Black Waters Coffee - Beaver Dam

Delicious drinks! However, some staff members appear to lack enthusiasm for their work. If you're in a hurry, you might want to skip this place, as service can be slow. Personally, I don’t mind—I'll just make sure to leave home a bit early if I want to grab a treat. Definitely worth the cost!

The service was commendable; the barista was exceptionally friendly. I noticed a door labeled "Roasterie" at the back and inquired about it. She explained that they used to roast coffee there, but due to the growth of the business, they now have a separate, larger roasting facility. The cleanliness of Black Waters stood out to me, and I appreciated the conveniently located outlets by the seating for charging cell phones and laptops. There was plenty of comfortable seating available, and they even have their own parking lot. Although it’s small, there’s ample street parking around their beautiful building. You can enjoy coffee, hot chocolate, chai, smoothies, and a selection of breakfast and lunch items at Black Waters. I will definitely be returning!

I really enjoy the coffee here, but I think the baristas could be a bit friendlier.

I went here, excited to try a new local coffee shop. I asked the lady at the register what her favorite was, which was the caramel frappe. I decided I would try it, and man I was impressed. I work at Starbucks and am used to the really sugary sweet Frappuccinos, but this was amazing. The coffee they used was wonderful. I can't wait to visit again!

We have been stopping here for several years now. We come to Beaver Dam six to eight times a year. We grab a few bags of coffee beans for home and often order a snack, small meal, and coffee drinks. We are coffee snobs and this meets our standards. It is not perfect coffee, but it IS very good! It is better than all the chains, and one of the best outside of Madison or Milwaukee! Their Ethiopian beans are perfect. We keep coming back so that is saying a lot.
