All their signature coffees are DELICIOUS. I've tried their apple cinnamon and marshmallow latte. Both are literally 10/10 the best coffee I've ever had. The atmosphere is great, I love having the bean bag there, I wish they also had one in the kennewick location. They also have board games/card games so its more like a 3rd space to hang …
First time going to Koala Cafe, very cozy vibe. My kiddo enjoyed playing while I had my drink. If you don't like overly sweet drinks, I recommend their hibiscus tea.

We decided to stop by for brunch and a coffee. The entrance alone was very inviting! We came at a very busy time, but there was plenty of knick knacks to browse. The staff were inviting and genuinely friendly. It felt as if they enjoyed doing what they do and they had great knowledge of what they sell. The seats …
I cannot emphasize enough how incredible it is here. Whenever i’m in the area I always take the chance to stop by and get something. The food and drinks are incredible, easily a top 5 out of the other coffee shops in the tri-cities area. The staff are genuinely kind and welcoming, and it helps the cafe/atmosphere feel calm and …

First time visiting. I'm usually pretty boring with my coffee order. This was the first time I worked up the courage to try something new and ask to personalize my order. They were really great about it and helped make a custom order that came out great. ❤️ Had a cookie as well, and it was delicious. Met my husband …
I have followed Koala Cafe on social media for quite some time and today I finally had time to stop in and check it out. I asked for a “surprise” and was given a Maple Pancake Latte and I requested oat milk and my “pancake flavor” I chose was Banana. I also chose iced 24oz. I’m in love! It’s flavorful …
From the first time I walked into Koala Cafe, it felt like such a welcoming and comfortable spot. The people are professional, kind, and create such an awesome atmosphere with great drinks and vibes. They also have really cute products to shop while you’re there! There are so many cozy places to sit, and somehow you always feel right at …
