A pioneer of the city’s coffee culture with decades of sourcing relationships and a roomy cafe near the university. Still locally owned and roasting daily, it’s a classic that continues to matter.
Salt Lake Roasting company is a gem. You’ve nailed it. All you lucky people in SLC have it good.
Passing through here on our way to west coast and found this great place in the am after a search for coffee open early.
Tom at the counter was friendly and made on of the best lattes I’ve ever had. He’s the lead roaster here and has been roasting for over 20 years on their vintage 1920s roaster.
The store is vibrant and laid out so well. The decor and many items for sale that are coffee related were fun to browse through.
Fresh baked muffins, rolls and croissant sandwiches smelled and looked great.
Bathrooms are immaculate and clean.
Nice little parking lot in back , which can get full so parking off of 800 East street is recommended unless coming early or later in the day.
All is ADA compliant and I had no problems accessing or using space in the store

My favorite coffee spot in downtown SLC! There’s a young guy who works here, and his customer service is always outstanding. The owner is also super friendly and takes the time to chat with customers. The vibe and drinks here are amazing!

Excellent coffee - we had a quad shot iced latte and a cold brew with a shot of vanilla and *coffee ice cubes* instead of regular ice. Smooth coffee that you can tell is fresh roasted. We also got spicy chicken empanadas and they were excellent and a perfectly sized bite.
The overall feel of the location is cozy, worldly, and relaxed. I loved meeting the owner's adorable dog. Absolutely will return.

Great coffee vibe ☕😋 music, social scene, love the energy and atmosphere here! They know their coffee and can do pour overs and recommend based on your preferences. Baked goods look amazing but didn't try. Next time!

Good coffee with 1 big caution:
This coffee shop is a prime and frequent gathering place for groups of 3-4 men who are bible thumpers. They are easy to distinguish:
1. Multiple bibles sitting on their table.
2. Their loudly and relentlessly proselytizing to each other and anyone else they can lure into conversation. We have been to this coffee shop many times and never seen or heard the couple who own this coffee shop take any action to stop this.
If you like lots of loud Christian chatter at adjacent tables, Salt Lake Roasting Company is the place for you.

Maybe not the best latte in town, but the vibe here is really fun and they have a lot of non coffee options if that’s your style (I also got a rose Italian soda which was very yummy). I love the aesthetic of the shop! Such a fun place to be and it attracts an eclectic crowd which makes body doubling for working very fun. Lots of outdoor seating perfect for the summer time and when the indoors gets too cramped.

When I’m around this area, I like stopping by to grab a cold brew, a great variety of single-origin coffees, quick service, and great pastries. It's such a cool place to hang out and do some work, as they have plenty of seating. On the 2nd floor, you get a view of the place.
