Wanted to give a small business a try in Petersburg and stopped in for a quick pick-me-up. Upon entering I wasn't greeted and both Baristas were on their phones. I ordered a small, iced vanilla latte with whole milk (my go-to at a new spot, easy enough). I noticed that the espresso machine was filthy (there were only two patrons inside and both had received their orders) and the whole station was unclean with grounds everywhere and tampers still full of used espresso. My latte was truly undrinkable. It was truly putrid. The drink was bitter and sour at the same time and had such a burnt flavor that after two sips I couldn't even finish it. I'm always happy to "doctor my drinks" up in these instances (add milk, request something else) but as a former barista myself I knew this was an espresso issue, not a milk or syrup issue. Both baristas went back to texting and I left uncaffinated, disheartened and my drink went right in the trash. With other coffee spots nearby they really need to step their game up. I could have gotten a better latte (and probably better service) at Dunkin. read more

There's nothing like a neighborhood coffee shop...I love the outdoor seating and parking. As you enter in the decor makes you feel like coffee and something sweet. The service was fantastic and recommended a nice brand with almond flavor. Grab a seat and a book and enjoy a great date or meeting area. read more

A warm hello upon entering in this business with its large space and cool vibe ambiance. I had a customized latte and the ham + cheese sliders. I think my fig jam was left off so I asked for it which I later added to my sliders. The jam was sweet but I think it would kick it up a notch if it had a little heat to it. I love the art and they're already decorating for Christmas! Next time, I'd like to try one of their seasonal drinks. read more

Friendly, unpretentious, and designed so that you are encouraged and you are most welcome to sit in a cozy spot, read a book, work on your laptop, or have a nice conversation . The cozy seating was designed with little cozy nooks as opposed to having wide open seats in the middle of the room that leave one feeling exposed and uncomfortable. They also have plenty of seating! The drinks are great! My lavender latte was perfect. I had swiss and egg on a biscuit (I skipped the meat) and it was delicious. Yes--an actual egg fried to order on a home made biscuit. Very tasty. The decor is lovely and the business is for a great cause. Starbucks has gone down hill and with a business like this, there is simply no reason to ever go back, even if they gave away their coffee. It's just too nice here at Market St! read more

What a nice cafe! My sister goes to the church next door and told us about this place. So glad to come by. I very much enjoyed my oat milk white mocha. My husband enjoyed his medium roast drip. We both got cookies - I got chocolate chip he got white chocolate macadamia nut. Delicious!! Extremely nice staff. Lots of room for various groups so it's a great space to hang out and chat, whether you come with one other person or whether you come with 10 people. They have a great variety of coffee choices and a small but good selection of baked goods. If you live in the area I hope you frequent this place. If you are driving by, don't miss it. Way better than Starbucks. We will return. read more

F O O D I have a sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich and it was pretty good. S E R V I C E One of the female workers took the time to explain the businesses mission and vision as this was my first time coming into Market Street Coffee. Their story is one to be heard, and how they support their local businesses is beautiful A T M O S P H E R E I was so enveloped in the atmosphere within that I forgot to take pictures... which doesn't happen to me. This place is beautiful and a little slice of peace among the hustle and bustle of life. Definitely come check them out!! read more

Kinda mid... Nice staff, great location, but the coffee, deserts, and food are lackluster.

Market Street Coffee is a wonderful place to go for a nice cup of Joe and friendly staff! It was relaxing and I felt appreciated. Other than my waiter wearing a Dodgers hat, it was perfect! (Haha) - looking forward to returning! read more

If you're looking for a coffee spot that brews good vibes while making a difference, look no further than Market St. Coffee. Nestled in Petersburg, this cafe is absolutely gorgeous! With beautiful artwork adorning the walls, flexible seating, and free Wi-Fi, this was a lovely space for me to get some studying done, but it could also be a lovely spot to catch up with someone. They have a pretty expansive drink menu with employees who are extremely kind and willing to walk you through the options. They do not have many food options but have some yummy-looking pastries for sale. The best part is that proceeds go towards Regenesis, a non-profit that supports substance use recovery. I got a hot Golden Girls latte that they allowed me to get with oat milk, which was absolutely delicious! They also have fruity drink options and ice cream which I can't wait to try next! If you are looking for a caffeine fix that also supports a good cause, look no further and check this place out! read more

