Warehouse 4 Coffee (Kettering)

I am just not sure HOW they are so busy. It's not that the coffee is bad because it was good. It's that their entire setup, parking, communication and everything else is poorly thought out. I know I have a 30-year restaurant background and owned a fine dining restaurant for 10 years where the expectations were extremely high but I didn't see much about this place that even indicated that they really care about their customers.

Where do I start? I'll start with parking since that was my first impression. Every single spot was filled and they only have like six or seven. Street parking was also completely full with no other options. How does that work? I was meeting someone so I found a spot and walked.

You walk in and there is no sign telling you where to order or where to pick up, even the staff didn't direct us, she just stood there staring at me. When I finally figured it out I approached and provided my order. The baked goods, that I thought they were known for was just a very small case between the wall and where you place your order. It was practically empty at 10:00 in the morning.. I got the last lemon scone and while it was a little dry it was tasty.

The available coffee drinks were on a sign maybe 18 by 24 on the perpendicular wall from where you faced to pay. And as I stood there I realized behind them was at least a 15x10-ft beautiful space where they should have put all of their offerings.

I could barely hear the employee that took our order and I suggested she speak up, she gave me a dirty look and never changed her volume.

As I waited for my coffee I noticed one small menu stuck against the wall at the pickup station. No one ever mentioned they had sandwiches or food and there was no indication anywhere that that was true, except this afterthought of a menu.

Every table, and there aren't many, was full so we sat outside. Unfortunately there was only one table in the shade and it was blaring hot. So we made do.

Except for the parking and adding tables although they could get a couple more seats in there, it would be so easy to make this place a warm welcoming location that makes it clear they appreciate their customers and want their experience to be as easy as possible. I'll just have to assume they don't care after all they're beginning their third year at this location so being new is not the reason for these oversights.

I'm happy to consult if the owners or manager wants to up their game.

I love coming to warehouse every morning right before I go to the gym or work. The people are so chill and easy to talk to, the first time I came, the girl was so nice and suggested the best flavors possible and I had the best latte I ever tried. I get it pretty much every time I come to Warehouse. ~ Glad to have this amazing cafe right next to me ✨ ~

The coffee and the cappuccino was amazing I wish I would have gotten two cups and the food was hearts and amazing. Will be a customer for life.

I’ve been here a few times. I LOVE their lattes & their banana chocolate chip loaf is amazing. Breakfast is another story. I ordered the chipotle bacon sandwich which comes with an egg. I DO NOT like their eggs. It has a very weird consistency and is shaped like a BLOCK. The sandwich is $6.50. I ask for NO egg but asked if it would be cheaper & I was told no same price. Then I asked for extra bacon, again I was told no. So I basically paid over 6$ for one piece of bacon on bread. Obviously it was my choice to still get it but why wouldn’t you try to supplement something for the egg? Very frustrating!

A great neighbor and community supporter!
Wonderful chai lattes and yummy treats.
Everyone there is so nice! Only negative hmmm I wish it was bigger!!! 😁

This is by far my favorite place to go do work/study/etc. The staff is incredibly welcoming, polite, and efficient. The food is delicious (I rec. the avocado toast or the veggie wrap and add chicken!) and the coffee is great too (:
Also, the PLANTS 🥹🥰.

Loved the apple, walnut and cranberry salad but the cappuccino was way to strong.Everyone was friendly and and helpful.I will go back for the salad again and maybe add a soup. I won't be ordering a cappuccino.

I liked the place so much. The only thing I didn't like is that there was no free wifi.

Each drink is made to order, the people are friendly, and the store has a beautiful decor to it.

I've only ever been through this drive thru but everyone is also so helpful and cheery-- amazing customer service. I never mind the short wait for their amazing handcrafted food and the quality is incredible. GF and Vegan options with a smile!
