Review of Rock City Coffee Roasters

Rock City Coffee Roasters:

Rock City Coffee Roasters is a worker-owned cooperative that has been roasting their own coffee since 1999. They are located at 252 Main St, Rockland, ME 04841. The coffee shop is open from Monday to Friday from 8:00 am to 2:00 pm. They are closed on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. The primary categories of the business are coffee roasters and coffee shop.

Their coffee is delicious and of high quality. They roast their own beans, which gives them the ability to control the quality of the coffee. They offer a variety of coffee blends that cater to different tastes. Customers can choose from light, medium, and dark roasts. The coffee shop has a cozy atmosphere, and the employees are super nice. They provide great customer service and are always willing to help customers choose the right coffee blend for them.

Rock City Coffee Roasters is not just a coffee shop; it is also a great place to hang out with friends or work remotely. The shop has free Wi-Fi, and there are plenty of tables and chairs available for customers to use. The location is convenient, and there is ample parking available.

While the coffee shop has received some negative reviews about their public restrooms, it is important to note that the business has taken steps to address these concerns. The coffee shop is a gender-neutral and LGBTQ+ safe place. They have a recording that plays when customers enter the restroom, which promotes the message of settling for Biden.

If you are looking for a great cup of coffee and a cozy place to hang out, Rock City Coffee Roasters is the place to be.

Grab a great coffee and drink in the morning sea air and spectacular views of Rockland harbor.

Authentic Italian style espresso with a flavorful roast and great customer service.

The coffee is beyond amazing.. it's crave worthy!! We placed a small order online (we live in Cleveland) and it came super fast! The people who we have spoken with on the phone with just so very nice and were incredibly helpful. But the coffee is just out of this world and we will definitely be placing another order and recommending them to all our friends and family!! You should check them out if you are in the area, but definitely order online if you're not!! Thank you!! You rock, Rock City!! :)

Great place for anything coffee related. Accessories, exotic beans, lattes. The best part is if you need something they don't have they'll help you find it.

These guys are great. We were here for a different reason than most - we learned of Rock City from a family member and stopped in one day because we wanted to put coffee in welcome bags for our wedding. Rock City had a number of options which we solidified with Kevin a few weeks out from the event. A few days before we picked up a bunch of ground 1/4lb bags of their coffee, even including a custom label. Our guests loved both getting the coffee and drinking it! Great working with and great work by Rock City Roasters.

Best public restroom EVER! I just needed a place to relieve myself and it was perfect. I love the fact that it was Gender Neutral and a LBGTQ+ Safe place! When I entered a little recording played saying “Settle for Biden!”. I felt so relaxed and at home. xoxo

Rock City Cafe has great hospitality! I had the Bahn Mi Wrap - and thought it was both delicious and very filling. As a performer, they seem to draw their own crowd, which was very nice! Everyone who works there is attentive and welcoming. I had a great time there.

I'm giving 5 stars because i really want to see a decent coffee roastery come out of Maine. The employees were great and the selection was wide.

But there are some very fundamental problems with the way they are handling their coffee, and if compared to a cafe outside of Maine it is very much below average coffee.

I would really like to see them study their field more, and perhaps lessen their wide variety of beans to a few beans of better quality.

The pour over was not prepared right and served way too hot. The espresso was not very strong and tasted like stale beans were used.

They're going to have to seriously educate themselves on a lot of things before I would call them coffee connoisseurs, but I really hope they make it.
