Columbia Street Roastery
24 E Columbia Ave, Urbana, IL
Crema's Take
“This Urbana roastery has earned serious devotion from its community, and for good reason: they source exceptional single origins at prices that feel almost too fair, paired with the kind of knowledgeable, genuinely warm staff who actually enjoy helping you find your next favorite bean. Whether you're grabbing a quick espresso, diving into a pour over, or loading up on whole beans and brewing equipment to take home, the experience feels personal and unpretentious—the type of place where the owners John and Toni remember your name and what you're working toward in your coffee journey.”

Great single origin coffees at a great price. The store also has all kinds of great coffee brewing products and the staff is knowledgeable and friendly. A great stop for fellow (coffee)pot heads. Also, have a good tea selection
Good coffee for the price. Their online ordering system is fast and convinient. Minimal interaction required to get your order.
I just love Columbia Street Roastery and I feel fortunate that we have this gem in our town. I typically buy ground flavored coffee but recently purchased an espresso machine. John and Toni have both been so helpful (and patient - my husband and I have lots of questions) on this journey to figure out what beans would be best for our taste preferences. We started with the Espresso 411 blend and then got Black Velvet as our second bag - both are absolutely delicious. Thank you both for your help the last couple of weeks! I highly recommend this Roastery for anyone looking for fresh, quality coffee.
I went here to get some coffee grounds as a gift and the workers were extremely kind and helpful in the choosing process! The coffee is great quality and tastes amazing, highly recommend!
Their beans are just splendid. You can order them online or even pickup. They got a great selection of flavors!
