Caffeine Queens

My family and I just moved to the other side of Lakeside. The closest coffee shop to us is Caffeine Queens. It's a drive-thru only but the coffee is so good. There is a Starbucks around the corner but this coffee is legitimately so good. I also go to the gym at Planet Fitness, which is in the same parking lot. Caffeine Queens offers a protein coffee which tastes great after a workout. The staff has been friendly both times I've been so far and made some great recommendations. We will be coming here often.

I wanted to try something new and I prefer a smaller local coffee spot over Starbucks any day. But I wasn't too impressed with this place. The girl taking my order recommended the Queens delight- vanilla powder, caramel sauce, cream, and caramel drizzle and said it was their most popular hot drink. Being the queen that I am, I took her advice and ordered the drink. To my disappointment, it tasted like warm vanilla flavored milk. The color of my latte had a faint tint of beige and I could not taste any of the espresso that was supposed to be in the drink. I could not finish this and it was a waste of $6.50. I found the queens delight very weak and there was no boost in my proactivity after drinking some of this. Mehhh, I don't think I'll be back. It's drive thru only and service was okay. There were 3 people preparing the drink and 1 person taking orders. Not much for customer service here as there is little human interaction. I don't care either way, being the hermit that I am, I only care that I get what I pay for. So if you like warm flavored milk, this is the place for you.

Was looking for a caffeine fix this morning and found this spot!I love the drive through concept and the menu here has plenty of option and some breakfast items as well, I was very intrigued by the energy drink infusions and will definitely try one next timeThe service was quick and the workers were super kind, the drink I got was sooo yummy with the perfect sweet to coffee to milk combination, can't believe I haven't been here before!!

Ordered 4 CQ Açaí bowls and they were ready within 5 mins of me ordering it (amazing!!!). They tasted so good and the girls who were working were friendly / answered any questions I had. Will be back to try drinks!

So grateful to have a local coffee shop with a drive-thru!Everything we've tried here is good... the peanut butter cup, matcha green tea latte, Snickerdoodle, iced coffee- yum! The service is great too. Everyone is friendly and super helpful.

I'm a day 1 for CQ & absolutely love everyone who works there. They will absolutely go out of their way, every time, to ensure you have a good experience. I love that they are involved in our Lakeside community, too. My go tos are their redbull infusions(Glass slipper and fruity pebbles are my faves) and my kids love their Italian sodas(peach & vanilla with cream - you're welcome) and açaí bowls!If you have dogs, make sure to get their pupaccinos! It is drive thru which makes it very convenient during my drop off/pick up routes. They also offer mobile orders through their website to make for an even quicker trip.

One day, not too long ago, I was taking one of my normal walks around Lindo Lake and I happened to see something on top of one of the wooden posts. Of course I had to investigate. What did I find. A cute little 3D printed crown and a small card for one free espresso drink at Caffeine Queens. Well, I am delighted by small finds, so I was pretty excited. I didn`t even know there was a small coffee shop close by and I`m trying to go to Starbucks less.The first time I went, I forgot that I had left the crown and card in my house, but I mentioned it and they told me they needed to have the card in hand to redeem my free drink. Okay! No problem. I still got myself and my mom a coffee because we were there. After I paid I asked if there was a rewards program to earn free drinks, they said yes but that I could get set up NEXT time with my phone number and link it to a card. I was slightly put off by that because it seems they still could have set me up, but whatever. I got a hot vanilla latte with oatmilk and my mom had a hazelnut latte with oatmilk and both were very good. Here is the thing: I don`t like super sweet drinks and these drinks had the perfect amount of syrup to make them delicious but not too sugary. My mom and I agreed that we would return. Return we did for some hot dirty chais with oatmilk(this time I got set up for the rewards and used the freebie card) and again, really delicious drink. I`ve been a few times since and if I`m close to Lakeside, CQ is where I will go for coffee. The set-up is different in that it is an opening in the side of a building(not a window) and you can see your drinks being made. I like it and appreciate a drive-thru as the only option. Staff is nice enough. I will be going back again and again.If you're in the area, stop by for a coffee.

This coffee gem drive thru (only) is located in lakeside right by the barbershop. Good coffee and pastries a little pricey. Vast variety of lattes/ coffees/ pastries/ teas/ energy infusion drinks. Great customer service. Prompt service. We ordered the iced cinnamon roll latte, snickerdoodle hot latte and iced vanilla latte. Will definitely try again

Today my first time coming to Caffeine Queens and I must say I regret not coming soon! From the customer service to their Red Bull and açaí bowl I got, it was amazing. Total 10/10 experience.

Great coffee & service. Love their creative menu items, shaken espressos & açaí bowls.
