Roast Rider Coffee + Tea

Roast Rider Coffee is clean and spacious. I ordered an Iced Dirty Chai Latte that was solid - a great balance of spice and espresso without being too sweet.

One of the few coffee places I've found around here with an Espresso Tonic. Add some of their house made orange blossom syrup *chefs kiss*Plus the place is chill inside, has a friendly staff, and has a spot where you can draw something on a sticky note and put it up. 10/10

Ended up at this cute little coffeeshop on happenstance, and I am glad I came! The staff is super friendly and gave recommendations on the creamiest nondairy milk for my latte (oat). All of their house syrups are made from scratch, so I tried the caramel. It was delicious! They are a tad bit pricey even compared to Starbucks, but they are definitely worth another visit!

I love the welcoming atmosphere of Roast Rider! It was my first time here and I always ask for the baristas recommendation! I ordered the Snow Day Latte which was the perfect balance of holiday flavors without the overwhelming sweetness.

I stopped by here before shopping at the Hilltop, and ordered their seasonal coffee (something along the lines of gingerbread). I got it with whole milk, and came out pretty fast. While I waited, they have sticky notes and pens for people to write down whatever and leave it. Now onto the coffee, it was pretty good but as someone who enjoys a bit of a stronger flavor, I preferred if there was more gingerbread to it. Other than that, it was actually perfect. The interior was very chill and seemed like a perfect place to get some work done or even meet up with some friends. Overall, highly recommend to stop by for a drink, especially before you start shopping at the Hilltop.

I recently visited Roast Rider to change up my work environment. The coffee shop was moderately busy, but I easily found a seat without waiting. I ordered a chai latte with oat milk. While it wasn't the best chai I've had, it was still good--just not the best in town.The shop is cozy and comfortable, with a decent number of seats inside and outside. However, seating near outlets was limited, which could be an issue if you need to charge your devices. Despite its smaller size, Roast Rider offers a nice selection of beverages and food. It's a great spot to work or catch up with a friend, and I'd definitely return.

Roast Rider is in the Laskin shopping area, easy to find and easy to park. Plenty of seating inside and a fun, unique style! The post-it notes with customers' messages add color and character. They have a fairly standard coffee menu but also offer several rotating specials. I tried a seasonal Cherries and Cream latte. It was to die for! Super smooth espresso, well-balanced flavors, not too sweet. Beautiful latte art as well! I paid $7.50 for my 12 oz drink and that included a 15% tip. A bit steep but that seems to be the going rate at coffee shops these days. Happily, the drink was truly excellent and I will definitely return.

A coffee shop that won't sell you coffee. I didn't get a chance to try their cortado because they stop selling espressos at 5pm. The shop's signs and website says it closes at 6pm. I told the young lady at the counter that I had drove 20 minutes out of my way to get here and that maybe not serving a coffee drink an hour before you close is something to put on your website. Her reply was, "Yeah I guess so." I not blaming the young lady. Management or owners should make it clear that a certain service is not provided after a certain time.

Very nice café with good space to sit and work or chat with friends. The coffee was very smooth And there's no need for adding cream or sugar if you like it black. The staff was super friendly and it seems to be a popular place for the local crowd. Enjoy!

Listen I drink coffee every single day. I've tried almost every shop in the Hampton roads area and C4 Columbia coffee and Roast Rider have to be that absolute worst. I understand it's a latte but put some more expresso . I'm drinking milk and syrup with no expresso. First the large isn't even that big to only taste like milk. I'm guessing y'all use 1 oz of expresso. Stop finessing people. Y'all are much better off going to. 17 hands, Badass coffee, high cup,American brew, black riffle. They actually know how to make a latte. Waste of my money fr spent 15 dollars just to have to go to another shop.
