Best coffee shop on my coffee crawl. Super friendly baristas, covid safe but also allowing use of the loo, thank Jah. Great roaster with a knowledgeable staff. Tasty treats as well. Cute spot in the harbor. read more

Harbor Perk Coffeehouse & Roasting Company - Piña Colada Latte with coconut & pineapple - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ashtabula, Ohio

My husband really enjoyed a hot and iced latte, with their very own special house blend. I had a delicious Terry Bagel option, which is a pastrami and cream cheese sandwich on a bagel of your choice. The place was really cute, they had lots of options, it was clean and spacious, and they had plenty of seating inside and out for their customers. The staff was friendly and efficient, the lines were quickly taken care of! Definitely our coffee shop when we're in the area. read more

I love that this coffeehouse roasts all of their beans in house. That makes it next level, especially when you get to smell them roasting fresh. These guys really offer a whole range of everything coffee. Most beverages can be made hot or cold and with your choice of a plethora of delicious flavored syrups. They also offer bags of various degrees of freshly roasted whole bean coffee to go. The staff was very friendly and prompt. I can't wait to go back there! read more

This place is really cute. It feels very laidback and the staff is friendly. There are a couple of couches and a few tables around. We sat by the spinning wheel by the windows and enjoyed the sun shinning in. There are a couple of coffee roasters, giving this place more character. The coffee was great but a little on the pricey side. It's a great place to spend a couple of hours. Would definitely come back when we're in town again. read more

As a frequent visitor of Ashtabula I stop at Harbor Perk whenever I am in town. Unfortunately my most recent visit was disappointing. My family and I ordered coffees, bagels and tea. There was a black hair in my mother's tea as well as a hair in my cream cheese. I also asked for an iced caramel macchiato. The barista girl made it with espresso and milk. I asked for caramel drizzle on top as that is how it's usually made (and was made for me the day prior). The girl didn't even look me in the eye but grabbed the coffee from me. I asked how it's made if I should not expect the caramel drizzle in the future and she rudely said "we all make it differently it just depends who makes it". Which I thought was an odd response. read more

Harbor Perk Coffeehouse & Roasting Company used to be a really nice coffee shop before the new owners took over late 2022. I used to enjoy stopping in or catching up with friends here. The atmosphere definitely shifted with new ownership, but the drinks made by my favorite barista still hit the spot. However, I have watched it become a hostile workplace over the past 1.5 years. I've heard them yell at their employees on multiple occasions. They split tips with their employees (ick). They accused someone of trying to steal from them by asking to use her employee discount. Toxic environment! When two employees got a second job to supplement their income for upcoming life changes,and asked for a set schedule so they could work both, the owners immediately started yelling and belittling them. They had no problem going low here, and neither do I. They put out a new schedule and left one employee off entirely, and the other got only closing shifts. Obviously that would interfere with her new job at a restaurant. When she asked about it, she was told she isn't entitled to anything. She was told she's been a terrible employee, that they received so many complaints about her customer service, and other bs. He told her to go home, and that her shift tomorrow "was taken care of" and "we're done here." Since I was listening on the phone, I have zero problem taking the full brunt. My friend did not deserve the treatment she got here. Maybe she wasn't fired (even though it's pretty clear to me that she was), they certainly made it a hostile and exhausting work atmosphere. Nobody has to stay and work for people that make them feel small, unimportant, and unvalued. This is NOT a healthy place for teenagers to work! read more

Excellent coffee shop, very friendly and welcoming. Cool relaxed vibe, great tasting coffee and the free smell of the coffee roasting is the best bonus of all! read more

I love this place - It's one of the few places I know that has 90s coffeehouse vibes. Whenever I am in the area I make sure to stop by at least once to get a coffee or smoothie. The staff is always friendly and has a smile on their face. This time around I had an oatmilk latte with hazelnut. I asked for an extra shot, and the barista recommended I try their bottomless espresso. From what I understand it's much smoother -- either way, it was worth the $1.50. read more

The best coffee, the best vibes, the BEST study space. Being all virtual this semester and therefore being at home from college, Harbor Perk is my go-to getaway when I need a study break away from my home. 100% recommend. read more

Amazing service. I love the atmosphere! I am so glad this place remains open for the times I travel back to Ashtabula and need to do school work or read. read more

Okay, the sign on the bathroom door is hysterical. Apparently the lock on the door doesn't work, so heed Steve Farrell's words and BEWARE. LOL. I had high hopes for my latte but it had a bit of an aftertaste like cigarette ashes. It was weird. I love the space, and the patio in the back is sublime. Maybe I caught the place on an off day? read more

Talk about ROASTED coffee! My Dad liked the coffee--- that NEVER happens! He says it's no fancy schamency but that's why he likes it! Next to the Lake, this coffee house is the ONLY reason why I come to Ohio. read more

I got the best chai latte I have had in a long time today at Harbor Perk. A weekend away in Ashtabula was that much sweeter with a few trips to this little gem. The staff was very friendly, and the shop felt exactly like what a small town coffee shop should, warm & eclectic with some hometown charm. My next visit to Ashtabula will definitely include another stop to this tasty joint. Also...they roast their own beans here! Woot! read more

An incredible array of delicous coffees, non-coffee beverages and treats, friendly staff, incredible ambience...this place is a gem.

First of all, Ashtabula is adorable. This coffee shop sits on a strip of small businesses that all support each other. This shop is charming and draws you right in. I had an iced caramel latte and loved it. My boyfriend had their iced coffee with a shot of espresso and loved that. We came back two days later and had the same things. They sell their house roasted beans to go, so I took home a bag of their dark roast (to make cold brew with), and I also grabbed a few snacks for the drive home (pepperoni balls? Yes please). I wish this place was closer to the burgh! So cute, wonderful coffee and super friendly staff to boot. read more

Best independent coffeehouse and roaster I've come across. If you haven't been here it's worth the drive.

Love Harbor Perk! It is located right on historic Bridge street near the historic Ashtabula harbor. It is such a cool area to walk around. You can see boats, freighters and the lift bridge open and close. Harbor perk has such great coffee. It always tastes so fresh. I love to get an almond milk latte with different flavored syrups. The staff are always friendly and the decor/vibe are very cool. Definitely worth a visit when you are in the area!! read more

My husband and I live in California, but stock up on Harbor Perk coffee every time we come to Ashtabula to visit family! The coffee is -- in my husband's words -- among the best he's ever had. Not only does Harbor Perk offer a variety of well-crafted and flavorful roasts, but the atmosphere at the coffee shop is such a compliment to the developing Bridge Street area! read more

Mike and Steve and the entire Staff are just freaking fantastic. Even when my coffee gets cold because I'm going hard at work that I don't even sip it... they keep me warm. Much love for this group. PerkSquad read more

Love this place, we hit it up often on our way over to Cleveland. Excellent coffee and the atmosphere is inviting and friendly.

So glad to find this little hidden gem. What's better than entering a cute town out for a drive on a Sunday morning, a coffee shop that fits into this town perfectly, with Sunday hours!!! Wide selection with friendly staff offering help in selecting the right drink for you. I recommend trying some of the fresh home baked goods as well. Such a warm and inviting feel, will stop back if in the area again! read more
