Review Pelanggan untuk Caribou Coffee

Christmas is nearing up, cold and rainy weather is upon us, what’s better than a cup of hot chocolate to accompany you during this time of year? Caribou’s hot coco has booked a special place in my heart ever since the first time I took a sip of this heavenly goodness.

Food and beverages: 4.5/5
As stated above, I absolutely love their hot chocolate (milk). Topped with whipped cream, this cocoa drink leaned a little to the sweeter side - which I love. The chocolate was not as prominent as the milk (personal preference), but if you want it to be more thick you could opt for dark instead of milk. Tasted like chocolate milk straight out of your childhood! I also had Granini Banana Juice, which had the texture of juice but tasted like fresh banana smoothie, and Poppy Seed Bagels, just a regular bagel sprinkled with poppy seeds. I tried dipping the bagel in the hot coco and it made it 10 times better.

Pricing: 4/5
A little pricey, but standard if you compare it to other big coffee stalls. For a large hot chocolate (milk with whipped cream), it costed me IDR 56k, and the Banana Juice costed IDR 25k and IDR 15k for the bagels. Worth the price? Definitely. 

Ambience: 4.5/5
Caribou offers a very homey atmosphere that makes you want to stay here all night long. Its interior is mainly wood - wooden chairs, wooden tables, and wooden cabinets - that adds warmness to the package. They also provide sofa seatings inside (in the non-smoking room) with their tagline hovering above that reads “Life is short, stay awake for it”, a secluded private room with cute murals. There is one special spot that I’ve admired from the second my feet landed in this place - a fireplace. A freaking small fireplace in the middle of the shop! Located in the center, with two plush chairs and one small table attached to the fireplace, this is one hell of a deal maker. They really put an effort on the design and boy it paid off.

Service: 4/5
Baristas were really friendly and all smiles. Even when I took quite a while in deciding what to order, they didn’t make that please-hurry-up, people-are-waiting face

Highlights: Milk hot chocolate by the fireplace with your significant other would be great for this cold weather.
