Baristas is a drive up coffee place, on the north side of Hastings. It’s a quick stop on your way into town or out. They even deliver, so if you need your coffee drinks brought to you, they can do that. They offer the traditional coffee house drinks, like lattes and espressos. They also have a limited selection of pastries. The main negative to them is that they’ve gotten more pricey and restrictive in things like their frequent visits program. Then the prices go up again and they don’t seem to realize that they are causing their loyal customers to cut back on more frequent visits, which then means they have to raise prices again, when you know they were making money on the way they ran things when they first opened, without making all of these changes that make people not as likely to come in.
