The service at Artifact is dismal. A 20 year old in her grandmother’s bowling shirt and cat ears rolled her eyes at me and said “too bad, we’re out of the ingredients.” After she’d looked me in the eye, taken my order where I’d asked for an iced London Fog, and then proceeded to make it hot. I even apologized to her like I was the asshole.

Not to mention the time I found a staple in my oatmeal.

This is legitimately the most Artifact thing I've heard in my life. I love them but their service can be wild sometimes 😂

100% 😂 like I too was once the hipster giving terrible customer service, but now I’m just old and tired and want my goddamn iced London Fog.

That's crazy you have that experience. I had my car battery die the other day and someone who worked there agreed to go get jumper cables and help me start it right away. It was super sweet and it saved me from having to have my car towed.

It’s a mixed bag there. I’ve also had perfectly pleasant, if slow, service.

I’m sure. I don’t doubt it. I do love Artifact though, and they’re always friendly in my experience. I’m sure there’s odd ones out, but I guess I’ve been lucky to always have positive experiences.

Lmao their ~special~Earl Grey syrup or whatever 🙄 and no, she could not be bothered to hand me a cup of ice either. It was just a real head scratcher of an interaction.

Artifact is way too expensive for me to justify as a regular thing, but goddamn if they aren't excellent

Oh no doubt. I go to other coffee shops to enjoy the caffeine. I go to Artifact to enjoy the coffee.
