Harrisons Coffee Co - Winnipeg

To the barista with the silly goose sweat shirt red Wu-tang tee: you are an absolute gem. Your early morning welcoming vibe ability to make a life changing Canadiano is noticed and appreciated.My husband and I visited Harrison’s every morning this week. We arrived before sunrise, chatted with the barista, got our drinks, and went on a sunrise walk. The drip coffee was smooth, the service was impeccable and personal (she remembered us! And our orders! Everyday! , and I had the pleasure of being introduced to the Canadiano (drip coffee a shot of espresso . Our visits to Harrison’s were such a bright spot each day during our trip. Highly recommend pairing your drink of choice with a sunrise stroll on the river walk, but if sitting is more your speed, this spot is quiet and peaceful.

Great lattes! If you get the chance to try their chocolate, it will blow your mind! Al diligently sources his coffee and cocoa beans to ensure equitable transactions. Excellent locations in the city.Parking: No free parkingWheelchair accessibility: Strollers

Nice cafe place to grab a tea before you walk around the forks. This place is cute and a bit quieter than the cafe in the forks.The staff was nice and they had decent prices. Only downside is no outlet chargers or wifi if you want to study

Disappointed and underwhelmed.I gave them two stars, as I like the hot chocolate I had from them last winter.But yesterday’s experience was subpar, went on a Saturday evening. We were the only customers there, and there were two staff working. They rang my friend’s order first. Since there were two of them (which is usual for a coffee shop). I went right up to the till after my friend to give my order. The two of them were both at the bar, chatting and making two drinks which took longer than it should and is not a two-person job (I know that because I used to be a barista). I waited by the ordering area for 3+ minutes. (People may think it’s not a long time. But we were the only people there, and since there are two of them, why can’t they take my order right after my friend’s then proceed to their chatter by the bar. It gives a poor impression of the baristas and the cafe by ignoring a customer that was clearly in plain view and for the customers to hear the baristas chatting nonstop by the bar).One of them finally rang my order, got the size of my drink wrong, and made it quicker than my friend’s. Midway through making my drink another customer came and they quickly attended to him. So, I want to understand why they had to make me wait when they can clearly do better than that?This may appear petty to some, but the service was subpar and the drinks were mediocre, too – which I didn’t expect because I liked the last one I had before.PSMy friend, who was also an ex-barista, said that maybe one of the staff are on break. Then they shouldn’t have been on the floor, and if they’re helping the other, shouldn’t it be faster than what happened?
