Lost Dutchman Coffee House

Different type of coffee shop than any I’ve been to in the area. Small, yet open feel. They have a couple couches surrounding a pool table. The rectangular tables are lined up and can fit up to four people. There are a few tables outside as well. They have lots of drink options including smoothies which are made of real fruit, and loose leaf teas. Their house special, the gold rush is the perfect ratio of half and half, 2 shots of espresso, and a bit of vanilla… So heavenly. There are 3 super nice girls here on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. The other staff is not as friendly especially the one guy I’ve seen there. He smokes outside, sits on the curb on his phone, yells staff. I am guessing he is the owner or something. If my 3 favorite baristas ever go, so will I because his negativity weighs on the other girls and it shines through in their customer service and persona.

I like this corner coffee shop. It’s a good place to get some work done (free wifi) or relax. The coffee is excellent, with $ 1 refills. The two staff members were very pleasant.
I ordered a breakfast sandwich, which was good. I do like that they include tomatoes and spinach, but it’s odd that the baby spinach was raw. Still, the taste was good — the assembly just seemed a bit disjointed.
Things I didn’t expect to see: Hot food (breakfast until 10:30). Pool table. Scoop ice cream. Fruit smoothies. Creepy mannequin.
This place would deserve 5 stars, but I’m knocking one off because the other reviewer was right: it’s bad business not to have at least one inside table that someone in a wheelchair can use.

Had the Prospectors Scramble. Really good with fresh spinach. French press coffee was also nice.

From the name sounded interesting and was in need of coffee. It was alright. The place looked like it fit the concept a little. Staff was friendly though.

I have been to this coffee house only a few times and they do have great coffee and I love that they roast the coffee locally.
However, on Saturday morning I stopped in and got a coffee and their Gold Panner’s Sandwich to go. When I got home and went to eat the sandwich I noticed the bacon looked weird, so I open the sandwich to check it out. The bacon was completely raw; not under cooked, it was not cooked at all. The meat was still pink and the fat still milky white, which made the entire thing inedible and had to be thrown it away. This concerns me because (1) I could have gotten severely sick if I had not noticed it and eaten it, (2) apparently their «cook» cannot tell the difference between raw and cooked bacon, and (3) that their raw bacon is that close to their cooked bacon that it can be so easily mixed up. Also, the lack of proper food handling and the lack of knowledge of proper food handling procedures, is a bit concerning to me.

Pretty good coffee, decent service and a location with growing potential now that downtown Mesa is getting a bit livelier (a relative term) with the Light Rail extension and new colleges. Nice looking baked goods too. Noticed that they served meals too and the menu descriptions sounded nice.

Since my friend, for whom I was driving during his job search, was called twice to his place of interview (a good sign, right) in Mesa City Center, this turned out to be a good place for me to wait for him to finish his interviews. I was able to try their Americano, the mango tropics smoothie, and the vanilla elephant chai — all very good, as were the prices. The coffee house has a very comfy vibe, friendly staff, and of course, free wifi. The limited parking can be a problem, but on the plus side, it’s right diagonally across from the intersection corner of the new City Center station of the light rail.

I woke up at 12pm with a hangover and needed some pick me up. It was a Sunday and one of the few spots within walking distance of my hotel that was open. I guess Mesa has some goofy fucking Mormon law or something. Anyway it was a nice spot to get out of the blast furnace and recharge. Very nice counter help and with a mellow vibe. A very low key, non pretentious java den. Had a tasty iced coffee and a very tasty, cheesy breakfast burrito. I’d hit this joint again if I ever found myself with a hangover in Mesa.

