I wish I could give this ZERO stars . Worst coffee I have ever had . I’m from out of town , and was gonna grab Starbucks but it was rated a 2star in your area , so I went to your location because it was 4… I got the hot white mocha .. and it was so bitter and dry and burnt … literally the absolute worst coffee I’ve ever had. Disgusting .

I have been going to AJ’s for about 12 years. Today I ordered a large smoothie and asked if I could have a second cup because I have a 4 and 2 year old and they don’t both need a small 16 oz smoothie each. I was told they don’t do that here. I have always had a great experience with the young women that work here and today was my first bad one. It was the owner AJ that helped me. I over heard him talking to one of the girls inside about how he was an accounting major. I prefer to support small business owners but not when they manipulate you into buying two small smoothies so they can make more money. My kids didn’t even drink their smoothies. Plus he charged me $1 per smoothie for whipped cream. They have officially lost my business, my husband came here regularly as well, he said he will never again. He told me I should have cancelled my order and left. I wasn’t only ordering smoothies. I also ordered two large specialty coffees. My uncle frequented AJs as well, he said he will no longer go after I told him the story of today. I will be telling everyone I know this story. It’s sad when a business owner vs his employee are the reason you won’t support a place. In these hard times, a business owner should be going above and beyond, not being greedy. I would’ve even paid for the second cup, which he would’ve charged me $5 for probably based on his current up-charging and price gouging. By the way, two smoothies for my 4 and 2 year old cost me $14.50!!! I wish I had gone to McDonald’s where the smoothies are made with more fruit base and my kids actually like them. They are willing to give me a second cup always. If you like giving away your money to a greedy owner then AJ’s is your place! In regards to not ever sharing positive feedback, I believe that being a loyal customer for 12 years that repeatedly and regularly visited your establishment speaks louder than writing you a positive review. I would like to point out that I was not offered a second cup. I asked exactly for a large with two cups and he replied “we don’t do that here. We have smaller sizes.” Now if I had the option of being handed a second cup, why would he not offer this option? I think it is clear why. I paid $14.50 for two small smoothies and whipped cream was $1 upcharge PER DRINK, he never told me this. He just asked if I wanted whipped cream and I said yes. So each small smoothie was $7.25!

Lavender latte was very good. The syrup they use isn’t overly sweet. Prices are fair. Service is quick. They accept tap to pay.
