It appears the rocket exploded.Unless there is wholesale renovations in progress with no sign of a mess, this place is dead.

Cutest shop in cville. Have given it many chances, but baristas unfortunately are not trained (burning/under steaming milk, pulling shots, etc.). Way overpriced for a subpar latte or cappuccino.

Great coffee, but most importantly, the coffee maker is a great person which makes the whole experience of making the order and having a coffee in this place, VERY pleasant. Make sure you talk to Tayna :) pura vida!

Knowingly improperly made my drink and were not going to tell me. Also, 3 days grace and papa roach, kinda agressive music choices first thing in the morning but that's personal choice.

Delicious coffee and great customer service. Try the French 75 if you like floral lattes.

The coffee here is decent - I wish the espresso flavor came through stronger, but it wasn’t bad. Paid $6 and some change for a signature latte with almond milk. The person at the register doesn’t wear a mask though and that makes me uncomfortable, didn’t wash his hands before making the drink either and he was eating before he made the drink. But if you don’t mind that, the iced lattes and latte flavors are pretty good.Atmosphere is quaint, not many tables or areas to eat, but a nice place to stop by for coffee if you’re getting some pastries at ABC bakery which is right next door.

Great coffee and bagels (plus greens/toppings), and a fun atmosphere with kind baristas. We enjoyed the cozy patio and the featured drink menu.

Spent a week in town and found this place the next to last day! This was the best latte I had all week. Kind and courteous staff. Stopped by on my way out of town for one more. Good bagels too.

Sunday morning delight! We stopped in on our way to brunch and grabbed a couple of wonderful espresso drinks. The guys in the shop were super friendly and we left with coffee and chocolate for later.

Kota our batista was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and was at ease when recommending drinks. Coffee intuition was on point. Very personable, and the coffee was excellent! We got, The Stern Pilgrim and the milky way! Would recommend to anyone visiting Charlottesville! Mention sonichu for a *discount*!!!

Everywhere I travel I try the local coffee shops. To date I have only found one better than my local shop, until today. Rocket Coffee's espresso latte is incredible. Highly recommend.
