Retro Roasts

I am one of those people who used to visit Higher Grounds every time I came to Russellville. I was so glad to find Retro Roasts, truly reminiscent of a golden oldie. The odd part is I am not a fan of coffee. Please don't discredit my review if you are or avoid visiting if you aren't. They had a nice selection of hot teas available. Seasonally they also offered hot chocolate. It was hard to believe all the options for hot chocolate. I went with dark chocolate with half and half and whip cream. Guess I was feeling decadent. It was a hard decision when one of the other choices was white chocolate with cinnamon and almond milk. What a pleasure to find a hot chocolate superior to Starbucks at a lower price. OH, the scones and other dessert choices to have with it.
You might want to get their for some Christmas shopping. They have a coffee candle all the time but for now they have a vanilla mint with a little coffee on the top. In fact with the variety of small gifts they offer you might need to pick up an anytime, anyone gift.. certificate.
If you have time, check out the upstairs.

Lovely staff and excellent coffee. Just dropped in randomly as the sign caught my eye. Nice decor and chilled atmosphere. I imagine it would be a great place to meet friends and chat.

Good coffee but that’s about it. Wish they had anything warm to eat but it was only some sugary cakes. Cool environment and a big boost for Russellville but needs a bit more variety.

Very cool and eclectic coffee spot in growing downtown area. Great service and coffee. Right night door to a book store, perfect pair for a great afternoon.

Looking for the best, fresh roasted coffee in Russellville? Look no further 😎! Retro Roast has set the new standard for excellence in coffee.

AMAZING. Super friendly!! Delicious coffee and super cute place to visit and sit🥰☺️Highly recommend this place❤️

Fantastic coffee and such a cool space. Excited to have a stand-alone coffee shop in downtown Russellville! Try the Atomic City the next time you stop by.

Cute establishment bringin back downtown Russellville, AR. Toast their own beans! Delicious, not too sweet.

The vibes are exquisite the coffee is really good for the price they have multiple options for lactose intolerant folks and I would sell my kidneys for the pumpkin spice latte l.

This is my first visit to Retro Roasts and it did not disappoint! Retro Roasts was recommended to me by a family member, an absolute coffee aficionado, so I had to visit. The staff was extremely helpful in guiding my purchase of ground coffee and was an absolute pleasure to talk to. Of course as a result of my pleasant conversation and the atmosphere I had to purchase myself espresso, and it was amazing! I hope to revisit soon when the coffee roaster is in operation to admire the electronic sensor setup and speak with the coffee nut roasting the sweet beans that makes an even better brew; you cannot bring someone who loves vintage, coffee, and electronics in to Retro Roasts without them falling in love. I absolutely recommend Retro Roasts for the coffee and the bakery nearby (B Street Bakery) for the desert... Match made in heaven!
