Things to Know

Black Rock Coffee Bar is a specialty coffee shop with respectful baristas known for its Sugar Free Caramel Blondie with Cold Foam, recently opened with a popular but slow drive-thru.

How this is written: we run the full set of recent Google reviews through AI to pull out what guests consistently say — including the complaints, which is why there's a downsides list rather than only the good bits. It's rewritten as new reviews come in, so it describes the hotel as it is now, not as it was whenever someone last got round to writing a paragraph about it.

Out of nowhere a nice spot to visit. Many use the drive through. It’s very loud inside with loud music. If you have a meeting online, bring your noise cancelling headphones.

Solid coffee shop on the block. The only problem is the drive thru has taken 30 minutes the last three times i’ve been here. I’m sitting here now while i type this out. I understand it’s a new store so they are working everything out. Either way I will not be back if i see any type of line because i know it will take far too long.

30 mins wait in line for coffee ridiculous and wasn’t even very crowded. The drive through line designed to keep you there. That’s a long wait time for coffee
