I can not say I enjoyed the coffee. I don't know why but my latte was extremely bitter. I ordered it with almond milk but the label says cashew also which I was not told. My husband got a simple espresso shot over ice and he immediately said it seemed off. Very bitter. For the price of 8.80 this latte was extremely disappointed. The place is clean and chill but overall not worth the visit to me. read more

This location is a super cool spot! Clean and spacious interior. I got a White Lotus latte, which was delicious! The barista helped me decide, and she was absolutely right. I'd definitely return to this location and get this exact drink again. read more

I really wanted to like this place, but I feel misled by the high ratings. Maybe I visited on an off day, or perhaps the reviewers are college students who haven't experienced great food yet. I ordered an egg burrito, and unfortunately, it wasn't made to order. The lack of care in scrambling the eggs and wrapping them in a fresh flour tortilla was disappointing. The restaurant was empty, yet what I received was a microwaved burrito. Wrapped tightly in parchment paper, it was extremely hot, but when I opened it, I realized it had been frozen, quickly defrosted in the microwave, and then tossed in a pan. The burrito was dry and stale definitely not worth the $9 price tag. It was small, almost like a hot pocket. I won't be returning to this place. Coffee was okay. read more

Im sorry I hate when coffee shops say cold foams can only be put on certain drinks... isn't being able to curate the drink your customer is asking for a part of the experience? Was told the pumpkin cold foam couldn't be placed on matcha. But Whats stopping you from doing it? Too strict in here.. like come on whats with the restrictions on using cold foam??? Let people get their festive matcha in peace. Had to change my whole order. read more

Cute, clean vibe with plenty of space to hang out. Service was patient, kind, and super friendly while I took my time looking over the menu. Tried their So Long Summer specials--the iced horchata latte was just okay, but the cold brew oolong tea was floral, refreshing, and definitely the highlight. I'd come back to try their coffee next time. read more

Just okay! Parking is right on Granby so be prepared to parallel park and potentially have to pay the meter! We came on a Sunday and parked in a 30 minute loading zone to quickly stop in for some coffee beans and coffees The people working were extremely nice and very welcoming! We were choosing some coffee beans as a gift and they were able to explain what types of beans they use in store. We got a 10% discount for 'older' beans which is nice to know that their stock is continuously rotating and they keep track of that kind of stuff. I got a cold brew + milk and sweetener. Unfortunately, this missed the mark for me. The cold brew was sour and acidic, perhaps it wasn't extracted long enough or the coffee was too coarse when soaking. Not a coffee expert but just my two cents! I would recommend their lattes which are a lot better and the flavors better balance each other out I also got an iced matcha latte and was happy that they are one of the few places that use quality matcha and a matcha whisk. I do like my lattes on the sweeter side so I will request a flavor or something next time. Overall, I would still recommend Three Ships but with the warning that this is not Starbucks or Dunkin, their coffee speaks for itself and the additional stuff will come... additionally. read more

The coffee is pretty good I must say. Did not provide me a sleeve and it was very HOT. Service is zero... no hello, no goodbye, no nothing. NON EXISTENT. Ambience seems like it has potential to be pretty good, was my first time and honestly the coffee is good but I will NEVER COME BACK. Not welcoming at all, no customer service touch whatsoever. read more

Stopped by the sister location of the original Three Ships Coffee in Norfolk this morning for a couple drinks to go. I was a little surprised to see how busy they were, given they rarely are whenever I do stop in. The service, however, was quick and on point, so no complaints there. I do prefer the original spot at the beach, though. The high ceilings and colors inside make it seem much more industrial and a little less warm. The coffees, though, which are what I was there to get, were great as expected. I do wish they would have their coconut cold foam. I've been three times in the last couple of weeks to both locations first thing in the morning, and they have always been out. read more

Bfast biscuit was delicious and the chai is on the spicy side which I love, very quick service as well. Environment is perfect for remote working read more

I asked for a dirty chai latte. I'm not sure if it was because the chai was too intense or the oat milk was too strong, but something didn't taste right to me. The service and vibes were great. Highly recommend if you want a place to study or do some work. There is street parking, but you might need to park at a garage one block from the cafe. read more

Beautiful location on Granby St. for a modern coffee house! I love the artwork inside. It reminded me of Loki and Miss Time. lol. I made it in time to try their holiday menu before they ended it. So I got to try their gingerbread latte and egg nog latte. The egg nog is pre-maid with milk so if you have dairy-intolerance, then don't get it (like me). But I did order that for my brother who really enjoyed it! I liked my gingerbread latte but felt like I didn't get much hints of gingerbread. I think what really sticks out to me is that they make their treats from scratch and they are ones that we know we'll like pop-tarts and an oatmeal cookie sandwich! I love the way they present their iced lattes. From their brand's label to the vintage black and white straw... it's a vibe. My daughter got a chocolate chip cookie. It was huge and tasty. She enjoyed it so much that I didn't even get to try it. They were busy when I went therefore, I waited about 10 minutes for our drinks. I wish the service was a little faster but what can you do when it's a busy day?! There is modern-like seating by the window. But not plentiful. Most seats were taken when I was there. I have been talking up this cafe to my family so I definitely recommend it to those who end up reading this review! Enjoy! read more

