Solo Brew & Roasters — Restaurant in Apple Valley

Possibly the last roaster in the High Desert, and maybe the only place remaining where the coffee tastes like coffee.

All the syrups and flavors are made in-house. There is a rotating monthly menu of flavored lattes and teas where the advantage of this really shines through.

If you take your coffee a less sweet, they will happily accommodate you, just ask. Otherwise the lattes are on the sweeter side.

The baked goods are delightful when they're available. I recommend the vegan cinnamon roll. They sell out fast, though. And a word of caution, this place is run by exactly two people making your drink to order, in the mornings on the weekends expect a line and go in with...

I had a maple salt latte and my wife had the peanut butter latte. I liked the maple better but both were very good. My only gripe was that the large hot coffee is only 12 oz. That’s just me though because I love my coffee. The prices are fair at $6 for a large hot coffee. There are also plenty of pastries with most being vegan options so there is something for everyone.
