Ironclad Coffee Roasters & Baking Co.

Incredible coffee house in an old fire house, with tons of charm, delicious and unique coffee creations and friendly service. Great seating choices both in and outdoors. Went here multiple days in a row on a visit to Richmond!

My favorite coffee spot in Richmond ☕️

We visited the Lynchburg location yesterday. We saw an ad for Tiny Tot Tuesday and wanted to check it out. I enjoyed a delicious pumpkin latte while my babies enjoyed their snacks and goodie bag. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!!

Yum!! Cozy place, along with our beverages we really enjoyed the breakfast sandwiches and pastries (baked in-house). Had trouble finding the food menus on web while waiting in line so posting here!

If you are new to Richmond - let me tell you now - this is your new coffee stop. The vibes are absolutely immaculate, the coffee is consistant, and the bakery/food items DELICIOUS 👏🏻 if I could give 10 stars I would.

Coffee was very good I hear.

Tea was a good masala base but way too sweet.

Pastries and baked goods were excellent.

Was recommended to this popular coffee shop. I ordered the seasonal pumpkin chai but was not expecting it to be over $9… I have never paid this much for a drink… just be aware. Not sure how much their regular lattes are. Hopefully they are closer to market prices. I also got their Dubai chocolate cronut which was yummy. But also cost me around $10. But I was ok with that since I don’t come across cronuts that often. The drink was good but nothing crazy. I’ve had something similar for half the price. I liked the decor of the place. **This is my personal experience, saying this because I’ve seen the snarky responses the owner has written to some of these reviews. People are entitled to their opinion. Not sure if I’ll be back. On to the next coffee shop in RVA..

I went here yesterday for the first time. The drink was fine but the price was wild. I got a basic latte (size L) and it was $10.50 before tax and $12+ after tax. I’ve been to a bunch of high quality coffee shops around Richmond and while traveling, and I have never seen a basic large latte priced nearly that high (even in Manhattan).

It also didn’t feel quite right that on the posted menu they only had the price listed for their regular size latte ($6). I was surprised at the register when it rang up more than $10 for the large. At the very least, I think the menu should be up front about the pricing so you’re not finding out after you’ve waited in line and ordered.

On the positive side, they have done a great job with the physical space - it’s a beautiful building and nicely decorated. So paying a bit more would be reasonable for such a nice place. But it was about 2x the price that other local coffee shops I go to charge for the same drink, which seemed excessive (especially when the pricing isn’t made clear prior to ordering).

Went for an early morning pick me up. Mariah and Tanner were very welcoming. Enjoyed their hospitality and the specialty drink! Go for the atmosphere stay for the beverage … or the other way around.

What a cute place with interesting history and awesome staff! We walked over after the canal tour, and the baristas were very helpful and kind. I had my two daughters with me, and they gave them specially poured hot cocoa with pretty shapes in the milk so they could be like mom and dad. And then while my husband and I enjoyed our drinks and the baristas were cleaning up, they allowed my daughters to rehide all the tiny figurines around the shop in new places. I could tell the head barista is a cool aunt with nieces and nephews, she knows how to handle kids! What a gem for the community. ❤️
