Black Press Coffee Shop #001

My husband and I highly recommend Portside Java. It's great to have a local roaster in Hendersonville. Scott, the owner, is great! Very friendly and knowledgeable, always offering a cup of coffee when we visit. We recently moved away and have tried other roasters near Nashville, but I prefer Portside Java, and being part of his Coffee club allows us to get more coffee at a great price. I will continue to make the drive up there to get our coffee fix!

I missed out by not coming here sooner. If you need really good, FRESH roasted coffee anywhere in this area this is the place to come. The trendy expensive coffee shops in Nashville rarely have any coffees that were roasted even that week, but Portside had several. Definitely where I'll be coming from now on.

Great place for buying premium roasted coffee. Scott, the owner, roasts some of the best coffee I have tasted outside of the West Coast. If you are looking for one of the best micro-roasters around, Portside Java is the place to go!!!

Such an awesome coffee shop! Hendersonville has needed somewhere that roasts their own beans AND serves coffee. Clay and Anna are awesome people that truly care about their craft, and the people in their community. Definitely go get some coffee from here before going to starbucks!

I found out about this place from a mailer advertisement, thus I was not sure what to expect when I would arrive. Portside Java is in a bit of a run down strip of businesses that ultimately adds to the "off the beaten track" feel of the business. On entry, it was readily apparent there was not a lot of space for customers, though the combined decorations, lighting, and inventory displays made for an exceptionally relaxing and open environment. At first I was disappointed to find out single cups of coffee were not sold; however, Clay was happy to pour a sample for the two of us as we talked about the business and his working knowledge of the roasting process and the effects of the coffee's flavor and texture. I tried the Mexico Huatusco roast. It was flavorful with a tinge of acidity. After allowing it to cool, the flavors developed into something just as delightful to taste with a smoother finish.

Black Press is wonderful!
The staff are wonderful and the coffee is exceptional. I always have the organic dark chocolate so I feel in still being "good and healthy" and satisfying my coffee craving !

Super cute aesthetically pleasing coffee shop that used to just be a roaster. Good selection of coffee. Great prices! Surprisingly trendy place at the end of this little strip mall on Walton Ferry in Hendersonville.

The only warning I would give is that this is a roaster. Nothing wrong with that, but it's something I would want to know. The owner is incredibly friendly, and the coffee that tasted was tasty. If you're looking for a quiet place to grab some locally roasted beans, this is where you should go!

Best Avocado Toast I have ever had !!!!!! Wonderful Coffee Too !!

I was in the area and asked google for coffee near me and this place popped up! I’m glad I came. I had a delicious surprise coffee. The owner was very nice. Will definitely be back and I’ll bring friends!
