Reviews for Five Lakes Coffee in Kalamazoo, MI
I have loved 5 Lakes every since we discovered it over a year ago! Clean (even the bathroom), modern feel, friendly staff, the... coffee is tasty (dark roast), the one choice of breakfast sandwich with parm-garlic sauce is SO tasty. We have told manyfriends about it, as well as have brought family when in town to visit. HOWEVER, we just found out they have donated 20% ofearnings to a local anti-abortion agency, so now all of us are having to make decisions about NOT returning. Such abummer! It's unclear to me whether this was a one-time weekend donation or whether this is the policy for the year. Pleaseclarify. Thanks. Read more
This business donates to Christian anti-abortion charities with the money their customers spend in their facility, gross! As a... woman I am extremely offended by this, and it is very unprofessional and inappropriate to instill your personal religiousbeliefs into your business. I won?t be eating here again and I?ll be sure to tell my friends and family not to also! Keeppolitics and religion out of professional workspaces! Just weird! Read more
They were real nice & cute coffee shop with nice ppl working inside! I loved multiple size choices and multiple flavors for your... latte as well! A guy barista was so nice helping us order for the first time. There were so many tables with power outletsavailable near by. I?d absolutely come back & recommend to any coffee lovers????????????????

My partner and I love coming to Five Lakes Coffee! The drive thru is really fast and the menu is super diverse depending on what... you like. My partner usually gets a Cold Brew with Vanilla Cold foam and Five Lakes version is much better than Starbucks. Theyhave a variety of desert bars and scones as well :) Read more
Five Lakes Coffee on Main St, Kalamazoo, is roomy, well lit, and with warm and attentive client service. It also has a... comfortable parking lot. We come on some Sunday afternoons to play the ancient game of Go with the Kalamazoo Go Club. We feel athome. Read more
One of the best coffee shops in Kalamazoo! I cannot recommend the Five Lakes chain enough, but this location in particular has... extremely friendly and helpful employees, like Lizzie, who helped us. Everyone?s drinks were excellent and when we gave them oneorder incorrectly and realized our mistake they quickly corrected it free of charge. Great place to come for business, meeting afriend, or just enjoying the peace and quiet. Loved it! Read more
This place is really annoying and causing problems in the neighborhood behind it. The township made an initial requirement to... have a wall up when this location was a McDonalds and a KFC as a sight and sound barrier for local residents as this kind ofdrive thru business is really invasive. Five Lakes decides WITHOUT TALKING TO RESIDENTS to cut a path in this barrier and placea gate for "foot traffic" while they do nothing to maintain the area behind it (the neighborhood does this with volunteers andwe have been for years. The property is owned by the road commission and they don't maintain this area) we were initially toldthat the gate would be locked when five lakes is closed. It never is. In fact never once even at 2am has this gate been locked.Instead teens and others use it as a way to trounce through the neighborhood and litter (that I have to pick up because theyhaven't even put a trash can out and, again, neighborhood volunteers maintain this area). This gate was also used as a way for afew teens to escape the police when they shot up the marathon next door and, as a way for them to hop through the neighborhoodas they are smoking underage and causing more problems. Thanks five lakes for turning my front yard into a playground forhoodlems. Read more