My friend and I were trying to grab some coffee at the Restored Cup around the corner from here, thinking it was the one that benefits Regenesis. Restored is apparently closed on Tuesday, so we ended up here instead. We found out that THIS is actually the place that benefits Regenesis. Not sure how I mixed that up, but happy little accidents... This space is really modern and elegant and cozy and cool all at the same time. It is brick with lots of white to brighten up the place, with random bits of color to keep it interesting. Gold accents, cool lighting, unique paintings. It is just urban enough to be cool, but cool enough to be cozy. There are lots of comfy seating options too. Comfy sofas, and wing back chairs and sleek marble tables. The specials for fall were awesome, my friend had the Golden Girls and I had the s'mores. Both were really good! Even the 20 ounce specialty coffee was the same price as any mermaid-logoed gain coffeehouse. Well worth the price. We also both had a muffin that was super moist and we went back for two of the "pop tarts". They are not made here, but they are made by one of my favorite little bakeries: Cakes and Moore in Colonial Heights (More on them in another review, but if you are going to bring in pastries to sell, I definitely LOVE that they use her and not something like the supermarket bakery. They also use Richland Dairy's ice cream in their affogatos and such, so you KNOW they will be good too. Everyone here was super helpful and friendly and loved talking about the venture that this business supports. We chatted with the outreach coordinator for Regenesis and she was so helpful, telling us about upcoming events (coffee and classic cars?!?!? Yes!) We really liked the ambience and the coffee and everything here so we will definitely start alternating between here and Demolition since we are fans of them too. We are so happy we accidentally discovered this place! read more

Drinks were smooth & strong enough to provide a days worth of go juice. The biscuits were excellent and super tasty, like I'm craving one now. But the atmosphere and the dining area that's where you first fall for this place. So many cute paintings, decor and seating areas. Loved it! read more

Market St. Coffee Georgetown, DC January 23, 2025 Market St. Coffee is a coffee shop lovers dream. The space is clean, bright natural light, all sorts of seating, the decor is absolutely stunning, the baristas were very friendly and most importantly their cortado was delicious. I drove two hours from home to drop my son off at an appointment. Petersburg, Virginia is not a large city so I was just happy to find a coffee shop. Demolition Coffee is another wonderful coffee shop in Petersburg, but I visited it last year; so I was excited to find a second shop in the small town. From my first glance of Market St. Coffee's building inthe parking lot I knew it was going to be beautiful. The owners did an incredible job with the decor and ambience of the shop. The building is old, but it was brought back to life with care. I should have taken more pictures of the inside. Looking around you can tell that Market St. Coffee sells more than coffee they are a gathering place for community. If you need a place to read, work or visit with friends Market St. Coffee is the place for you. Enjoying life one cortado at a time! read more

Meh. Latte was barely warm, and not good. I got the egg and cheese biscuit, threw away the bottom half of the biscuit. The cheese was on only 1/4 of the egg, the rest was melted into the tinfoil. I guess the standards around here aren't very high. Staff was cordial but not friendly. read more

Very nice decor. Welcoming staff. Inviting atmosphere. Good coffee. I will be back again if we are in the area.

Super friendly barista! Beautiful, large, open space. Nice selection of sweet treats and savory sandwiches. The coffee shop also supports a good cause. read more

Love the atmosphere. Lots of single, couple, group seating. There's even an area for larger groups. Love to see people in there working on their laptops and others just meeting with others. Perfect place for silent reading groups!! They had a few dessert items (cookies I believe) and the biscuits & gravy - which was really good. I'd definitely come back! read more

What a wonderful little coffee shop. Market street coffee has not only great service, drinks and atmosphere, but is a place that is doing good for those in need of additional support. My partner and I enjoyed a delicious cold brew coffee, fresh smoothie and got to take home coffee beans which the wonderful staff ground for no additional cost. I will be back to this shop, and I'm excited to try next season's specialty drink menu! read more

coffee is alright.. food is amazing, I love the biscuits!

Market Street Coffee is a nice addition to Petersburg; very pleasant servers in an art gallery atmosphere with a bistro-style menu. My favorite coffee is their Custom Gold Standard. read more

Beautiful outside with wooden accents and trim. Little sweet spot on an otherwise rather dull N market street. Street parking, small lot on the corner. I opened the door and what I found surprised and delighted me. Vaulted ceilings with modern light fixtures and furniture. Nooks of tables here and there for a cozy or restaurant vibe. There's a party/ meeting room that closes off. Very spacious inside and accommodating to families. Local farm Richlands ice cream on deck! Not a lot of food options other than a little pastry window, however the homemade pop tart was delicious! So was the cold brew with caramel. Will come again. read more
