STOKED Roasters + Coffeehouse

STOKED makes some fantastic espresso specialty beverages. Their Carmel latte is great, and the vanilla latte is fantastic. However, their americanos and pour-overs were a little uninspiring. The atmosphere was great, staff were friendly and helpful in selecting beans. The location is awesome, as it’s easy to stop in for coffee then walk down by the river.

Revised 12/16/17: I'm not one to take freebies from business owners or managers based on reviews (as offered after my below review), so since I was back in the area I figured I would swing by again and try the espresso on my own. I'm pleased to say that it is MUCH improved from my last visit. The three blend was very smooth and the acidity was much more complimentary of a traditional shot of espresso. I was also surprised at the attention the barista gave to the design in my wife's foam considering it was to go and would just have a lid put on it. Much better experience than last time! --------- The double espresso only filled up half an espresso mug and was the most acidic shot of espresso I've ever had. My fiancee even advised me not to finish it it was so acidic. The ham and gruyere croissant was the highlight of our stop, and even that wasn't heated all the way through with cheese melting out and cold ham inside. Maybe we just struck out on this visit as other reviewers seem to enjoy it, but that espresso was unbearable, and I'm a coffee glutton who will drink just about anything... Unfortunately I cannot recommend this as a good coffee roaster, as their espresso was just that bad.

Great little coffee spot across from the park. Perfect to stop in before a stroll. Good coffee options, including some rare seen ones. The Matcha Goddess and Cardamom Vanilla latte were unique and delicious. This place is legit!

Great microroasters, well balanced blends. They have that hemp milk!
