Reviews for First Street Roasters in Temple, TX
My husband and I LOVE this place! We usually go to Waco (it's a closer drive),but we have been making the trip to Temple just... for this coffee! It's definitely worth it, the coffee and options are amazing ???? I haven't found a better coffee shop yet!Also I love the staff they are so kind to us! Read more
This is my favorite coffee shop anywhere!!!! Even better pizza is in the same building. The owners are geniuses. If you're in... central Texas this place is a must on any itinerary. The smell of fresh roasted coffee beans will draw you in. The atmosphere,staff, owners, and great products will keep your longer than expected and coming back for more. Did I mention the huge coveredplayground??? You and the kids will never want to leave. Read more
First time I ever went here, been meaning to. I had to get out for a bit downtown and ordered a large Texas Redhead, rasberry... and vanilla. Very good! Atmosphere was suitably chill. Might take my laptop down here and get some writing done some day. Read more
They have one of the best coffee, not too weak as it has been my experience around town. Very reasonable prices. Their espressos... are perfection. Friendly baristas and nice, casual mood. Read more
The barista was super sweet & made great recommendations! The chai latte was amazing as well, since it's so hard to find a good... balance of spice and it not being too sweet aka like Starbucks. The coffee was fresh & not burnt or sludge tasting. They alsohave a variety of milks to choose from, for those that may be lactose intolerant. The coffee making area was very clean which Idid notice & appreciate, the tables not so much but with such great service and quality of coffee, I can only express a 5 starrating. Read more
I've been going here since it opened and I always have a great time! I've never had a bad drink and I love sampling their... different flavors. The signature Texas Vanilla is my favorite flavor to add to a cap or a latte. They also have great food/snackoptions. 1st street has that big-city coffee shop vibe that I love. It's a great place to get some work done or to bring mydaughter to play. We love the playground, especially the fact that it is closed off. Definitely recommend whether you are justpassing through or a local! Read more
I enjoyed a delicious Americano and did some work on my laptop in this great space. The playground looks really cool. I?ll have... to bring the kids back for pizza at the connected restaurant. This coffee shop is a great addition to Temple. I?ll be back! Read more
Me, looking at a bag of retail coffee roasted two months ago: ?I?m surprised y?all are selling coffee roasted in... August?? Barista, uncaringly: ?Coffee is good for 6 months.? On the one hand, I?m glad you are transparent on roast dates,even when they?re older than expected. On the other hand, you have ?Roasters? in your business name and I would expect freshofferings. $18 for 12oz of 2 month old coffee? Why do that when I can get Starbucks for $15/lb? It might do for now, but here?shoping some real competition opens up in Temple some day soon. Perhaps in the meantime I?ll go with mail order coffee that willbe more fresh for my purposes. Edit: took the bag home and discovered it wasn?t entirely sealed across the top. This is thesecond time this has happened to me with coffee at this store. Disappointing. Read more
