Archive Coffee & Bar

This is a great space. The interior itself is gorgeous. The drinks are delicious. The space is welcoming and inviting. It’s a great place to meet with a friend or coworker, work or study for a little bit.

We keep going back here! Love the vibes, staff, drinks and food! They come up with great foodie ideas at a good price. Good for date nights and check them out on the web, they post themed costume events like superheros etc. Foodie must!

Amazing.. Archive is the place for coffee, tea, cocktails & food crafted by a team of passionate, like minded individuals who all clearly understand & respect their ingredients & spirits.. From the quality of what you'll be served to the level of service, it's beyond 10/10.. huge appreciation for the staff & major kudos to Jp who in on her day off, was happy to craft a London fog w espresso. Thank you!!
So, if house crafted ingredients in all their coffees, teas, cocktails & chef created food are on your list of needs when in Salem.. you MUST stop by Archive Coffee & Bar.
Crafted with passion, Created for you.

Things I loved about this place:
The atmosphere, my london fog.
Avocado toast was weak though, very bland. I would revisit this recipe. I would smash the avocados and make it into a spread, add spices, cherry tomatoes, garlic, balsamic drizzle etc.
My boyfriend said the burrito was okay but the main thing we liked was the green sauce with it. I put some on my avocado toast as well because it was so bland. Prices were reasonable.
My boyfriend wanted a bloody mary but they didn't have it per cashier/waiter.
I would also suggest not having wife beaters as an attire for workers because it's not a gym or a cheap club, it immediately cheapens the restaurant.
Few employees were walking around behind the bar eating that should not be a thing.
Just a few friendly suggestions to make your business more successful. Will come back for a coffee and dinner to try.
Thank you.

Great coffee and espresso by day. Funky bar by night. Food is excellent with sizable portions. Friendly staff make the experience pleasant.

Love. We don't venture into downtown much, but when we do we like to stop in for belly warming drinks and delicious foods. We've had the opportunity to enjoy both the daytime coffee scene and the evening bar atmosphere. Wonderful setting and friendly people.

Good vanilla latte but a little pricey at $5.50. Very cute spot. Would go back.

Excellent selection of libations and the staff is well above par! Fresh, inspired menu of small and large plates that never disappoint. Archive will be a regular stop when I am in town. ***Try the whiskey revolver!

I’ve always patronized Archive during weekday mornings but dropped in on a Sunday evening. Was really disappointed by service and attitude of staff who seemingly was annoyed I came in alone and wasn’t a hipster. They only became attentive to my needs when I got up to leave to make sure I paid them for “service”. Hope this was just a bad night and not indicative of normal business practices.

My partner usually doesn't drink coffee, but she loved the latte here.

I think she liked the design, but it tasted great too!
