Square One Coffee Roasters

Delicious specialty coffee made the right way. Love, love, love their limited drinks menu, which focus on traditional espresso-based drinks. None of the unnecessary sugar to drown out your caffeine. Service was good. Barista here know what they're doing. Inside is big wide open space with lots of seating area.

I was gifted a cupping class to Square One and it was a wonderful experience. Ken was great in walking us through the coffees and steps for tasting, plus the coffee itself was fantastic tasting. Any shop committed to educating consumers on coffee gets approval from me, and doing it via great coffee is even better.

Autumn Comfort and Community During my visit to Square One Coffee in downtown Lancaster, I ordered a pumpkin spice latte for about $7 before tip. The drink was beautifully presented, topped with light foam design. Its flavor was warm and balanced, not too sweet, with just the right blend of espresso and spice.

Apparently you can get a free drink if you buy a bag of beans. Didn’t see it advertised anywhere, and it was our first time there. We got drinks first to see if we liked it and then bought some beans. Unfortunately, it was late in the day and not our first coffees, so we passed on the free beverage.
