Coffee Lab

So, during lockdown 2020, I remember that the places I missed the most were NOT the places I went to all the time (which, at that time, was Starbucks - and the Starbucks drive thru was still open because they counted as ""essential workers""; those poor baristas, man), but rather the places I went to once in a blue moon (like small local coffee shops). So, when lockdown ended, I was like "I don't have to miss them anymore" and made it my mission to spend more time at small local coffee shops (and my other "once in a blue moon" places) and slowly but surely I stopped going to Starbucks all together. But there was one thing - ONE THING - that no small local coffee shop I went to could get just right..... until NOW. Can you take a wild guess from looking at the menu? Answer: the pumpkin spice latte. Yes, no other small local coffee shop I have tried has gotten this drink just right... until the Coffee Labs came around. They nailed it and I will continue to come here now for all my pumpkin spice needs. Beyond the pumpkin spice latte, this place is just genuinely wonderful. The atmosphere is warm and cozy and the baristas are so kind. The owner always wants to know what I think every single time I try something new (or even, try something old in a different format - like when I get the pumpkin spice cold instead of warm) and every single time so far I've been blown away and I tell him so. My mom said it was the best cappuccino she has ever had in her life (she is 64 and has had MANY cappuccinos in her life) and that made the owner's entire week I think. Everything I've tried from the menu has been amazing, the atmosphere is cozy and homey, and the people who work there are the kindest people ever. I can't wait to see them blossom. I truly hope this place sticks around. Based on the amount of customers coming in on a daily basis, things are looking good.

I Ordered Salted Caramel Crunch which was amazing, but the most important thing was not the drink it was the vibe and the experience, actually the place has a very good vibe and great experience with the stuff which was the owners i met it was perfect to interact with them, they are so nice and funny. Thanks for the experience.

Beautiful coffee shop with excellent coffee, I highly recommend coffee lab if you enjoy a nice relaxing ambiance and good coffee. Still working my way through all the drinks, but the essentials including espresso, cortado, and cappuccino are on point. High quality fresh Red Rooster beans and skilled baristas make the best Cortado I've enjoyed in Blacksburg. Pay them a visit, you won't be disappointed! They're also open late night Friday and Saturday, great spot to relax late night after a long week.

Such a comfortable spot! calm, cozy, and full of warmth. The coffee is great, and the baristas are some of the kindest people around. You can tell they care about both the drinks and the people who come in. It’s the kind of place that makes you slow down for a bit, whether you’re catching up with a friend or just taking a break from the day.

Cozy, welcoming, and consistently good. The space feels warm and relaxed without being noisy. Coffee is excellent! smooth, balanced, and clearly made with care. The staff are genuinely kind and helpful. A comfortable spot to read, catch up, or just unwind. Highly recommend.
