My favorite ice cream coffee place. The "Rocky river" shake is a must try. I recommend to ask for 2 shots of espresso instead of the 3 they put when ordering a large. Chocolate and vanilla mix..... simply great. read more

Extremely disappointing experience. The staff completely ignores customers, and the quality of the drinks is well below acceptable standards. Management also fails to follow basic dietary restrictions and requests, showing a total lack of care for safety and customer service. To top it all off, under the management of Dave, they actively delete honest negative reviews to artificially inflate their ratings read more

Rocky River is a solid choice in Harrisburg area. It tends to get crowded, so prepare for a short wait. I enjoy the outdoor space, but the flys are relentless! read more

Rocky River Coffee - Breakfast Burrito + honey oat milk latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Harrisburg, North Carolina

I swear the drinks here keep getting better and better! Definitely was on my list to visit while I was visiting a friend I tried them last time and their blueberry latte was delicious! Of course the seasonal menu came out and I noticed they had a gingerbread white mocha latte that I definitely needed in my life and it did not disappoint. The drink had the best gingerbread flavor and with the white mocha cold foam honestly, it was so good. I came back before I left to get another one and I also got some coffee beans to bring home on our travels. It wasn't the same but the flavor of the beans were nice and has a smooth pull . read more

This is me and my husbands weekend staple & how we start our Saturday & we can't recommend this place enough. The only downside is that this place 100% needs to expand bc the rushes are insane The pastries are delish - so far we've tried the cream cheese danish, the house crumb cake, the grandmas coffee cake (i think.. im now blanking on it...), blueberry muffin & the raspberry lemon muffin. All very yummy!! We've tried all sorts of coffee & they have new flavors & creations all the time! Their July flavors were Apple/Blueberry Pie; my personal fave is the toasted coconut - tastes like a creamy beach trip The atmosphere is adorable & rustic; decent amount of indoor seating as well as outdoor, not much standing room when it's busy bc you're just constantly in someone's way whether its a worker or a customer. The service is quickly and easy & we love the punch cards they offer. I love how much merchandise is available for sale & i get so excited to see the new pottery from the local Typically we go around 12 pm on a Saturday but this time we went closer to 10 AM and spend the most amt of time - it unfortunately took 31 minutes from getting in line to getting back into the car. My husband had finished his coffee while waiting for a *toasted bacon egg and cheese on a plain bagel that apparently was put in as a SEC on an everything bagel & not toasted lol We have never had any issues before, the service is always great and the food is delicious & warm, so i guess this one time was just a crazy rush! Rocky River is wonderful & I highly recommend! read more

I wasn't too impressed with our first visit. It wasn't bad, just wasn't great either. There is plenty of parking available in the lot directly behind the shop. Inside there are several seating options including 2-person, 4-person tables and comfy arm chairs. They also have a charming outdoor patio. The menu offers a great variety including monthly specialty drinks. The have several baked goods and blue bell ice cream available as well. The wait wasn't too bad considering they were fairly busy. I tried the blueberry pie latte. It was okay, but I was expecting more flavor. It tasted like a regular hot latte. Good service, nothing that stood out, but again, they were busy. Would give it another shot, but I'll probably stick to the basics next time. read more

Got the bacon, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel. Took them 20 minutes to make it. Luke warm at best. Bagel not toasted. I guess you need to specify (they didn't ask how I wanted it). Service was ok. Also, the temp in the cafe was around 65. Bring a hoodie if you come. read more

Rocky River Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Harrisburg, North Carolina

I've been here twice and both times were pleasant. My husband and I were rushing a few days ago to get to the airport but wanted to grab coffee and food before so we ended up here. The service was fast and received exactly what we wanted. I ordered the lavender latte and it was delicious!! I'm not much of a coffee drinker but I needed it that day. I also got the bagel with cream cheese and bacon egg and cheese. The bacon, egg, and cheese could have used a little more flavor but it wasn't bad. The coffee shop is also a good place to work (which is what I did the first time I visited). It's quiet and there's an outdoor area too. read more

