Does Dutch Bros Have Decaf?
According to Dutch Bros, “all espresso drinks have the ability to be made with decaf espresso.” That includes lattes, breves, mochas and Dutch Faves like the Golden Eagle and Kicker. You can also ask for half-caf, which mixes regular and decaf shots for less caffeine.
Note that decaf coffee still contains a small amount of caffeine. It is far less than regular espresso, but it is not zero.
How to Order Dutch Bros Decaf
- Pick any espresso drink, for example a medium iced Golden Eagle.
- Ask for it “decaf” (or “half-caf” for some caffeine).
- Customize the rest as usual: milk, sweetness and toppings.
- If you use the app, look for the espresso option in the drink’s customizations, or order in person if you do not see it.

Does Decaf Taste Different?
Decaf espresso usually tastes a little milder and less bitter than regular espresso, because some flavor compounds are lost when the caffeine is removed. In sweet, milky Dutch Bros drinks the difference is hard to notice, since the flavors, milk and toppings carry most of the taste. If you mostly drink plain or lightly sweetened coffee, you may notice it more; try half-caf first if you want a middle ground.

- Decaf oat milk latte: simple and dairy-free
- Decaf cookie butter latte: a seasonal dessert drink without the late-night jitters
Dutch Bros Decaf: FAQ
Can you get a Rebel decaf?
No. Rebels are energy drinks, so their caffeine comes from the energy base, not espresso. Choose a lemonade or soda for a similar fruity drink without caffeine.
Is Dutch Bros chai caffeine-free?
No. Chai is made from black tea, which contains caffeine.
Does decaf cost extra at Dutch Bros?
Dutch Bros does not mention an extra charge for decaf, but pricing can vary by location, so check the app or ask your Broista.
Whether you are cutting back or just want a treat at night, Dutch Bros decaf and caffeine-free drinks make it easy. For drinks with the most caffeine instead, see our high-caffeine guide.
