39 Best Coffee Shops in Lancaster

“This coffee shop is absolutely fantastic!!! I ordered a cappuccino - the espresso was delicious and the milk was frothed perfectly. My friend got a cold brew. Both of out coffees were incredible and we were very impressed with the space. The service was outstanding as well! We will be returning, and i highly recommend you try it too!“

“The best pie I've ever had!“

“Hands down the best, really handcrafted coffee I've had in a VERY long time. The guy running the show recommended trying the house chai, and I was blown away. I didn't know chai could be that good. Also had a cappuccino, and I was just as impressed. The owner(?) was super friendly, helpful, and kind with everything. It's a bit off the beaten track if you're driving, but I recommend finding this place and stopping in!“

“Had wonderful coffee and a delicious wrap! Would highly recommend 🌻🌻🌻“

“Love the staff, drinks, & pastries. Great hours. Nice atmosphere. Free Parking! What isn’t there to like!!!“

“Caramel latte was 100/10. Go birds 🦅“

“Amazing CBD coffee!“

“Today was my first time at Freshly Greek and I will definitely be back! The food was incredibly tasty with fresh ingredients. The pita and souvlaki chicken were out of this world! What a great local gem. I’m excited to try other items on their menu as well. The owner/manager stopped by our table and was very friendly. He said he grows his own herbs right outside - you don’t get fresher than that! Great job to all - my experience was exceptional. Keep it up!“

“Made an online order , drive thru line was a bit long so decided to go inside. Requested to switch the drink I had ordered, went to pick up and informed the very nice worker (Jake) and he just let me keep the other drink I ordered. Super nice and welcoming :)“

“Finally, I tried this spot! Since you cannot go inside, I ordered online in lieu of waiting at the drive thru widow. I left special notes in the comments section on how I wanted my drinks made, and they catered to that! I was disappointed that the peanut butter was a syrup flavor and not the real deal, so my (hot) latte didn't taste anything like I imagined, but still good. I also ordered an almond joy latte (hot) for my mother, who said it was good. Both of our drinks had a lot of grounds/powder at the bottom and tasted burnt about 3/4 of the way through, so we didn't finish them. I'll be giving another try in the near future.

Parking: Drive thru only.“

“This little coffee shop is so cute! I did not get any food. I ordered an iced matcha, she made a hot matcha instead. I told her it was okay, but she insisted on making my iced matcha and let me keep both. She is so sweet and kind. We need more people like her in the world.“

“Best coffee and wonderful service!“

“Atmosphere was cute AND cozy, AND the coffee was very good“

“Best doughnuts I ever had! Turtle cheesecake is a must try!“

“The friendliest staff and best crepes around. Outdoor dining in the winter is fabulous with the new heaters. Indoor dining is always wonderful.“

“Great place to have a nice cup of coffee and a fine sandwich. Very nice atmosphere.“

“I'm not a coffee drinker, but my husband is. He always enjoyed the coffee when we stayed in Lancaster. We haven't been able to stay in Lancaster since his stroke. I thought I'd bring Lancaster to him and ordered pods, beans and ground coffee online. They did not disappoint. The coffee was fresh and he was thrilled. I will continue to order from Lancaster coffee roasters. And hope someday we will have the opportunity to stay out there again.“

“My Girlfriend recently lost her promise rings here in the bathroom. We didn't notice till we got home and of course they were closed, i called the next day and they said they kept them and that i could pick up any day and time. Amazing Service and great hospitality!“

“Thank you for honoring first responders for the month of December! I’m a mental health clinician on the front lines helping people especially now during this pandemic, and it means a lot to be thought of!! A cup of coffee goes a long way ☕️ Staff were kind and service was excellent!!“

“The Jamaican Me Crazy is delicious!!!“

“Great food! Great drinks! Wonderful people! Like hanging out with friends! Food is fresh and filling! Drinks are served hot and fabulous enough to please picky teenagers! Highly recommend! Can’t wait to return!“

“The employees are super friendly and fast. I am constantly working and on the phone and they know what I want and are able to put my order together seamlessly. Thanks all! Maybe instead of the Starbucks CEO or Stock Holders getting a raise they should help the people that make there company successful a decent wage.“

“I got turned on to your coffee from my son who lives in Lancaster every time we visit we stock up. However when I start to run out I order directly online since I live 4 hours away. LoVe LovE lOvE your coffees!“

“Whenever I get to Lancaster I hit Rolled Cold Creamery. And once again they created me an edible work of art. It was a cheese cake strawberry masterpiece.
Beautiful and delicious as usual.
These young ladies do incredible work.

