Penguin Coffee

Such friendly folks, the barista came over to introduce herself and see if we needed anything else. Cute little coffee shop with a few pastries, good selection of coffee and teas, plus a drive thru if you so desire.

Parking is poor, and the drive through is slow-usually faster to go inside but not a good parking situation. The coffee is above average and the scones are 10/10. I love the lemon ginger scone and everyone the service is great!

Delish pastries, Nutella croissant was to die for, home made scones the size of your hand. The pastry chef is a doll.....Coffee was pretty darn astounding also.

Came off the ferry on a cold rainy Sunday and was debating between this coffee place and one of the drive-throughs with good reviews. So glad I chose this one. Very cute penguin-themed decor, reminded of my aunt who loves penguins. Staff were very friendly. The dilettante (dark chocolate) mocha was smooth and rich but not too sweet for the morning. Was planning to nibble on my scone all the way on my drive to Sea-Tac but had pretty much devoured it before I made it to the west branch of the 20. Crunchy bits on the outside and moist inside -- just perfect cranberry orange scone. I will be going back for seconds when I come pick my daughter up from Friday Harbor in June!!

Coffee was pretty good today, and fast and friendly service at the drive up window. We both got americanos, mine with cream and sugar and his black. Would try it again sometime.

They serve one of the best mocha's in town! Staff is always amazing and the atmosphere is great! For context I just moved here and I currently come to this coffee shop twice a week for school work! I would recommend to anyone!

The drip coffee is just okay, nothing special or worth the price. The beautiful croissants looked tempting, but today was not the day to enjoy these gems.When we arrived the service was chaotic and frantic. They were scrambling to handle the drive through order of 10 breakfast sandwiches, so our drip coffees took forever.It's just okay--conveniently located but otherwise not really stop worthy. Alas.

Hello - The coffee/espresso, staff, and ambiance seemed fine.This review is primarily about their baked goods.I was told they have a new baker onsite, which means fresh, fantastic!My weakness is croissants, and now indeed they have several choices which I'll go into. Plain croissant: Appeared to be just a Costco croissant for $3, which are indeed a puff-pastry dough factory-made. I buy them for home all the time ($6/doz.) and are a great cheap treat when toasted... but not something I'd pay $3 for each.Almond croissant: Now this is where it gets interesting. It looked like a croissant, and bakery made. It was the traditional shape but heavier than most, and when I took a bite it has a nice almond flavor, it does taste good :-) BUT, it was actually a SCONE made into a croissant shape with almond (frangipane?) filling and nicely topped... maybe even twice-baked (not sure)... just not a croissant. Maybe call it an almond scoissant?I get-it - buttery puff-pastry with the flakey crumbles are hard to make, I've tried.But to make a scone masquerading as a croissant... well that's clever & devious, but (to me) seems to exceed "artistic license", not really honest :-)For just short of $12+ tip I drove away with a med. latte & scone/croissant (whatever you call it)... think that'll be the last time. Well, that is until she/they make real croissants (hint hint), which of course requires the owner to invest/support her with the required space & equipment.Anacortes sadly lacks a French bakery. Maybe I should move to PT or Edison?

Coffee that supports the community! Not only is the coffee great and the servers friendly, the owner Aaron truly cares about the people of Anacortes. He graciously donates coffee every month to a program called Laundry Love which provides free use of the laundromat for our local neighbors. I have made the switch to Penguin Coffee because I want to support a local business that serves excellent coffee and cares about our town!

Great coffee and beans that we ordered were also very tasty. Great stuff. Will go back there anytime
