The best lavender iced shaken espresso!! I was in the Chester area for work today and decided to stop in and try out the coffee here. It did not disappoint and perhaps was the best iced lavender drink that I have had. The service was quick and friendly, the cashier was lovely. The coffee shop is large, there is plenty of seating. The shop was well lit, with upbeat music and had a nice neighborhood vibe read more

Really weird vibe from the moment I walked in. The atmosphere felt off, and the coffee was honestly terrible--poor flavor, not enjoyable, and not worth the stop. Definitely passing on this one. read more

A clean traditional coffee spot with comfortable seating, lots of sun light, and a beautiful aesthetic (without the rainbow attitude) And the service is extremely friendly! read more

Had the Americano - their roast is fantastic! I'm a purist, no sugar, syrups, etc for me and I loved it. Plenty of parking. Clean, good service, wifi, spacious. read more

Such a cute shop! Ample seating. I can't believe I hadn't heard of it previously. Plenty of seating. Also lots of options for baked goods and different coffee and non coffee drink options. Parking is fairly easy too. read more

Thanks "Virginia Cafe Passport" for helping me find this place! This was our first visit in our cafe passport and it did not disappoint. Most important question, would I come back? Yes! Second most important, how's the house coffee? Unfortunately, it's weak and a little watery. Third, how's the latte? Great! Just was missing foam but it was smooth and rich. Fourth, staff? Great folks that were kind and attentive. Finally, the place. It was spacious with thoughtful seating. It was very clean and wasn't too loud. This shop is close enough to us that I'd come back. I'd come here for the latte, I just wish it was open later; I would love to come here on a Friday or Saturday afternoon/early evening but they close at 2pm. read more

We found this gem of a local coffee shop while visiting Chester, VA. Let me say that the service is exceptional and the ambiance of the cafe is very relaxed, welcoming, and comfortable. Although we did not try any of the baked goods, they looked absolutely delectable! They also serve breakfast and lunch as well! I can say without hesitation or reservation that if we lived in this area, we would be at this coffee shop daily! Oh, the coffee is really good as well!!! read more

Here on vacation and I'm already sad today is my last day having breakfast at this amazing coffee shop!!! Can't wait for my next trip so I can try more things!! The hits for us so far is of course the coffee, plain chicken salad on white bread and the egg sandwiches! I had a bagel with egg cheese and bacon. Wifey had croissant with egg ham and cheese. How do y'all get those eggs so creamy?! Delicious and of course staff is great!! See y'all soon (im practicing my y'all lol) read more

There pastry and coffee is ok, however their customer service is hit or miss. They're very dismissive and the ambiance in the cafe itself is stale for lack of a better word. read more

I've been here twice now. I might get one more chance before going home to Georgia. The service is great! First trip I had a large cold brew coffee and a cinnamon bun. Good coffee. The bun of fantastic. Sticky, sweet, warm - maybe the best I have ever had. Today was a Macchiato (it turned cold). The coffee was great. There was plenty of espresso and the right amount of milk. Most shops do mostly milk and some coffee. Two thumbs up. I also had a blueberry muffin and a banana nut bread muffin. Both great and fresh as can be. Please try this place. You will not be anything but happy. Only did a pic of the cinnamon roll. read more

Amazing experience. I was running errands in the area and wanted some coffee. This was an awesome place to grab a quick bite. Coffee was made perfect not too sweet. Breakfast sandwich was warm and felt as if I made it at home. 10/10 totally recommend trying them out! read more

They are super nice and the spices chai is delicious. The chicken salad is way too salty for me but the croissants are delicious.

