The Source Coffee Roastery + Taproom

This is the best coffee shop in Sioux Falls. Lots of options. Also tons of your choices in the evening. Start your day here with the morning pick me up and end here with an evening cool and unwind. Try the Americano how little bit of oatmeal! And don’t forget to make it iced.

Neat little place. Dog friendly, and employee happy! A number of different beers on tap and then of course the coffee and teas. While there were plenty of what I would call "weird" ingredient combinations, everyone in the place seemed to enjoy the mix. I'm a plain coffee guy and my wife had a London Fog. The courtyard is so quiet, great place to chill.

A bit slow when it's busy, but good, made-to-order espresso. If you dislike fruity roasts then this is NOT the spot for you 😅 but a lot of that flavor can be balanced out with some milk (can you tell I'm not into fruity coffee? lol). They also have very fun seasonal drinks as well!

"A SMALL PLACE WITH A BIG PERSONALITY'"

This review is based solely on my experience and personal opinion.

I've been many times to Sioux Falls but yesterday, 1/7/2023, was my first at the "The Source Coffee Roastery + Taproom".

I was looking for a Coffee shop and this place popped up on my google search, and the odd part is they had positive reviews only.
I got there at around 3pm and the place was packed, I had 5 customers waiting ahead of me while most of the customers stood by the counter with their glass of Beer or cold brew while chatting with their friends.......what strikes you immediately when you walk in is that everybody is super-relaxed, friendly, happy and smiling, which is definitely a good sign when checking out a new place.

PLACE: Cute place, modern-industrial look with a high-end design vibe. Minimally furnished but yet cozy and comfy. The grey ceiling, the white walls and the tiles/stone mounted around the counter make the room cold, and to compensate that they could use the "green" of some live plants, like Succulents, to bring some warmth. I love the huge amount of light coming in from the big window that overlooks the street and I personally consider the fixture a real delight.
It is a small area, but you can easily sit 40 customers.
I would also add just a few armchairs and a couch, maybe with a rug.

FOOD: They do not have much when it comes to food, I have seen two options only for the customers that drink beer and wine and for the ones that enjoy a sweet treat there are some muffins, bars and other packaged bakery products, like croissants.

DRINKS:
Alcoholics: They have a big Selection of Beer, Wine, soft drinks and club soda..... and many other Specialty drinks.
There is an entire wall, with a big selection that offers 16 unique styles of craft beer sourced from artisan breweries, where you can select the one you like, scan your prepaid card and draft yourself a glass (Taproom). I found it pretty cool actually.
COFFEE: they have a pretty good selection of Coffee beans from different regions of the world, and they roast it themselves. I always consider in-house-roasting a great "plus" for a high-end Coffee shop.
Their selection of Coffee-based drinks (Hot/Cold) is pretty big.
I loved their cappuccino and the "LONDON FOG" tea...

LOCATION: it is downtown Sioux Falls and it is located in a multi-business kind of building. inside the same building is a restaurant, a craft store and something else.

STUFF: The girls that work there are just amazing.... friendly yet professional, sunny, knowledgeable when it comes to the products they sell.... today, they realized we were distracted, and they brought the drinks to our table, very kind of them.
and I am pretty sure that everybody agrees when I say that "We all love our coffee when it's served with a big smile".
Two of the girls went above and beyond by helping me and my friend finding a good ethnic restaurant in town. I do not know their names but thank you for your help regardless.

CLEANLINESS: very clean, tables, benches, floor, even the windows. The girls are always around cleaning and picking up glasses and mugs when they are not making drinks and serving.

PRICES: if you consider the quality they offer, prices can be considered lower than average.

KIDS/PETS: They are kids and pets friendly.

CONCLUSION: definitely a MUST-GO coffee shop if you are in Sioux Falls, especially if you want to relax, drink a very good coffee or a glass of beer and enjoy the pleasant atmosphere.

Very nice place, the atmosphere is awesome! But…. I’ve only ever gotten coffee drinks from here and have been disappointed. Maybe they’re more so known for the on tap beer, but I would not recommend ordering coffee from here. Paid for a half full poorly made cup of coffee.

I went to the source today to meet with my wedding photographer, I'd never been there before so I didn't know what to expect. I ordered what I always get from coffee shops, a chai tea with almond milk. I wasn't expecting anything out of the ordinary but this blew my mind. It was honestly the best chai tea I've ever had and I can not wait to go back and get another one.

What a cool vibe this place has. I'm normally a coffee purist and steer away from "coffee drinks" but I decided to give it a try on this visit.

They've figured out how to make coffee based drinks that are more about flavor than sugar. I tasted the "Earth Child" which is a matcha green tea drink that I will order on a future visit when I've had enough coffee.

The baristas are exceptional. They listen, engage, and they know their products. Best of all they aren't coffee snobs who make curious customers feel stupid for asking questions.

I would highly recommend this coffee shop to people who truly enjoy coffee as well as those who are interested in learning about good coffee and the many different ways to enjoy it.

I truly enjoy coffee and have explored it around the world. This is only the second coffee shop I've found in Sioux Falls where it is fun to experience coffee that is well roasted and well brewed.

Nice job to the person who came up with the idea of a coffee shop and tap room. I haven't tried the beers but I'm comfortable giving high praise to the coffee section.

Kudos to the baristas, Hayden and Karissa for exceptional service and a delicious drink respectively. The Earth Child was Karissa's creation.

Love every cup of coffee I get here! Enjoy how I can spend a chill night with friends trying new beers or work on homework. Honestly, it’s my favorite spot to go to on weekends whenever I’m in Sioux Falls.

Genuinely one of the nicest & most relaxing cafes I have ever visited. It’s been 3 years & I still think about this place. When I make it back to SD this will be my first stop.

Great little coffee shop in downtown Sioux Falls. Will definitely be back!!
