    This is a LARGE coffee??!!
    Brian M.

    Original review below this review: Updated Review: I thought I'd give this business the benefit of the doubt and try them again. I should have listened to my instincts. A 10 oz coffee (see pic) is considered a large?? At $2.75 for this size I can get a larger cup of coffee at Starbucks, and it will be far less bitter. A black coffee from here is almost undrinkable. Original Review: I'm sorry, but I wanted so badly for this to be a great little new find in Hightstown, so I was very excited when I saw the "coming soon" sign for a specialty coffee shop right near my house. Unfortunately this establishment has a ways to go before they will get my business again. To start off with the espresso was EXTREMELY bitter, almost undrinkable. There's also nothing to the decor that's inviting in any way. There's very little si, and what there is of seating is not comfortable in any way. There's also misc. cleaning supplies and such in the main seating area and just randomly out and about. Perhaps they are still in "soft launch" mode, so I will keep an eye out to see if things change as I drive by. The other difficulty is parking, as there is no real place to park aside from fighting with the bank and post office for street parking.

    Found this little gem a couple of weeks ago. When you walk in it smells like coffee heaven. The employees are so friendly and attentive. The coffee is perfection! The sweet goodies are excellent! I love their butter scones, not to sweet and they go perfect with the coffee. Visit them please. They will not disappoint. There is parking on the side of the establishment.

    Love the coffee! I am becoming a bit of a coffee snob because of this place! The flavor of the coffee is amazing, its smooth, and fresh! The owner is extremely friendly, and will make it however you like!

    This place is an amazing hidden gem nestled in downtown Hightstown. Great coffee to go or to bring home and brew - and they also have oat milk! Really cute storefront. Lovely customer service.

    Oat milk latte and an iced coffee

    What a treat to have a coffee roaster right here in town! Whenever I drive by or have time for a stroll, I get something. There is ample parking right across the street in front of the post office (huge spaces too, no need for parallel parking expertise!) and around the corner. My favorite on a cool day is an oat milk latte. On a hot day, I enjoy getting an iced cafe americano. I have also purchased their freshly roasted coffee beans and luckily my BIL has a coffee grinder and can make the good stuff fresh for us when we go to his house. Service is friendly and efficient!

    I am loving this spot! It's so cute, delicious chocolate biscotti (I believe made by them, I could be wrong), friendly and warm atmosphere. WHAT I LOVE MOST: I brought a to go mug and with no questions they filled it with my vanilla latte (which is soo good) and Randy confirmed no plastic was used in the making. YES. Thank you guys! Perfect quaint town vibe.

    Amazing iced coffee and they take contactless payment. Only downside is they don't really have a lot of food options. Just some cookies.

    Now that I've been pulling espressos at home, I've started using their freshly roasted whole beans.

    Black River Roasters is one of my long-time favorites. Their seasonal drinks are always so good. I…read moreespecially love the iced maple latte. There's plenty of indoor seating, and the outdoor seating area is spacious and really elevates the whole atmosphere in the warm weather. The baristas are consistently kind, quick, and talented, and the drinks come out perfect every single time. I'm a huge local coffee shop fan, and not every shop nails consistency, but Black River Roasters has gotten it right without fail since the day they opened. I've been coming here since they first opened their doors, and their coffee is still tough to beat. Truly some of the best coffee I've ever had!

    Passing through Whitehouse Station and in search of coffee brought me to Black River Roasters, and…read moreit definitely was a pleasant surprise! First impressions: wow, this place is huge for a coffee shop. Black River roasts their own coffee beans in house, which is always nice and means you're getting some high quality caffeine. Seasonal flavors included pumpkin, bourbon maple, and apple cinnamon -- so you already know you're getting quality, since these aren't flavors you can get just anywhere. I loved the signage depicting staff favorite drink mixes as it adds a fun touch to the menu! Coffee was great, my only complaint is that with syrups the drink can get way too sweet (especially since I typically drink unsweetened coffee.) Make sure to ask for less syrup and you'll be good to go! Can't wait to return!