Great staff all very kind however there were not enough people working for the customer demand. I waited 45 minutes for a latte and ended up leaving, not the staffs fault by any means they were multitasking but overwhelmed read more

Let me start by saying my Wife and I love coffee and we prefer to support local business. From a coffee perspective, we think Grant Coffee is five star. Unfortunately, coffee isn't the only thing they do. Today we visited for the fourth time. One other couple was in the whole place & there were three people behind the counter. Did we get a greeting? no. Once at the counter the young lady was pleasant enough however the gentleman behind the counter borders on unfriendly & rude. Now, I'm no Customer Service expert, but I'd figure a village coffee shop would be full on a beautiful Saturday morning... My Wife ordered a cinnamon roll, warmed. I guess technically it was "warmed" since it was above room temp, but barely. My breakfast sandwich was done well. All food had good flavor and service was the speed I'd expect from a small coffee shop. We'd go back if we were in the village, but certainly wouldn't go out of our way with so many other options. read more

Love that this place is Veteran owned! Their latte was smooth, flavorful and even without adding pumps of syrup was quite good. Very good mocha, not too sweet which is my preference. Definitely did not enjoy the drip coffee, it was too fruity, citrusy and acidic for my taste. Very clean cut ambiance, welcoming and friendly staff, great seating options and very clean. Will be back!! read more

The vibe was good . Live music . Staff friendly. Menu is not big, basic cafe style food. Sandwiches and drinks. We are active duty and love to support local businesses especially those who give a shout out to the military ( military discount offered). I will say the drinks are Starbucks prices. I wanted to love the coffee. unfortunately my drink experience was not good. Wait time a little long , he apologized for the wait. I watched him add more ice and mix to the drink . I order a Chai tea fap with almond milk. Appearance watery. What I received was more like flavored water without the flavor. I kindly brought it to the staff's attention, hoping for a quick fix or at least a bit of understanding. Instead, I was told there would be no refund. Because he made it according to the recipe card . Interesting approach to customer service. And the reason why I didn't ask for a remake is because I had already watched him. Try to fix the drink. It's a bold move to serve subpar coffee and then double down on it. If you enjoy weak drinks and strong indifference, this might just be your spot. For everyone else -- there are better options out there. To name a few Market place, Demolition coffee read more

So the coffee, cleanliness, and croissant sandwiches were impeccable. I would have rated higher for how good all of that was. The donut and cinnamon roll were pretty dry. Maybe it was a bad day. Everything else was so good that I just went with a five out of five because I was so excited about that. read more

Great atmosphere, fair prices, excellent coffee, and delicious food -- you'll love it!

Nice and spacious coffee shop with a few tables on the sidewalk as well. They have lots to choose from including breakfast sandwiches, bagels, croissants, cupcakes, donuts and muffins. I tried the blended drink on both of my visits and they were both really good and I will be returning when I'm back in the area. The staff was very helpful and super friendly. read more

A really chill spot with fairly priced food! I tried the chicken salad sandwich on a croissant and a lavender matcha latte. The chicken salad was a bit too salty for me which made me lose the flavor profile but the croissant was delicious. The latte was also good! The space has a grey industrial theme. read more

Cute coffee shop in Chester. The egg in the bacon egg and cheese was really good. Would be better with some seasoning. Loved the entire place a hipster vibe. The staff were very friendly. I went back a second time since taking the pictures I'm posting and the quality was consistent. Very good! read more

Freshly ground coffee and an inviting atmosphere. A must when in Chester Locally owned, small business, with the best coffee beans for purchase. read more

Great spot! Really enjoyed the coffee and a sausage, egg and cheese croissant. Service was fast and with a smile. Interior was comfortable. Could see myself working here for a few hours in the morning sometime read more

Coffee and food is really good. Service is outstanding. The restaurant is always clean, as well as the rest rooms .

