First visit with high hopes for this small but ample sized Roastery. Upon our arrival there were a…read morecouple people in line ahead of us and more coming in behind us. The young lady behind the counter appeared to be working alone and was struggling to keep up. It took about ten minutes to get a latte which tasted pretty darn good however when dining in, I prefer a real cup and saucer instead of a cheap carboard cup ..I did ask for one and was told they are not available... and for a $6 cup of coffee I think they should be.

Came home for a weekend and this new coffee shop popped up on my feed so we had to try it. It is a…read morevery cute place with ample, comfy seating and friendly staff. They have a ton of flavor shots to choose from which made the choices hard, but I went with my go to caramel latte which I loved. It was more bitter than sweet, but I love the taste of strong coffee so I enjoyed it. My boyfriend got a hot americano and loved it. The most important review is from my mom who got a hot spiced brown sugar latte: she never gets any flavors because she thinks they're too much but she LOVED this latte. They have a ton or pastry choices as well and a soup of the day! Definitely a great place to hangout and drink strong coffee.

I have had many good experiences at simple roast on grant ave in Auburn. However, today's was quite…read moredisappointing period to start off. I checked my rewards account.It states that you need sixty points to get a free coffee.I had sixty three points period I drove twenty miles to get this ice coffee.I had to wait fifteen minutes with one car at the window. When I got up to the window, I asked if they were short staffed, they dismissed me.And said, no, with no explanation for the long wait or apology. I asked her to check my number about my free coffee.She said, i'm sorry, no, you don't have enough points.You need seventy five I told her that online.It says, you only need sixty.She did not offer me a free coffee. I gave them my order and I forgot to tell them half ice.There was no way to contact them once they closed that window.I sat there and honked my horn a couple times and I knocked on the tip thing, and nobody could hear me when she opened the window, I informed her.I do need half ice please. Fiona was not very nice.She was quite rude.I won't be back... As I am writing this review, i'm looking at the size of my coffee and realized I did ask for a twenty ounce, and they gave me a sixteen ounce, now the line is so long.I can't even go back to have it corrected.How extremely disappointing?I will never be back

I have no idea how I have not rated this spot before. It is one of my favorites in the area!

When I go with my kids, they have high chairs (like legit ones with trays) for my 1.5 year old. And my 5 year old is really just there for the good food. It always comes out promptly. When I order online for drive up they will typically bring it out without you having to call. The atmosphere is nice. My baby really enjoys the baby yoda over the espresso machine. Haha lots to look at!

We both ordered bagels, I had a bagel with cream cheese and my boyfriend ordered a bagel with butter, he ordered drip coffee and I ordered a latte. The bagels were really delicious, they were soft and delectable. My latte was really good, I added some coconut syrup to it and it was just chef's kiss! I was very pleased. I'm off caffeine for a while so that was a way to go out lol. The staff members were kind and helpful, the shop itself is very cute and there is ample seating. If I'm ever in the area again, I would definitely stop by.

Stopped by to study at this coffee shop…read more Ordered the maple latte which I enjoyed iced at their wescott location. Here I ordered it hot and found it overly sweet and the milk improperly steamed (dry cappuccino foam, no microfoam). There's seating for about 10 between four tables and also 3 barstools. A few more tables outside as well. Bathroom in the back with door code. Wifi with password. There are outlets at the tables but unfortunately some of them aren't working. Tends to echo, probably not an ideal place to take a meeting or phone call. Paid parking available across the street (see pictures). Service while ordering was average. However one worker came over about 10 minutes to close and awkwardly gestured for me and another customer to leave which I found odd. Note that overall it is much smaller than their Wescott location and they close much earlier as well. Hope to try again in the future with better results.

The creekside matcha was decent, good color, not overly sweet. It lacked a little of the oomph I look for in a good matcha, it was a little light on flavor.

He knew the process very well, was really friendly, commenting that he loves new customers. Over all, the store is nicely laid out and very clean. We bought 4lbs of their French roast and several smaller bags. The breakfast blend is what coffee shops and thousands of restaurants serve. The French roast is not as "roasted" as some brands (which are burnt by comparison), making it a wonderful medium brew for anyone who enjoys a great cup of coffee.
