"FREE volunteer student-run coffee shop with plenty of outlets and seating! It gets really crowded in the afternoons. The espresso came a little burned, but you can't go wrong with a drip coffee. Choose a mug, rinse out your own mug."

"This place is a lifestyle. I pretty much lived here, and thanks to it's proximity to the EE building where I had to go for class, it was easy living. I really really appreciated the kitchen, which enabled me to cook lunch/dinner rather than eat the carcinogenic campus dining. Coffee was always great too. Furthermore, the community that Front Porch strives to build and support is something really special. So much love radiating from everyone involved. Thank you!!"

"Offer free coffee and a great place to study. Nicest people you will ever encounter. They genuinely want students to succeed so they offer a nice place for students to study."

"If you can even find a seat at this Cal poly student packed place, you're lucky. The volunteers are super friendly and seems to enjoy providing free coffee for students! A great little place."

"As a student at Carly Poly, my experiences at Front Porch have been beyond wonderful. I’ve met and made great friends, I learned how to make good coffee with their self-serve machines, and I’ve made beautiful memories studying and listening to the jazz pianists who stop by and frequently play. I give my highest recommendation to anyone who wants to go to front porch."
