I absolutely love Negash coffee. The first time I went in there I was just starting with grinding my own beans and was lucky enough to run into one of the owners. The guy was super helpful and patient, recommending the espresso beans as a good starting bean and even going so far as to let us have a quick peek at their roasting machine in the back! He even offered his business card if I ever wanted to do a coffee tasting. The employees I've run into seem really friendly as well, as the last time I was in I asked the barista for a recommendation for beans that would be great in cold brew and got a fantastic recommendation.
To this date Negash is my go to for buying beans. Their espresso beans are fantastic in a moka pot and their safari blend is really good in a french press. While I regret not taking the young gentleman up on his offer for the coffee tasting, that hasn't stopped me from buying a different type of bean every time I go in. If you're in the area and looking for a good cup of coffee, looking for good beans or even looking to get into coffee then...

Hurts to put three stars to this place as I have been a customer now almost since they opened their doors.

Cons: Selection of beans steadily getting worse (don't fall in love with a particular blend, keep an open palate), had the stalest and most expensive... was it banana bread or a scone? Brewed coffee is priced well but I can't in good conscious tip someone for a simple drip brewed coffee but I also don't want to not show some gratuity, but the coffee is also not as good as home brew.

My review for this coffee if I could give it 10 stars I would ! It was the best coffee I have ever tasted. Soooo full of flavour not bitter at all. I got the medium roast as a sample. I loved it so much I bought myself a bag. Another good thing about this coffee is it's so many health benefits to it. I really like that aspect. It's also very affordable in price and on the bonus like I said I am supporting a local business which is better then supporting a huge coffee chain.
Thank you Adam for the wonderful coffee...
