Mzizi Coffee Roaster — Restaurant in Roswell

Mzizi is the absolute definition of "exceptional". I had the absolute pleasure of experiencing this place for the very first time on the morning of my wedding day, when let me tell you absolutely nothing was going right, and stress was at an all-time high. I had last minute alternations, missing shoes, missing groomsmen... but sitting down for 5 minutes to enjoy a coffee in this incredibly relaxing atmosphere was exactly what I needed.

From the second I walked in the door, Hasan resonated an aura of peace and welcome, saying "I see you brother, welcome." His calming and joyous demeanor was contagious. He is a genuinely caring, generous, and nice person. We spent a couple extra minutes talking about latte art, beans, his homeland. It was a wonderful way to easy my mind on an otherwise difficult morning.

Mzizi is also situated in a prime location, where almost no luxury cafe exists as a substitute. I lived in Marietta (on Mabry road mind you) on and off for over 20 years, and, let me tell you, I can't believe I missed this place for all this time haha. But, they say timing is everything, and I found it just when I needed it most, so cheers to that.

Their coffee and beans are also delicious. I was gifted some of their beans, and they are some of the best tasting espresso beans I have had, and I have tried many many beans.

I can't recommend this place enough. It's the prime coffee spot in this area, hands down.

It was my absolute pleasure to have met you, Hasan. Thanks for your generosity and love. Never...

Best little coffee shop in East Cobb! Come into Mzizi Coffee Roasters for the best coffee! You'll be greeted by the owner Hassane with a warm and welcoming smile and he will prepare a cup of your favorite beverage just for you and he will prepare it with love. Such a Joy to visit this shop, featuring coffee he roasted himself. I didn't try any of the sweet treats, though they looked amazing and I do believe I'll have to get back there soon for some Tiramisu! A nice, simple menu, oh and did I mention he makes his own syrups for the flavored varieties? I was quite impressed by this shop and so happy to see that all of his customers know him. Feels like a small town place with your local friends. Give it a try and you won't be...

Very disappointed. I am always on the look out for small, independent coffee shops as I prefer them over the big chain stores whenever possible. So I was super excited about Mzizi. However, it didn’t come close to delivering.

I asked for an iced chai (my favorite) and they used the weak Tazo box you can get at the grocery store for $3 and just added milk. It made a very weak drink that then cost me over $6. Then, they had no pastries, even though it was Friday afternoon, and even though the reviews rave about their almond covered pastries. Lastly, the place was dirty, with the bathroom in particular being filthy (stained toilet, trash on the ground, dirty sink).

I had very high hopes but I don’t think we’ll...
