Customer Reviews
So good. The best coffee. I'm a huge coffee snob, I have all the best gadgets to improve my morning coffees. Finding out about Coffee by the Roast was another game changer that took my coffee to the next level. I love their coffee. I can finally have coffee shop level coffee every day. They also have excellent customer service and a great selection.
The owners of this establishment could not be any kinder, hence the 2 stars given. However, the coffee is not at all what it should be given the price. I am so so glad I did not splurge for the 73.00 coffee here. My first order, second photo beans in the plastic cup, were ordered to be roasted "city roast" which is 420 degree. The cup if coffee above that plastic cup was roasted at 420 from a different roaster (also came in the mail from NC). The beans I got from CBR were not only too dark, but they were unevenly roasted, oily (indicating old beans) and all different sizes (indicating not a single orgin like I had paid for) and many were burnt BLACK burnt! It made for a cup of coffee that tasted a lot like black licorice in a Chemex pour over. I called and they were very kind! I mean REALL
I usually don't leave reviews but this place deserves one! The very first time I ordered my first batch of coffee beans from Coffee by the Roast, immediately I was able to pick up the difference from all those other brands. If you live nearby and want fresh coffee this is definitely the place. I placed a few orders and have never been disappointment and will continue to buy my coffee here!
Paul and Carrie, by far, provide the best coffee in the Country. I have had coffee from the NE—SW, SE, NW, SW, etc. No one can match their selection, and they roast the beans perfectly; Paul has the magic touch. You will not find better quality coffee anywhere in the continental US.
I am a very serious coffee drinker, and I relish superior coffee. When my custom roaster in Brooklyn, relocated and was bought out, I needed to find another source of exquisitely sourced and roasted beans for my daily grind. After a bit of searching, I found Coffee by the Roast, and have never looked back. They are wonderful to deal with, the coffee arrives so fresh and delicious. We created our own custom blend from a few of their different beans and roasts as well as enjoying some of them "straight". Our friends, relatives and clients all love it. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is serious about enjoying and consumming coffee.
