151 Coffee - Lawrence: Cozy Local Coffee Spot with Customizable Drinks & Friendly Service

We ordered a hot German Chocolate - 10/10; it was so good. The coconut flavor wasn't too strong, and it was my first time trying coffee with coconut milk. Tasted lovely. Definitely recommend it. The place it also very nice, casual & cozy atmosphere. Reminded us of our canteens back home.

(TL;DR readers be warned, detailed review follows!) Coffee's not anything especially stand-out, but it's definitely drinkable, and at a price range that's reasonable. The sitting area's a tragedy of poor design, largely in that it was designed open to wind and rain flow, without any windbreaks placed at the passageways. Just putting a few triangular signs up would massively help.. Staff sometimes makes a few mistakes (which seems understandable, given how they've got a steady drive-through flow keeping them busy, combined with the fact that customers like myself are constantly throwing them overly detailed order requests), but they're always willing to take care of any issues without hassle if you mention them, so always take a sip before going. Staff is always friendly, patient, welcoming, and supportive with your orders and experience- far more than one'd expect, actually, given that they're all-too-often having to take complex or uncertain orders while standing out in the patio area in poor weather. The refreshers are pretty fantastic, especially for their very reasonable pricing, and the smoothies are quite good for their price, as well. All beverages freely customizable, typically without extra charge, which elevates the entire experience- after all, even a generic tasting coffee's going to be pretty good if you can get its add-ins easily customized to your tastes, while being able to customize refreshers/smoothies without extra charges (other than for any real fruit additions, which are 50 cents each) is a rare and appreciated thing. And 151 has a ton of add-ins you can consider. Rather, there's so many that even the staff has trouble keeping track of all of them! 151 doesn't offer a true cappucino (ie, layered frothed AND foamed milk) but their lattes are decent and they'll happily try to make you up a faux cappucino on request. Honestly, if they just fix the airflow issues (namely, during winter/rainy periods), it'd be an all around recommendable spot. I mean, sure, the coffee's not "local corner cafe" level, but it still easily beats out Starbucks (and at a better price), nevermind lower end places like Dunkins, McDonald's, or Scooters. Really, do give the place a try! Again, the coffee's not at the level of a true gem, but I've tried most places in town, and it's easily among the best, especially outside of the downtown area. Rather, every friend I've brought here thus far has found something to appreciate, enough to keep them going back since. And the smoothies/refreshers are legit delightful. PS: 151 doesn't offer any food products, however, so if you don't mind making the extra trip, I'd recommend grabbing some donuts up from Muncher's before settling in to sip your coffee in 151's patio (or in your car, if the weather's bad. Seriously, fix your airflow problems, guys.. ^.^;) A closer, more filling (or more refresher/smoothie-complimenting) food option is The Fresh Mediterranean just up the street from 151, only about a 2 or 3 minute drive away. The (gyro/kebab-based) food's not especially complex, but it's all very fresh tasting and goes well with the refreshing experience that is 151's non-coffee beverages. And Fresh Meditteranean has indoor seating, so that gives you more options for bad weather.. >.>; Big shoutout to the staff at 151- always appreciate your good vibes!

The best coffee I think I’ve ever had. Sad there’s only one location on the other side of town from my house But I don’t care I make the drive to get it any time I can. Great people every single time. Always nice and will converse in good convo w you while you wait (you don’t see that much anymore) and my coffee has ALWAYS been perfect Highly recommend the iced blondie w their soft top and Carmel drizzle !! Highly recommend this place - fair price (WHICH YOU DONT SEE ANYMORE EITHER) good people great coffee

Picked up some coffee the other day for me and my coworkers and we were all blown away by our drinks. Fantastic coffee and plenty of other options too if coffee isn't really your thing. The staff were friendly and the service was fast, I'll definitely be back!

I’ve heard from multiple people to go here, so I finally decided to give it a go since the grand opening crowd has finally slowed down. Not only was the coffee amazing, so was their service! They are so upbeat and happy, it’s truly a great atmosphere. An extra plus is that they have cheaper options than Starbucks, Scooters, and Dunkin'. Their coffee tastes better too! I got the cinnamon Dulce iced coffee (10/10) and my boyfriend got the Snickers iced coffee (10/10). If you haven’t been here yet, I HIGHLY encourage you to go; & spread the word because Lawrence needs this place needs to stay open!

This was a really positive experience for me and my friend. We had never been here before so the friendly man that took our order also took his time to explain to us what was on the menu, all the varieties of drinks and what was the most popular ect. Which was very helpful since we didn’t know what we wanted. After we ordered it only took like maybe 5 or 10 minutes for our drinks to come out which was pretty impressive since it was jam packed in there. It honestly wasn’t that expensive overall and the amount of beverage you get is generous. This is definitely an outdoor coffee place though so I am eager to see if the patio will still be open when it gets colder out or if it will be only drive thru? I would give it 5 stars if they had food/snacks on the menu too but it’s still has great quality coffee at an affordable price with top notch service.

Love this place! Recently moved back from LA and the staff is adorable and drinks strong and good. Jaydn helped me and she was super helpful in explaining the drink menu and had great style and energy:) Great outdoor space to sit and chat as well Way, way better than Dutch Broa! All

They always make my drink exactly how I want and need it. I order the Dr. Feel Good with sweet cap and no ice I appreciate the friendly and positive staff. This is my go to spot for my morning drinks appreciate all their hard work and attention to detail. Update the other morning I rolled up and the place was hopping I guess numerous sorority’s were there getting drinks the location was short staffed that morning but my normal order taker was calm and made sure my drink order was correct so when the owner checks in please give your early morning staff raises they are true professionals and they work very hard to get things right Update 3 Kaitlyn is the best. She always is positive She smiles and can cheer up the grumpiest customer. Kaitlyn has worked here since I’ve been stopping by. She said they have 8 days of training to work at 151. Sounds intense. Pretty sure that’s why the drinks are always right and they make sure the customer is happy. Kaitlyn should be promoted to manager and given a raise she is the reason the 151 coffee shines. Thank you Kaitlyn for being a positive and attention to detail employee. Chuck-
