Inside the Experience
Nestled in the heart of Astoria, Oregon, Kick Ass Koffee is more than just a coffee stop—it's a local treasure that energizes both early risers and late-night wanderers. With its prime location at 345 W Marine Dr, right inside a convenient gas station, this spot caters to those craving quality coffee beyond regular business hours. The baristas here don’t just serve coffee; they craft memorable experiences with every cup.
What sets Kick Ass Koffee apart is its vast beverage selection and welcoming vibe. From rich caramel lattes to inventive blends like the “blonde bombshell” and “haystack,” the menu caters to diverse palates with a smooth, creamy finish that customers rave about. Those seeking an energy boost beyond traditional coffee will find a remarkable array of energy drinks, available in nearly every popular brand, flavor, and size. This versatility suits the fast-paced lifestyle of locals and travelers alike.
The staff’s warmth and dedication shine through each interaction. Patrons repeatedly praise the friendly, knowledgeable baristas who never miss a chance to put a smile on their faces. As Tom Byers attests, the prices remain reasonable without compromising on quality, making Kick Ass Koffee a go-to for both everyday caffeine fixes and special treats.
While the coffee delights are undeniable, the shop also doubles as the area’s sole drive-up tobacco store, adding a unique twist that meets niche local demands. Though some may find this counterintuitive given the coffee shop ambiance, it underscores Kick Ass Koffee’s commitment to serving the full spectrum of their community’s desires.
For those who value convenience, quality, and a touch of local character, Kick Ass Koffee is a must-visit. Whether you're stopping by for a quick morning jolt or winding down with a chilled caramel white chocolate americano, the experience is seamless and satisfying. This little coffee shack, as fellow traveler Reviews & Runways called it, holds a special place in Astoria’s vibrant coffee culture—balancing charm, variety, and accessibility with impressive finesse.
“ The staff are great, the coffee is amazing and prices are reasonable. Love this place! ”
“ Cute little coffee shack. We’re on a road trip so whenever we see local coffee shops we like to show our support. We had caramel lattes. I thought that it was good but not spectacular. I wasn’t fond of the fact that they also sold cigarettes - it hurts people and the environment ”
“ This is the best coffee stand in the area, they offer great coffee and huge variety. If coffee isn’t your thing and you want an energy drink, not only do they have almost every popular brand, they also have most of the flavors of all the brands, plus they have all different sizes. If your vice isn’t a liquid, they are the only drive up tobacco store in the area. ”
“ I absolutely love stopping here any chance I get. The Baristas are amazing and the products are great quality. I never have something to complain about. ”
“ #1 the coffee was great. #2 its inside a gas station so I ordered my coffee around 830pm!! All other coffee shops are closed then. Love the slide Dixie cup cover. Owner could get cinnamon;) i love cinnamon in my coffee and they didn't have it. That's my only issue. Would definitely go again. Smooth! ”
