Salt Lake Roasting Co.

We had a wonderful time at this cafe we happened to stop by on our way to the Gilgal Sculpture Garden! The staff were all friendly — especially John, the owner of the cafe, who seemed sincerely passionate about coffee and was super welcoming. He even gave us recommendations about where to visit in the city, which we’re glad we added to our list! And Aspen the dog was incredibly adorable, she melted my heart 🥹 We just came for some morning coffee but the tables were also the perfect height to work at, which lots of people were doing. Overall, it’s the kind of cafe we’d frequent if we lived nearby and one we’ll definitely recommend everyone visiting SLC!! It was the perfect start to our trip and we’re very thankful we stopped by.

Really good coffee and a nice selection to choose from! I’m just visiting Salt Lake City, and I’m glad I stopped by before leaving. The barista was super friendly and explained the differences between the coffees, which I appreciated since I’m not a coffee expert. Lovely vibe too—bright, cozy, and perfect for a morning coffee. Definitely a spot I’ll come back to if I ever visit Utah again.

Everyone is so friendly. The coffee is excellent. You can tell the owner has such passion for coffee in everything he does. Really good espanola quiche!! Also the dog is adorable. Thank you for the camping recommendations too!!! You guys made our trip so memorable!

As a home coffee drinker from Indonesia, I have tried many coffee beans from various locations and coffee roasters throughout the country. I have also tried some coffee shops near downtown SLC. Salt Lake Roasting Co. is different. They offer a vast selection of beans from Africa, Asia, my country, Indonesia, and South America. This is an advantage because you can try to find varieties of coffee from around the world and mix them. Tips for coffee drinkers: 1. Identify your preference: Do you like bold coffee or fruity? Or, like me, 60% bold and 40% fruity? 2. Ask the barista which matches your preferences, or you can mix your favorites. 3. Buy pour-over coffee and ask to use 50% Brazil/Sumatra for a bold taste, and 50% Ethiopia/Peru/Any fruity beans to add a fruity taste. You can mix anyt

Salt Lake Roasting company is a gem. You’ve nailed it. All you lucky people in SLC have it good. Passing through here on our way to west coast and found this great place in the am after a search for coffee open early. Tom at the counter was friendly and made on of the best lattes I’ve ever had. He’s the lead roaster here and has been roasting for over 20 years on their vintage 1920s roaster. The store is vibrant and laid out so well. The decor and many items for sale that are coffee related were fun to browse through. Fresh baked muffins, rolls and croissant sandwiches smelled and looked great. Bathrooms are immaculate and clean. Nice little parking lot in back , which can get full so parking off of 800 East street is recommended unless coming early or later in the day. All is AD