This was a beautiful coffee shop however if you are wanting good customer service and a welcoming environment, this is not the place. I was interested in buying some beans and had some questions on the roast and the barista was short with me and did not make eye contact, basically wanted me to leave. The other barista who finished the transaction was the exact same way. I had high hopes for this coffee shop but unfortunately I will not be returning. read more

I will admit, I am a very sweet coffee woman. Like coffee with my cream. This place is a real coffee shop. The matcha is straight from the grass. It's great quality! But if you like trash coffee like me, maybe add cream and sugar. This is not a them problem, but a personal preference! The service is great and the spot is super cute, great logos and branding. Hit it up if you are a real coffee person! read more

Overall a good experience!! This is apparently their third location and I like that it's situated where it is. In the heart of downtown Norfolk, so many other places to shop/eat/explore/etc. Good luck finding parking though.... I had the Vanilla Latte and the Breakfast Burrito. Vanilla Latte was great, super light and flavorful. Not gonna lie, the breakfast burrito was just alright - it didn't taste bad at all but it definitely could've meshed all the ingredients together a bit better, and the small size of it threw me off. Not a bad meal but definitely could be worked upon more. Service was great! It was my first time there and they were understanding and helpful in my experience. There are only 1-2 workers at any given time, so please be patient with them. read more

This is such a cool place in the heart of downtown Norfolk! They have merchandise for sale, including a pour over gadget. I got one of their Valentine's specials with Maraschino cherry cappuccino . It was really smooth. I also tried their oatmeal cream pie, and a vegan gluten-free muffin. The service was stellar. The barista took the time to answer my questions. I'll be back as they have so many options to try, especially their breakfast burrito. read more

Only pro to this place is they get your drink to you pretty quickly. As someone who will spend too much on a coffee, this place is way too pricey. Also, no nonfat milk options only nut. And no caramel. $8 for this tiny iced vanilla latte. (No my hands are not giant) read more

Three Ships Coffee Roasters- Norfolk - Small af iced vanilla latte - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

This has been the best coffee I have found in Virginia so far, 9/10. I always order an iced vanilla latte with either almond or oat milk and it was fantastic! I also ordered one of their breakfast sandwiches, and while everything was fresh and delicious I'm not sure I'll order it again. The sandwich was a little pricer than I like to spend but for a special treat every once in a while it's worth it. There was only one gentleman working when I came and the wait was a little long, maybe 10-15 minutes, but worth it. He was very friendly and handling all of these orders by himself. Would definitely come again! read more

Stopped by when I was nearby. I looked for anything with tea and this popped up. I've been meaning to try their other locations and was surprised to find this newer shop. It's conveniently on the corner of E Freemason and Granby and is clean, open, and very relaxed. I walked in with a lull in the line so I chatted with the staff about tea options. I've been trying tea lattes and was interested in the houjicha, since I had no idea how to pronounce it. As a roasted tea, I was immediately interested and skeptical The staff were super awesome and encouraged me to try it, saying I could get something else if I didn't like it. This is the type of service that makes me confident in what they're selling. So I ordered the houjicha and knew I'd like it. And I did!! It's an amazing full nutty flavor with the barest hint of matcha, if you know the taste. I am in love with the drink and desperately looking to see if anyone near me offers it too. Great location, exceptional service, and very chill vibe is what I remember and will come back for! read more

I was hoping this would be a great experience but it wasn't. I ordered second in a group of 7 people and got my latte last. When I asked where it was, I got a flippant response. The lady making the drinks was rude and just kind of pushed my latte at me. My latte was lukewarm, which is weird because it had just been made. For a $5.25 latte I expect way more. The ham and cheese croissant was mediocre at best. The ham was still cold even though the sandwich was supposed to be warm. The sandwich was also $5. To end my time there I found a gnat in my latte. Now I am not sure if this gnat was present when I got it or flew in after I started drinking. Nevertheless it didn't help my impression of this place. Overall I wouldn't recommend this place. High priced mediocre coffee and food. read more

Three Ships Coffee Roasters is located in the heart of downtown Norfolk. Right on Granby street that you can't miss it! I walked in the morning during a work week and it was quiet and empty. I did not have to think about parking but it looks like street parking only. This can be difficult depending on what time you decide to have a coffee run. I had the opportunity to walk around and take my time. The shop is aesthetically pleasing with a light up sign, spacious seating areas, and merchandise supporting local businesses. I ordered a Mocha Latte and my boyfriend had a Shot of Seashore State dbl. Honestly we were not fans of our drinks. Both drinks were very acidic and not enjoyable. I understand coffee is supposed to be a little acidic and maybe it's the coffee beans that Three Ships Coffee roasts but we were not used to it. Overall staff was nice and the ambience all met our expectations of a coffee shop. It would be a great place in the city to sit down and study! read more

