Very crowded. But it has good coffee. The tiramisu wasn't the best but it wasn't awful either. Great wifi, I didn't have an issue despite the place being crowded. Service dog friendly and ADA bathroom

Laura Victoria Sanchez Barrero14.02.2025

Great spot to work and have a good time with friends, staff is really friendly, great wifi and is open until midnight!!

Ann S14.02.2025

Loveeddd the gyro sandwich with fries!! It's really good and I was surprised how good it was. The meat is tender and flavorful. Has a good amount of tzatziki sauce. The fries seem to be made in-house. I like the added red spice. No need for ketchup. I would definitely order this again in a heartbeat.

They have pastries, cake, chocolate candy, cold beverages, and wine, in addition to a range of coffee and tea options.

There is more seating than parking spots exclusively for Roots & Brew. Their seats have good cushioning. The parking lot was full mid-afternoon on a Friday and had to park across the street.

wifi speed is very good. There are multiple outlets but not enough. Lots of people come to work/study and stick around for a while.

The women's restroom is clean. The staff does a good job of cleaning up the tables as soon as it's empty.

Music is played in the background but it's instrumental music.

Wish this cafe was closer to where I live. Rare to find a coffee shop that stays open till 12 midnight daily.

We recently discovered Roast & Brew and now it is definitely a favorite. Delicious coffee, smoothies, and food. Friendly service. Cool coffee/bistro vibe. Free wifi so some come here to work. We love this place and it's a great addition to the neighborhood.

Kaitlyn Chan14.02.2025

Worst coffee I’ve ever had. The stars are for the ambience and good wifi. I ordered an avocado toast and it’s terrible. Very plain and the toast was burnt. The coffee was extremely water down. It’s more like coffee water. Do not recommend.

Yasaman Adel14.02.2025

I love this place for studying and work. Amazing food, wifi, low music selections. And safe.
They open late.

Emma Swanson14.02.2025

Great environment for both a relaxing catch up with a friend or to work during the day. Indoor and outdoor areas provide lots of table options. The food is really good and plenty for keeping you motivated during work. The coffee, specifically vanilla latte, is awesome! MANY options.

Ashley14.02.2025

I’ve been to this coffee shop a few times because I enjoy the environment, they have a nice small outside area. I’m not a coffee drinker and have only had their chai tea, which was okay. I’ve ordered everything from their pastries, to snacks to even their entree items. Bottom line: food is hit or miss.

I visited today hoping to get some work done and sat outside as I always do. After awhile, a young lady approached me and asked if I ordered anything. I said no, and continued to do my work. She awkwardly stood there and after a few “ums” from her I figured she was hinting at something. So, I asked her did I have to order something to sit there and she replied yes. So, I left.

I’ve been here before and didn’t order anything, not sure if the policy has changed but I do find it odd for a coffee shop, especially one with no wifi*, to not allow any one to sit outside especially when there’s no one else there. I probably would have ordered something if I was just being checked on, but that wasn’t the case.

I may be back, I may not. But, at least I know I have to order something!

*I’ve only used my hotspot here so I’m unsure if they actually have internet or not.

Lylia Benhacine14.02.2025

Delicious breakfast and a delicious frappe. This would be a good place to work too.

Nadim Nabi14.02.2025

Very nice coffee shop with a good selection of coffees, teas and food. Since my last review they upgraded their internet and it's a good place to work from.

William Schwartz14.02.2025

Good spot to hop in, grab a coffee and do some work. Really enjoyed the vibes and they did a great flat white 👌

Troy Monteforte14.02.2025

Fantastic coffee shop that has lots of space for you to read or use a laptop.

Ginger Simon14.02.2025

Great atmosphere! Nice staff. Unique coffee options! Sadly, too many people there camped out to work. I just wanted to just kill some time before another meeting. I will definitely return, but only with a fully charged laptop battery!

Ryan panahi14.02.2025

Food was good, but unfortunately 75% of the seating is hogged by people on their laptops.

Natalie Sorsby14.02.2025

This place is great for studying or to hang out. Lots of outlets for laptops. The Greek salad was yumm. The hash browns are country fried potatoes, very crispy in a good way. I also tried a bagel sandwich, the turkey and egg were excellent. The manager is a handsome gentleman too 😉

Jason Seeberger14.02.2025

Such a relaxing environment to eat,drink coffee and socialize quietly like everyone or work on your laptop along w excellent Greek food!
