Bikini Baristas (no pics to keep it work safe please)

[joao01]

Yes, I did a search first, and there was a thread from last year on the subject last year, but it looked like there were a lot of pics that either no longer work, or were a bit too risky to have on work screens. Plus creepy pics of a dude in a towel with a coffee mug.

I've been on a bit of a Bikini coffee kick that last few days so I thought I'd share some of my favorite ones and see what else is out there that you all like.

For those of you who don't know, here is a directory of darn near every Bikini Coffee stand in the PNW: http://bikini-baristas.com. The front page does have one bikini pic, but it is pretty "bland" so you are probably safe to pull that one up at work.

Not too far from the Tacoma Dome is the shop that I consider to be the "Gold Standard" so far. Smokin' Hot Espresso on River Road (http://www.yelp.com/biz/smokin-hot-espresso-tacoma).

By no means is it the best, but one really nice feature it seems is that the gals will post pics daily on their facebook page so you know who is working, what the outfit is, etc. A lot of stands could learn from their website and use of social media to try and connect with their customers. There is also a companion shop across the narrows from what I understand.

Out on Canyon Rd in Puyallup, Temptations Espresso. They have some pretty good scenery. Sorry, not much info for them on the web (http://www.yelp.com/biz/temptations-espresso-puyallup)

In Kent, a bunch have closed down but a relatively new on to the market is Bikini Beans (http://www.yelp.com/biz/bikini-beans-espresso-kent-2). The gal in the morning is the owner from what I understand and both she and the afternoon gal have been around the Bikini espresso circuit for a few years. The coffee was damned good. Got a smoothie the other day and the afternoon gal (either by necessity or by choice) demonstrated her flexibility a bit because of where the ice and syrup were.

Honorable mention: Love You A Latte, right on Military Rd Off I-5 (exit 149). http://www.yelp.com/biz/love-you-a-latte-kent. Seem really nice, and although the....um....product may not be first class they really seem to do a good job with what they've got.

I've been personally really disappointed lately by LadyBugs espressos. I had first visited the one in UP, but yesterday the one in Auburn on Military Rd was....cold, with a side of Mosquito bites.

How about you? What places/baristas do you like? Provide links if possible, but let's keep it work safe. Any suggestions in the Kent/Auburn/Fed Way area?

For the most part Cowgirls seems to have gone downhill. Anyone like the Baristas chain?

One "peeve" of mine is if they cal me "hon" or something else like that. I come for coffee and scenery, not condescension

I'd go if any of them actually had tits. Most have no tits with stickers covering man sized nipples, like what's the point? I want thick chicks like 36-38DD and an ass to match. An Asian boy with long hair and makeup doesn't work for me.

If you want a good cup of coffee, Bikini stands are not the place to go. Eye candy sure, but most of the times they are too concerned about Facebook status updates and when their next tanning session is.

That's weird.....

Pretty sure the small pic to the right in the first link is my EX's niece. I clicked and yep...it hast to be.

I could care less about slut huts. I'm blessed as a fat man to have a smokin hot wife at home and I actually prefer my coffee maker to not use the words "like, um, totally, and OMG"

But, I do always get rubber neck as I drive past the stands.

My girl is way hotter than any of the ex-strippers at the slut huts. When she makes me coffee in her underwear I don't have to pay $9 for liquid shit and drive away with an awkward teased boner.

Dutch Bros. Coffee. Sweet gals in normal but well fitting clothes, friendly possibly homosexual/bicurious men, but the coffee is delicious and the service is always A+.

Bigfoot Java. 24/7, pretty baristas, wearing flattering yet family safe attire and super attitudes. One of my favorite places is off Pac Hwy by Grand Prix Raceway in Lakehood. A cutie there makes a perfect Bigfoot Extreme with a shot of peppermint...she knows my weakness and loves my truck so we always have a great conversation.

If I want to see women with minimal clothes on, I'll go to those places. Don't **** with my coffee.

Thanks for that.

I know we don't have explicit rules for this (maybe we should, I've been thinking about it), but please try to keep the non-NSFW threads as family-friendly as possible, so nobody gets a nasty surprise when a boss or spouse walks up behind them. Maybe the avatar guidelines are a good rule:
Avatar Acceptability Guidelines

Linking to non-NSFW (bikinis, etc.) photos is fine. You can even post them here, but please use the "spoiler" tag so someone has to deliberately click on it to see the photo.

Thanks, everyone.

Damn! This first one I go too and the last one.

You will not catch me in one of these places. If any of you need to know where they are I have them GPSed so I "don't " go to one by accident

We won't catch you there cause you got banned after you went to one in a goddamned bath towel.

We have one in vancouver someplace, ain't been there, probably won't either, I'm picky bout my coffee.
