Great coffee and very reasonably priced! Perfect stop during a long bike ride on a weekend or a great way to hunker down and catch up on work during the midweek. Staff is absolutely phenomenal. The ambience is remarkable. The owners renovated an old, historic brick storefront that speaks turn-of-the-century Victorian-era Vermont but with an urban, modern chic vibe. Almost an industrial feel with very high ceiling, exposed utilities centered around an active copper coffee roaster.

We stopped at this coffee shop on our way back from a snowboarding trip in Vermont. My husband got an espresso and I got a vanilla latte. We were both pleasantly surprised by how good their coffee was! Usually when I get a latte I find it to be too milky with not enough coffee taste, this place had the perfect balance! The espresso was dark and strong. I also got the pistachio cake which I would get again a thousand times. Honestly I wish I had a place this good closer to our home in Jersey! Highly recommend.

Delicious coffee. We've been wanting to find a real coffee shop in the area and these guys seem to be it

Really liked the place - the coffee quality is so good for the price. The decor is rustic and pretty cool. Do try out their Cortado.

The best coffee I have ever had. Friendly staff. Delicious baked goods- especially the almond croissants! This is a special spot that not only provides delicious drinks and food, but is a vital community gathering space for both law school students and locals alike. I always run into a friend, or meet someone new when I come into First Branch!

First Branch Coffee is one of the best places in the area to get a warm yummy drink. The space is funky and comfortable and is located right downtown in the heart of South Royalton. I highly recommend!

There was only a single barista working the small coffee counter, but she kept the line moving and was working hard. Friendly too. The coffee was very good, though I preferred Carrier in Burlington. I'll definitely visit again when I need a coffee and I'm in the area.

Loved the selection and the splurge on the latte and pastry. Loved that it is a local business and the free wifi. Nice small atmosphere.

Amazing store. It felt fresh but vintage. The mullet of vice sales, coffee in front,beer in the back. Decent pastry and food too.

Fresh roasted coffee 😻The best lattes and cold brew around. Pick up a bag of their Librewation beans for some chocolatey delicious espresso at home. You will not be disappointed!!
