  Friendly staff, tasty drinks, a good vibe, free WiFi, and if you want they have beer. Yep, good place to hang out.

  I have been a regular here for quite a while now (two years?) and can honestly say I've never tried a drink that I didn't enjoy. The Alabama Stinger is a menu highlight.
  
  Be forewarned that seating can be difficult to find unless you visit during the morning hours, but Prevail is an excellent place to study during the quieter times of the day (early morning and late afternoon). On days with nice weather, the outdoor tables provide a beautiful view of Samford Hall and the old part of campus.
  
  However, one evening my friend and I were loudly and snark-ily lectured by a barista for leaving our things unattended and spread out on a table when, in actuality, we stepped out for ~15 minutes to grab food, and there were plenty of tables open for others when we left and when we returned. One negative incident among so, so many positive ones, but it definitely put an unwelcome damper on my love for this place. I've never had a problem with other customers or with the staff while leaving my things for short periods of time, and I tried to talk with the barista afterwards to encourage him to handle situations with customers differently in future, but he had clocked out for the day. I like spending time with friends and doing homework without being unnecessarily lectured within earshot of a room of people whose heads are turned to see what the commotion is about. I would imagine that's a pretty universal desire.
  
  Otherwise, I really love Prevail, and Auburn is lucky to have it. Definitely worth your time to check out with a book in hand or a friend in tow.

  Ann and Winchester educated me on what GREAT coffe is! Seriously--this is where you want to relax with a hot pressed cup of Guatemala or Ethiopian.
