An amazing coffee shop with the kindest and most helpful staff! I have a once-a-week workout group that meets super early in the morning on Wednesdays and wanted a place to socialize afterwards. We checked out Salt Lake Roasting Co. one week and will never look back. In addition to being an awesome space, the staff, particularly Tom, have started showing up extra early on Wednesdays to make sure enough coffee is ready for our large group. Were so thankful to have found this place. Thank you so much for hosting us and serving up the best coffee!

Super cool spot! It has two floors, plenty of coffee books, greenery, and coffee beans from around the world! Lots of spots to sit at. Pretty good coffee and surprisingly, the medium hot latte came in a big cup! They also have a vegan quesadilla, vegan chimichanga, flax muffin, and everything bagel with hummus and guacamole!

Ill definitely be back to enjoy some coffee on the deck.

Great place to drink coffee, eat and work. They have a variety of coffee from different regions which is great. Im a big fan of fruity Brazilian coffees and I could choose the region I wanted. The food was excellent and reasonable priced espically the burritto. The place has a good amount of electrical outlets for laptop workers. Has an outside area to sit too if you want to sit outside. And a upstair area too. Service is good. And really nice trendy vibe.

Great place! Excellent service. Delicious coffee. The interior atmosphere is a funky mix of just trendy enough without being obnoxious and super cozy. Our workout group comes in once a week and despite being a large group, were always welcome with a smile.

Salt Lake Roasting Company is so great and welcoming! Our workout group shows up every week on Wednesday mornings at 6:30 am and we are a handful! But the roasting company team welcomes us every week with hot coffee and smiles! Thanks so much!

I love ❤ this place. Great setting for enjoying a GREAT cup of coffee. The staff here is very helpful. John is an expert on coffee and if you are lucky enough to talk to him you will see this for yourself. If you love coffee this is the place to come get it. John has done the research and brings you coffee from around the best coffee growing countries. Thank you John. Ill be in for my monthly fix soon.

Good coffee, great staff.The quiche I got was delicious and appeared homemade. The avocado toast didn’t use fresh avocados, it looked like the guacamole you get in small containers at the grocery store and the salsa on top of it was also store bought. Still - it was good food and would recommend!

Incredibly informed staff who could rattle off tasting notes on demand. A must in SLC for coffee lovers and caffeine consumers alike.

Review №14

Love this place. Locally owned and they have many single origin coffee beans that you can get made into your favorite caffeinated beverage, or taken to go as whole beans or ground in your style of choice. My favorite is their Ethiopia Natural, but strong marks for the El Salvador, which I have right now!

I have been coming here since their older location across the street from the library. The Salt Lake Roasting Company still stands as my quintessential hangout spot. I love going there for the drinks and the atmosphere. Lively enough to enjoy a conversation with your friends on the weekend, yet chill enough to pack in a little bit of work-study on a weekday. The owner takes a ton of pride in the business and it shows in the staff as well. I appreciate what they do for the SLC culture.

This is my favorite coffee shop in SLC. Such a cool, OG coffee house vibe. The people are friendly and theres so many different roast options.

Review №22

One of the best coffee spots in SLC. Robust, unique flavors. Their lobby is closed for COVID and they are taking a lot of safety precautions for the communitys health. A lot of their stuff (chai, mocha for example) is made in house. You can really taste the high quality and craft. Today I tried their veggie burrito as well. Absolutely delicious, although a bit spendy for the size. I cant wait to come again!

Came to town for a vacation. My rule while traveling is “don’t go to the same place twice.” We’ll even though I came here my first morning I came back my last morning as well. The food was good. Coffee and chai was great. Staff was nice. Can’t go wrong coming here.

Review №27

SLRC has been a long time favorite of mine. The pastries are delicious and the coffee is the best. I have compared other local roasters and found that other coffees do not compare to the rich full flavors of Salt Lake Roasting Co. coffee. I’m no expert on coffee I just know what I like. Other roasters simply don’t roast as well as SLRC. Thanks for the many years of great coffee. I’ll keep going out of my way to buy my beans here.

