My friends and I went to Afton this past weekend for a quick getaway. Before the trip, I did some research on local coffee roasters, and Happ Coffee was easily at the top of my list. On our way to our Airbnb, a friend and I stopped by Happ, which is located inside an industrial-style building that's incredibly spacious. There's plenty of seating, along with a dedicated area where beans are available for purchase. The barista was really friendly, and we ended up having an in-depth conversation about drink recommendations. When I settled on a cappuccino, he walked me through how each milk option paired with the espresso. I ultimately chose whole milk since it doesn't have an overpowering flavor like almond milk, which allowed the light-roast espresso (an optional upgrade) to really shine. I didn't fully enjoy the cappuccino during the first couple sips because the mouthfeel of the whole milk felt a bit too thick, which didn't pair well with the light roast. However, it became more harmonious as I continued drinking, and the highlight was definitely the bright sweetness of the espresso. I really appreciate a coffee shop that pulls a light-roast espresso well. The barista asked for my thoughts, which I shared, and he then pulled me a shot using their South Paw (house espresso blend) beans to try. I thoroughly enjoyed this light-medium espresso, which was bright and strong, without the unpleasant acidity or bitterness that often follows. I don't typically recommend ordering a straight espresso shot at most coffee shops, but Happ does it well. Overall, it was a great experience -- lovely coffee and friendly baristas who genuinely care about their craft. I left with one of their limited-release coffees (a Peruvian Geisha), which I'm looking forward to trying as a pour-over at home. read more

The indoor seating is super cute and lots of options to sit. The workers were so kind and helpful with suggestions with it being my first time in. The food is great, the avocado toast is fresh and the espresso is awesome! 10/10 recommend! read more

Nice place. Big area to sit. Coffee was overly strong. Not as smooth as I'd like for cappuccino. Breakfast sandwich. Eh. Nothing earth shattering. Hopefully it's better for others. read more

I met a couple of friends there in the mid afternoon. I was surprised by the many people who were there. I had a big lunch so I got a flavored seltzer but tasted my friends energy balls. She loves them, I thought it was just alright. It was very noisy with all the people and someone was banging on the hinges of the front door. We had some important things to discuss and the noise was making it nearly impossible. I would like to try it again another time and get a coffee drink. read more

I absolutely love this place. It is so adorable! I tried the campfire latte and it was amazing. We did not try any of the food or pastries but it looks very good. The vibes are top tier. They also have this cute little "shopping corner" thing. It's just a collection of random gift or souvenir type items, but it's so cute. It's fun to take a look around while waiting for your coffee. read more

Excellent coffee! Stopped by after seeing they had interesting coffee options on their menu. The strawberry vanilla latte did not disappoint. Definitely top 3 favorite. It was lightly sweetened, well balanced flavors and perfectly blended along with being made to look pretty. The cafe itself is very comfortable. It's inside a large industrial building that appears to be getting built out to have more shops. Even though it was busy it was very quiet so a great spot to work out of. The roastery appears to be in the building as well. They offer food too which I'll try next time I'm in the area. read more

Very nice Barista and great atmosphere, latte, double espresso and Strawberry Pistachio Sable. We also liked the gift area with thoughtful selections. read more

I love to see Waynesboro growing and adding new businesses, while Happ isn't new, it's certainly a great addition. And more businesses are opening in the same building. Very inviting layout with plenty of seating. The coffee is great and service was swift. Nice selection of food. Stop by and try it! read more

Beautiful open industrial style building with ample seating. The staff were very friendly and the coffee was great! Grab a drink and enjoy it down by the river or take a book or sketchbook and enjoy the spacious building if you'd prefer to be inside. read more

Happ was one of the few places opened on New Year's Day (it was packed!). We were craving pastries, so we ordered the morning bun (fancy cinnamon roll), which was warmed up and came with a side of icing. We loved the infused lemony flavor. The space is out of a repurposed warehouse. It's spacious and modern inside. Next trip, I will try one of their coffee specialities and/or brunch items. read more

Really enjoy this place when I come into town. Great coffee, great burrito, and great vibes

Two and a half stars. Found this place while looking for Farmhaus, which they replaced. Spacious parking lot with one-way entry/exit, cute space and great pastry options. We didn't have enough time to wait for composed breakfast foods, but they seemed like a popular option for other customers, along with sweetened coffee beverages. The sesame pear danish we got was so good that we thought about grabbing a second pastry while waiting for our coffee order. I usually drink drip coffee black, but ended up adding a splash of half-and-half to my iced coffee because it tasted too strongly of coffee cherries. The cappuccino we got wasn't very good either. We probably won't be back for a caffeine fix the next time we're in Waynesboro. read more

Great coffee, friendly staff... my iced latte was perfect and delicious. Enormous pastries to choose from. In need of a caffeine jolt in the morning, make it a point to grab a cup at Happ! read more

