Roast Coffeehouse

This used to be Fox Hollow Coffee and Winebar. It's since been taken over and rebranded as ROAST - Blondo, following on from a few other ROASTs around the area. The coffee is excellent although for my taste it isn't quite as hot as I would expect; the owner explained that they do this on purpose so the milk has better flavor and is smoother (in the lattes, mochas etc) and she's right. The store is pleasant inside, a little sparse at this time as they're getting things organized.

There's plenty of tables and power outlets, also a nice fireplace in the middle which will be fun to sit by on the colder days.

The staff are always very polite and helpful. There's also a drive-up if you're not able to stop inside.

If you need your fix of coffee and want something different (or indeed, better) than the usual chain places, then you could do plenty worse than ROAST.

I ordered an Americano with steamed heavy cream. The young lady said they could not do that but they could with 1/2 & 1/2. I said okay. I got my drink and sat at a table. The drink tasted very strange. The seal on the side of the cup started to leak coffee. I went up and asked for a new cup. The lady transferred it to a new cup. The coffee was black. I asked her about the steamed 1/2 & 1/2 and she told me there was some on the counter (cold and in a container) and I could use that. The place is lacking customer service.

I'm hesitant to write this review because I love how few people seem to know this cute little coffee shop is here, and that means I can almost always get a seat by the fireplace. The coffee is good, the staff is friendly, and did I mention the fireplace?

My FAVORTIE coffee shop in all of Omaha. Stop in and try their Carmel Coffee Blender. It is heaven in a cup!!! And the prices are amazing!!

I too wish the coffee could be hotter. Thankful for this NW Omaha location. Scooters coffee is becoming dreadful now that they are on every corner but Roast coffee tastes much better.

Really enjoy this Hill of Beans coffee shop, that has a location in Aksarben, and now here on Blondo. So close to us now! Sorry Scooters, but man Roast is tasty.

Very private spot! Perfect for little get together. Friendly staff and fair prices! The cookies were delicious!

Great location. Great coffee. Friendly staff. Super fast service.
You can’t go wrong here!

Coffee and service is great! The only thing I noticed is that the cups lids do not stay on tight.

Nice spot with a top-notch staff. The coffee is great, and they have a few baked goods and alcohol options.
