Asheville Coffee Roasters

Cozy little space. We went on a slow morning when there was a lot of spacing. I had the Asiago bagel and cream cheese, it was amazing to say the least. The coffee was great. I would recommend to anyone who wants to have a cup of coffee and chill. Probably not great for doing work or answering emails as there are few tables.

Went here two days ago and had a nice coffee and a chai. Returned this morning. Actually waited for them to open, and when we walked in were surprised that the staff/​owners were smoking inside… It was really bad. I suffer from allergies, so that was a pretty bad start to the day. We left and went to Edna’s.

I’ll be short with my review like I was short with my visit. I will also preface my review by saying, «My name is Michael, and I am not a coffee drinker.»
So why would a non-​coffee drinker stop at the coffee shop? Well my wife is a coffee drinker and she wanted a nice cup of coffee. I just really needed to use the bathroom. When we went in the big sign on the door that said bathroom for customers only ans since my wife was going to buy coffee and I thought well I’ll buy hot chocolate and use the bathroom. Unfortunately the bathroom was out of order. I ordered my three dollar hot chocolate and danced around the seating area that on a good day could seat five people. My hot chocolate cup was only about halfway full of liquid which was a real shame since it was really tasty. My wife said her coffee was good too and that my rating was more of a reflection of my bad mood since I really needed to pee.

Wow, amazing coffee. Ordered a macchiato. First good sign is that they knew the difference between an Italian macchiato and the Starbucks version. Hand tamped. Not a hint of bitter or sour. And the fresh roast — wow.

Great little local joint in North Asheville… the couple that owns it also goes to and sells at the North Asheville tailgate market. Good coffee. A few baked goods. Lounge-​y atmosphere in an old strip. Will do credit above $ 5.

Great little coffee shop. Very friendly owners and they clearly know how to make an awesome latte.

«Get Roasted» beckons the sign out front for this establishment, and this is without a doubt the best java option along the stretch of Weaverville Highway that Asheville Coffee Roasters calls home. However, even though the coffee is more than decent, the list of positive attributes of this coffee establishment largely stops there. The space within the shop itself is small and somewhat cramped, and as others have mentioned they have very limited hours.
Nonetheless, this is a more than viable option when you need a cup of joe to go. Furthermore, the staff and owners here are seemingly very friendly (they happily served me when I walked through their open doors at 4:32pm, unaware that they closed at 4:30).
Bottom line: If you find yourself dragging and need a caffeinated pick me up, you would do well stopping by Asheville Coffee Roasters. Just be sure to get there before they close!

Good for a fast cup of joe, but not for hanging around. There is only a couple of places to sit, and with the space being open to roasters, it’s a bit smokey. Otherwise, the staff was friendly and they have ample parking.

Great coffee place. Highly recommended!

Andy and Greg are the best! Not only do they know coffee (Andy is a real pro, learned everything from her Italian Grandma) their coffee is the BEST. Even when I had to leave Asheville and go to LA for a 2 year project, they sent me coffee. When you go in for coffee, you leave feeling like you have two new friends! I can’t say enough about this wonderful place!

One of Asheville’s best coffee locations. The owners are extremely helpful and knowledgeable. The atmosphere is friendly & inviting. If you like high quality, fresh-​roasted, full-​flavored, this is your place.

My husband and I love good coffee! If you do too, I highly recommend this place! If you enjoy tasting your coffee, you know, a little syrup in your coffee as opposed to a little coffee in your syrup then go here. Otherwise, stay at starsux… We both got a triple vanilla latte and also a pound of their whole beans to bring home. Wonderful! I’m so surprised there was only one rating for this place on here, but not surprised it was for 5 stars! We will definitely be back the next time we are in town.
Watch out for their hours though, they close earlier than most and I believe are closed on weekends. The couple that own it are super friendly and have been doing this for well over 20 years! Totally worth visiting during business hours! Enjoy!

Asheville Coffee Roasters!
Wow. I take my coffee very seriously. For my espresso machine at home… I used to buy Whole Bean Italian Roast (Peet’s Coffee) at the Fresh Market. However, Fresh Market now only carries Ground and not Whole Bean. I knew I had to find another supplier.
I had never been to ACR at their old location on Patton avenue, but I noticed that they moved down Merrimon towards Weaverville. They are coffee experts, and friendly. The owners have relationships with some brokers around the globe… they roast fresh beans EVERY DAY.
Originally I had planned on moving towards roasting my own beans — just to be as fresh as possible. Now that I have discovered ACR, there is no need!
Come here to buy beans or espresso drinks! You get a free small latte if you buy a pound of beans.
PROS: Simply, hands down the best coffee you can get in Asheville. Buy a latte. You will be amazed.
CONS: They close early… way early. Like 4:30pm! They are closed on the weekends too. This place is not run like an espresso bar.
