Ferris Coffee & Nut Co.

First time today. Had an excellent latte and the barista was phenomenal! The selection of nuts and snacks was super cool. Great local spot. Definitely check it out!

They supply my work with coffee, and their colombia supremo is by far the most disgusting coffee I've ever had. You know the coffee is terrbile when you turn down free coffee. Even plain classic folders tastes better, and doesn't tear up your gut.

Ferris consistently has some of the best coffee in GR! Their drinks are so good, and their coffee beans are fresh and make a fantastic cup of coffee. I like that I can get coffee without the pretentious attitude of some other shops in town.

Seriously the best whole bean coffee. We've been drinking whole beans for a couple years now and always try new brands both local and nationally and this is the best stuff we've had. There may be better out there but we haven't had anything even close. We especially lose the westcoast blend. Their bean is just 100x smoother than any other coffee we have tried. They flavor is a bit mild but its never fake tasting so mixed with the smoothness its unbeatable.

Enjoyed a great coffee to go after making some retail purchases.

WORST place to work for in Quality Assurance. Production personnel are very kind people, including line leads and managers. Quality Supervisor was friendly, but co-workers or techs, are very much the opposite. Techs wanted you to keep up with their pace and did double the work when doing checks. One tech would go to the bathroom every hour just to go on his phone for 30 mins, while other tech would want trainee to always be doing something. I walked out 2nd day on the job as techs complained I wasn’t “training.” Training was horrible as techs did not show me enough and threw me “on the line” immediately to do checks I had NO idea how to do, based off that every company has own GMP’s. Department should have better trainers, or better techs to show how to actually do the job itself. Techs are NOT doing job sufficiently either, as only care about getting paperwork done and correctly, not the process itself, and spend more time in the bathroom overall. Coming from 4 years of Quality experience, I would give this company 0 stars if I could. No one should have to work under stress, especially coming from their own department, or “team.”

Make sure to set a few hours aside to go to Ferris. Understaffed is an understatement.

I purchased the walnuts at Lucky's in Lakewood Ohio. I nearly broke my teeth because some of the shells are still on the walnuts! There is absolutely no warning on the bag about the possibility of these walnut shells still attached to the nuts. I never had that happen with other brands before. I certainly didn't expect it, but I wouldn't recommend purchasing the nuts unless you don't like your teeth and want to crack them.

Cute little place off the beaten path. Has a coffee bar with a little store to buy fresh coffee, chocolate covered coffee beans or make your own peanut butter.
The fresh peanut butter was delicious. Had a cappuccino and latte while we were there. Bought some cold coffee in a can to bring home.
If you are around Grand Rapids drop in and enjoy a cup.
