Roast has a ide array of beverage options, both specialty and typical, that are served with such precision. I was there around 12:30pm this afternoon and the line was long but very manageable. The drink took a bit to make because of the large volume of orders and the craftsmanship involved with their creation, but it was well worth the wait. My samoa latte was the perfect coffee drink on a hot day and the toasted coconut flavor made a really nice statement despite being subtle. All in all, I will absolutely be back because their seasonal items all sounded delightful. Pro tip: there is a nice sized shaded patio in the back of the store with at least 4 tables if you want to escape the bustle of the cafe. read more

Coffee was okay, but the customer service left a lot to be desired. None of the staff acknowledged or greeted customers as they walked in. I stepped aside to look at the menu before ordering, and when I was ready to pay, a staff member commented, "Maybe you could be quicker next time ordering." Working at the hospital 5 minutes away from this location and worked as a barista before, I expected a much higher level of professionalism and customer service. A simple greeting and a little patience would have made a big difference. read more

Cute spot with great coffee options. One star deducted as I ordered the honey bunny latte and received honey lavender latte. I tried to get their attention to fix it, but was unsuccessful and left with the lavender latte. Thankfully I don't mind lavender, so I was okay leaving with the wrong order. Coffee itself was AMAZING! One of the better coffees I've had! Can't wait to come back. read more

I visited Roast yesterday around 4:30pm (they close at 5pm on Saturdays) there was a long line all the way to the back of the coffee shop but I really have been wanting to try their drinks so I waited. I ordered a Blueberry Matcha Latte off of the spring specials menu. At first I didn't give it a good enough stir but once I finally was able to, it tasted much better! It was pretty good and not overly sweet. As I was waiting, I noticed the pastries inside of the case and was tempted to order one. I really liked the modern design of the interior space. There's a little bit of seating at the front and along the side wall. There are a lot of great coffee shop options in Morristown but I recommend stopping in if you are in the downtown area. read more

Wow, what a nice little place, very homie feeling, very comfortable. First off I got the croissant stuffed with scallon cream cheese with everything bagel seasoning on the top 7/10, it was super soft very fluffy, only complaint is they could put more filling inside. My wife got the lucky charms coffee and it was very good had great taste and the coffee itself is very good. Service was very good line moved fast and was in and out in about 10 minutes. read more

This new coffee shop is amazing for so many reasons! First of all, cutest vibe ever as far as music and I loved the design choices. My friend got the banana bread cinnamon latte and I got the toasted samoa latte which were both so flavorful. I've had a lot of banana bread lattes and this one was arguably my favorite! As far as baked goods (I can't speak to the sandwiches)- they were droooool worthy. We originally got the maple cruffin and the double chocolate chip cookie and they were SO fresh, gooey and delicious. The owners Jesse and Sally kept checking in on the customers since it was so packed and they were short staffed, so I'm sure the long lines and staffing will get figured out in the coming weeks as they get settled! Lastly, the best surprise of the day was that since they were closing at 3 the owner Jesse gave us the pastries they were going to toss out so we also got to try the matcha cookie, the ube cookie, the walnut chocolate chip cookie and the toffee bun and those were just as delectable as the other pastries. We will definitely be back :') read more

Been a few times now and absolutely love the coffee. It's soooo good, but the last time I was there the price put me off :( I got the Motown latte 16 oz and asked to add a little bit of maple, take out less vanilla. It made my latte jump from $6.50 to $9.00? Idk just felt like way too much. It's great but for that price I'm not sure I can justify it frequently read more

Great addition to Morristown! I had the Blueberry Matcha and it was amazing! Staff was very friendly :)

Roast Coffee is a vibe. Clean space, good energy, and the coffee actually tastes like coffee. You can tell they care about what they're serving. Staff is super cool. My favorite Morristown coffeeshop read more

Visited on a Tuesday around noon and no wait. Ordered a 24 oz. Samoa latte and a 16 oz. honey latte both with Almond Milk which cost $19 without tip. Both tasted exactly the same. Couldn't taste the coconut, chocolate or honey at all. Both myself and a friend who visited in the past were running to the bathroom quickly after. Won't be returning. read more

Roast Coffee House in Morristown, which recently opened in late 2025 after an extensive renovation of the space on South Street previously occupied by Smart World Coffee, features freshly-made artisan-quality hot or iced beverages, baked goods, and sandwiches. Roast Coffee House features a clean, modern aesthetic but (as other reviewers have noted) the physical layout of the space is awkward. Customers entering from the front entrance on South Street need to navigate their way to the back of the shop.. through a relatively narrow space between customers waiting adjacent to the counter for their orders, sitting at the hightop tables along the opposite wall from the counter, and standing in line to place their order.. then queue up in line facing the front of the store. When Roast gets crowded during peak times as it did on the Saturday after Thanksgiving with plenty of folks home for holidays.. the layout can create a pretty unpleasant experience. Customers were packed into the narrow space and experiencing long delays to place and get their order. My drip coffee was served to me right away, but I had to wait over 20 minutes (and ask the barista who noticed my ticket had been placed behind later orders and quickly moved it to the front of the line) for my coffee-drinking companion's Americano. After the wait, neither of us thought our basic brews were anything noteworthy. All things considered, it was a disappointing first experience at Roast.. but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt given the holiday and try it again for some of the more unique beverage offerings when it is less crowded. PRO TIP #1: Roast does not have a private parking lot, but there is plenty of on-street parking on South Street and Pine Street. Bring change or use the ParkMobile app for the meters ($1 per hour) Monday through Saturday from 8am til 6PM; all street meters are free Monday through Saturday after 6pm and all day on Sunday. If you can't find a spot on the street, the Morristown Parking Authority DeHart Street garage (@ 13 Dehart Street) or lot (@ 12 Wilmot Street) are a short walk to Roast. read more

