Roots Coffee Salt Lake City — Restaurant in Salt Lake City

Roots Coffee in Salt Lake City is awesome! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome. They were cheerful, engaged, and went out of their way to chat with my kiddos, which made the experience extra special.

They crafted the perfect peppermint Horchata latte and caramel steamed milk for the little ones—just the right balance of sweet and cozy. While we settled into the charming upstairs area, the staff surprised us with a thoughtful touch: complimentary blueberry muffins for the girls! It was such a kind and unexpected gesture that truly set this place apart.

Upstairs, there’s a cozy outdoor patio with plenty of seating, perfect for enjoying your coffee with a view. Inside, the space has lots of seating options, from tables to couches. They’ve also equipped the space with plenty of plugs and free Wi-Fi, making it ideal for working, studying, or just relaxing.

The areas are clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully run, including spotless bathrooms—always a bonus. The location is great, and their hours (open until 6 PM!) are perfect for those of us who aren’t early risers but still crave a quality coffee experience later in the day.

Roots Coffee is more than just a coffee shop; it’s a place that genuinely cares about its customers-definitely a place to visit...

Bluntly, go to this incredible spot! My friend and I were just visiting the area and were in desperate need of coffee after our flight landed. Gina is so sweet and friendly that we felt like we were friends. This shop should be the goal of a coffee shop: a friendly barista/owner who remembers your name when you walk in the door, incredible coffee and tea, and a cute space to do work or meet with friends. The decor is minimalistic and modern which also seems so inviting at the same time. This is a small touch, but the chocolate covered coffee beans that are put on top of the cup are SO good. Gina was training a new barista this morning and she taught them with such a tender heart. She was patient, understanding, and positive with this employee which made me even happier that we were supporting the company. We went three times in the span of 7 days if that tells you how much we loved this shop! If I ever come back to this area, I will definitely have to come back to Roots Coffee...

I am absolutely in shock over the experience I just had at this coffee shop. Avoid this place at all costs. I recently transferred locations at my job and am new to working in the area. I decided to try a new coffee shop as I will be in the area often and need my caffeine to survive. I picked this shop as it was the closest to my work and figured it could be my new coffee place. I will NEVER go back and frankly will inform anyone who mentions it of my experience. A barista with purple hair and a septum piercing was so rude and cruel to me that I left the shop crying. She started closing everyone up at 5:20pm even though the hours on the building clearly state that they don’t close until 6pm after she literally kicked me out of my chair she proceeded to stack the chairs and she topped it off by making a cruel comment toward me. Absolutely disgusting. Don’t go here. The quality of the coffee wasn’t worth...
