For years, I have subscribed to Roadmap Coffeeworks for years. I love their Blue Ridge Blend. Coffee, Coffee, Coffee. They have other Blends and other nations coffee. I try them. But I do always get the Blue Ridge bland. Sorry, i was making my coffee for the morning button and It made me sign and want to write a review. Subscriptions are cheaper and getting A certain amount is free shipping. That one shop in Staunton and I've been hooked. read more

Nice building with outdoor seating. The drive thru was closed. Baristas were welcoming and friendly, smiling and helpful. They don't have a lot of flavored syrups which initially bummed me but after tasting the coffee I really didn't care. The coffee is delicious. Strong and flavorful. It was small, but excellent. The cookie and croissant were also good, but would have been better a bit warmer, at least room temp instead of cool. read more

*edit after owner responded* 5 stars for the coffee, it is excellent. They are a coffee shop so I should probably rate based on that anyways. Very smooth brew. I can see why it's rated to highly. I wrote my original review 1-Star review after having the muffin which was absolutely terrible. -10 for the muffin, genuinely one of the worst muffins I've had in my life, and I've tried "gluten free, non-dairy, vegan" muffins which were hardly edible. It was somehow incredibly crumbly and dense. It's VERY salty, I think something went horribly wrong with that batch. I made others try it and they gagged at the flavor. That being said, apparently they don't make the muffins themselves so there is no real way they could've know about it. read more

If only I lived in Lexington and could enjoy this coffee all the time. While I was in town I picked up two bags of whole bean coffee, a delicious beverage and a snack. The workers were extremely friendly and helpful- explaining their process and the delicious flavors notes of each batch. This is a must try for any coffee lover and make sure you buy a bag or two to take home. You won't regret it! read more

I ordered a dirty chai with decaf espresso. The shop didn't have chai but they did have London Fog so I ordered a dirty London Fog instead. I have ordered this from other coffee shops many times. The shop agreed to my order then chose to ignore my order and make just a London Fog. They stated they decided to this because it would taste better claiming they were "protecting me from myself". They offered to fix or refund the order. I had already waited 20 minutes and didn't care to wait any longer after they insulted me. I won't be back. You may not get what you order from here. A more appropriate response to this would have been making the decaf espresso and the London Fog separately and have me mix them myself. read more

Bang. Want coffee around the area, definitely hit Roadmap. Awesome coffee and specialty coffee drinks, local baked goods and the Coconut Crunch coffee crushed it. We bought 4 cans for the road. Great Artisan Coffee just off the highway. Highly Recommend read more

Always a good latte or London Fog. Service is friendly and the coffee hot. It's a nice stopover on a long road trip and I'm thrilled that a coffee shop near my daughter in Fredericksburg now serves their roast as well. read more

We decided to stop on a trip and I am glad we did. The shop itself is small but there is a window to show the beans and roasting process in the back. I decided to get a flight which was cool and the nitro cold brew was great. The prices were fair and really just seemed like a good deal. I would definitely stop again. read more

I saw a sign inside that boasted as being one of the top 12 coffee roasters on the East Coast. I agree and booked barked this in my Road-trip Bookmarks for a repeat visit the next time I'm in town. read more

I usually wait a bit to post reviews, but I can unequivocally say that this is the best coffee I have ever had in my life. I'm actually sad to know this place exists since I'm going to crave it for the rest of my life. Good thing they ship beans. Autumn Spice latte was so delicious that I'm not sure I can ever stomach a Starbucks PSL again. Curse you, Roadmap, for being so, so good. read more

One of my new favorite coffee roasteries! Colombia Don Ruiz - out of this world -- you must try this roast. Recently rebranded, they no longer offer coffee tours. However, be sure to try their coffee flight for a tasting of various brews. Everyone on staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about their coffees. Their baked goods are delicious as well. I tried the blueberry muffin, oatmeal raisin, and chocolate chip. Great space to enjoy a cup (or 5) as well as quiet place to work or collect your thoughts. There's seating outside as well, if you don't mind the road noise. They also have a drive thru if you're just passing through. read more

Taking off a star because the baristas were a little snooty. Everyone else seems like they have received friendly service, so maybe it was an "off" day? Or bc they could tell we weren't locals? They seemed like they were more interested in serving themselves coffee and talking to each other than serving us. One guy seemed like he didn't want to make eye contact with us. Once we placed our order, the service was quick and made properly. The coffee was REALLY good, so we will try it again if we are back in town. Maybe they were having a bad day. read more

