Rock City Café - Rockland

I stopped by to purchase a bag of coffee beans (not ground) to have at home. I can only comment on the coffee, and it was amazing! The bag of beans was excellent, with a bright and flavorful taste that I really enjoyed. It made a delicious cup of coffee using my Aeropress at home. I will definitely return for more beans and am interested in trying the food as well, as the kitchen seemed very knowledgeable. Just a heads up, you get a free 8 oz. coffee when you purchase a bag of beans.

The best coffee I’ve ever had! The staff were extremely kind. We also ordered some of their breakfast burritos and they were delicious too! Will definitely be back next time we are in the area!

Absolutely horrendous experience. Would never go back. They kept on screaming out 30 to 40 minute Wait on food. Then I finally said something and they said that they didn't even have my ticket. Then they said they'd make it right away but they didn't have the right bread that is advertised for the sandwich. They also lost my ticket for my coffee so that took 25 minutes to get. So then I decided to get a refund and they didn't even offer any gesture of good faith. Keep in mind that this was for one sandwich and one coffee as a to-go order. Do not go to this place unless you want to wait forever and maybe not get your food or drink because their ticketing system is not reliable. Or make sure you confirm with the staff that they received your order within 5 minutes of ordering and then again every other 5 minutes.

Delicious coffee and food!!! Busy place at 10am but definitely worth the wait. Gingerbread iced latte was incredible and hubby's maple coffee was yummy! Bit on the pricey side but absolutely worth the price.

The mysterious high marks this place receives are baffling. The interior is attractive with its high ceilings and various seating options, but waiting in line for over ten minutes just to order coffee is unacceptable. Despite having plenty of staff, only one person takes orders, leading to long waits and often a depleted baked goods cabinet. The final straw was being given the wrong pastry and not even receiving an apology when trying to exchange it. It is rare to find a worker cleaning tables, and there are thankfully other options available in Rockland. It is unfortunate that this establishment has declined in quality over the past few years. Some customers have criticized the staff for adhering to certain ideologies, making it necessary to discuss with children why some men appear feminine.
