The coffee shop is located on the left side of the check-in desk at the Thompson hotel. For the price, the coffee was just OK. Staff was very friend and the atmosphere was nice.

Huge shoutout to Taylor at Duel Coffee—an absolutely exceptional barista! Not only does she make a mean cup of coffee, but her quick service, great conversation, and genuine attentiveness made my visits a highlight. She went above and beyond to make sure I had the caffeine boost I needed to power through some long days, and I truly appreciated her kindness and energy. Thank you, Taylor—you’re the best!
