Retrograde Coffee Roasters

Busy but quick service cafe, staff was very friendly. I liked the labeled vegan options, nondairy milks being 50 cents more is good because it’s less than the usual 75 cents or $1. The matcha was very meh, if you’re a matcha enthusiast then it’s not worth ordering. Staff quick to confirm specialty drinks that are/are not vegan (ube latte drink Not vegan due to dairy cold foam) In total two vegan breakfast options, one vegan pastry option, and oat milk in the coffee bar area Updated from previous review on 2025-04-20

A homemade English muffin (which was perfect), a house made vegan patty, cheese and a basil puree made up the vegan breakfast sandwich. Was super tasty.m for 8.75. You could add a veggie sausage for 3.25 or avocado smash for 2.50. The pastry case had a clearly marked vegan chocolate chip cookie. Might also have to go back for the vegan pesto sandwich lunch special that was listed on the board. Lots of seating inside but was full up at 10 am.

Several sandwiches and baked items. Good coffee. Regrettably, most patrons are laptop "campers", parked for the day, not conversational. I know: an American thing.

Always on hunt for authentic short espresso shot. This place has tasty coffee and knows how to make a great shot! Served in ceramic with a sparkling water on a tray makes it extra special and priced right! Their chocolate chip cookie was great too!

Had breakfast sandwich and chocolate muffin, both great!

Friendly staff , delicious food , fantastic coffee

No more vegan doughnuts here :( The vegan breakfast sandwich is soooo good! I would charge $2 extra for the vegan sausage patty instead of 3 but it's very tasty and well put together!

Owner is wonderful, employees are so friendly, coffee is fantastic. Absolutely no complaints

I've always had a great experience at this coffee shop. The Beat latte and the Matcha latte are well done and not too sweet.

Retrograde feels like home but cooler.

I love grabbing an iced vanilla oat latte and heading out to their cute back patio to work with my service dog aura.

Their beans are top notch and thus far have the best coffee in the county for me.

I don't know what they put in their tofu breakfast sandwich, but that thing was killer. I'm here on vacation and going back tomorrow to have another. The coffee was great and so were the vibes.

Cool place and super location with nice Australian style strong cappuccinos
