If you'd like to review shops in your area - anywhere in the world - please email us. We'd love to talk to you about it. Or just register and then login and review away.

The point of CoffeeKen is to support mom-and-pop shops and to provide customers with information about what the shop offers. This isn't about judging the "best coffee" or "most beautiful shop." If you have a bad experience, just let it go; legally and ethically we are not out to criticize or to cast a negative light on a business, and keep in mind that one man's bitter, undrinkable coffee is another's shot of caffeine. To that end, we won't publish negative reviews, we just won't publish that shop at all.

Here's what we expect:

• Honesty
  • If you work for a coffee shop, please let us know. You can review your shop, and others, but we'd like to note that you are a barrista.
  • If you have a terrible experience, let us know, then just let it go. We just won't publish a review on that shop.
• Curiousity - Don't be afraid to ask questions of the shop employees or owners, generally they're going to appreciate what you're doing, as it amounts to free advertising for them.
  • They're going to know things like the rotation time, name of the coffee roaster, and other undisclosed information
  • If they won't tell you or don't know, just leave that information blank.
• Accuracy
  • Don't make it up.
  • Spell check is your friend. That said, spell check can't tell whether you mean "red" or "read."
• Above all, Have Fun and enjoy your cup of coffee!