Awesome!! Clean, friendly staff (he may have been the owner) & just what I was looking for & needed. Food was great

Love Grant Coffee, hand crafted drinks are excellent and a new GF option for me... Blueberry muffin is packaged safely and very yummy!! Thanks again read more

Love this coffee shop - right in the heart of Chester, excellent coffee, pastries, breakfast sandwiches- all of my favorite things! Owner and staff are good people, and this is a great meeting spot for those of us in the Chester area. Love supporting local businesses just like this, and I suggest you do the same. Highly recommended! read more

Update: Not a terminated employee. Just an unsatisfied customer. I think the owner's response speaks for itself. Staff is rude & coffee is not great. Would not recommend this place if you're looking for a welcoming environment to sip your coffee. read more

Living in Chester one gets used to the sad hegemony of chain stores. The opening of Grant Coffee Company, however, represents an exciting spurt of locally-driven growth in our community! Unsatisfied with Starbucks or fast-food coffees for either their prices, their flavor, or both, I have gotten used to not getting coffee in the morning on my way to work or just waiting till I get into the city to grab something. My plight is now over! I swung into Grant this morning to check out their offerings and was pleasantly surprised to find cold brew on the menu! They have all your classic espresso based drinks too. My partner grabbed a caramel macchiato on his way to work right when they opened at 6, and he couldn't stop raving about the quality of the beans and the good prices. $3.30 for a large cold brew is indeed a steal. Most other shops around charge a flat $4 for a 20 oz. This spot is hip with its stainless steal and clean furniture. There is a ton of seating whether you're there to do homework, work remotely, or catch up with friends. The owners' work to help provide meaningful employment to the autistic community is just another great reason to patron this place in addition to their quality coffee, comfortable location, and incredible prices. Any long-term Chester dwellers will remember when this location was once Chester Perk, a coffee shop that closed due to a lack of business. I hope Chester and the surrounding suburbs take note of this fantastic local addition to our village community and support this shop accordingly. read more

Really welcoming vibe and well-extracted espresso. They have a selection of different single-origin pour overs, so definitely a good stop for coffee nerds (like me). read more

Great place! Staff was super friendly. If you want to support a veteran owned business that cares about their community then this is your place. Great atmosphere. Comfortable seating. The restaurant was very clean. Got a coffee and sandwich. Both were great. Prices are reasonable. read more

Grant's is in the neighborhood so we walked up for a coffee one morning. It wasn't too crowded. Service was great. I got something frozen and it was good, unfortunately I can't remember what it was. I hear they are adding musicians so that will help create some atmosphere. My only complaint about Grants is that they aren't open long enough! They close shortly after lunch I believe. In addition to coffee drinks and specialties, they also have pastries , baked goods, and sandwiches. It's a nice little neighborhood spot. Just needs to be open longer to grow their customer base!! read more

A nice place, very clean and the atmosphere was fine. The coffee wasn't anything special but better than Starbucks.

Trey has an awesome coffee shop! When you walk in you immediately smell the warm aroma coffee beans. The atmosphere is a great place to relax and unwind from a stressful day. Trey is a true Patriot who loves his country! read more

Bagels aren't good enough to be labeled "mediocre". They dole out cream cheese like the future of the company hinges on how much goes on YOUR bagel RIGHT NOW! And they don't even spread it for you. You get a cup and a flimsy plastic knife that literally can't handle the job. And everything is a fortune. I understand that this is a little local business but what you pay extra, you're supposed to get back in value. You don't. Go down the road to WaWa and get a Sizzli instead... ...or go to Grant's where you won't get alot, but you'll pay alot. read more

The owner is so friendly and nice. The breakfast sandwiches, pastries, and drinks I've had are always fresh and delicious. Plus, the location is still close enough to shopping in the Tri-City are and yet is very home-like at the same time. read more

I placed an order online for an everything bagel sandwich and a coffee. I walked in and stood at the counter for about 3 minutes before the gentleman working greeted me. He was the only one working but I was the only customer at the counter. I watched him warm up the microwave bacon and I assume egg in the microwave. The bagel was cold but the egg and bacon were warm from the microwave. The food was so bad I couldn't finish the bagel after two bites. A waste of $9. I try to support local businesses but they have to step their game up. read more

Environment is great for work, studying, catching up. Staff is great too. Food not so much, looks kinda deceiving. Pistachio muffin is just colored rubber, cinnamon roll tastes like it was made 2 weeks ago (one of the worst I've ever had), coffee was alright. read more
