After living in the area for five years, my wife and I finally decided to give this place a try after reading the reviews on Yelp. Well, the reviews were right on target. This place has a huge and amazing selection of coffee from Central and South America and many other places around the world. They offer both beans and ground coffee, or they will grind the beans while you're in the store. There is decaffeinated and caffeianted coffee and teas. Their freshly brewed coffee is absolutely delicious. The store is well organized, clean and neat. The staff members are cery helpful and friendly. There are benches and stools both inside and outside the store if you wish to sit and have it at the store. There is paid metered street parking available. We purchased two cups of coffee and several packs of ground coffee. I highly recommend this business for both coffee and tea lovers. We will definitely be back. read more

Unbelievable selection of various coffees and teas. Knowledgeable staff. Quick and courteous service for drinks to go. Small but unique selection of accessories for coffee and tea. Small selection of wood handmade bread knives, serving trays, tongs, and cheese boards. As for ambiance, We sat on the mini front porch and watched the world go by as we enjoyed our drinks. There is also indoor seating if preferred. read more

My wife and I discovered this place well on vacation in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia, Virginia, 25 years ago every time I drive back to Connecticut from North Carolina. I will stop there and pick up a couple of pounds of coffee. The story of this enterprise is world class the coffee is internationally acclaimed I order from them at least every other month . I'm hooked and I don't care what it cost to ship it to me. read more

Greencastle Coffee Roasters - At the ready - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Greencastle, Pennsylvania

More than 20 years ago, one of the Dads in the Boy Scout Troop told me, as we drove past Greencastle, that he bought his coffee there. At the end of the week of summer camp, I stopped in to check out their coffees. I've been buying whole bean flavored coffees from them ever since. Greencastle Coffee went with me to Normandy and Paris. Two pounds went to Afghanistan with the 36th Infantry Division (the Gingerbread was the bigger hit!) I just love their coffees. read more

Absolutely, the Best coffee I ever had, the customer service was excellent, the owner waited on my niece's and I. I live in Shipp. and sometime travel through Greencastle on our way to Tennessee.

Greencastle Coffee Roasters - Photo of Cindy's SPECIAL DELICIOUS Blend - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Greencastle, Pennsylvania

This is the best store to buy ground coffee, coffee beans, coffee syrups, keurig pods, and tea. As soon as you open the door to enter the smell of coffee enters your nose and if you are a coffee lover like myself, you will become instantly happy. The workers a very helpful and friendly. read more

I have gotten the sampler packets for friends to try different blends and coffees. They have enjoyed them and found some they really like. I've only bought coffee here -- haven't found anything else in the store that interested me (didn't meet my quality, price, selection sweet spot). I agree with another reviewer about the attitude -- they don't seem to like people looking around and do start following you around. I may pay more attention to the service when I go in the next time to see how it compares to years past. I was not aware that the owner changed, if that is the case. In the past, the owner really knew her coffees and was very helpful in selecting new sample packs to try. read more

So first, many of these reviews are from before they sold the business to new owners and moved locations. So this review is a long time coming. The old place used to be great. Huge variety of coffee, tea and even fresh roasted peanuts and asian goods. The new place keeps a similarly large variety of coffee and tea, and still sells fresh roasted peanuts. Much the same as the old place. So why the low review? 2 reasons: 1) the owners have a crap attitude and 2) almost everything in that place that has an expiration date is expired. As such, how can I trust the things that don't have an exp date? From the moment you walk in the store the owners make you feel very unwelcome. Their attitude is barely "neutral", and that's how they greet you. If you dare ask them questions their attitude shifts to something like an "annoyed teenager" (these people are at least in their 60s by the way). Ask too many questions, or take too long, then they start watching you like a hawk. (see more on this below) Take a walk down the asian foods/goods aisles and check the dates. Months, sometimes a year+ past expiration. When I mentioned that many things were expired, I was met with hostility. Not concern that they are selling old goods, but anger at being notified of it. The woman then followed me around the store, pretending to be cleaning. I don't know if she thought I was going to steal something or what. I'm a vanilla-ass, middle-aged white man and she's acting like the store owner from Boyz in the Hood. I kept expecting her to say she felt sorry for my mother. The coffee also has it's own issues. Again, no dates so how can you tell when something has expired? I 100% believe they would keep coffee on the shelf until it sold, even if it took years. As someone else mentioned, the flavors are off with the in-house roasting as well. Either they are not cleaning the machine often enough, they're selling old coffee, or they are not adjusting the temps for each type of bean (probably all three). read more