My family returned to this coffee place in June 2022 for a quick stop after our first visit in June 2021 (on a long return drive back to northern Virginia from Fayetteville, WV and the New River Gorge National Park). The name of this coffee place changed from Lexington Roasters to Roadmap Coffeeworks, but it's still provides an excellent option for ice coffee or an espresso drink. This time, I decided to pick up some coffee beans (Columbia Fudam Narino - light roast), which was delightful at home. The outdoor patio is dog-friendly (although it can be excruciatingly hot on a humid, midsummer day). The place has a simple but pleasant interior and clean restrooms. For folks driving between Blacksburg/Roanoke and points north along I-81, this cafe is an ideal pit stop as it's located about 1 mile away from the US 11 intersection with I-81 (northeast of Lexington, VA). Give it a try - you'll be pleasantly surprised by the superb quality of a cortado or regular coffee in this neck of the woods! read more

Hubs and I visited the area for the weekend to go to a sweet little farmstead and do some hiking. We saw Roadmap from the road signs and decided to grab some joe before our hike in Shenandoah. They made one of the most perfect vanilla lattes I have ever had!!! People have to love their jobs to make coffee that good. My husband said his macchiato was fantastic. The service was friendly and you get to see into their roastery from the shop. Highly recommend if you're swinging through!! read more

The coffee was amazing, the atmosphere had a good vibe, and was so happy to find stellar coffee on a road trip! Loved it. Bathrooms were clean & inclusive. Staff were friendly & welcoming. read more

Time for a quick coffee break at the Roadmap CoffeeWorks, rated one of the 12 best roasters in the U.S., according to Forbes. The Blue Ridge blend and macchiato, paired with a light and flaky cinnamon crescent roll, were delish! The folks at the counter were super friendly and service was awesome. The shop is nice and clean and has its own roaster in the back. We'll definitely be back. read more

A cute coffee shop in Lexington! My husband took our family on a surprise trip, and we found this place to drop by for coffee. THey have a drive-through, which is also really convenient. There coffee was delicious! We ordered a nitro and iced mocha. We were a fan of the iced mocha. Perfect amount of espresso and not too sweet. THe interior is a bit small for seating, but on nice days, I can see people relaxing outside. Highly recommend and hope to visit again one day! read more

Good location. Great off the highway but could get right back on. Service was awesome. Tables outside to enjoy the mountains. Coffee was delicious Goat Cheese & fig jam toast was amazing. No time to take a picture. Just go in and git yer own read more

Fantastic! A beautiful spot just minutes from 81. Beautifully landscaped outdoor seating areas as well as plenty of space indoors if the weather isn't great. delicious, freshly roasted coffee and baked goods. we'll make this a regular stopping point. read more

Holy macaroni- freaking delicious. If you're visiting Lexington- this place is worth the stop. Starbucks who? This place will make you forget those fake fancy shops exist- their coffee is just that good! So glad my sis in law told me about them! read more

I was very excited to have found this stop for coffee while we drove down to Alabama. The coffee was delicious and surprisingly the blend was The Kenya Blend. It wasn't like other Kenya's that I have had in the past. I found it to be missing some of the citrusy notes but it was delicious nonetheless. Overall, I would definitely make it back if possible for another cup of joe. read more

Lexington Coffee Roasters recently rebranded as Roadmap Coffeeworks. The name may be different, but they still serve up the same great coffee. They serve a range of brewed, hand brewed and nitro coffees in addition to expresso drinks. As a both a tasting room and an in-house coffee roaster, you can enjoy a hot cup of coffee in their seating area and then take some fresh coffee beans back home with you. With plentiful seating and free wifi, Roadmap Coffeeworks is one of my favorite locations for working remotely. There is also a dog-friendly patio with several picnic tables. I have no complaints but wouldnt mind if they expanded their snack menu to include some hot items in the future (paninis, breakfast sandwiches, etc.) read more

Incredible spot, first time I've visited a "Tap Room" for coffee, sandwiches were delicious and some of the best coffee I've ever had. Absolutely must see spot if you're in the area. Servers were super knowledgeable but not pretentious. Outdoor patio is dog friendly, we had a blast. read more

Stopped in when I saw the sign on I-81 and I'm really glad we did! It's just a mile off the highway. They have plenty of parking and a nice outdoor seating area. They have a few baked goods inside and some prepackaged food snacks as well. I appreciated that they had a room dedicated to how to make coffee and examples of different brew methods. We got delicious nitro coffees that were perfectly smooth and creamy. We also bought a bag of coffee to make at home (with our own burr grinder/chemex set up). Bottom line:This was a great way to break up our drive and it helped that there were gas stations nearby to fuel up before getting back on the highway! read more

Omg! As a coffee snob: this place is a DEFINITE yes! Their plain drip coffee was heaven.

