What customers say

This is a roasting+training facility, just FYI!! Some of the best coffee in the world but don't walk here in the cold like I did.

★★★★★ — Anthony, 2022-10

I am absolutely thrilled with this coffee company. It was recommended to me by a friend who really knows his coffee, and he told me this was the best quality and best value in the United States. I placed my first order and was blown away by everything, the flavor, the packaging, the service.

Awesome morning at the Chicago Food Film Festival Edible Adventure at Intelligentsia Roasting Works. So cool to get a behind the scenes look at the roasting center, although there is no cafe on site.

★★★★☆ — Amy, 2011-11

Here at the Chicago Food Film Festival, and I just had the BEST Espresso I've ever tasted. Wowza! Intelligentsia fan for life! When in Austin, Texas - get it at Frank Restaurant.
