Passenger Roastery & Coffee Bar

What experience in this place! Great coffee, delicious pastries (morning bun is a must!) Really good service!

This is a great little coffee shop. The coffee is great the service was excellent and very informative and knowledgeable about their coffee and coffee in general. The baked good are so good, and complement the coffee so much. The have vegan baked goods as well and are to die for some of the best I've ever had. The atmosphere is chilled, laid back, subtle, and quaint.its a must for me to stop in whenever I'm in the area, so If your in the area stop in and have a great cup of coffee.

Coffee is a amazing! Really! Now I understand why this place is 5 star! It’s really good. I highly recommend a cup of cappuccino with a peach ginger tart, these two made my early Sunday morning. Thank you!

The location is perfect for me. It’s cozy and quiet. The latte is always delicious, and the desserts are great too.

Walked over with a friend today and the staff was very friendly upon arrival, they answered all of our questions about the menu. We had their iced matcha with oat milk and a iced latte with milk. We also grabbed their biscuit with strawberry jam and butter. Everything was refreshing and had a great taste! I would definitely recommend.

Unassuming, yet elegant coffee shop where coffee and tea are prepared and presented with utmost care. We’ve not ever tasted such good matcha…Jay and Stewart prepared the drinks in the traditional Chinese way…not a very common skill. The mocha was also exceptionally good…made with slightly bitter dark 70% chocolate syrup to produce a drink to remember and come back for. The freshly baked pastry complemented the drinks perfectly.

One of my top 3 coffee spots in the world! So glad to see this beautiful new location in person. Thanks again to Carl for being so rad. Tip, grab a cappuccino in one of the gorgeous handmade ceramics 😉

Hands down the best, really handcrafted coffee I've had in a VERY long time. The guy running the show recommended trying the house chai, and I was blown away. I didn't know chai could be that good. Also had a cappuccino, and I was just as impressed. The owner(?) was super friendly, helpful, and kind with everything. It's a bit off the beaten track if you're driving, but I recommend finding this place and stopping in!

First time back in Lancaster and this coffee shop opened another location. This coffeeshop roaster consistently delivers an exceptional coffee experience. Their attention to detail in roasting brings out rich flavors, and the aroma is inviting. The baristas' skill ensures a consistently great cup, making it a reliable choice for coffee enthusiasts seeking quality and flavor consistency. The barista is knowledgeable and they pay attention to every detail. A nice cozy location to grab a quick cup of coffee.

The low ambiance here is very enjoyable. Especially for those that enjoy having a slow morning. Great music selection. The coffee and tea are high quality. I got to enjoy the Bright Star Chamomile tea. Although I was visiting during a gloomy day, being present at Passenger brightened up my day. I also love that the barista was friendly and easy to have a conversation with. Always looking forward to coming back here when in town!

Great place to watch the coffee roasting/bagging process while drinking some excellent coffee. The coffee shop portion of Passenger Roastery and Coffee Shop is very sleek, clean and small. We were in there on a day when three people were sitting in the shop and that filled it. Thankfully they have outdoor seating and the weather was mild. I ordered a latte with oat milk. There was an upcharge for oat milk. I asked for an additional shot of espresso. The barista informed me that Passenger already does more coffee in their latte than most shops. I decided the extra shot was not necessary. The latte was smooth and warm. It had a perfect balance of coffee to milk. I love that there was some latte art on top (a heart shape). Passenger offered a number of baked goods including some vegan items. I did not try any.

Walking around I saw this spot show up on the map, so decided to give it a try. The shop is beautiful, very clean and modern design. The back is a prep and packaging facility. The people working were packaging and didn't notice me immediately, so there was a minor wait. I ordered a latte and asked for skim. There was only whole or oat, so I asked for oat. There was a $1 upcharge for oat, a 25% increase in the price of a latte, which is very steep. There isn't a note about the extra cost on the menu and the cashier didn't let me know in advance, so I took a star off for that. As for the latte itself, it's beautifully made and the coffee base is delicious. Well roasted to give a good balance of caffeine and mellow flavor.

What I loved most about my visit here was the engaging conversation I had with the barista about Passenger's approach to preserving green coffee. He was so friendly and knowledgeable about coffee! The actual coffee was great and it was a fun location too. Looking forward to visiting again.

Decent coffee, just wish they wouldn't burn it sometimes. It's also pricy for something that has no extras.

Loved getting geeked out about coffee at Passenger today. Simply asked what was available in the pot, and got schooled on the Burundi offering that was a half- washed processed coffee with black tea, molasses, and red cherry fruit tasting notes. Parked my Burundi outside, gnawed down a biscuit, and watched the world go by for a few minutes. Ave had their coffee in other shops, but have never been to the mother ship. These guys apparently love their coffee, and I win because if it. Kudos.

Great coffee and pastries. Has vegan options too such as vegan chocolate chip cookie and vegan granola bar. Barista was very knowledgeable about the coffee, we ended up purchasing coffee for the house too.

When looking for places to go in Lancaster, Passenger came up as a top coffee shop, even with accolades from Food & Wine. Stopped here after a quick run before our friend's wedding, and it did not disappoint! There was only one barista working and a small family in front of us with a large-ish order, so service was a tad slow. However, we didn't really mind waiting and escaping the warm weather (it was mid-July). Passenger has a pretty small menu, which made our decisions easier. We opted for cold brews, mine with oat milk and my husband's sans additions, which were tasty! Would love to make it back and try some more unique lattes, etc in the future. Passenger also had a variety of baked goods displayed, so we each got a biscuit - mine a classic biscuit paired with a mango jam and my husband with the savory biscuit with butter. Very light and fluffy, and I loved the pairing of the jam with mine! Passenger was a great pit stop on our trip to Lancaster, and we loved the modern and simplistic vibe. While the service could have been slightly more efficient (the barista definitely was taking his time, although he was solo on a Saturday AM), we enjoyed our brews and our pastries. Would highly recommend Passenger to anyone looking for a good coffee shop in the area!

People who know me know I love coffee. When traveling I always seek out local coffee roasters. I did a cross country trip in which I visited roasters in 19 states. I always order a cappuccino in a ceramic mug because it's a staple and it's easy to get wrong. After my trip I stopped into Passenger and discovered the best cappuccino is right here in Lancaster. The baristas are pleasant, Knowledgeable and friendly. The coffee is exceptional, the teas are very good and the pastries are top notch. This is the place to get coffee in Lancaster. Don't miss it.

Great coffee! Excellent knowledge!! Wonderful vibe! Can't wait to come back. Wish there was one in NY!

Lady behind counter was nice even when we were ordering 10 minutes before closing. That says a lot!
