Every month my philanthropic group meets for a coffee drop in around the Towson/Hunt Valley area. We chose Baltimore Coffee & Tea this time and it did not disappoint. The limited seating might have deterred several members from joining but BC&T employees were extremely accommodating and found extra chairs for us to have enough room for about ten of us to gather and enjoy coffee, tea and bagels. We met Sharon who came over and greeted our group and even offered a tour later in the spring. How delightful! BC&T has a full display of wonderful local fare and gifts for purchase. An incredible assortment of teas are available, too. Great place to buy gifts and enjoy some tasty food and beverages - SHOP LOCAL!! Cool vibe and positive staff. read more

Made this stop as part of the Maryland cafe passport. It was a perfect spot for good coffee, sandwich snacks, and just a little unique shopping. The coffee was really good. Perfect temperature, not bitter at all, and seemed like they really take care of their beans. If shopping for beans, I don't even know where you would begin because it is just half a shop worth of whole beans to choose from. I ordered breakfast sandwiches and they were just ok. I wouldn't necessarily stop here for the food, but it was a good pairing with being there for the coffee. read more

As soon as you enter, you become aware of how great coffee can smell, pure pleasant aromas that you want to take with you. We were enjoying this afternoon visit. I can't begin to tell you how many flavors there are, one side of the shop has many open bags holding coffee beans ready to ground to your specs. In the center, they have additional items. and they offer a series of about 6 coffees for sampling or pour a cup. They have munchies like biscottis,, bagels as I had ordered a bagel. Then sked where they get their bagels from, I expected either made in-house or a fancy bakery. The young man surprised me with his answer: Sysco. read more

Biggest selection of coffee beans and tea in the area! I've been coming here for years, and it never disappoints. There are tons of flavors and styles of coffee beans - you can get whole bean or ground. They also have tons of tea- bag style or loose leaf. There's a little area in the middle with lots of treads and gifts from other local baltimore businesses like chocolate covered pretzels and dog treats. Lastly, you can get all kinds of fresh coffee, sandwiches, and pastries. There are a few tables to sit and eat, but it is small so it's mostly grab and go. It can be packed at times so be patient and support a great local business! read more

BUYER BEWARE!!! CHECK YOUR RECEIPTS!!! Visited this location today and was shocked the blatant oversight of over charging customers. Ordered a breakfast sandwich that $5.50, however, they charged per item on sandwich which made the sandwich $6.25. I strongly believe they have been overcharging customers forever. Needless to say they were kind enough to refund and acknowledged this oversight. Hot coffee, was thin but smelled great. Passed on it all. Highlight... Check your money before leaving. 6/24/2025 read more

Absolutely loved this place! All of the drinks are reasonably priced, and well worth it. I tried the Frozen Spiced Chai, and it was so refreshing and made for a good afternoon treat! The cashiers were nice and helpful too. The shop itself is very cool to look around, especially the area where they have all the different bags of coffee beans! This is definitely a hidden gem in the Timonium area! read more

Baltimore Coffee & Tea - Frozen Spiced Chai - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Timonium, Maryland

I have shopped here for years. Always very happy with the friendly service and the selection of coffee beans. My problem was with the food. I ordered a roasted veg panini. It took a full 30 minutes to receive my order! I am not exaggerating - confirmed this with my receipt. The two food prep workers were chatting and not at all busy. Only 2 sandwiches were handed to customers in that 30 minutes. Then, as I was finally being handed my order by the male worker, a female food worker, who had her hair tied on top of her head, kept scratching under her hair tie with her fingernails and then handling food. It was disgusting. I do love this place, but I will never order food here again. read more

Great selection of Coffee shown in big burlap bags. Sandwiches, soups and pastries are good too. Friendly environment

