FAQ

The common questions.

Ordering, allergens, the subscription, dogs and wifi, wholesale, parking — sorted before you ask.

Visiting
  • Online order-ahead is on the way — for now, the fastest path is to walk up to the bar or call us at (503) 555-0148 for a large or catering order. When ordering launches, you’ll be able to build your drink, pay, and skip the line right from this site.

  • Yes and yes — free wifi, outlets at most seats, and a no-glare policy on staying a while. We do ask that you skip phone calls at the bar and keep tables free for others on busy weekend mornings.

  • Very. The Belmont-side patio welcomes well-behaved dogs, and the bar keeps pup cups (a little whipped cream) on hand. Inside is service-animals only, per county health rules.

  • Street parking runs along Belmont and the side streets, there’s a bike corral right out front, and the 15 bus stops two blocks away. Mornings are easiest before 8.

Drinks
  • Never. Oat, almond, and soy are free on every drink. Just tell your barista how you take it.

  • We’ll always do our best. Our space handles milk, tree nuts, peanuts, eggs, soy, and wheat, so we can’t guarantee any item is free of trace allergens — but tell us what you’re avoiding and we’ll guide you to the safest options and prepare your drink with care.

  • Genuinely, yes. Our Nightshift Decaf is a Colombian decaffeinated with the sugarcane (EA) process, which keeps the coffee’s character intact. It pulls a real shot and tastes like chocolate and cherry. We can make any espresso drink decaf.

Subscription
  • Pick a plan (one, two, or three bags), choose how often you want it, and tell us roaster’s-choice or your own picks. We roast, bag within three days, and ship to your door — with the roast date on every bag. You can skip, swap, or pause from your account any time. (Billing and recurring shipping are a planned online feature in this template.)

  • Any time, no penalty. Skip a delivery if you’re traveling, change your cadence, or cancel outright — all from your account. We’d rather you have fresh coffee you’ll actually drink than a backlog of bags.

  • Whole bean is best for freshness, and it’s our default. If you’d rather we grind it, tell us your brew method (espresso, pour-over, French press) and we’ll grind to match.

  • We ship anywhere in the continental US, usually within three days of roast. Shipping is free on the Duo and Explorer plans and over $35 on the Solo. Local subscribers can also choose café pickup and skip shipping entirely.

Wholesale
  • We do — to cafés, restaurants, offices, and grocers. We offer wholesale pricing, equipment support, barista training, and a reliable roast-and-deliver cadence. Email wholesale@foglifter.example or visit the wholesale page to start.
