Square One Coffee Roasters
145 N Duke St, Lancaster, PA
Crema's Take
“Square One cuts through the noise with a tight, intentional menu of espresso drinks made without unnecessary sweetness or gimmicks—just classic technique and quality beans. The shop has cultivated a devoted local following in downtown Lancaster by actually listening to what specialty coffee drinkers want: honest pour-overs, clean cold brew, and their own thoughtful creations that don't rely on artificial flavoring to taste good. If you appreciate coffee that respects the bean rather than drowning it in sugar, this is worth seeking out.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, with a pour-over program, good cold brew. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings.
