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!

Yesterday, I told him I was heading here to plan our next trip and I'd pretend I was in Portugal while enjoying my breakfast. Imagine my happy surprise when it turned out to be more authentic than I could have hoped! If I hadn't known better, I'd have thought I was transported straight to Portugal. The pastries were exactly as they are in Portugal and were so delicious! My cappuccino was also amazing. This place was inviting, immaculately clean, and was large and had plenty of comfortable couches and chairs to sit on. There were travel videos of Portugal playing on a TV. Every staff member was incredibly nice and genuinely welcoming. Truly I would recommend this spot to everyone - there is no way you won't fall in love with it!

Update: corporate reached out and rectified the issue. They were very apologetic and offered a free breakfast sandwich in return. The replacement was much better quality, and as a bonus, they took the wax paper out.

Wax paper that's not supposed to remain in my bagel.

Small, cozy, and not trying to be something it's not. There are a few tables if you want to eat there, but it definitely feels like more of a grab-and-go spot. I ordered a half cheesesteak sandwich with peppers and onions while my wife chose a half cheesesteak without. The sandwich was a good size. You have to be very hungry to finish a half. My wife was only able to get through half of her sandwich. Since we were bringing the sandwiches home, we chose not to get any drinks or sides. Prices are reasonable for what you get. Service was friendly and efficient. You order at the counter and they call you when it's ready. No long wait, even with a few people ahead of us. If you're looking for a quick, solid lunch in Whitehouse Station without the chain restaurant feel, this is a good option. We'll definitely be back when we want something simple and well made.