This location is an absolute GEM for any coffee-lover. Whether you are searching for flavored coffee, specialty-grown, or simple bulk purchases, GCR is incredible. I always stop by here before heading off to college to stock up for the semester on K-Cups, pouches of green or oolong teas, and freshly roasted coffee beans. I have been shopping here for at least five years, and I have never tried one of every single option of coffee roasts just yet. There is not just coffee to explore here, but a wide range of teas as well as East/South Asian snacks and foods. Not to mention the incredible peanuts that my parents and family adore. I could get (and have been) lost in this store for over an hour for a visit, there's so many different things to explore with the coffee and beyond! read more

Great spot to find a wide variety of original & decaf coffee & tea. Kenyan, Rwandan, Sumatran, Honduran, Guatamalan, European, Javanese, you name it, they probably have it. The cool think is that they have sample packets (maybe 3oz?) for 1.25 each, or 10 for 10. We have been there on a few occasions, Im surprised that I didnt hear of this place sooner, what with all the amazing Yelp reviews. Dont forget their roasted peanuts, which are worth a bag of. It also has a basic, humble selection of asian groceries. Rice, kimchi, soy sauce, frozen rice paper wrappers, spices, etc. All pretty much the generic sort, it is labelled "South East Asian Grocer" in the front window. Worth a stop. read more

Great selection. Very helpful and experienced owners. They offer bean or ground. They also offer fresh roasted peanuts.

This is a great coffee shop they have any kind of coffee you could possibly want and they have many flavors if your into getting flavored coffee. They also roast peanuts as well as there coffee and I believe on Thursday and Saturday there peanuts are on special. read more

My parents took my wife and I here while we visited them for Thanksgiving. What a great little shop. They have a huge selection of tea and coffee. The coffee they roast themselves were immediately able to point to a couple yummy options when I asked for low acidic ones. They also have their own roasted peanuts. The nuts and coffee were available in really cool tins that would make a great gift for someone from out of town. Get within a 1/2 block and you'll smell the awesome aromas coming from them. Just follow your nose and you'll be really happy you did. read more

So many coffee and tea selections, and they're all very good. The k-cup selection and sample packs are also great for trying things.

Need to give a gift to that normal someone in your family that will make them feel like they have a legitimate chance of becoming special? This is the place. They have a marvelous Galapagos San Cristobal coffee for sale by the pound via their website. Ship away! read more

OK this one is tough and will require a follow up. I loved Rake's when it was in its original location. It was an amazing intriguing place for the tea and coffee drinkers of the world with an excellent Nonstandard Coffee Shop feel. It has been sold and relocated down the street. I popped in to see how it was doing. I think they were still setting up, it doesn't have that unique personalized touch "yet" but I do feel it will eventually. Also, not very friendly but maybe they were busy. I'll try again soon but please hurry, I would hate to see the clientele to keep it open just walk out the door. read more

The title is misleading in a sense that the average person thinks it is strictly a coffee shop. As I am new to town I thought I would stop by for coffee at 7am...they don't open until 9am?!!! WTH? Most coffee shops get the most traffic between 6-10am, so they are really losing alot of business!! It is great that they offer so many different types of coffee to take home. I just LOVE the smell of the shop. read more

Loving this place!! They have plenty of coffee beans to choose from. I had bought 12 different kinds of coffee beans, and they are all tasted different. One reviewer had commented that their all coffee beans are burnt and tasted the same. I don't know about whether they're burnt (don't think so but in all fairness I'm not an coffee expert) but the taste difference might come down to how the coffee is brewed. When I fist bought their coffee, I used a coffee maker and they're all tasted not as different. I then use a Turkish method, and the taste of the coffee beans shine!!! Btw, they also have roasted peanuts and the price is right too. I will definitely keep coming back!!! read more

About a month ago Greencastle Coffee moved to: 42 East Baltimore Street Greencastle PA 17225 I stumbled upon Greencastle Coffee in the summer about a year ago while I was driving up 81, and it was so miserably hot I needed to take a break... lo and behold, in front of me was a billboard for Greencastle advertising that they had 250 different varieties of coffee. Clearly I needed to stop and see this place - I'm very happy I did! Since that trip to Greencastle, they've become my favorite place to get coffee from, hands down. Nothing I can buy on the shelves at the supermarket comes close to the flavors in their coffee, and in case the coffee itself wasn't wonderful, the people working at Greencastle are also always fabulous. My favorite flavors of their coffee are graham cracker and mocha java. I also highly recommend their sample packets because it's an easy way to try lots of different coffee. Even if you can't stop by their store, Greencastle takes orders over the internet and by phone. I've made several phone orders when I wasn't able to make it there myself, and no matter where I go I know exactly where I'll be getting my coffee from. read more