Love it! Great Coffee spot. Glad I found it. I order the standard Cafe Au Lait, and try their different coffees, which they roast themselves. I also buy half a pound of beans (different kinds) to bring home to Connecticut. The coffee is smooth, taste and the aroma you smell in the place is amazing. Love the fact that I smell like a roasted coffee bean as I leave. Their food is good as well. This is the spot you don't want to miss when you visit. read more

Been buying coffee beans here for years . High quality and a very diverse selection. Would highly recommend to anyone

I live in Los Angeles but have family in Baltimore county & compared to LA there are not that many independent/ small business coffee shops in Balt Co! That's why I love this place! I've been getting coffee to brew at home (yes I take it back with me to LA) for years! They have the biggest variety of regular & decaf coffees that I've ever seen. I love iced mochas & they make a good one which I usually add coconut syrup to! The price is about the same as the big coffee shops but the size is much bigger! In most coffee shops I get a large but here the large is huge maybe 32 oz I'm not sure but unless u need to be pumped all day I get a medium which is equivalent to a.....dare I say it Starbucks venti which we all know they are convenient but if there is a mom & pop coffee shop I'm there all day!! This place is always packed & they have food as well although I've never tried it. The parking & getting in & out of traffic can be tricky but well worth it. read more

This place is wonderful. Coffee and tea selection is awesome both served in house as well as can be bought to take home. Menu is extensive and delicious. Nice dine in sitting area and staff is super nice. read more

Was up this way for work the other day, so I decided to pop in for a quick treat. I've seen Baltimore Coffee served at other cafes, but never been to one of their own locations. They had SO much coffee! Obviously that's their whole thing, but I just wasn't expecting what I walked into. I could not believe the number of bags of beans they had along the counter lining the entire wall. They had such creative names for all of the too! I wasn't expecting there to be so much going on once inside - it felt like there was so much to look at. There's also a gift shop-like display out in the middle of the waiting area with little goodies you can purchase and take home, like granola or coffee mugs. I ordered an everything bagel with veggie cream cheese and a salted caramel latte. I wasn't blown away by either of them. I liked the cream cheese on the bagel - the veggies were chopped in bigger pieces so they gave a nice crunch. I wanted to love the latte, but I just didn't get much of the salted caramel flavor at all. They have so many different drink options, so I'd definitely like to go back and give them another shot. I really feel like I need a second trip just to truly take it all in! read more

What a gem! I see this place all the time when I'm running errands in Timonium and finally had some time to stop in. I ended up going the next weekend as well. Here's what I've had: Iced Creme Brulee - which is flavored with vanilla and caramel. This was my favorite drink so far. I don't love my coffee to be too sweet but I like some flavor and I like it creamy. 10/10 Iced Salted Caramel - which is flavored with chocolate and caramel sea salt. I enjoyed this one but I felt like it lacked a little in flavor. 7/10 Iced Latte with whole milk - Classic, just what you would expect Poppyseed and almond muffin - a little dry 6/10. My toddler would give it a 10 though, he couldn't get enough Toasted Six Grain Bagel with Butter - IDK WHY but this bagel spoke to me. It was wonderful, especially for $2.15 Toasted Asiago Cheese Bagel with Butter - Again, loved it Bag of whole bean Kenya AA - Just made a pour over with this today. It was great but nothing noteworthy. Prices are super reasonable. The staff here are all really helpful and friendly. Highly recommend! read more

Awesome place. Though ironically I'm not a coffee fan. A buddy of mine and I were rock climbing at the gym just down the road and he wanted to come here for lunch after. Great food. Great and really polite service. I got the turkey brie panini. Was delicious. But no coffee for me. They also have a pretty large area for selling coffees, teas, soaps, honeys, and lots of chachkes. Didn't really look but will next time. Nice quiet place. Will definitely try it again sometime. read more

I had the starry night iced latte which was English toffee, hazelnut and chocolate and it was delicious! The shop is so decorative and festive and it seems divine! It seems it was pretty busy so it took a little bit of time to get my coffee but it was well deserved. Will definitely try this place again read more

