Blanchard’s Coffee Morris Street

Blanchard's is about the vibe. Inside a retro-looking building, it photographs beautifully. Their coffee menu is simple, but good. I enjoyed the hazelnut latte and my wife liked their chai latte. They often have seasonal drinks on the menu.

The coffee was great! I enjoyed the miso brown sugar latte with oat milk. There were a lot of people, but the line moved pretty quick and I got my coffee relatively quick. The place has fun vibes too! There is indoor and outdoor seating. They don’t take cash. A cool place to go to :)

I ordered the Coconut Ube Latte, which was visually appealing with its vibrant purple hue and evoked a delightful summer vibe. The subtle taste of ube added a unique and enjoyable flavor to the latte, while the coconut milk contributed a light and refreshing quality. I only wish the establishment were open throughout the day to enjoy this beverage at any time.

Delicious coffee (which I’ve come to expect with all Blanchard’s locations), yummy treats (vegan options), and friendly, knowledgeable staff. The oat milk lattes and pour overs are consistently fantastic. Another bonus is a great outdoor seating area that is adjacent to a cozy park. I highly recommend visiting. I’ve also read this store serves as a test location for new Blanchard’s coffees and other concepts. I will definitely be back!

Delicious and unique lavender vanilla and mint mocha seasonal lattes!

Another former auto shop conversion. Great atmosphere, lots of sunshine coming in through the large windows. The aesthetic makes me think of Danish modern industrial. Cozy and inviting. The staff are nice enough. The coffee is excellent and the muffin delicious. Lots of locals hanging out and chatting, also quite a few take out orders. It was busy, but not overwhelming. There is a large community table in the main area, and a few smaller tables toward the back of the shop. The community table design makes me thing of a Kindergarten lunch/art table. An odd choice for a coffee shop, but somehow it works. Food offerings are limited to muffins, coffee cakes and cookies. No hot breakfast served here.

please keep any type of hojicha on the menu it is the best drink I have had……. went one day at 9 am and they already sold out of the brown sugar black sesame hojicha to put it lightly I was suicidal after

Great little coffee shop! Close to VCU Campus. They have an outdoor patio as well. Good selection of coffee and you can even buy bags for home!

New fav Richmond coffee shop!! This is the cutest, cozy, light-filled Blanchard's location. I love the cafeteria-style community table and variety of outdoor seating too. The garage door windows are such a vibe. I got an oat milk latte and not only were the cups so cute but it was delicious!! Not a ton of seating options or plugs for working but a great spot to meet up with a friend for coffee.

I got a flavored latte (hot). I honestly don't even remember the flavor combo even though I was there a month ago, but I remember liking it. I got my coffee to go and walked around the neighborhood, enjoying the cute houses nearby and seeing part of the campus. If I were a college student, I'd be there all the time. I don't live in Richmond but I liked it enough that I'd go back next time I'm in town or recommend to a friend if they are visiting Richmond.

The bathroom and ambiance was very cozy. The coffee was just okay in my opinion and not very many options for food. I suggest this place if you want to get some work done or read a book versus bringing a coffee to go to enjoy!

I prefer this Blanchard's location over the W Broad location! The vibe and aesthetic of this is super welcoming and cozy. The outdoor has plenty of seating, probably about 5 picnic tables. I tried the chai tea latte and it was SO GOOD.

I witnessed some really nasty, unhygienic behavior by the staff and their friend. I watched a barista have a conversation with a friend, and the friend was putting their hands all over the espresso machine and coffee cups while picking their nose putting their fingers in her mouth. I also saw their hair touch multiple parts of the machine and the coffee cups. The barista then used one of those cups to make someone a drink. I made a complaint to the other barista working and she looked at me like I was crazy. I never saw them address it and they kept using those same cups that had her saliva, boogers, and hair all over them. Always get your coffee to go!!!

I've tried the Forest Hill location and driven by the Scott's Addition location tons for times, but this location is off in the cut and I had noooo idea it even existed. This location is a coffee store, versus a cafe. From the front it looks like a garage, and you enter around the back (side?). It's super cute and kinda has an adult cafeteria vibe going on. It's been well over a decade since I had the pleasure of sitting at a lunch table -- the nostalgia =D According to their website, this location is their testing grounds for new offerings. The menu is really simple and easy to navigate and the service is friendly + fast. They also had a menu of seasonal options, which I ordered from. There's a refrigerator inside with bottled drinks and bags of coffee beans available for sale. For my first drink, I got the winter au lait which had vanilla, ginger and cardamom. IT CAME IN A REAL MUG AND NOT A PAPER CUP. For my second drink, I got an iced peppermint mocha. Both were good and they remembered my name when I came up the second time. Also got an Americano to-go for my partner. Such cute to-go cups! There's indoor and outdoor seating, and a teeny-tiny, (damn near microscopic!) park close by. Also- Did I mention that even the bathroom is cute af? Go here!

The coffee was absolutely delicious! I got an oat milk latte, and the it milk they used was much better than what most other coffee shops use. The interior is also adorable. My favorite of the locations!

Excellent coffee and excellent service. Ashley is the best barista I've ever had. She was unbelievably kind and deserved a raise!!!

Both the interior and outside were very cute! I didn't have to wait long for my drinks at all and the barista was nice. I find that it isn't as crowded as the Broad Street location (at least for now).

Good local roaster and coffee. Their midnight oil was very good/smooth. I enjoyed the reuse of the old gas station building and can imagine on a warm day the patio space being lively. The crowd was a wonderfully eclectic mix of VCU kids and others. I bought a bag of beans and that speaks volumes. Enjoy.

Would give a 4.5 stars if I could. Great drinks and a few selections of snacks (cookies, muffins, scones, etc.). Just be wary that they do not take cash.