Love this place! It smells as good as it tastes ! Friendly, knowledgeable service! Their prices are good & they usually a coupon out there ! You can enjoy your favorite brew everyday at home, it's great ! read more

I can't believe I've never reviewed this place. It's a rare find. They recently moved down the street about a block. If you've driven by and seen it before, keep in mind the new address is closer to the post office. Not only do they have a huge selection of coffee and tea, but there's an Asian grocery section in the back. I've found a few items that I've never seen anywhere else there. I do wish they actually served coffee at the store. I believe there's an issue with licensing or something that prevents this from happening. Small towns can be harder to do business with than big cities sometimes. If you ever find yourself anywhere near Greencastle and you want some good coffee to take home, this is worth the trip. Oh, and they also have fresh roasted peanuts... and they're HUGE! read more

Hands down, the best tea shop I've ever seen. Oh, and they have coffee. When I graduated from Wilson, my mom actually cried because it meant no more Greencastle coffee for her at holidays and "just because" in the mail. (Yes, you can order online. But there is something special about bringing home coffee at Christmas!) read more

Man, I can't believe that no one has written up Greencastle Coffee Roasters yet. This place is one of the coolest shops I have been to. They specialize in roasting coffees and peanuts. The best part is that you do not have to buy coffee by pound increments. They have small one pot sample bags of all the flavors they roast (well over 100). My husband's favorites were the apple pie and blueberry flavors. To their credit they also have a small asian grocery in the store where many products that are uneasy to find (especially in south central PA) can be purchased. read more

Inventory is way down on Asian foods. Great place to get coffee and fresh roasted peanuts.

Best. Coffee. Ever. Huge, almost bewildering, selection of coffees from around the world. Extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff. After drinking their coffee, I rarely buy my coffee from anywhere else. I love trying out many of the rare, and hard-to-find coffees, but I have many favorites that I order regularly such as Sumatra Mehndahling, Columbia Suprema, Bali Kintamous Highlands and several of the blended coffees - such as Breakfast Blend, Cup of Joe, and the House Blend. Since I'm almost never in Greencastle, I usually order my coffee online. Although their webpage doesn't instill confidence, the coffee arrives at my house super-quick. read more

Great place. The coffee selection is gigantic and the smells alone are worth the trip. We kind of make this place a special day trip, about 70 mi, a few times a year to load up on coffee and peanuts. I love the sample packets - well worth dollar or two to try a coffee you don't want to chance getting a pound of. Also fun to browse the Asian food. I picked up some black rice and some red rice and it was really good. The lady working there is polite and pleasant, and while the guy is quiet he seems pleasant enough. We'll definitely keep coming back. read more

Ahhh this place. I've been coming here for years, whenever I'm in the area. I think this is what heaven smells like. When you open the door, you immediately engulfed in the warm aroma of one hundred varieties of coffee, roasted to perfection. Many, many varieties of coffee, too much to sample at one time. There is truly something for every pallet. Apart from that, you also have fresh roasted peanuts, several varieties of tea, and a well stocked Asian food market. If you're ever in Greencastle, stop in and pick up a pound of Highlander Grog, a truly rewarding experience! read more

Love this place!! So many varieties of coffee. Favorites: Lisa's Winter Wonderland and Highlander Grogg. And the staff is always friendly and helpful. I don't live in Greencastle anymore, so anytime I'm there for a visit I stop and pick up at least 2 lbs of coffee to take home with me. And if anyone visits me from Greencastle, I always request they bring some bags of GCR coffee with them. It's a sad day when I run out... Can't recommend this place enough! read more

Greencastle coffee roasters could possibly be the worst coffee I have ever tasted, I'm almost certain that every roast is roasted to the same degree and is on the border line of being burnt..... And I'm not talking good burnt like a french roast, I'm talking popcorn flavor. I would imagine that anyone who Is not familiar with coffee could find this stuff good, But sadly everyone I know who orders coffee from the orient is amazed at how horrible this stuff is, Sadly I had high expectations for this place and after reading reviews am shocked at the amount of people who enjoy it... To each his own I suppose. read more