Cute space for coffee shop and to do work, pretty spacious too with indoor and outdoor seating options. I like their iced shaken espresso or iced dirty chai and the avocado toast. Only negative is it's pretty pricey for it not being full service , the iced coffee and food combined is about $20. You go up and get your food and drinks and also clear your own plates. There's a little gift shop inside which is nice. There's lots of room for parking which is nice. read more

Service, exceptional. Location, love. Coffee. To die for. Food. Delicious. Fell in love when it was Farmhaus and will follow this lovely business anywhere they go or with any name change because it's worth it. Love my spring and summer Saturday mornings with my 9 year old daughter visiting them at the waynesboro farmers market and then enjoying a magnificent shaken brown in a beautiful place like Happ. Businesses and owners/employees like these are what makes waynesboro a great place to live read more

My husband and I always choose this as our go-to coffee shop. It's the BEST. I loved farmhaus but HAPP is farmhaus x10. You can tell they put so much effort and love into making this shop a special place to go in Waynesboro! The atmosphere is great if you want a date, study sesh, business meeting, whatever. You can find a comfy corner next to beautiful plants to read a good book etc... The avocado toast is amazing & they have gluten free for special people like me I'm OBSESSED! Wish I could give it 10 stars, but five will do for now. read more

We love Happ! We are a couple Portland Oregonians that look forward to our fix when we are in town to visit family. What great coffee, a space to work, and gateway to explore other local businesses! P.S. Get the cookie butter latte read more

While we only tried the morning bun and some coffee, I was surprised at the quantity of service and food. The staff were kind, though they seemed slightly distracted talking amongst themselves .vs responding to customers but when they did respond, they were fantastic. The morning bun was really good. Imagine a crescent and cinnamon roll combined with some very liquid icing to dip it in. The coffee, a quad shot espresso with a splash of milk was an exceptionally dark roast, not my preference, but still good with a robust flavor. Everyone else that grabbed coffee was pleased as well with options from lattes to americanos, everyone really appreciated the local roasts. The location across from the trailer park isn't phenomenal and the outside smelled like a fish market the morning we went, but the interior of the building beyond makes up for it. Eventually the outside will catch up as there's been quite the rejuvenation in the area with local eateries and stops I have no doubt. Overall, if you're visiting Waynesboro, it's worth a stop, especially as they grow and really nail each roast. read more

Beautiful, industrial chic space and amazing coffee! Such a great addition to Waynesboro and we are so lucky to have it nearby! Great place to hang out and the service is wonderful! The decor and vintage chic details are swoon worthy! Definitely check it out if you are a coffee enthusiast or just a lover of beautiful spaces. read more

Stop scrolling reviews and get your butt to Happ. The space is as equally as lovely as the people who run it, the folks who own it and the coffee that is carefully roasted for your sipping pleasure. Big fan of their breakfast sandwiches after a hike on the AT or Blue Ridge Parkway. A very short hop off of 64/Skyline drive. All my out of town guests will forever be shown this local gem and it's where all of my weekly little treats come to fruition! read more

I decided to try this place for the first time and got a larger iced caramel latte. The inside was adorable and I love the layout. The coffee was not as good. It was mostly milk and one shot of espresso and didn't really taste like coffee. The staff was nice and the service was quick though! read more

Where is the morning bun? You guys NEED to have the morning bun. Bring back the morning bun. The morning bun is the only food worth getting here. The morning bun is everything. No one cares about "noms" or ridiculous things like avocado toast. The whole display case should be morning buns and nothing else. This is the best morning bun in the state and maybe the nation. I came from Ohio for this morning bun and it wasn't there. You gotta have it at all times. Please stop experimenting with this other crap and stock up that morning bun and nothing else. Employees don't know the situation with the morning bun distributor or whatever. They said it's the most popular item. Well, where is it at 10:00 Monday morning? This happened at farmhouse too! So disappointing. Do the right thing and get that morning bun available at all times. Do it for your country. The coffee is fine. But I'm not here for the coffee. I'm here for the MORNING BUN. COME ON HAPP! read more

Great atmosphere, food, and service. Best cafe con leche in the Valley. The pasties are always worth the stop.

Amazing coffee! Really cool vibe in this place. It's located in a renovated factory.

We call this spot the magical unicorn coffee shop. Most coffee shops get 1 or 2 of the necessary elements of a magical unicorn coffee shop down: 1) good coffee 2) good food 3) vibe 4) enough space. Happ has all four. And is quite possibly my favorite coffee ever. read more

Excellent coffee, great service, good food. What more can you ask for? The bread all seems to come from a local bakery and the coffee is roasted seemingly on site and very well, not too roasted but not under roasted so that it has too much acidity. Above the space, very open, lots of light, convenient plugs. They get it all right. read more
