5 Reviews on “Motor Oil Coffee Albany Slip 12”
Maybe it’s because they’re still new at this location, but the vibe in there is just chaotic, like no one knows what’s going on 100% but they’re just trying to make money to justify being open so they’ll sell you stuff anyway. Also the woman working there was just back talking the owner the whole time, not a place I imagine myself sitting down and comfortably enjoying some coffee.
I got a large drip coffee, normally $4.50, added cream and syrup to make it taste like french vanilla, what should’ve been just a 50c charge, according to their pricing, ran me $9.00. I don’t think the woman working knew how to ring in the pumps of syrup correctly, or maybe they really do just charge you for every pump of syrup you get, but I won’t be going back after that.
we live in the slip 12 apartments & we love how convenient & good this coffee shop is. we love the 2 dollar bring your own mug refill. the owner is super sweet & kind, we have also had a good experience with all the employees. service is quick, the food we have tried has been very good & we are all around really happy that this coffee shop finally opened!
I was in the store a couple days ago on my way into Huck Finn’s to get a new carpet, and had a very pleasant experience with the barista – I believe her name was Kat/Cat – very kind, warm, excellent costumer service, and the coffee was pretty good too. It was such a pleasant and sincere interaction that I felt compelled to leave this. would/will definitely return in the future
Such a cute place. The vibe was amazing. The latte I had was delicious and the person I was there with said the chai was amazing. Loved the chocolate chip cookie. I’m so glad we went.
As a resident of Slip 12 I was very excited about the idea of having a nice coffee shop in the building. I gave some leeway in the beginning when the store first opened as I understand that opening a new location can be difficult. However, things are just so poorly run and maintained. There are multiple occasions where I had a bad experience and it’s disappointing. Here are a few:
– No one is to be found in the shop, during operating hours, with no indication that the shop was closed ( doors unlocked )
– found that my latte has curdled milk in it ( multiple times )
– Barista tried charging me $3 extra when getting a bag of ground coffee because they “didn’t have any singles”
– hours are strange
– told to leave front tables because I haven’t ordered an item in a while
– inconsistent discounts for residents. Even if after telling the staff that I was in fact a resident.
– there hasn’t been prepackaged coffee other than decaf in about a week.
This is whole shop has been very disappointing in the end. They had the opportunity to make this a place for residents to go and hang out and capitalize on the 300+ residents in the building, but everything seems rushed and not planned out… especially the little bodega section. The one redeeming quality is most of the baristas are pleasant to talk to, I just don’t think they have any experience with making coffee to be honest.
