Absolutely fantastic. Went here for my friend's bachelor party with a group of 4 for the Saturday Experience. We learned a ton about coffee ranging from historic origins to home roasting. Would recommend to anyone and everyone!

Craig is an artist, both coffee and the store design ! The place is absolutely stunning ! He has a great knowledge on coffee and it is the home of ‘ Saturday Coffee Experience ‘ . Their coffee can also be found in the Fulton street market. Their Dark roast Pour over is very good. Yet to try their signature Red Eye espresso blend.Please encourage local businesses 👍🏾 especially the ones with a lot of passion & commitment.

Great experience on Saturday mornings! The owner loves to talk about all things coffee! Best of all, free specialty coffee with no pressure to purchase anything. Awesome variety of brewing demonstrations at noon on Saturdays as well! Prices are right on par with other specialty brands and a good amount less than the “other” roaster in GR. Recently bought a light roast from Panama and it was excellent!

We attended the Saturday Experience for the first time this last weekend. We had an absolute blast and learned a great deal. Craig was great at providing information and helping us to learn. We greatly appreciated his approach to coffee and never made anyone feel inferior or intimidated. We left with extra knowledge and a number of bags of fresh coffee and tea. We will be visits here again!

My girlfriend and I are obsessed with coffee and will only buy from GR Coffee Roasters! Craig and Kassy do an amazing job teaching about the beans and roasting experience during the Saturday Experience. I really enjoy the atmosphere and learning more everytime we visit. Can't recommend this place higher- we take anyone visiting us to GR Coffee Roasters as a Grand Rapids must-see!

First time visit on a Saturday. Nice place, good people. Craig is also an audiophile so he has lots of "input" on that as well as the coffee. Go there.

We love GR Coffee Roasters! First started going to their Saturday Experience (i.e. free coffee and a super relaxing atmosphere) back in 2016. The staff here has always been very friendly & knowledgable, and you can tell they love what they do. Craig the owner knows everything there is to know about coffee and we learn something new every time we’re here. Plus the coffee is EXCELLENT. Keep up the great work, guys!

Awesome roaster. Craig is super knowledgeable on coffees from around the world. He has many options to choose from. The Honduran Red Honey is fantastic!! Check out his American made roaster too. Saturday morning you can experience some interesting coffees and learn a ton. Enjoyable relaxing vibe.

Big fan of this place! For West Michigan GRCR is one of my favorite coffee roasters. It does not matter which orgin I am in the mood for I know it will be roasted to perfection when I grab a bag. The owner is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I appreciate this as I ask a lot of questions when I am shopping for coffee. Cannot wait for my next bag from GRCR!

My wife and I have enjoyed our visits to GRCR for over a decade. I first discovered Craig and his roastings from a news article left on a breakroom table at a former employer. At that time he was on the fifth floor walk-up in an semi abandoned warehouse in south-west GR. Thru the years we sampled over 60 different coffees from around the world. A few years ago (just before the lock-down) he moved down to the first floor in a much larger and more inviting area in the same building but now with access via a big blue door on Geofrey Ave SW plus ample parking in the rear. If you want to know about coffee just ask Craig.

I was on the hunt for a unique experience to kick off my husband's 40th birthday party. He loves coffee, so the Saturday Experience at Grand Rapids Coffee Roasters seemed like a great fit. Craig was so helpful, interesting and informative. We learned about coffee, where is comes from, how it's roasted, why it's roasted certain ways and he was ready to answer all of our questions. Not only that but the coffee was delicious. We purchased coffee that was roasted that day and have been enjoying it since. We will definitely be back. Thanks for a wonderful experience!
