New Roots Coffeehouse
1273 Long Pond Rd, Rochester, NY
Crema's Take
“New Roots is a charming neighborhood gathering spot in Rochester that's built itself a loyal following as the kind of place where you can actually linger without pressure—perfect for meeting a friend you haven't seen in years or settling in with your laptop for a few hours. While their coffee comes from Fingerlakes Coffee Roasters and opinions vary on the beans, the real draw is the inviting atmosphere and their solid food offerings like paninis that keep people coming back, especially when they're open on holidays when most places aren't. It's the sort of unpretentious coffeehouse that rewards repeat visits, even if you weren't sure about it the first time around.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu.

Snuck back home for a long weekend and returned to a coffee shop that I haven't been to in ages. I don't remember it being a favorite, so I was skeptical. I was pleasantly surprised because our experience was fantastic. The batista was friendly....quiet....but friendly. They…