“Thank you so much for offering vegan cupcakes! Due to this, my first grade daughter was able to take in a treat to celebrate her birthday! The birthday treats need to be store bought, and it is so hard to find something fun and vegan. The entire class loved the cupcakes! My daughter said "this was the best school birthday yet!"“

“Great food! Great drinks! Wonderful people! Like hanging out with friends! Food is fresh and filling! Drinks are served hot and fabulous enough to please picky teenagers! Highly recommend! Can’t wait to return!“

“Fabulous cream cheese bialys! Better than I can find in NY.“

“They were Very helpful and kind. I loved how they had 6 different sugar free flavors- 3 of them are made in-house (sweetener is sucralose). I had the pumpkin which was very good and didn’t have that sickly sweet tang that some sf flavors have. They were also very accommodating with making a bread less sausage, egg, and cheese sandwich.- they also have a few salads but I didn’t try them. This place is Keto, sf, diabetic friendly.
Very quiet and peaceful when I was there. A little small for big groups.“

“Decent. Would give a 3 on value and 4 on flavor. Leaned high on rating because they have a bologna breakfast sandwhich - I'm a sucker for anything overtly PA Dutch that reminds me of my childhood. Pretty sure this is a sour dough bagel, based on taste. Not technically NY/NJ style if that sorta thing matters to you. Still a darn good bagel, but on the smaller and pricier side.“

“I dropped by for a quick bite to eat before a work conference and was pleasantly surprised! My bagel was delicious, and the coffee was excellent. After years of having so much burnt espresso it made my day to finally have a properly pulled shot of espresso in my latte. The service was great, the young lady who took my order told me all about some great historic landmarks to check out while I’m in the area and made me feel so welcomed to Lancaster.

Make sure to stop in for a bite to eat and quick caffeine hit, you’ll be glad you did!“

“Splits & Giggles is one of our favorite things about living in Lancaster. Delicious ice cream, pleasant and efficient staff, and the lovely outdoor patio. Owner Dave recently brought the ice cream cart to our gathering of family and friends and everyone raved. Thank you Dave and staff!“

“Great location, but just can be a bit busy!! We've come here multiple times and it's a convenient spot right at the mall. The quality of the food and drinks are just like the others - very good and delicious. Service is good as well.The main complaint is that it can be a bit busy and it's small inside. The last time we went, there was one cashier and we waited in line about 5 minutes before ordering. But despite this, it's a nice location overall!

Vegetarian options: Most drinks are vegetarian, and many of the food items are.

Dietary restrictions: They have almond milk and oak milk I think

Parking: There's a large parking lot at the mall. It can get busy but hopefully you'll find a spot even if it's farther away.

Kid-friendliness: Good for kids overall

Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs!“

“Passion Grape Slush. Eliminate any FOMO and grab a KFT! The drink was delivered with an actual seal to protect any tampering. The packaging was on point. Most importantly: the taste. AMAZING! No “brain freeze”. Tastes like the ordered flavor not just sugar syrup. This is my new “go-to” for a good day, cure a bad day, holiday, celebrate life everyday!!!! KFT!!!!“

“Guy at the counter was a little pushy when asking to pay for just a simple cappuccino and a decent place to sit to work on my computer. I could tell he was agitated about something else. The service from the ladies was great and accommodating, and the cappuccino was pretty decent. Overall good.“

“Best banana nut bread ever! Staff is super friendly and nice. Service was amazing. Setup of shop is nice. Really clean facility!“

“I love this place! Great coffee, really good soups. Staff is very pleasant and friendly. Laid back atmosphere.“

“Love this place. Donuts are the main thing they sell. Donuts are made right there, fresh and warm. Various flavors, from maple bacon, French toast; cinnamon sugar, lemonade, strawberry cheesecake, classic flavors you ask, and you will find it and more. They also have hot and cold drinks like frape, cappuccino, latte, smooties, coffee, and other flavorful things. Love love much love. 100% recommend!♥️“

“This is our local Starbucks and we are here at least twice a week. The service is outstanding and the drinks are always the best here. The employees are so friendly and thoughtful and it's always a great experience coming here. One star for atmosphere because whoever came through within the past week (2nd week of January 2025) and cleared out their decor really ruined the atmosphere. We went yesterday and thought they were closing because it's so sterile and barren in there now.“