This is Three Ships Coffee Roasters' (TSCR) third location, located on the corner of Granby and E Freemason Street. The staff member there told me that they had been open for four months already! Where does the time go?! This location has a completely different vibe than the Oceanfront location, but still beautiful. Oceanfront is dark and more beachy, while this one is much bigger (vertical-wise) with high ceilings, a brighter color palette and fits more with the city vibe. The seating is along the big, beautiful windows. I had just had lunch across the street and decided to pop in TSCR for a mid-afternoon pick me up and do some work. They seem to have the same menu items like small bites and sammies for a meal as their Oceanfront location. I got an iced mocha as that is my go-to. I requested it a little sweeter since I'm just a sweet person (har har har). She was super sweet about it (double har) and made it as requested. Coffee was strong, but chocolate was perfect! Some notes: - The baked goodies are kind of hidden behind merch by the cash and up against the wall at the service counter. I didn't even notice them until another patron asked if they had baked goodies, after I had already ordered, paid and sat down. I usually can get easily tempted when they are displayed front and center, so in this case, out of sight, out of mind. They might want to rethink that strategy and display the chips elsewhere. - You have direct, indoor access to Assembly NFK, which is a new co-working space (looks nice in there), so great access for those people working! Work and coffee, a natural combo. - Parking can be found on the street (can easily pay with Park Norfolk app - there are surcharges but it's convenient, but be careful, the zone around there maxes out at 2 hours. You can find more parking in the lot next to Grilled Cheese Bistro diagonally across the street on Granby, still managed by the city, but I don't think there is a max time at that lot. - they have wifi (interesting password, just ask haha) - love that they have wheelchair/stroller accessible entrance on E Freemason Street! Great addition to the downtown area of Norfolk! Stay safe, Friends! read more

I love the ships coffee. I was so excited when they opened their location in downtown Norfolk. This location has plenty of seating options for someone looking to study. Not anything big for groups to sit and chat, but if it's empty you can't try. I ordered a golden milk latte for the health benefits of turmeric, and it was delicious. If you like third wave coffee, and are willing to keep an open mind this place is for you. Coffee beans are roasted in another location, but they are Asian owned, and their roasts are truly inspiring. read more

Cool place, very light and modern ambience with floor to ceiling windows at the corner of Freemason Street and Granby street in Norfolk. I came in with 20 minutes to spare before closing time at 4pm on a Sunday. No food is served! So I got the flavor of the day - Sweet Potato Latte. Can't taste the sweet potato, am little disappointed. It was a small cup for a little over $7. At other coffee shops it would have been a larger size. Maybe they were getting ready to close in 20 minutes.... read more

Great taste to the coffee, really nice interior of the store and was clean, staff was very friendly too! However, there are not many flavor options for coffee. They had vanilla, mocha, and two seasonal flavors when I've gone but that was it. Never had caramel the 3 times I went. Coffee was GREAT despite the limited flavors though! read more

Tasty breakfast, creatively made coffee! The actual drink I ordered wasn't my favorite, but the roast is good and the vibe is great in here.

I ordered a small Pumpkin Spice Latte with almond milk. I ordered a small daily brew which was $3.90. My latte came out to be $9.26. Of course you feel compelled to tip so I tipped $1.10. My latte turned out to be a Peppermint mocha instead. I tasted it and it was so sour. Two coffees came out to be $14+ and I'm disappointed! read more

Shame on you guys. My boyfriend and I walked by here and stopped in to have a look, made the effort to return the next day. I order the *gluten free* burrito. When it was served to me they said again that it was gluten free! Well it wasn't!!!! I have celiac disease and have been violently ill all night. I am not a highly sensitive celiac and did not eat elsewhere today or the day prior so I am certain I was served a fully flour tortilla. I am also pregnant, and for the jerks in the kitchen who apparently don't give a crap about the medical effects of serving someone something they cannot consume, my ENTIRE body has an inflammatory response that has both long and short term effects. Diarrhea, brain fog, migraines, muscle pain, rashes. I'm furious. DO NOT OFFER WHAT YOU AREN'T WILLING TO DO. read more

Great friendly service. Coffee was fantastic. Plenty of seating. Overall a great experience!

Love the minimalistic vibes at this place and houjicha latte I got was really good as well. Was expecting to hear all the hustle and bustle going on outside since this place on Granby, but surprisingly the glass windows they have in this place work really well in mitigating any outside noise. Makes for a quiet ambiance where everyone can just enjoy their drinks, listen to some good music, and do their own thing on their laptop or just read. Would highly recommend this place! read more

I stopped in here on a whim as I'm on a never-ending quest to try local coffee roasters (yes it is an addiction, no I don't want help). I was walking down the street exploring Norfolk when I spotted this place, so of course I had to try it. I bought a bag of their Espresso Roast beans and a cup of their cold brew. They were both delightful! Now, anytime I'm in the area I'll stop in and grab a bag of beans, I really liked it! read more
