Crema's Take

“This Traverse City roaster has earned fierce loyalty with consistently exceptional coffee and a team that clearly cares deeply about their craft, as evidenced by regulars who blend their own espresso blends at home using offerings like Big Rig and High Road. The Truck Stop mild roast has become a standout favorite that converts even the most discerning coffee drinkers, and whether you're ordering a traditional espresso or exploring their specialty drinks, you're getting beans that are impeccably ground and roasted with real attention to detail. It's the kind of place where you feel the personal investment of Roaster Jack and the team in every cup, making it worth seeking out whether you're a local or just passing through.”

We are so happy we discovered this coffee while visiting relatives in the Traverse City area! Top 3 reasons: 1. This coffee is delicious. Perfectly ground and roasted. 2. The customer service is amazing! 3. Their mail order shopping is efficient, shipping is affordably priced, and the selection is wonderful.

Well, first the good... a family member who was visiting had the Truck Stop mild roast and LOVED it. And they know their coffee. Now for the bad. We drove all the way to the Roasterjack Coffee Co building on Friday when they were supposed to be open for coffee tasting and they were CLOSED even though there were cars in the parking lot. I thought my family member was going to cry! We ended up tracking more down at Oryana for them to take back, but they shouldn't say they are open for coffee tasting and not be. This could have been 5 stars. :-(
