The fine folks at The Salt Lake Roasting Co. are serious about their coffee: their beans (roasted onsite daily), blends and flavors from around the world total more than 50 varieties. The coffeehouse itself is also impressive, with two stories adorned with old-fashioned scales, burlap sacks and maps of coffee-growing countries. The Salt Lake Roasting Co. also serves pastries and desserts such as fruitcake, pies and flan. A well-rounded meal can even be ordered, with menu items such as veggie tacos, curry rice, soups and deli sandwiches. Black, green and herbal loose-leaf teas are also available.
No alcohol available. Serving breakfast Mon–Sat, lunch daily, early dinner Mon–Thu.
"In a town where you'd think coffee shops have no future, it turns out they have quite a past. At least 20 years of a past at the Salt Lake Roasting Company, the venture that basically kicked off the city's modern-day coffee house movement."