Talk about a great place for Coffee and Tea lovers. I love how the whole store is split, off to the right is everything you need for your coffee fix, and off to the left is all teas. They try very hard to keep a running total of what they have in stock with dry erase boards mounted high on the walls, the only downside is there are so many to choose from, their writing is very tiny you have to have great eyesight to be able to read it all. It is really cool that you don't have to buy an entire bag of coffee that you may not like and each one of their flavors they can put into little sample packs designed to brew 1-4 cups. This goes the same for tea. Everything you see in the jars, you can find in little gold or silver bags. I make a trek here at least once a year to pickup my favorite loose leaf tea (High Dragon) and a bunch of flavored coffee. Snickerdoodle, White chocolate raspberry, Wintertime, Double Chocolate, it's an amazing variety they have here. Along the walls besides having the trial bags of each coffee and tea you are interested in they also have coffee pots, coffee presses, tea bags, cups, balls, strainers, pretty much anything you need to create the perfect cup of coffee/tea. Back in the corner of the shop there is a small Asian shop that has a few things you can pickup, but it's not really the center piece of this establishment. I think its just something they needed to do. Every employee I have come into contact with has been more than willing to give you their insight and be as helpful as possible. One girl spent the entire 2 hours I was there pretty much catering to what I wanted to know and what I needed and at no time did I get the vibe off her that basically said "hurry up" So either she is really good at hiding it, or their employees generally like what they do. As a side note they are constantly roasting peanuts you can pickup for fairly cheap if you are into that type of thing. They roast light, medium, or dark, and have sizes from little handbags all the way up to a 5 lb sack. They take credit cards which is a good thing because you can easily drop 30-40 bucks if you get carried away. If you are a lover of hot beverages, or have someone in your family who is, definitely set aside a few hours to spend in this quaint little shop. read more

I used to make the drive to Greencastle when I went to college at Shippensburg. The coffee tastes great-with quirky names like "Helter Skelter", etc. But the service is terrible! I saw another reviewer say the employees were "indifferent"--true--but I might go further to say they are downright annoyed by customers. They make you feel as if you've done something wrong by walking in the door. It makes the entire experience painful--as they're always watching you like you're going to shove a pound of coffee down your pants--and are visibly troubled and rude when they have to grind coffee. If you don't have a problem paying the $10 + shipping to order their coffee online--do it. Otherwise, I hope you have a thicker skin than I do. read more

This is an awesome little place that you would probably miss if you weren't looking for it (and possibly still miss it even if you were). They have dozens and dozens of different kinds of blends and flavors of coffees, it's almost a little overwhelming. You can get coffee by the pound, but they also have small sample packets which are awesome if you want to try a bunch of different kinds. They brew coffee that you can purchase a cup at a very reasonable price. When I went in they only had one type made which I wasn't incredibly interested in, but the lady working there offered to make any of their other kinds of coffee for me, which is simply amazing and incredible customer service. They also roast their own peanuts, which are quite tasty. I'll definitely be back here. read more

Great selection of coffee - lots of choices. Shop smells wonderful. Staff is borderline polite. Biggest complaint - it's 2016 and yet they require a printed hard copy of their coupon. There is no barcode on the coupon and therefore, no need for a printed copy. Would be nice to see them being a little more environmentally friendly and actually take advantage of technology. read more

A mecca for coffee lovers. They source and roast their own coffee, and have at least 50 flavored coffees in whole bean and at least 25 exotic coffees from all around the world. I can't believe a place this can exist in sleepy little Greencastle, but I'm grateful that it does. read more

Great, amazing selection of whole bean (reg and decaf), single-cup ready, teas and Asian foods! Wow - I hadn't bought from here in so long but my husband is from Greencastle so since we were in the area I had to stop by! I bought Maui, Jamaican Crazy and Coconut. I have only tried the Jamaican so far but it's super flavorful and delish! read more

I love the fact that Greencastle Coffee Roasters is located within 10 miles of where I live. But the biggest reason I love getting my coffee from them is because I know that the coffee is always fresh and so many to choose from. By the way, the personnel are very pleasant willing to assist you for your coffee and tea needs. read more

I have been going to this company since 2001 and they go out of their way to make you feel important and satisfied. I commend them on exceptional service and will continue to enjoy their wonderful coffees and teas. Dan Eichinger read more

I am a "coffee connoisseur" of sorts. I have sampled coffee in various countries, and numerous local coffee shops in the United States. First of all, I am in shock that this place has a "1 star" review. Not sure how that is even possible. This magical place in the middle of nowhere can definitely hold its own as far as coffee is concerned. When I first received my travel assignment for work in Greencastle and saw that Greencastle had a booming population of nearly 5,000, I almost suffered from a heart attack. I am city girl through and through. Tiny towns suffocate me. Greencastle Coffee Roasters is a gem! Their coffee is delicious! The staff is friendly and helpful: the lady brewed a fresh pot of coffee just for me, and she helped me pick out what coffees would best suit my taste. I may not come back to Greencastle ever again, but I will definitely be ordering from the Coffee Roasters quite frequently. :) read more