I was looking forward to trying the newly opened Roast in Morristown! We went relatively early on a Saturday morning so the line wasn't too long. I had the banana bread latte and my friend ordered the crème brew-yay. I loved the rounded bottoms of the plastic cups and my latte came with a small piece of banana bread! It was cold, but I loved the unique addition to the drink. The latte could have used a little less banana syrup but it was still delicious. I would definitely come back to roast to try their matcha or other drinks! read more

The competition continues to grow in Morristown. I'm a Lokl and Rey Sol girlie, but I also really liked the iced Americano from Roast. It's a moderate strength similar to Lokl (Rey Sol is POWERFUL). This is a good amount of caffeine and a good taste. The interior is...trying a bit too hard. Nothing special. Same thing like General Coffee, it's modern and "whatever". Not unique by any means. Lokl is creative and fun and very special. The one thing I like about Roast that makes them different is the shape of their coffee cups - that's pretty fun and unique. I also appreciate how they let you do your own milk and sugar - I can't stand when my coffee gets "milked down" due to someone adding too much. Much better when I can control the amount. Let's see how they do. read more

Oh man, this is a hard review, but let's start off with the positives. Aesthetics of the cafe is absolutely chef's kiss. Totally gives me LA vibes. And now for the crux of the review: from entering to getting my drink, I waited almost an hour. I totally understand it's the holiday time and they have more customers than usual, but waiting an hour for a drink is pretty wild. I talked to the barista and she told me this was one of their slower days. If this is a slower day, I can't imagine what a busy day looks like! The drink was good and tasty but because I waited so long I wasn't as excited. It's also incredibly loud in the cafe. I wouldn't mind the music if I was in and out, but it's a lot on the ears if you're in the cafe for awhile. I also noticed that they charged a 3% service fee upfront without having any signage. I do wish they would have made that known before ordering drinks. I know they're a new establishment but would love to see if they're able to improve some processes so the wait can be cut in half. read more

Their opening day was crazy busy. We waited in line which was not moving at all. We gave up after a while and went to Lokl. The next weekend we tried again and were able to get in. The setup is very poor. To get in line to place your order, you have to walk all the way to the back. There's barely any room to walk back without pushing up against someone and being elbowed by other patrons who are attempting to place an order. Once you place the order, if you find a seat in the back, I feel for you. The orders come out front and you have to struggle to get back to the front. Bringing the coffee back was another ordeal. The food comes out from the kitchen in the back and they constantly disturb the customers waiting in line to order. The servers don't really interact with customer and didn't ask if we needed anything else. The food was pretty good- we tried the smoked salmon toast and the chipotle turkey sandwich. The coffee is alright, nothing unique. Disappointed as we had been waiting for this place to open for quite some time and watched them get setup nice the past few weeks. I hope this is just struggles of the early days and improves as they get settled. read more

This new shop I visited was so cute! The line was very long, but I'm glad I waited! They got through each customer relatively quickly. I ordered the honey bunny latte (spring special) and it was absolutely delicious. I loved the aesthetic of this location as well. Will be back :) read more

Stopped in one busy Saturday for coffee & a pastry. I ordered an iced latte and a croissant. The latte was good; the croissant was terrible--too much butter and being underbaked made it a super soggy mess, especially in the middle. The place is cute but very crowded and it's hard to get in line without pressing up against everyone else in line. Staff was friendly but overall, just an ok experience for the price. read more

This place is not stroller friendly. It is obviously very popular, so much so that the line stretches to the narrow bathroom hallway. I had my baby in his stroller with me, which couldn't fit down the hallway so I tried to wait and loop the line around but everyone kept cutting me. It's a shame because it seems the coffee is that good, just not a place made for new moms! ‍ read more

I went here the day after they opened and it was amazing! I tried their banana bread latte and really enjoyed it- it is a bit pricier but definitely will be going back to try more menu items! read more

Roast Coffee House - Banana Bread Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Morristown, New Jersey

I really love the banana bread latte here. However, one morning before work I went out of my way to go to roast and they didn't have the banana bread that goes on the latte :( I understand these things happen but the guy said they didn't have it "yet". I went before work so I'm hesitant to go back again that early if they're not fully opened. read more

1) Coffee drink was mediocre (expensive, no flavor, watery). Caramel sea salt w/ sea salt match cold foam 2) Service was awful. 20mins wait to order (7 people/group in line) and then another 20mins wait for drink to be served (one drink) 3) Staff members showed no sign of haste ~9:30am EST. Male staff member was basically twiddling his thumbs. read more

I was hesitant to believe the hype but Roast made the best strawberry matcha I've ever had, and their banana bread latte is amazing. The line was out the door but it was genuinely worth it. And the baristas were SO patient and helpful. read more
