I have visited here many times and will keep coming back!! I have even reccomended this to my very gluten sensitive friend since the entire menu is certified gluten free. The food is absolutely delicious every time I come here and I've always been served by very friendly staff. The variety of drinks are great and the options for syrups is fun! The atmosphere is cute and perfect for brunch any day!

It’s a tiny place with BIG delicious food! I haven’t had anything there yet that I didn’t love. Excellent gluten-free and vegan food and baked goods! The scones and muffins, etc., are delicious. Definitely don’t skip out on anything maple glazed!

Amazing foods! Great gluten free desserts you can get here or at the Olympia Farmer’s market

The place is small, but very welcoming. Has about 8-10 tables. We we fortunate to be sat down right away. We were there at 11 am, on a Friday. Very clean and staff was friendly and helpful. Better come with a hugh appetite or share. Servings are large. We took 1/2 our meals home. I had the Classic Eggs Benedict with Hash Browns, so delicious. My husband went with an omelet with sausage, tomatoes, spinach, cheese, ham, and mushrooms. He said we it was very good. The hash browns were alright, a little mushy and greasy for our taste. But we will definitely be back with our daughter. She will want the gluten-free pancakes! Next time we will share our meal.

Any chance I get to eat here, I do. My wife is gluten free vegan and there’s abundant choices for her. I really flat out love the food, I have yet to have a bad meal here. Everything tastes awesome and unique. Yeah, it’s a little expensive… but so is everything else out there. Highly recommend!

Fantastic gluten-free gelato in Olympia! First time getting scoops here, and I tried the "Olympia Fog," which is a blend of local tea, rose, and vanilla. My 2nd scoop was Cardamon, which is a blend of spices. This made my small cup perfection!! I'm impressed by the unique spin to the flavors. Even vanilla had a twist to make it more favorable. I love experiencing a good bite. So I'm happy my mom and I decided to give this place a try instead of our usual place. We will be coming back for more scoops in the future and maybe check it out during their happy hour! I am curious what seasonal flavors they will create, too.

This has become one of my favorite places to grab a bite in Oly. Truly a hidden Gem! Gluten free Sammy's. I LOVE their raspberry grilled cheese with chicken added. Handcrafted shakes or juice and coffee. If you have not already you must try out this place and check out their Sanctuary outside seating. They place soundbath music. And sell cute little trinkets too.

Super popular location, so if you are in a rush, consider visiting just before or after the lunch hours as they are seemingly always slammed. The staff are a mix of really dynamic personalities and lackluster folks just there for a paycheck. For the most part, they are fantastic. I frequent this place and my only wish is that they offer more gluten free options and label the ones they do have. Once, I overheard an employee tell a customer that certain holiday cookies were gluten free, but there was no way to know to ask that. If you need to customize your order, I recommend you go inside. The drive thru is next to a busy street and the staff often struggle to hear over the road noise, especially on rainy days.

Such an amazing stand with a great staff! So many great food options including gluten free options as well. Every espresso shot is pulled to perfection! Will always be my favorite stand! :)

We get coffee, other drinks and gluten free cookies, great coffee and other snacks. My daughter always gets a Strawberry, rasberry red bull with orange juice, like and tastes good if your into energy drink stuff.

Tasty pastries, good coffee, and without a doubt the best baristas in Thurston County. (That is saying something, since there are many great baristas in this town.) Pastries: Baked fresh daily by the owners. There is an occasional miss, but rarely. I love gluten, but no protest from me about the gluten-free raspberry bars. (Try them heated up slightly.) My wife loves the lemon blueberry scones. Currently they are serving a pumpkin coffee cake. I rarely eat coffee cake, but my wife almost did not get her share when I tried some. Coffee and such: Good product overall. They are one of the very few coffee stands/bars in town that does a good chai, meaning the dirty chai is my go-to drink there. They have a good quality chocolate if mocha is your drink of choice. Hint for those obsessed with pumpkin spice: in season they make their own pumpkin spice for their drinks. I am not a pumpkin spice aficionado, but it's pretty good. Service: Did I mention these are the best baristas in a town with some great baristas? Even when the line of state workers requiring caffeination is long, they handle the pressure well. I keep trying to talk one of the baristas into going to a barista art competition, given the designs she pours into the cup. I'm sure they must exist somewhere. Atmosphere: Comfortable, given that they are in the lobby of a building with small offices and apartments. The seating in the lobby itself is cozy, and there are chairs and tables and a reasonably cozy nook around back. Some might rate the atmosphere lower, but they do well with the space they have. Price: For years, my one complaint has been the price, although "you get what you pay for" is true here. In 2023, I think their prices are about average with most other coffee joints in town. If you are paying about the same at other places, you might as well enjoy the product and service at Drip. Bottom line: Give them a try. I don't think you will be disappointed.

Love this location much more than the Tacoma Proctor district location. Visited today on our way to Oregon with my husband and two little boys. This has a much more welcoming energy, smaller, outside seating only. Our barista was a pleasure to talk to, so personable, helpful and kind. She was my ideal barista. I wish I had caught her name to give her kudos for being a bright light in our day. The coffees are perfect and the treats are a great pairing. I appreciate they have gluten free and gluten free + vegan options. Thank you!

Foods good. They could use an extra person more often but I get the struggle. Vibe is decent seating could use a cushion or 3. My partner loves the gluten free macaroons.

Gluten free, vegan, quick and healthy and convenient location downtown. Lots of street parking. Super kind staff and a beautiful space! What a gem.

Great Gluten free Root Beer..Yum

Daniel Matthews

Cold and rainy day scooter stop for hot coffee and a cookie. She said the gluten-free peanut butter sticky one was the best... and she was right: it was delicious.

Cece

Absolutely the most delicious donuts in town. They have different flavors daily, reasonably priced and is family owned. Their homemade flan is incredible, and they have vegan and gluten free options. Highly recommend this place
