517 Coffee Company

The 517 Coffee Company is absolutely fantastic! They recently serviced and cleaned our espresso machine, and the experience was top-notch. James was incredibly kind and took the time to explain everything in great detail, helping us understand our machine so much better. We are starting a coffee catering company and could not be happier that we chose them as our roaster.

We also had the opportunity to do a barista training session a while back with Vincent, and it was beyond helpful. Whether you're looking for roaster needs, machine maintenance, or just a fun and informative training session, I can't recommend The 517 Coffee Company enough. Their training is perfect for a date night or for anyone who wants to learn more about espresso.

In addition to all of this, they are committed to social responsibility and community support. They actively stand up for what's right by creating a safe and affirming space. Check out their socials to see more about their activism because it is truly impressive for a small business to give back as much as they do!!

10/10 experience!

Beautiful small coffee shop. I love the idea and practice of sustainably resourced coffee that positively affects the communities involved. I bought a bag here and a cup of their Guatemalan kind. It was flawless and delicious. At the price you pay it's well worth it than some peppermint drizzle vente grande sugar snap latte. I will revisit to get more coffee and they have a subscription that I will take part in too so I can get real coffee. Love it, inclusive, you won't be disappointed, grab a cup, grab a bag, enjoy.

Extremely friendly staff and DELICIOUS coffee. My partner loves the different coffee bean bag flavors/origins available for purchase. He learned that he loved the undertones of fermented coffee beans and is excited to be able to support local while still enjoying ~fancy~ coffee at home. Black coffee or frou-frou coffee, you won't be disappointed!

Very knowledgeable, generous and friendly staff! Prices for a pour-over style coffee are very reasonable for a local small business ($2.49 for a single cup). I wanted to learn a bit about the roasts and the staff were more than friendly in showing some beans, offering a smell and look at a few different roasts, and had great recommendations. Beans are a bit pricey, but are roasted weekly so they are extremely fresh.

Best coffee on Lansing

Love supporting local businesses. I had a quad vanilla latte and it was delicious. Silky smooth espresso just a hint of vanilla, so stinking good. Go support this coffee shop!

I could give a 10 minute speech about why 517 is an incredible establishment! But I'll keep it (somewhat) short by saying that you will not be disappointed by this place. The coffee & homemade syrups are phenomenal. They put so much time & effort into perfectly curating the seasonal drinks to be delicious and different from other places, while also having the traditional options that everyone loves. The owner & employees there are the coolest, most down to Earth, and fun people. It feels like each time I go in there, we end up in a conversation about Lansing and how we believe so strongly in the potential, schools, and people here (but don't worry introverts, they are also just as happy to make your coffee in silence! lol). They're just genuinely good people that happen to be excellent at their trade. Lastly, their prices are very reasonable and they have a great points system! I am SO thankful that they decided to bless South Lansing with their business.