Rocky River Coffee - Butterbeer Iced Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Harrisburg, North Carolina

The wait time has become a huge issue . They must be aware of the amount of business they receive and need to find a way to speed things up ether with staff or maybe making the location bigger . read more

I had been wanting to try this place for a while. Finally went one evening and I was disappointed. I feel like the timing had a lot to do with how my visit went so maybe if you go during the day it would be better. The baristas were not very nice and friendly. I got a normal iced vanilla latte and it was okay. Nothing to write home about. There was a family in front of us getting ice cream and they were rude so I think that colored my experience. They have ice cream, some pastries, and a decent sized menu. There is a lot of parking but they share it with other businesses and it was packed when we went. I would like to give it another try sometime but overall was not super impressed. read more

Rocky River Coffee - a quote from a customer - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Harrisburg, North Carolina

Food is always good. Coffee even better and stellar service. Would definitely recommend for a quick breakfast or afternoon pick me up.

I absolutely adore this coffee shop in the Burg! It's tucked away and a hidden gem. They have a wide selection of syrups you can add, sugar free as well. The customer service is unmatched. I went in there for the first time and they were so kind. They made me a delicious iced latte and warmed me up an apple danish. I love the atmosphere. It's quiet yet inviting. They sell large coffee syrups which I love for days when I make coffee at home. If you happen to stop by, get a danish. You won't regret it. read more

Went in this morning to try it, and I wish I hadn't. This place is a joke--it's not a New York bagel. It's a cheap shop ran by girls. I ordered a bagel with vegetable cream cheese, not toasted. I got a plain bagel with plain cream cheese--toasted. I came in to get it fixed and they said they didn't have vegetable cream cheese--why wouldn't you tell me that when I ordered??? I asked for a refund and they gave me cash. They couldn't give it on card. When the girls called for someone to help give a refund, she yelled to her and the response was "what?! I'm busy!" Classy. Please do NOT go to this place. If you want a real bagel, go to Mike's Bagels. Way better. Which is where I ended up. Never again. Update: I posted this on Google reviews and the owner had a less than tasteless response--blaming the incident on the customer rather than taking accountability. No wonder the customer service is lacking; he has zero inklings of what good customer service is. Congratulations on being in business for so many years. Nobody cares. read more

Wonderful coffee shop that also serves blue bell ice cream. My iced lavender vanilla latte was delicious and the perfect afternoon treat. In the afternoon they still had plenty of bakery items left which is always a plus in case you want a snack. They had a few open seats inside that included small tables and more lounge type chairs. read more

I don't like the place and the coffee taste bad and the service doesn't work well the place not good for family and the place inside smells bad from the airconditioning read more

I been coming to this coffee shop for some years now and im not a regular but i can say when you come in to this place you feel like family, ok ok enough with this here is my choice when i come in here: SKILLETS!!! They can whip up some simple scrambled eggs with either ham, bacon or sausage with cheese, you can have it to go or eat there if you take it to go you get a container and you eat there you get a...........SKILLET! Lol. These skillets are amazing just simple and fast. You should try them. Also they have a coffee cake that its to die for. Overall this coffee shop is my favorite in the area has outside seating and it's quiet, there is a lot of locals that are always there. Great atmosphere. Staff is great and they are very helpful. Thanks guys for always being consistent read more

Rocky River Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Harrisburg, North Carolina

Coffee - good Pastries, bagels, etc. - very good. Customer service - good but very slow. For example, an expresso coffee and toasted bagel could take about 10 min+ at any given time. Not necessary during rush hours. They do not answer calls otherwise I would have called ahead to order to save 10-13 min waiting time. Nope! read more

(See update at bottom) First time ordering a bagel and cream cheese and there is barely any cream cheese on it. Very disappointing. Would not order bagels from them again unfortunately. **update 11/19/20** the business owner did reach out to me to offer to remake the bagel for free, which was nice. I declined as I wanted to order it again without special treatment and see if they do this for everyone or if it was a one-time deal. Ordered a bagel with CC again today and same thing. Their breakfast sandwiches are excellent (I get it on a croissant) but not a fan of the bagels since they skimp on the CC. Order with extra extra CC or get something else. read more

