Three Ships Coffee Roasters

Three Ship is one of my favorite Hampton Roads coffee shops and probably the best local roaster. Their new Downtown Norfolk shop is really cool. Great vibe, cool music, free WiFi, and tons of space. Great addition to the area!

I accidentally found this shop when I was walking down Grandby a few months ago and finally had the chance to stop in.

I looked in the window and saw their equipment and thought “this place must be incredible!” So I was excited to get a chance!

Their breakfast sandwich “the N.O.M” was good without being greasy or trying too hard. It was a really great experience.

Their “Luis Chaseoy” as a pour over was fruity and clean. The baristas knew what they were doing and were efficient. They addressed my 2 pet peeves with coffee shops. 1. They serve coffee for here in ceramic (no need for a paper cup if I’m staying!) and 2. They preheated the cups!

I also had a cappuccino. While it wasn’t a traditional Italian Capp, it was a really well done American/ Third wave one. I really would come back for another one.

This is a wonderful representation of 3rd Wave Coffee on the east coast. They appreciate the art, and they protect their product.

Can’t wait to come back again.

I was visiting from Seattle. Usually when I travel I try to get coffee from a few different places hoping to find somewhere a bit better than the day before. On this trip Three Ships was my second attempt and after that I didn't even bother trying anywhere else because I knew it wouldn't hold up.

Over the few days I was in town I had a mocha (probably the best I've had outside of the PNW), a pourover (easily on par with what I can get at home, I liked it enough that I grabbed a bag of beans to bring back with me), and a breakfast sandwich (also egg-cellent).

If you're trapped in Norfolk and looking for a good cup of coffee, this is without a doubt your best bet.

Music, interior design, and just general atmosphere was very good. They have a spacious seating area. It's definitely on the pricier side. We got the pungo strawberry latte and the matcha and honestly wasn't that big of a fan of either.

Easy walk for me to get a great morning Vanilla Latte & Breakfast Biscuit. Service is always excellent and you have ring side seats to Granby Street activity!!

I ordered the Deluxe Avocado Toast. The taste was great. The spices, and pickled onions really make it. However....when I ordered a 10$ avocado toast, and a thin piece of store bought sandwich loaf bread was used...I was Disappointed

Like another customer, I tried to order a coffee (to-go) here with my dog and a lady immediatly asked me to leave for having my dog in there (okay, I understand). However, I was simply hoping to support their business and grab a coffee and be on my way. I took my business up the street to aLatte Caffe and grabbed a delicious crepe from across the street. More accomidating for the locals and their puppers!

In a great part of town, ran by nice folks.

TINY cups of coffee this was 8 bucks - for a “large” not good value when you can go down the street and get a coffee double this size same price.

Coffee is overpriced and the baristas are RUDE. 3 stars because the coffee is good and they have unique flavors and some decent biscuits. But for the money and the dining experience, it would be better to go to literally any other coffee shop on Granby.

My favorite shop in town! The staff is awesome, coffee is top notch and the food is great too. 11/10 recommend if you’re looking for a great place to grab a quick cup or stay and work for a while. Love them!
