Solid Coffee Roasters - Artesia — Restaurant in Artesia

Hey, can you do me a solid? Can you take me to Solid Coffee Roasters for some caffeine love?

Occupying the former location of a dingy dive bar, Solid Coffee Roasters is the first café in the local area who roasts their own beans. After attending a Sunday morning meditation, having a cold brew sounded good on an almost 100 degree day.

Free refills are offered for house brewed coffee & cold brew. Unfortunately, nitro cold brew is not included.

Cold brew- Yup, that hits the spot, alright! The cold brew was strong, slightly acidic & chocked full of caffeine buzz. Normally, I go for nitro cold brew, as I enjoy the effervescence from "coffee beer", but seeing how non-nitro cold brew has free refills, I went for quantity. I was told the coffee used for cold brew comes from single origin Brazilian coffee beans. I took advantage, maybe too much, and had 2 refills in about 10 minutes. Needless to say, I was buzzing the whole day, afterwards.

Looking for a bite to eat, to go along with your drink? Solid has you covered! Various sandwiches, hand pies, scones & avocado toast are amongst the items available to choose from. I was tempted to purchase the coddle me solid, which seemed to me a deconstructed eggs benedict in a jar.

Service was good. The staff were friendly & quick with drinks. A good amount of seating, with a long booth against the left wall w/ chairs. 3 communal tables by the entrance & by the register line. Be forewarned - customers tend to camp out at Solid Coffee Roasters, plugging in their laptops and concentrating on work or pretending to work. So, finding seating can be difficult, depending upon when you go.

Parking is in a private lot at the NS Plaza. Solid Coffee Roasters is located adjacent to DJ Bibingkahan Filipino Restaurant.

Time for a coffee break! Solid Coffee Roasters is a solid addition for locals in Artesia & the surrounding area. The coffee's on point & you can definitely taste the difference between coffee roasted miles away & coffee roasted minutes ago. For my next visit, I'm going straight for the coddle me solid and, perhaps, the red latte.

Highly...

Immediately welcomed by refreshing air-conditioning and a friendly hello from Jason, I really enjoyed the ambience Solid had to offer.

I ordered a cappuccino for here, which was given to me in a ceramic cup and saucer — ten times more enjoyable than sipping indoors with a to-go plastic cup. The other barista, I don’t know his name, served me my drink when it was ready and had excellent table service.

As I sat and sipped while studying for the dental boards exam, I really enjoyed the pace, service, and drinks made by Jason and the other guy. I loved the teamwork these two had in providing a relaxing, well-deserved coffee experience.

I’ve been here before but this time the ambience was enjoyable with the great service and drinks along with the refreshing air conditioning on a hot summers day. I really enjoy the taste of coffee with the mug and plate. It’s more European style and my type of coffee culture.

Altogether, give this place a try and leave with a warm smile...

Located between South Street and Norwalk Blvd. was bit of a challenge since traveling west on South Street, you have to make an immediate right to drive into the shopping center. The store is located near the back left side of the shopping center. Parking was ample.

I ordered a Honey Lavender Latte iced drink. A good tasty drink, with no sugar, the honey made it worthwhile, because it complimented the blend of lavender and the kick of caffeine just right.

There quite a crowd already seated, spreas out, and enjoying their drinks when I arrived. As I was seated down waiting for my order, the barista actually came to hand me the drink in person, which I thought was very cool.

The atmosphere was not so overly loud, despite the amount of people chatting around me. It was relaxing and enjoyable.

If you're up for something cozy and different....