I would say at this point I’m a bit of a regular. I have become addicted to their La Manita roast. I highly recommend it. Megan is a total sweetheart, great customer service and always smiling. I’m a little shocked by some other reviews on here. I’ve been in here well over a dozen times in the past year and aside from occasionally being out of my favorite blend in whole bean, I can’t think of anything not to LOVE about Lost Dutchman. Keep that la Manita in stock! :)

I stopped in during a vacation and ended up coming back three times before I headed home a few days later. Staff is knowledgable and welcoming. They roast their own beans and because of that the coffee has a very unique distinguished flavor. I had the 24karat latte every time since it is without a doubt the best coffee beverage I have ever had. The drink is made with regular vanilla syrup but is not called a vanilla latte. The 24 karat latte is appropriately named because the espresso is what makes it so delicious and unique; you could swear it was liquid gold ;)
I would recommend if you are within 20 miles of this place and can appreciate a good cup of coffee then definatly come here. You won’t be disappointed.

I was in Mesa for a meeting and was early. I came across this coffee shop and I was dying for an iced coffee.
I ordered the largest size, as usual, and was very surprised at the extremely high prices. A large iced coffee was nearly $ 7. I was also informed by the Barista that there was a charge for cream. I have never in my life ever been charged for cream in my coffee… The coffee it’s self was a 7 out of 10 so product was good.
As for the shop it’s self, nice place, I love the pool table and sofa. Staff was very nice. Just need to reevaluate the pricing structure so that customers are not nickle and dimed… People hate that.

Don’t do business here. I just got asked to leave because I was simply waiting for a friend so that we could order coffee together. Not sure what the guy with long hair and glasses problem was. I would hope they aren’t racist. I was dressed in a nice t-​shirt and jeans and had a nice pair of sneakers on. By the way I was going to buy coffee for my friend who is a retired Navy chief.

I was just here around 11am today. I was feeling dehydrated so I asked for a glass of water. I was in the mood for coffee, but I wanted to drink some water beforehand. I sat down with the water on the couch, and less than 10 minutes the female barista asked me to leave. She said they can’t allow loitering if I’m not going to buy anything. But at the same time I was not allowed to go outside with the water. So why even give me a water in the first place? I was never even able to finish the water. There was no one else in the coffee house except me. I’ve been to this coffee house twice before and bought something. The female barista served me before, and she was aware of that. However, the male barista (or manager) with pony tail working behind the counter seemed to have it in for me from the start, so he decided to have the female barista do his dirty work and kick me out. She was very friendly about it, so I don’t dock her for doing her job as she was commanded, but this is a moronic policy. It would’ve made more sense to ask me to leave after I finished my water and I was just sitting around for 30 minutes to an hour, and didn’t buy anything, or I was being rude. Their prices are already on the high side. The most redeeming aspect about the coffee house is its location and atmosphere. But it’s certainly not very welcoming. Previously, I was seriously thinking about meeting up with friends here. Unless the owner disapproves of this kind of treatment, I’m doubtful I’ll ever return.
There’s a few things I’m wondering about this place. If you come in with a group, and one person or half your party doesn’t buy anything, do they get kicked out? If it takes you longer than 10 minutes to decide what to order, do you get kicked out? Do you get kicked out simply for being male?
Update 4÷14÷2015: Previous to your comment you said the complete opposite in a private message. In part you said, «I do believe this policy was indeed not followed correctly as you obviously don’t fall into that category of people and I do apologize for what seems to have been an overzealous application of the policy.» I’m not sure if you’re very impatient or psychotic, but it’s only been one day since I left this review, and now you’re threatening and slandering me. I was obviously trying to work things out with you, because I even sent you a message that I left a review.
Victor, I would be willing to go to court with that video surveillance, because I know you’re lying. You have nothing. It’s ok if you don’t like me, whatever, I don’t care. You and your staff are obviously jerks that get off acting elitist. You sell coffee dude, that’s all.
If you actually reviewed your video surveillance, then you should know everything I said was correct. Maybe there’s a slight margin for error, but that is all. What exactly do you think is not correct? What part of my review was in err? Yes, I have negative reviews, but most of these businesses are low rated, or are already closed. There is a good reason why I left a negative review for each of those businesses. Usually I reward a business by going back and spending money there, not by leaving reviews. But you did make one good point, in that I should post a review of what a good coffee shop is like. I haven’t been to your competitors, but I’ll check them out.
One other thing: I got the impression your male barista or manager doesn’t really like dealing with people. When he talked, he mumbled out everything and was very hard to understand. He said I couldn’t go outside on the patio with the water due to having to pick up the glasses later. Pretty insulting to presume I’d even leave a glass out there, but also indicates he’s a lazy employee. Maybe he’s worked for you very well in the past, but he seems to have zero enthusiasm for his job at this point.
Being in your coffee shop is a lot like being back in kinder garden, but with a gun to your head to buy something. I don’t think you know how to run a business, much less a coffee shop properly. BTW, every business that was located where you’re at has failed. Behaving like a jackass to customers is only going to make your failure more imminent, and more likely. I miss the guy who ran the BBQ before, he was great with customers, but even his business flopped at that location.

