Crema's Take
“Guide Roasting Company roasts all their coffee in-house, and reviewers consistently rave about the quality difference—this isn't just a café buying beans elsewhere, it's a real roastery where you can taste their direct control over the process. The staff actually knows their stuff and will spend time with you explaining the different roasts and offering samples, which makes a real difference when you're trying to figure out what you actually like. With a perfect 5-star rating across over 100 reviews and regulars who keep coming back, this is legitimately one of the best coffee operations in the Richmond area.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, with a pour-over program. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

Found this place last week when I was on the hunt for quality coffee. Have not stopped going back since! The coffee is amazing. And the Midlo roast is the kind they use in Gelate Celesti ice cream, my absolute fav! 10/10 recommend.
