Crema's Take

Local Roots Coffee Shop is a converted house in Winston-Salem that feels like visiting a friend's cozy home, with multiple intimate rooms perfect for lingering over espresso drinks or settling in with your laptop. Their baristas craft thoughtfully balanced specialty drinks—think strawberry matcha lattes and creative flavor combinations with syrups like SF cinnamon and chocolate—at prices that feel refreshingly fair for the quality you're getting. It's the kind of place where regulars and newcomers alike keep coming back, drawn equally to the excellent coffee and the genuinely inviting, unhurried atmosphere.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Parking available.

Such a cozy coffee shop! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for relaxing or getting some work done. The strawberry Matcha was rich and flavorful as was the Vanilla Bean Frappe. Service was friendly and quick, which made the whole experience even better.

I had a peppermint mocha with coconut milk. It was a good cup of coffee. This quaint coffee shop is a converted house, so it has nice conversation spots. The obvious popularity of Local Roots Coffee does cause a bit of a wait and parking can be a challenge. The exterior is also…
