From our beloved regulars
Great friendly service from the staff, and the Parsells breakfast sandwich on a croissant was yummy. The cafe is beautiful with lots of local artwork and window seating, and I love how they are connected with local ministry work.
One of the best bagels I’ve had in awhile. Pour over coffee was as fresh as it gets. Kind staff. Plenty of seating. Profits give back to the community. Highly recommend.
Beautiful interior, lots of extra seating! The pumpkin spice coffee was so good along with the breakfast bagel sandwich, it had so much yummy cheese on it and was melted just right! The pastries were fresh and delicious. Great selection, super friendly staff, atmosphere and prices! We’ll definitely be back!
Perfect little neighborhood spot! Great coffee, and the humans are super friendly. Plenty of indoor seating for a chat with a friend or to bring your laptop for a focused session.
I was looking for a place to hang out and read and found this great coffee shop. The people are really nice and the cold brew is excellent. It has a great funky vibe and I will certainly come back.
Finally great coffee and a nice vegan and one normal bagel.
This neighborhood coffee cafe and roaster is also a not for profit organization dedicated to teaching and providing a safe workplace for local and disadvantaged young people. The coffee is expertly toasted and the drinks and food are superb. The cafe itself has a laid back neighborhood vibe whether you are hanging with friends, doing some work on your laptop or just popping by for a coffee and muffin this place has it.
Absolutely love this place. Their lattes are hands down the best I've had - perfectly balanced, not overly sweet, and you can actually taste the espresso. On top of that, they look amazing every time. The prices are unbeatable, especially for the quality you get. Everyone here is genuinely kind and welcoming, and the food is always fresh. The vibe is great, the music is on point, and it's just an all-around awesome place to be. Truly the best café in Rochester by far. Highly recommend.
This is such a cute place, tucked into the neighborhood. The breakfast bowls and pastries are amazing. The cappuccino I had this morning was so good. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a breakfast spot. They work within the community and they’re just good people.
Let me start by mentioning New City Cafe & Roastery is definitely unique in hiring young adults from the neighbourhood and giving them the opportunity to learn some skills. What a fantastic ethos! The interior is full of earthy tones which exudes warmth. With cushioned window seating is perfect for reading, people watching, or a good old chinwag with a friend or two. Not only that…there is also a sofa, lots of tables dotted around, a high chair for babies, a coat stand and free WiFi. We ordered the Drip Coffee, Cookie Butter Latte and a Maple Cinnamon Chai which was exceptional! Felt like a lingering hug in a cup. I would highly recommend the Maple Cinnamon Chai. We loved the wide selection of sweeteners such as agave syrup, honey and Stevia. We don’t see many cafes offering the above. The fresh ground coffee had a packed date that indicated when the coffee beans were ground. This is not very common so we were pleasantly surprised. Kane was fabulous. Very smiley and friendly. There is plenty of off street parking.
