okay a little too much on the burnt side.

Perk is the perfect small shop to spend time alone it with friends enjoying an excellently crafted cup of espresso. Love the small feel of the place. Logan the owner is always ready with a great smile and quick service. He uses top notch Pacori wood roasted coffee. Music pleasant and not too loud. Highly recommend this unique Eugene coffee spot. This place has a huge advantage for dog owners it is dog friendly as long as your pooch behaves.

Fun atmosphere, great service. Perfect location to sit for a spell and get some work done or read a book. Definitely cozy get-​to-​know-​you place with its fair share of regulars.

Perk is where I go for both good cup of brew and a warm conversation. Logan, who is most often working behind the counter, is devastatingly handsome. He’s quick to greet one of the many regulars that maintain a tight orbit with Perk, and equally inviting to those who’ve just stumbled in as if discovering a new world.
Come for the coffee, stay for the laughs.

Here they have Great coffee from two great roasters, a chill unpretentious atmosphere, and a pretty awesome group of regulars. The Americanos are my favorite in town. Nice big window to watch eugene wildlife pass by on foot or in cars. Nice staff and cool art! Keep it up!

Came by on a Sunday a little after 4pm. Chairs out, sandwich board sign out, door open– but I walk in and 3 employees (?) working on computers /​hanging out tell me sorry they closed at 3pm. Super frustrating. Please don’t take over an hour after close to take your sign in. Didn’t feel like they cared and I don’t care to come back. Bummer used to love this place but too many inconsistencies in the last 3 or so visits. Can’t waste my time again and again.

Super cute little place, not much for seating room (a handful of tables inside and a few comfy seats outside) but it was a perfect choice for a coffee to go. The barista was super friendly and down-​to-​earth. I asked for her to make me anything delicious, cold, and caffeinated, and she went above and beyond with an amazing vanilla lavender iced latte. GET THIS! Yum. Highly recommended spot!

First time in Eugene and we stopped by Perk for a morning start. The cinnamon roll was excellent, very light. The latte was also excellent. Definitely a good way to start the day!

The 4 is because I really enjoyed the staff. The girls were great. Other than that, the coffee was a bit burnt, muffin may have been from a box. It looked amazing though on top. Maybe we are just spoiled with several great spots in Portland, but 2 out of 2 different drinks were a bit burnt and just a bit of a strange flavor. Good luck. I’m sure it could be better on another day.

This place is absurd — I appreciate that they use local, organic coffee (which was indeed tasty) and also offer locally-​made flavored syrups but the staff is worse than incompetent and the prices are ridiculous. They couldn’t do iced drinks because they were out of ice, and when I inquired about what brand the local syrups were the counter guy didn’t know and didn’t offer to look around or find out. I mean, the ice thing I could maybe understand although I personally think that any beverage shop needs to have a bigger ice maker than they do but the lack of interest in helping a customer is inexcusable. Only one of our group even got anything (black coffee) and the worker didn’t really seem to care. If they don’t care about having my business then I don’t care about them staying open. I won’t be back.

Coffee was pretty good (the bagels were to die for) but overall I don’t know how I felt about this place. The barista was on the phone while making our drinks, which I didn’t totally mind other than that it slowed the process. My coffee was on the pricier side but again, the bagel was cheap and good. I’ll probably go back and give it a second chance to blow me away.

Very friendly! Excellent coffee and bagels.
Got both items on my order wrong. Maybe a little too laid back? Nah. Ill take friendly over accurate any day.
Be sure to ask for your bagel toasted brown. Both times mine was barely toasted at all.

My first time here, not sure why I haven’t been before but I guess I’m never on foot on that section of Willamette. At first I thought that it might be the kind of coffee shop that I’m not quite cool enough for, but I was wrong.
This is now my favorite coffee home. Expertly pulled coffee, cozy and clean places to sit, uncrowded, and good looking vittles in the case. But what really won me over was the genuinely friendly service. I didn’t catch his name, but he got me to engage in a friendly conversation while he served me, which we from the East Coast are not want to really do.
Parking could be an issue.

I’m wandering Eugene and this was my first coffee shop to spend an afternoon writing away on my novel. At first sight I was thinking that maybe I try another, but I went on. This was mostly due to the small inside and not so clean outside, while not dirty, but people were smoking cigarettes away. Then I noticed the smokers stayed close to the street side so my lungs were saved. Thank you people.
The inside was too hot on this fall day so I opted for the outside. I saw all kinds of curious characters while tapping away. Still, with many distractions from the people parade I did get out about a thousand words and through two cups of good coffee.
If you are looking for the natural crowd of characters I would check out Perk. They have WiFi.

I passed this coffee house the first time I saw it just cause it was kinda small, but after visiting it today I will certainly be back within a week. The Coffee was good, the prices for most items were good, but best of all the environment is great. The people are down to earth and nice.
They had 2 roasts to pick from when I came in and I am very satisfied with what I got. They serve Mate, Kombucha, local syrups, and other cool coffee house perks.
Overall, great place to stop by for your morning shots, but also great place to hang out for a while.

I’m from out of town and only visited once. I walked about 1 mile each way from the Hilton downtown based on other reviews on Unilocal.
The staff were friendly, service was quick and the coffee was FABULOUS. Even the barista warned me that their mochas were a little different because they make them from really intense/​dark chocolate that is typically less sweet than your average mocha. He let me know that if it wasn’t sweet enough for me that he could add some vanilla syrup. It was really nice of him… but I LOVED the mocha and wished they served more like that around my neighborhood.
I try very hard to visit local coffee shops vs. chain coffee shops every chance I get and if every place had such great mochas they would quickly put those darned chains out of business.