Brewed coffee is weak. Bulk beans excellent Sandwiches hit or miss Employees are great- but not loving the masks everywhere. Not sure why, weird? read more

What a fun place! Can order specialty sandwiches even for breakfast. Quality coffee options to go or can get free refills if you dine in. Tuna was good. Nothing out of the park but a hearty meal indeed. Can't go wrong here. Warm and friendly staff. Patrons come and go and generally elderly dine in . Birthday cake muffin is okay and very aesthetic. Maybe not my best choice, but Sometimes I want to be a kid or pick a less common option. The hidden cream cheese filling helps this item stand out more. Can shop around too. Free Wi-fi isn't working here sigh You know you're a hard core Yelper when you ask the business to take a picture of their coffee canisters lol. read more

Maybe this is a hidden gem or maybe I'm just late to the party. Either way, this is a cozy spot for lunch and breakfast. It reminded me a bit of a coffee shop from your favorite small-town rom-com. I loved walking around and looking at all of their products while waiting for my smoothie. I ordered the Wildberry smoothie, which tasted a bit like apple juice, but it was good. The chocolate croissant was good as well. I didn't realize I would be getting the one directly out of the case which sometimes I can be weird about just because it wasn't really covered. There were so many options for coffee and tea, so next time I'll definitely take my pick from one of those. read more

Baltimore Coffee & Tea - BYO sandwich - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Timonium, Maryland

My first time here. I have a class in the area and kept driving past this place . Finally decided to try it today Had the cold brew with sugar free French vanilla syrup. Not sure if it the coffee or the syrup but the flavor was terrible. I couldn't even finish it. Not sure I'll ever return. Sad though. I had such high hopes. And for $5 +coffee I was expecting better presentation. I just got a plain plastic cup with no logo. Weird... read more

I've been coming here for 18 years. Hasn't changed much since then but why change if it's still going strong and has a good loyal following. I love all the flavors of coffee here. At any given time there is a plethora of choices if you want beans or ground to go. They also have a great variety of decaffeinated coffee. Everyday they have different choices for their daily coffees. They switch them up, but have a few that are recurring ones. I personally find their coffee on the weak side, even the darker roasts. I'm not saying they don't taste great, I sometimes prefer a strong full body flavor coffee and I don't feel like I get this here. But I do enjoy their coffee, I just tend to drink it black or put very little creamer. As for food, I usually stick with the bagels here. Soft, fresh and have a good crunch to them. Get it toasted with butter AND peanut butter (this is a must! And so good) goes perfect with a cup of coffee while sitting and chatting with friends. They do have lunch sandwiches and other drink options on the menu. They also have a incredible amount of teas. If you are searching for one to try, I'm sure it's there. It's like the Great Wall of tea. They also have cute unique gifts as well. The people working here are always friendly and tend to quickly and efficiently move people through the line. read more

When you walk in to Baltimore coffee and tea you get hit by many amazing smells. The feel of the whole store is great. Food is a little average and slightly overpriced but the coffee is great as well as the tea. Service was quite nice, highly recommend walking here if you can. read more

This is such a nice place for meeting a friend and having a coffee, and a light snack or meal. They also have a fabulous selection of teas or coffee -you name it and they have it. I use to find lot's of novelty gifts as well. They have gotten away from that but I surely will be going back read more

Try this place for sure. It's a wonderful cafe for coffee and breakfast and Julia made me the best bagel sandwich - delish! I had special requests and they were fulfilled with a smile. read more

