50 Best Coffee Shops near Lancaster

“Support your local coffee joint! Good vibes and delicious drinks 😊“

“I know that there’s a lot of places in Lancaster to choose for your morning breakfast, but can I suggest Pallet Cafe?! I have been to every small café in the area and this place blew me away! I got the Teddy Graham iced coffee, and the Caprese avocado toast. Absolutely incredible. The coffee actually tasted like the description and the Caprese avocado toast was delicious and so flavorful! This has by far been my favorite (& cheapest) breakfast spot! It’s also so cozy in there and reminds me of going to eat at my Mimi’s house. I don’t know the owners, they didn’t tell me to post this. I just want them to get the recognition that they deserve. 🫶🏻“

“I have visited several Tim Hoton shops, and I have never been disappointed. Coffee was good, breakfast sandwich was warm and fresh. We also got timbits. They were soft, fresh, and delicious. Their donuts look so good, and they are always fresh. We will continue visiting their shops. Tim Hortons prices are great.“

“It's really nice to see the same friendly faces every morning when picking up my coffee. This morning I had to go into work a bit later than normal and Joelle at the drive thru greeted me with an "I was worried, you're later than usual". This to me says that they truly care about their customers. I don't know of any other coffee shop that employs such friendly, caring people around here. I've been to other Tim Hortons locations but this one, by far, is my favorite.“

“Good and nice people work here! Can be a tough location with traffic at times. My one and only complaint/ gripe is simple and is Tim’s generic for all locations. I have not had a good breakfast biscuit for about 6 years now! Those things always disintegrate at first bite and its crumbs all over the place- usually my car. I end up not eating a sandwich but pieces of egg/ bacon / crumbs off my lap. Can you please get some decent biscuits!“

“Friendliest staff I have encountered ANYWHERE in the last year. Went through the drive-thru, we had questions about the new winter drinks and snacks. Woman on headset taking the order was kind, patient and knowledgeable (I think she had brown hair, slender and glasses- we saw someone with a headset taking orders when we pulled up to the window and I think she waved when we got to the window. But could have been changing/ removing gloves. May or may not be the person who took our order) They were busy for lunch time but didn’t make me feel rushed. At the window, a different woman, (short, glasses and short blonde/platinum hair) was so kind and friendly. Talked to us briefly while the last drink was being made and told me how much she really enjoys the new ginger bread chai latte. Honestly, just a ray of sunshine. To the woman on the headset that recommended the new hot cocoa muffin, it was amazing and we will be back! I’m so glad we got 2 instead of one! Thank you for the exceptional service at this location. We will make the trip to this location instead of the one near our house because of the service, care and patience you provided today. I hope your managers see this and you get the recognition you deserve. I would hire you both in a minute at the restaurant I manage.“

“The best coffee/menu, plus they have the biggest hearts and are always giving back to their community!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼“

“Maple Latte with cinnamon is literally the best coffee I’ve ever had!! Love this place ☕️“

“Our daughter’s 50th birthday tea party was everything she hoped for, and we planned for during the last month. Her choices at Ginger Snap Patisserie catering we couldn’t have been happier. The food and service Sara and Cassidy provided was perfect and truly special. Affordable for how good of quality they are. The process was easy to order, and it was ready exactly when they said it would be! Thank you to the catering staff!“

“Beautiful shop and delicious food and coffee! My favorite is the ceasar salad 🥗 and any of the lattes!“

“This has been a unique and truly great coffee shop for at least the last twenty years, not least because the delightful manager Michelle is excellent at her job. For coffee lovers and those who enjoy a wonderful, esoteric setting, this place truly is worth a significant detour to visit.“

“Buffalo Starbucks is now union strong! Producing your first, heroes leading by example.“

“I love Cup of Communitea. Love the environment.Justine is super sweet, kind and very informative about all the teas. I stopped in today and purchased a blueberry violet lemonade. It was the best! My boys loved it too! ❤️“

“I stopped on a whim as I'm not normally in that area. Staff was pleasant. Prices were fantastic. The coffee, omg, so smooth. While waiting I grabbed some Kcups for home. The coffee is so smooth and delightful. I haven't had a bad cup yet. Looks like I'll be making the drive more often.“

“I used to love their Spicy Tuna Wrap. It changed this past year. They used to put a lot more tuna but now it is almost veggie sandwich with a cheese. I tried a couple times thinking maybe the person who prepared couldn’t make good but no! They changed it and today was my last visit to spot coffee!“

“First timer at the one near Larkin. Everything was delicious and service was great. Will definitely be back!!! 😊♥️“

“The best chocolate ever!“

“Healthy & Delicious shakes, teas, and tasty treats too!“

“They are great, fast and always have what you order!! The one at Harlem and Genesee never have those hash browns! What is their problem??“

“I went into the West Seneca Spot coffee today 12/19/2023. Wasn’t in the best of moods. Ordered a mocha hot coffee and lemon bar. The manager I believe his name is Dave took my order and started making my coffee. Maddie packaged up my lemon bar. I’m telling you, both Dave and Maddie were very professional, kind and efficient. We started talking and wow, what a couple of positive, kind and caring people they were. It was so refreshing and uplifting. By the time I left I was in a great mood, happy, felt positive and thought I had just made friends with two of the nicest people I have come across in forever! Both had smiles on their faces. It was wonderful to see two happy individuals at work. Thank you both for being so kind and caring! I will definitely be stopping in for another pick me up date! 😉 The mocha coffee and lemon bar were out of this world! Highly recommend both and highly recommended stopping into Spot coffee in West Seneca!“

“Stopped in for the first time today, great food, very friendly people, all at a great price!“

