And I had to request a latte with given number of pumps because their drinks are just too much. The kiosk-ish store was underwhelming. The service was poor because one person was running it alone. The coffee was not worth the trip.

It was nice to try something local instead of a franchise. And yes they understand your Starbucks speak because they can easily duplicate if not improve on your order. If you're not sure what to order go for the covfefe it is a great drink, as well as the rocky road trip. They serve your drinks hot or iced. I also really enjoyed ordering my drinks in the breves style, just felt more velvety I would say. My daughter really enjoyed her hot chocolate made "not too hot" so much so ordered both times we visited. Oh and the cookies here are huge and delicious. The people working here are very knowledgeable, local, and friendly and easy to talk to. As for the ambiance, you just walk in and they take your order. There is some outdoor seating if you want to sit down, but that is part of the shopping center not the coffee shop. Overall we really enjoyed our coffee here, and if you love coffee, give this shop a try.

The moment you walk in, you feel that perfect blend of small‑town warmth and genuine craft coffee culture. The aroma alone could fix a bad day -- rich, toasty, and clearly roasted with intention.

Whether you're grabbing a simple drip or something more adventurous, everything tastes like it was made by someone who truly cares about the craft. The atmosphere is relaxed in the best way -- cozy without feeling cramped, welcoming without trying too hard. It's the kind of place where you can settle in with a book, meet a friend, or just enjoy a quiet moment with a seriously good cup of coffee. If you're anywhere near Ava, this spot is absolutely worth the stop. Melancholy Roasting is one of those rare gems that makes a town feel more like home.

They roast their own beans and make a decent pour over; they also have several flavored coffee and non-coffee drinks too. The food is a bit sparse, mainly just cookies/biscotti, but we were told a bigger menu is in the works. Overall, I'm happy with my trip here for a pour over, and I'm looking forward to coming back to see how the new location evolves.