Rocky River Coffee - Barely any cream cheese. Makes me a sad panda. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Harrisburg, North Carolina

A Sunday morning stop for a breakfast burrito, iced chai and iced coffee to go. The staff was super-friendly and lightning fast, except for the food. Our drinks were ready and waiting before we even finished paying. The iced chai was good however, it was pre-made so the options to change the milk didn't exist. They use skim milk which was okay but I would have preferred almond milk and I heard someone else ask for oat milk. I suspect if they started allowing the customization then they would definitively sacrifice speed. My iced coffee was like a ninja was hidden among ice cubes, launching a full on assault in your mouth when taking a drink. This is a powerful drink that had the potency of espresso but the flavor of cold brew coffee. I like it, a lot but it was a very interesting explosion of flavor and intensity. I feel like I won't sleep for four nights. The downside of RRC is the speed of the food preparation. To their credit, a disclaimer is hung over the pick up section that mentions they are not a fast food restaurant, food is made to order and to be patient. We ordered two breakfast burritos, one with sausage and one with turkey, a customer behind us ordered a breakfast sandwich then a third customer was told the wait would be 30 minutes for food. We waited about 15 minutes for our burritos and there was no one in front of us. The burritos tasted really good and were nice and fat. I would not order the turkey burrito again; it was cooked fine but I wasn't a fan of the taste. read more

I love the coffee, tea and great service! Don't forget to get an ice cream waffle cone!

This is a nice little coffee shop in Harrisburg that has a good selection of flavored syrup for their coffee and a good selection of food items. It's fairly small, but it's cozy inside and they have Wi-Fi as well, just look for the password at the bottom of your receipt. I've only had their drip coffee and bagels, but my wife and friends have had lattes and they enjoyed them. They also sell ice cream which is also very good. The staff is friendly and helpful and the shop is clean. I definitely prefer to patronize small businesses like this for coffee instead of the more well known places for when I don't want to make coffee at home. read more

What a treat on our road trip through Harrisburg! Everyone was so friendly and service kind and prompt. We had a large order and one item got looked over and in a very busy moment the server from the back kindly and quickly toasted and buttered our bagel for our driver. It was so refreshing and we gave a generous tip to reflect the kindness and amazing service. What a great town! Traveling from KS, to GA, VA and NH and Charlotte/Harrisburg was one of our favorite stops! Thank you so much! read more

I've been scouting out new coffee shops/places to work. I would say why, but then I'd have to mention my regular spot and that's not cool. Anyway, Rocky River is located in such a sweet little shopping area in Concord. I have never been to this area of town and I'm so glad that I have found it. I went in on a late Sunday morning for coffee and work. It wasn't crowded at all. I ordered the Salted Caramel Mocha latte and it was simply amazing! Truly can't complain about it. I also had a bagel with cream cheese. Overall, I really love this place. It is definitely in the running as my new "spot." There is plenty of parking and other businesses in the area to shop and eat. read more

Oh my this place is awesome! We found it in the visitors magazine and it did not disappoint! Very friendly and efficient staff. The drinks were made to perfection. The atmosphere was very welcoming and is was full of people who were engaged in conversation. Community begins here! Definitely better than Starbucks!! read more

Usually enjoy coming here. It's a nice place to sit and chat with friends. Coffee is a little long to come out but nothing unreasonable. However, last night, I ordered an Afroggotto (ice cream and shot of espresso). It's on the menu but the worker was confused what it was and asked what blend of coffee I wanted. Her coworker informed her of her mistake so she asked if I had wanted the shot or the drip coffee. I informed her that I wanted a shot of espresso and she added more drip coffee. I ended up with a soupy, warm mess that filled up the entire container. I'll be sticking to my iced coffee from now on read more