“Fast take out service and friendly employees. Excellent Fish Fry, Fries, side of Pasta, and other co-side items plus the Fettuccine Alfredo with Chicken and Shrimp was excellent and two meals for meal which includes 2 pieces of bread and butter. Will come back again and recommended!“

“The associates are awesome! Food is good...!!“

“I would drive a hundred miles for her.“

“We were searching for a homestyle diner and this did not disappoint ! Might have had the best breakfast I've ever had in my life. We're canadian and I ordered the Country Benny and my boyfriend got the Country fried steak and eggs. The gravy is delicious and the home fries were perfect ! We ate every last bit and would 100 percent recommend this place ! Sarah was a fabulous server! Thank you“

“X-tra large dark roast shot of espresso ❤ 😎“

“Most of the time this is an excellent location.Today was another story. Saturday morning at 10:30 am and they are out of hash browns, sausage and bacon .There are 6 people working here right now..Why is someone not cooking and staying on top of this..Very disappointing as far as breakfast goes!!!“

“Awesome 👍😎. coffee and 🥝 Its the best“

“THE BEST ICED COFFEE IN WNY IS AT DUNKIN' DONUTS!!!!! �����“

“Our favorite place to unwind!! We try to come weekly, whether it be for just some wine and cocktails, their exceptional desserts, or a light meal, if one of suggests mambrino, the other will always say yes! The servers and bartenders are all excellent and extremely personable. I would suggest checking it out, but then you might sit on the couch, and that’s where we like to sit!! Either way, go check it out! I can share. 😂“

“Convenient place to stop for a coffee and breakfast sandwich. They also serve hot and cold lattes, hot tea and delicious cold brew coffee. Depending on the time of day, there can be a long line at the drive thru. However, service is always good and they treat their customers well.“

“They keep the drive-thru moving!“

“The best dark roast coffee! Today used my stars for Kamodo Dragon!!!“

“The girls who work at this Starbucks are super sweet and very friendly!! They always go above and beyond to make conversations with the customers, and overall deliver amazing service. The only downside of this location is that the seating arrangement is a little awkward with the traffic of people coming into Target. It would be nice if it felt a little more secluded, but I understand that there is only so much you can do with that space. Regardless, I’ve had many great experiences at this location!“

“Love the coffee.. But I also love the employees here. Everybody is so nice.. Thank you all for your great service.“

“Such great service at the Williamsville, NY location.“

“Thank you to the kind person/employee that turned in my purse to the office. It’s great to know there are still kind and honest people in this world! It made my error in judgement a bit more bearable. Much appreciated! 😊“

“The drinks and food are always amazing. They are always super quick and super friendly!! Very professional and a great atmosphere. I really enjoyed the service from Gianna and Brianna and Jack. They were the highlight of my day. Ps. Bring back the Turkey Sage please (it was my favorite).“

“Great coffee place and bakery has become pretty excellent too. My only ding is that I grew up in the area and prior to COVID all Tim Hortons were open 24 hours and it was incredible. Now they close closer to 10pm and open at 6am. Understandable but sad.“

“This particular Tims on Union road in cheektowaga near Walden Ave has an amazing team I've come too know going through multiple times a day first with my Pittie Emma after the loss of her continuing to come through now with my new pittie mix 🐻 bear.. Super friendly and outgoing even on bad days or busy ones .. I run my own business and have managed many big places , just know you have good people here , earning an honest living with great attitudes with clientele. This is my favorite Tims too frequent.“

“I hit the drive thru while a friend was having surgery at the Millard Fillmore Surgery Center.My coffee was excellent! As is usual for ALL Tim Horton locations that I have been to - the coffee tastes perfect, is just the right temperature to drink and the service at the window outstanding.“

“I love this Starbucks. I live and work downtown so I'm a regular here and Cierra and the crew - Jaylin, Sarah, Tiara, Noman, Anjaya and everyone else, they always welcome me with a big smile and hello. They tend to remember your order, or they're willing to recommend something new on the menu if they think you might like it. Since it's in a hotel, it can get busy at times but they're efficient and power through the busy times to get orders out.“

“Great coffee Great service and food“

“JRTH: Best Tim's staff around!“

“The service was outstanding! The new Mango “something “ refresher was the best!“

“This is my go-to Starbucks. The staff here gets my order right every single time, they're warm and friendly and very nice. I have been to many locations in WNY and I just prefer this one overall. The prices have gotten a bit out of control, but that's not the fault of the employees.

Dietary restrictions: I'm lactose intolerant, they have many other dairy-free options for people like me. If you inform them that you have a specific food allergy they'll do their best to make sure your order doesn't come into contact with the items you're allergic to.

Parking: It's a large, open parking lot with plenty of parking available. Just be careful about the people coming out of the drive thru!

Wheelchair accessibility: It's very easy to get in and/or out of the building with any kind of assistive devices for walking. No problem.“

“The 2 men working the drive thru window today (4/27/24 at 11:50am) were extremely kind. There were ducks next to the window that my daughter in the car was waving to, the gentleman working noticed and he came to the window with safe snacks to feed the ducks that my daughter would be able to give them. Now for a 7 year old… that brightened her whole day! They were fast, food was excellent, and the customer service was a 10/10! This location is the best!!“

“Good coffee but they need better deals. McDonalds across the street does 1.79 Large Ice Coffee. Capitalism means competing not living in price denial and charging $3 for the same product. You'd think Tim Hortons would be more aware that they are losing a price war and profit as coffee costs 50 cents a cup with labor included.“

“Went inside, was greeted right away by an older lady very nice and attentive. I ordered blueberry timbits she started a conversation telling me they are her favorite not everywhere has them, it’s owners choice. Great customer service from the group of ladies working at 3pm today! Good employees need to be acknowledged too.“