Review №28

Lovely location with a huge selection of coffees. I dont think any roaster in SLC does this big a selection. The coffee is great, be it the Nitro or your regular Espresso. The options for quick bites is equally impressive. With an open airy interior and lots of sitting space, no wonder this place is such a local favorite.

Some of the freshest coffee in Salt Lake City! If you are looking for coffee downtown stop into the coffee roasters. They are true coffee masters. They serve all kinds of coffee from all around the world. You can get your fix from anywhere. The new location is a bit smaller but it is a lot nicer. Tons of study space and fresh smelling coffee if you come at the right times.

Ive been going here on and off for 15 years, since they were at their old location. Always tasty coffee, usually a good dessert selection and relaxed atmosphere. I preferred the old location, but thats probably just because I spent so much time there in college. Coffee still tastes the same :) and thats what really matters.

One of my favorite local coffee shops! I have an espresso machine at home and I usually buy my beans here. They have been very helpful at answering my questions. The roasts I get from them are always fresh and have been easy to dial in for a good shot on my home espresso machine.

When in Salt Lake recently I sampled coffee from three different roasteries. I wont write a negative review on any, because they all had quality coffee. But in my opinion, The Salt Lake Roasting Co. was the best for flavor and selection. Salt Lake is lucky to have several roasteries.

They’ve got a legit food menu! Some neat seating outside and good vibes. Coffee was just okay; latte was a little too milky. Kinda like drinking warm milk. But my boyfriend got a cappuccino and he liked his! Maybe just don’t get the latte.

Large selection of high quality roasts for a delicious cup of fresh made coffee. The owner made our day (or whole road trip from Seattle to San Diego), opening and making us fresh cups for the road before we realized they were actually closed on Sundays. Caffeinated us from Salt Lake City to Zion. Thank you so much,SLCR!

The coffee is the beat in Utah. Its a great place to study and chill or do work. The regulars are friendly and great conversationalists. The baristas are by far the nicest people Ive met and are fast and friendly. The owner always makes sure that you are enjoying yourself and takes great pride in his coffee, vintage coffee roaster and his establishment.

Visited here during the pandemic. Staff were fast, safe and efficient---and so friendly. I had a great cup of coffee so I returned the next day to buy some roasted beans to take home for myself and others. Visited again! Staff were so friendly and the coffee is excellent. The treats for my dog were appreciated. Thank you.

I was greeted with a dazzling smile hidden behind a covid mask. With knowledge, friendliness, and precision, Michael exceeded expectations of customer service.Delicious. The perfect blend of eggs, veggies and cheese. House made condiments are the finishing touch!Exceptional. Two shots of espresso, topped with light and creamy foam ended with a sweet sensation of caramel.If you are looking to satisfy your stomach and tickle your tastebuds, look no further.

Best roasted coffees ever. The owner has traveled the world. In search of the best coffe sources. His knowledge of coffee,selections of varieties and skill in roasting is the best I have ever encountered. I order all my coffee for my family and get it delivered direct to my home. The Ethiopian long berry and Tanzania varieties are my absolute favorites. Their french roast is truly an original delight.If you love coffee you will fall in love with this place.

One of the better brunchs weve had in a long time! Really nice cafe.Super friendly staff. Service was awesome and we loved the vibe.Food matched the service. Generous portions and solid execution. Liked sports monikers for combos - single, double play, field goal, etc. They probably love sports as much as me, which is why I liked everyone there.Some of the better french toast Ive ever had! Thick toast w/ the right balance of dredge to bread (TM).Michigan hash was also awesome! Meat, cheese, potatoes, eggs, yum.

UPDATE: several attempts later and I am now comfortable moving to a 5/5. Honestly just think I caught a couple bad batches, but have tried a lot of other roasts since and bought green beans as well and feel theyve adjusted well to COVID times and Ive had several good experiences in a row now. Thanks for the improvement!Very kind people and good service (would give 5/5 on that), good environment for meetings and working on a computer, nice looking snacks/food. Unfortunately not a fan of the coffee at all. Have tried several times and the espresso tastes stale, woody, and just a bit funky to be honest. Maybe just not what Im looking for, but each time I was hoping for better taste and was just just not too pleased with the drink.
