Living in Amarillo for about a week, I learned a lot about the culture of the city and its two…read moremajor coffee chains. I always find it interesting how many medium sized cities have a localized coffee chain that is so deeply rooted in the community. In Round Rock, it is Lamppost. In Amarillo, it is Roasters. There are quite a few Roasters locations in Amarillo, but the true OG is located off Georgia Street. I got there around 8:30 in the morning and it was capital B busy. Every table except one was occupied and the drive thru was wrapping around the building. By the time I got inside, I only had a short wait before ordering. I ordered a simple vanilla latte with oat milk in a medium size, along with a pumpkin spice muffin. For how busy it was, I was expecting to wait a while, but they churned drinks out pretty quickly. The barista even signaled to me to come grab the drinks for my girlfriend and me because I did not believe they had been made that fast. The coffee itself was pretty good. It leans on the sweeter side and is more focused on flavor than being espresso forward. It is clear why this place is such a staple in Amarillo. I also really liked that they had coffee sleeves that looked like Christmas sweaters and flannels for the season. It was a cute touch. It is a cute space and feels pretty traditional. One random thing I noticed was the pictures of Ronald Reagan on the walls. I do not know the reason or if it is some sort of long running joke, but it exists, along with books about Reagan scattered around the shop. There is only one single use bathroom, so on a busy morning it can take a bit if you need to use it. Every day, Roasters offers a coffee of the day on drip. I went to another location later in the week and tried it there as well, and it was good too. I think Roasters is a great option for coffee in the area and proves why it has been a staple for Amarillo residents since the 1990s. Regardless of the Reaganomics for whatever reason, Roasters can trickle down some coffee. RIYL: coffee and pictures of Ronald Reagan

The consistency at this location hasn't changed. For a while they didn't have matcha, but now they do. It can get a bit busy depending on what day you come in.

While visiting Amarillo, I wanted to try a few local coffee shops while working remotely. Located…read morenear the Medi Park area was Strata Coffee Bar, a catch all spot that functions as a coffee shop, bar, and brunch location. When I walked in, the place was absolutely packed with TTUHSC or TTU Vet Med students who were celebrating finishing their final classes for the year. It was quite busy with a large line in front of me, and since I was staying for a while, I was not in a rush. I ordered a lavender latte, and after waiting just over 15 minutes behind the gaggle of people who ordered before me, my hot beverage was ready. I really liked the cup they served it in. It had a cute mountain gradient with their logo on top. The coffee itself was pretty good. It was not anything groundbreaking, but I enjoyed it for what it was. Having to briefly hop on a call with my boss, I went out to their small outdoor patio and took the call. It was also a pretty decent spot for getting some work done. They serve a ton of different options, and it is probably a popular stop for people in the surrounding medical district to get a quick coffee boost. There were also plenty of people drinking beers and mimosas when I came in, celebrating their semester coming to a close at 9:30 in the morning, so good for them. You love a catch all spot.

My favorite order is the "F*ck Me Up" coffee because they ask you what you don't like in a drink, then they do their magic in making a non-menu mix of flavors that makes an instant smile. Highly recommend this location. Love the local art for sale as well. Stop in for an experience.

Kind of a dark divy linda vibe but I liked it :) It was early so only a couple of other customers came thru when we were there. But the service and coffee were just ok. Not bad but not great. Plenty of street parking, lots of inside seating and a small sidewalk patio. Looks like they have some live music. I must say the food looked good and I will try a differnt drink next time.

We have a ten hour drive today on our road trip and it has definitely started the day off right. The options here are huge for a portable coffee stop.

I had the Fixx 1, a two-egg combo, but someone else had ordered something similar and I got their order instead. She apologized and asked what she could do to make up for it, and they ended up comping my wife's omelet, which I appreciated. Prices were not bad at all, food was good, and the ambiance was friendly, if a bit dark. I think it would serve them better to rebrand as a diner and embrace that good breakfast menu, that way someone ordering a vanilla latte won't be surprised when it comes in a styrofoam cup.
