Swatara Coffee Co. is an absolute gem. After driving by countless times, I finally stopped in--and now it's my favorite coffee shop in the Palmyra, Lebanon, and Hershey area. The lavender iced latte is my go-to, and their breakfast sandwiches are top-tier (love the chopped bacon in every bite). Muffins? Always fresh and flavorful--especially the French toast one, which surprised me in the best way. The atmosphere is warm and cozy, with great outdoor seating and friendly, welcoming staff. Even when I move farther out, I'll be coming back. Swatara Coffee Co. is 100% worth the stop. read more

Three of us went for lunch here on a Saturday. There's both indoor and outdoor seating. We chose indoors since it was a bit cool. When we arrived the place was full and everyone seemed very happy and upbeat. The menu is on the wall at the service kiosk where you place your order. When it's ready they call your name. There's a nice coffee bar which is self serve. The coffee was hot, fresh and delicious. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We had the club sandwich crepe, which was served piping hot. It was delicious, packed with ham, turkey, melted cheese and fresh spinach with a mayo aioli on top. This cafe is definitely a winner. read more

Food was better than great. I have never had a crepe before but I definitely liked it and will try this place again. The coffee was strong just how I like it and hot too. The overall atmosphere of the place was warm and inviting as well. read more

Friendly staff The Americano was great and strong And the strawberry and banana smoothie was really good as well Nice out door seating read more

Ever since it has changed from Swatara coffee to Ancestor the business has increasingly worsened. Not only do they have a limited selection of breakfast items now, but the crêpes here are definitely the worst out of any Ancestor location. The workers seem to not know what they're doing as well, the employees from when the buisness was Swatara were always extremely kind and knowledgeable. Not coming back. read more

I ordered through the Odeko app which worked very well. We had two bacon, egg, and cheese sandwiches which come on toasted break and we're good for a classic sammy , but average. To drink we got a strawberry banana smoothie and a maple latte both were delicious. I love the outdoor seating options and that they have local good available to purchase. read more

One of the great things about Yelp and Yelp events is the chance to go and try new places. Annville is a little far for us but we made it an adventure and got to try some great coffee and breakfast sandwiches too! They have a contest going on between the barista's to see which flavored latte they created gets the most orders. Many of them sounded good. But I had to get the lucky leprechaun. It was great. I also got a steak and egg breakfast sandwich and it too was great. The workers were very nice. And I loved that it is veteran owned (even better a Navy vet) they give a military discount and they had some great looking Accessories/clothing you can get to represent. If I am in the area I would definitely stop by again. read more

My favorite coffee shop to visit! And too dangerously close to me ha! Swatara is without my favorite local coffee shop to visit during the week or the weekends. Their Americano is my favorite but I also love their seasonal lattes. They have so many great options to choose from and I love when they run a contest in March where their baristas come up with "the best latte" that will later land on the menu. For the fall, I recently enjoyed their pumpkin spice latte and a breakfast sandwich. A delicious bacon, egg, and cheese on an asiago bagel. If you're in the area or passing through, stop here for a coffee! read more

03/2021 The Swatara Coffee Company is a sweet spot in downtown Annville serving up a great latte (& food) with friendly service. We stopped in as part of a Yelp event. I enjoyed the Butter Cookie Latte & a sausage breakfast sandwich. I thought the latte was delicious with just the right amount of sweetness. I like that the sandwich was made with toast. The baristas were very personable & knowledgeable about this Veteran-owned company. Great to hear that they strive to incorporate many locally-sourced products. They have an impressive selection of gift items as well as gift boxes. I would visit @Swatara Coffee Company. read more

Visited SCC's Annville location for the first time today. Here's my specific review and then a general review. Today was a bit overcast and unseasonably cold, so I got a hot chocolate. While I'm not a fan of espresso, the "spiced bourbon caramel latte" sounded good, so I asked that flavor combo in my hot chocolate. HOT TIP: you should do this, too. The flavor reminds me of a chocolate pecan pie crossed with a cinnamon bun. 10/10 recommend. I also got a pretty purple passion fruit macaron that had a lovely, light texture and a subtle, sweet filling. HOT TIP: let your macaron come to room temp before eating... if you have more self-control than I do. Generally, SCC has three greats: great location, great menu, and great staff. Location is nice, convenient and walkable in the heart of Annville. Outside, there's plentiful sidewalk seating. Inside, the shop manages to feel cozy yet spacious--I think this is due to storefront's picture windows and all the natural light. The shop also has tables, armchairs, and bar seat, plus PLENTY of outlets to plug in and work--a real plus. The menu is plentiful, too. Food options include breakfast sandwiches, bagels, salads, lunch sandwiches, and baked goods like bars, macarons, and cupcakes. The drink menu goes from plain black coffee, bottled teas, and carbonated drinks, to more elaborate blended and flavored drinks. There are lots of syrups, too, for mixing and watching large flavors if you've got an idea that's not on the suggested drink menu. Lastly, the staff were great. Monica had my drink made quickly and it tasted great. The other workers were very friendly, too. They also were following COVID-protocols, which just show that they care a lot about their community and it's safety! read more

come here to do homework, meet up with a friend you haven't seen in ages or just come in for a little treat before or after a long day :)

Finally a good coffee shop in Annville! This LVC parent appreciates having the option. Following good covid protocol and has ample covered main street outdoor seating. Prices are fair, we had a ham, egg and cheese and iced coffees. Food was brought to our table promptly, and was hot, fresh& tasty. We'll be back! read more

Enjoyed my Turkey, Ham, and bacon sandwich with my Oolong iced tea. Great place to pull into on a hot day and do a little work. Nice vibe and service read more

Waited 30+ minutes for 2 coffees. I recommend ordering ahead! Baristas we're polite. Nice outside area to sit and relax.

Ordered two drinks: steamer & frappe. Received the steamer in several minutes after previous orders were filled. But evidently, frappes are made by a different person & she also takes the orders at the register. While we waited for the frappe, she stood & chatted with her mother and a friend and even came out into the customer area showing various photos on her iPhone to her friend. She went back and started making the frappe, stopping to talk AGAIN and then took another order! We'd probably still be waiting if I had not gone up to the counter and asked if we were going to get our second drink!Owners/managers...these girls need training! Won't be going back...I guess we'll go up the road a little bit to Dunkin! read more

For someone who loves coffee, the Swatara Coffee Shop is a great little gem located in Annville. My wife and I stopped by last night to try a few of their March Latte Madness creations and we weren't disappointed. I tried the Chocolate Covered Strawberry and it was delicious. My wife tried the Lucky Leprechaun and it was amazing as well. We also decided to grab a bite there.. they have a food menu with a good variety of sandwiches for breakfast and lunch. The breakfast sandwiches are available all day. I got the ultimate breakfast sandwich which was bacon, egg and cheese on an Asiago bagel. It was perfect - I will definitely be getting that again. The staff was also very friendly.. you can tell they enjoy what they do. I understand they have a second location in Jonestown as well although I haven't been there yet. Overall if you are in the area give them a try! You won't be disappointed with the coffee or food! read more

I had been to this location when they first opened and gave them the benefit of the doubt when I received bad service. It has been 6 months since then and when I returned I was up charged because I had to substitute for an item they did not have, which was the same thing occurred last time. I was forced to pay over 8 dollars for an item I didn't originally want, and I ordered a chai latte which was not what I was given. read more

this place is so cute, even if we can't sit inside because of covid. they have an outdoor area set up so you can enjoy your coffee and avocado toast while listening to music! i got a cafe au lait with caramel and the veggie avocado toast... delicious!! the baristas are so sweet and knowledgeable. i'll be back! read more