Bright & fresh coffee roaster to grab a cup or beans. You won't want to miss this turn off Lee Hwy. Staff are knowledgeable about their roasts and brews. There are a variety of tools for sale if you'd like to make coffee at home like the experts here at Roadmap. read more

Stopped here a few times now when driving to Roanoke from DC. Each time it gets better. These guys know what they are doing and enjoy sharing their love and passion for coffee. As a newbie to the coffee world, this place is so much more then just a place to get a good genuine brew of coffee, you can take a tour of well and learn the whole roasting process. Seriously I felt like I was in a coffee science lab, but with a cool, homey touch not like that science lab you remember from college. They have many different options and you can buy their roast there or join their delivery service and have it come right to your door. The staff was super friendly. They have a few items to munch on , but this is a coffee expert heaven. They do have some tables inside and outside to sit and relax at. If you are driving by it is well worth a stop. Expect to pay a little more than normal due to the top notch quality they offer. Enjoy!! read more

Beautiful location, but a bit of a disappointment. Tasting flight was unavailable. Pastries were served cold, and coffee was okay.

Great place for coffee. It is not burned. It tastes good. They have a very good assortment of coffees and teas. Fun place to watch the roasting, too. read more

Great coffee! Killer cinnamon rolls. Definitely worth the 5 mile detour off I-81. Chill. But warm. read more

I'm no coffee snob and I can't describe a good cup of joe with a bunch of flowery adjectives. But if you're looking for some really fine coffee--this is the place to go or order from by mail! You pick your bean (I love light roasts so I choose an Ethiopian varietal from Kayon Mountain Farms) and the staff will grind it to order to match your preferred method of brewing. It's not cheap--12 ounces packets of whole beans go for about $18 up to $24-26 for their prize winning roasts. It only took one bag for me to discover it's worth it. I'm a cream and sugar lover if I stop at Dunkin' or McDonald's on my travels. But my Roadmap roasts so far have been so awesome I can skip my usual additives!! Smooth, never bitter. Now I look for excuses to take trips down I-81. It's a pretty roastery location, close to the interstate exit, with friendly helpful staff, clean restrooms and both indoor and outdoor seating if you want to take a break and sample a cup of the day's brew. Their recipes for the perfect cup are precise and not to be hurried. I consider Roadmap Coffeeworks my caffeine nirvana! read more

I was excited about this place after seeing all the five star reviews. Unfortunately, we were ignored by the woman who was clearly in charge, who was too busy talking to someone to acknowledge the six of us. She was also being degrading to the two girls that were working to make drinks. I know it's frustrating to train new employees but you don't have to belittle them in front of customers. Ending on a positive, my cold brew (made by one of the girls working under the boss) was excellent. read more

While chasing summer to Virginia a little pick me up was needed. Luckily this coffee roaster was close by our rustic cabin. They have all the correct espresso drinks one could want and the coffee is delicious! The espresso is very smooth. I ordered macchiato and I could probably drink 5 of them. The barista knew his beans and his way around La Marzocco. Definitely a place to stop if you find yourself on US route 11 in Lexington. read more

A fun surprise find when visiting our friend in Lexington. There are many who claim to serve a good cup of coffee but these people really do

If you drink iced lattes, I would advise going elsewhere. Hands down the worst iced oatmilk latte I've ever had. You could improve by offering an iced latte like every other coffee roaster. What you try and label as an iced latte (cold brew) sucks! With so many awards hanging all over your shop you would think you could craft a decent drink for people who enjoy ice, espresso and some form of milk (aka iced latte). read more

Best coffee EVER. The pastries were really good too. Reasonable prices and super cute patio. Peaceful and quiet. Bring your pup too!

Stopped here two days in a row while visiting Lexington. Coffees and muffins are delicious. Ambiance is nice, with seating both inside and out. Service the first visit was terrific, but service the second day was...disappointing. No one in front of us, two servers prepping other orders, and neither barely offered an acknowledgment. Waited for nearly 10 minutes to order, by which time there were at least four others waiting in line behind us. read more