Went in to use WiFi, it did not work. Sent a note via my Square receipt that I would not be coming back. Here’s the reply I got,“GOOD”. What a terrible attitude. Absolutely will not support a business with such an attitude. Wish I could give them 0 stars.

I was at the Mesa Arts Center this past monday for a concert, which ended up being delayed by 30 minutes, making me almost 2 and a half hours late. I’m European, and we love coffee, so when I spotted this gem from across the street, and decided I needed a pick me up and this was the place to go.
I came in about 10 minutes before closing so I had to make a quick decision as to what I wanted. Since it was warm outside, I decided on a Iced Caramel Macchiato.
Oh my goodness.
It was the most flavorful coffee I have had the pleasure to drink. From the first sip, I was in love. I didn’t realize how long it had been since I had an incredible coffee drink.
I am now trying to come up with reasons to be on that side of town (I live about 45 minutes away) so that I can go again and enjoy their coffee! I might end up just going there for the coffee… who knows :)

This coffee shop had a nice atmosphere and the staff were very friendly. I ordered coffee and a sandwich. I give the coffee 5 stars. The sandwich was delicious, but a bit on the small side for the price.

This coffee shop has the most delightful chai tea lattes. I highly recommend the Elephant Vanilla, iced or cold.
Get french press, specialty coffees, ice cream or affogatos (espresso poured over ice cream), root beer floats, cakes or cookies, 100% fruit smoothies, or pop in for a quick lunch of grilled cheese or a burrito.
A pool table and couches make for an inviting atmosphere. High top tables and bistro chairs line one wall. On the weekends it is very quiet, and an ideal time to sample one of those amazing chai lattes from David Rio. As part of David Rio ’ s corporate philosophy, a portion of their proceeds go to promoting animal welfare.

Nice small coffee shop in Mesa, AZ.
Pleasant atmosphere and friendly service. Good coffee, ice cream, and a pool table. The blues on the radio added a nice cherry on top of the visit.
Tried the «gold rush» (cold). Creamy but needed a little bit more sweetener. All in all, I think they have a nice shop here. I would definitely come here again.

The service was friendly enough but honestly the coffee tasted so watered down I thought it might have been a mistake. There was no rich, roasted flavors there and it was not fresh. I ordered a house coffee and a caramel macchiato iced coffee. The iced coffee wasn’t any better sadly, it actually tasted like dirt! The iced coffee was not cold as well, with a few ice cubes floating on the top watering it down even more. I also ordered ice cream but it was just pretty standard ice cream in a tub, nothing special. The place looked cozy enough, but I won’t be returning. I threw the coffee away after a few sips, it was that bad.

This is a nice little coffe stop. It has character inside like a pool table and pool sticks. A few tables had games like checkers on them.
A variety of different seating options including a couch. Tables and wooden chairs.
They offer a food menu. I didnt order from that, although their blueberry muffin was tasty.
I ordered an appagato. Hella yummy with espresso and ice cream. I had never had one of these. And can now say that I am a fan.
The service was friendly but kinda slow. There was only one person working. So she was taking and making all the orders.
Pricing is about the same as any other java joint.
A neat thing that they sell is green coffee beans for people who roast their own beans at home.