I needed some caffeine and was in the area so I stopped here for some coffee. The menu looked good and the reviews looked decent. Walked in, looked at the menu again because I didn't see any iced coffee. There was no one in line, there were several team members behind the counter and one on the same side as me, it looks as if she was doing some work related stuff. The team member noticed I was ready to order and she took my order. She didn't speak or anything, I'm not sure what was going on with her but her personality was underwhelming. She was talking to her co-workers, smiling, and having a great time while making my drink. After she made my drink she left it on the counter. No "thank you" "have a great day" no smile or anything. I made it a point to tell her thank you and to have a good day. After writing this I just realized she did not wash her hands or use sanitizer before making my drink, ewww. Anyway I don't think I will come back anytime soon or ever. I didn't get the woman's name but she was petite with dark hair. I went yesterday, Sunday, July 11th around 11am. Management, tell your team to do better it costs business money when team members provide poor service regardless how good the product is. read more

Baltimore Coffee & Tea - Small iced coffee with oatmilk - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Timonium, Maryland

I wanted to check this place out because they had great reviews on Google and I wanted to get out of Baltimore City. It's a small place that feels bigger than it is on the inside. I'd hoped that my partner and I would be able to grab seating and hang out but all the tables were full and there wasn't as much seating as I thought there was. After taking time to assess the menu we decided on what we wanted and placed our order. They sell a lot of different full bean coffees you can buy to take home and coffee centered knick knacks for the kitchen. We explored around the shop until our coffees were ready and unfortunately neither of us were impressed. My partner got a regular hot latte and I got an iced almond joy latte. My coffee was bitter on the front end which overshadowed the flavors of the latte on the back end. My bf said the same about his coffee, almost like the beans were burned. Maybe it was an off day but we won't be returning. read more

I've always had a good experience but lately the gift card reader hasn't worked. I paid once for my coffee but won't again. I don't live close and they won't make exceptions. Horrible way to do business. I would normally give 5 stars but only getting one. read more

Worst coffee I have ever had. I ordered a cold brew. I normally drink my coffee black. It's tasted do bitter and bur t. I had to add sugar and cream to over power the burnt taste but I ended up throwing $6.00 coffee in the trash Yuck read more

This place is not too friendly. I ordered a small hot latte and was walking around the shop when someone called out "small hot latte." I thought it was ready, so I looked towards the counter. They didn't place it anywhere easy to see, and I didn't find it(so I thought oh maybe it's not ready, someone is telling another person to make it). I then walked back to the counter and stood in front of them, waiting for five more minutes before finally deciding to ask where my latte was since I saw many other people who came after me getting their drinks. (Their drinks were placed on the cashiers counter.) They pointed out that my drink was on the coffee tank, which was different from where other people got their drinks. I was confused why they couldn't just tell me when I stood in front of them. I felt stupid and wasted five minutes. Who wants to walk into a coffee shop and feel that way? read more

Always good lattes and baked goods whenever I'm here. I always go with a flavored latte and a muffin, my favorite is the creme brûlée latte or the pumpkin spice in the fall! This is a great spot for breakfast and/or lunch with friends and it always smells good. Sometimes the staff is a bit aloof, but overall is pretty good service. I wish they were open more, as they open kinda late to get coffee before work. read more

A overwhelmingly large number of cofee flavor options. You can get a cup of coffee or a bag (ground any way you like or whole beans) to take home. There is also a large selection of teas. There are also many other items like mugs, strainers, etc. The staff is helpful and friendly and the pices are reasonable. This is my go to place for coffee to brew at home. read more

OMG! OMG! OMG! Somebody pinch me, I'm in heaven! 6.8 million flavors here, I tried the Rasberry Soy Latte today! I think it's fantastic that they have just as many sugar-free flavors as they have regular! Lord knows I love me a true blue coffee shop, but I do appreciate that they sell many many different types of teas from different locations as well as food items. They have danishes, other Bakery items, as well as soups, salads and sandwiches! And the coolest of cool part about this place is it's very spacious, it smells so good in there, and they actually have a window where you can see the coffee grind/ tea being stirred!! .... To be honest I don't know what they're stirring but it looks absolutely cool! Haha I cannot wait to come back over and over and over again to sample many other items on that menu! read more
