CityRoots Coffee Bar
1509 Government St, Baton Rouge, LA
Crema's Take
“This Baton Rouge roastery has mastered the art of making you never want to leave—from their exceptional in-house roasted espresso drinks that convert skeptics (one reviewer's wife demanded her own mocha) to their surprisingly excellent matcha lattes that finally won over matcha lovers. The vibe is equally special: a genuinely welcoming atmosphere with low-key ambiance perfect for lingering over a laptop or meeting friends, staffed by smiling baristas who actually seem to care about your experience. It's the kind of place people return to even after moving away, craving both the carefully crafted drinks and that rare feeling of having discovered something truly special.”

Great coffee! The service was good, but coffee was better!! Got a mocha and it was so good, it changed my wife's mind and she wanted her own. This is the only place I have tasted a Macha that I liked. Will definitely be hitting this place when in the area!
I almost did not want to leave a review because I want this place to be my little secret lol. I love the ambiance and my fiance got pizza for breakfast. They roast beans in house and their match latte is superb. Highly recommend
Hats off to the creator of this wonderful coffee spot. The menu is fantastic. We moved out of state and now this is the only spot I come when back in town or when I tell others that visit the area. The matcha latte and quiche are highly recommended.
I was on the road so I looked for a new place or something local, I ended up here at City Roots and I dig the vibes. Seems great for remote work, quiet music, low noise when the roaster isn’t on. I was greeted promptly and I ordered the Espresso Cielo. Drink was hand crafted and really tasty. There’s inside and outside seating. Inside holds about 30 people. Free WiFi , food, and craft beer round out the menu. The only gripe was not finding it. From the road there is a lot for the electric depot. The facade of the building just looks like an office. You have to walk around the back.
If I could give 100 stars I would ! I’m literally sitting in the shop writing this because it couldn’t wait. I was great and COMPLIMENTED!!! All of the beautiful people behind the bar had smiles and were ready to help. Egg bites were amazing and this is the best iced latte I’ve had in quite some time.
