We were in Ithaca for a long weekend in February 2021 and we stumbled upon Ithaca Coffee Company as our AirBnB had the coffee available for guests to have. After having a cup in the morning, we decided we needed to make a stop at the store. AMAZING store and even better coffee! We bought multiple cans to give as gifts to our dog sitters. We were able to find some snacks for our weekend, there are kitchen supplies, trinkets, a café, and even a small tavern! Such a cool place. The employees were super friendly and welcoming. This will always be a stop on our list when in the Ithaca area!
Love, love and more love this place! When in Town, I always try and hit up Ithaca Coffee Co.; now, it’s permanently moved to a plaza on outskirts of Town, but worth the 2 minutes extra drive. Parking is ample. Product selection is select down to the minutest detail items, for example, was able to find orange bitters as well as Dutch licorice. The cheese selection is varied and is an astute selection. Beth, was very kind and outfitted me with a frequent shoppers card prior to my modest but noteworthy purchase of hard-to-find grocery items to take back with me to Buffalo, New York, in my car cooler... do it and just be happy you did it! Will return and also shop online, the coffee beans are to die for!!!
I bought a bag of whole bean Ethiopia Yirgacheffe and it was the worst Yirgacheffe I have ever tried. Either the coffee was stored for too long before or the processing method couldnt make the flavor come out or the beans were just bad. Do not buy their Yirgacheffe because you always have a better choice elsewhere.
Food and coffe are excellent but services should improved. I asked for reward program, staff gave me the card without explaining that my order didnt added in the program, yet. When I checked my ORDER HISTORY and found out that it wrote..You havent placed any orders yet. That made me very upset.
So I walk into the establishment doors are open workers at their stations I walk up to place my order and stand there for 5 minutes while she stood there texting so I said excuse me and got the annoyed look and tongue click I aske if she had frozen coffee and rudely said yes and told me they weren’t open? Hmmmmm that’s funny doors are open and everything points to you are but ok so I leave go to my car check the site it clearly says open so what she was saying was they weren’t open according to her time so I called woman answers I’m assuming it’s her cause she was rude I said can I place a pick up and got the annoyed sigh and the I’m so screwing her morning upplaced my order and she says 10 or 15 min they are just now opening up really??!?? Not impressed and my order was wrong I got a sesame seed bread instead of a sesame bagel with ham egg and cheese I should have said something but I’m to irritated so I threw my breakfast sandwich in the trash and that folks is why you always go to CTB
There was a time Ithaca had a German bakery, deli, and other yummy Euro luxuries. Here you can still buy great coffee, coffee related products, Austrian chocolates, marzipan pigs, as well as great local sweets, beers, olive oils and cheeses from here and all over. The gift baskets are sweet, the staff friendly, and I cant resist stopping weekly to see whats new. My personal favs: the cheeses, hot chocolate choices, and anything on the back wall.
We have come to depend on Ithaca Coffee for delicious coffee beans among other products and prepared foods, all of which we love! Today we ordered for curbside pickup and it worked out perfectly. Things we ordered today and recommend besides coffee include eggs, milk, ice cream, tea, oils, and cheeses! Thank you!
Some of, if not the best coffee in town! They have a splendid little coffee counter with some pretty great food offerings as one might expect of a coffee place, as well as a wide selection of bulk coffees for sale. Beyond that they have a selection of coffee and tea making devices for home, a nice selection of cured meats, cheeses and chocolates. As an extra special bonus they have a fantastic beer tasting room/bar with growler fills and a wide variety of beer on tap as well as a selection of bottles. Any trip to ithaca should include a stop here!
Horrible experience! Tried bagel today and it was like a stone!!! Dunkin Donuts or even McDonalds would never do that. My teeth are still aching from eating that bagel. Coffee was good though but unfortunately was offset by a horrible bagel experience. I would recommend getting coffee here and go eating somewhere else if you’re hungry
My most visited coffee shop. They have good espresso drinks, and a strong cold brew. If you like real green tea lattes, they make good ones (not from a mix like starbucks.) I also like to get chocolate covered pretzels from the back counter. They are my weakness and very delicious!
Kind of hidden off Triphammer, but a lovely little coffee shop that has a simple menu of things to choose from along with some great things to buy. And if youre not feeling coffee and would prefer an adult beverage there is a little quiet bar area tucked in the back. Great place to catch up with someone and wanting to keep it casual and not surrounded by a ton of people.
I used to go here daily and was always pleased with the great coffee! Ive had fresh brew, cafe lattes, steamed milk with honey, cafe mocha and the Kyoto iced coffee. The ice coffee feels like crack, it will have you wired for hours. The staff is great as well. Get a coffee card started and start earning free drinks!
Absolutely loved this shop. The variety of items in there made me giddy. We were traveling and just wanted to pick up a cup of coffee. I was surprised to find not only coffee and sandwiches but the selection of meats/cheeses, chocolates, wine, and beer made me think I was at a Toy R Us for adults.
Great place for beer, several rotating taps with selections from a large area. Large stock of beer in coolers and racks. Additionally, they offer wine pours and a limited but good food selection (cheese plate, pretzel, sandwiches, etc).The front area is a coffee shop and food store where you choose from a large selection of meats and cheeses as well as items like chocolates, crackers, and coffee beans, to name just a few.
The main room has good espresso drinks, cheese, and chocolate. The tavern in the back is awesome. 12 taps and once a beer is kicked they switch it out to a new one. Every week you show up they have a new set of beers to choose from. You can buy the beer by the glass, or you can buy it by the 4oz sample which I like. They also have wine by the glass. It is kind of like a little slice of heaven.
Great variety of food and beer! There are two menus (at least on Saturdays)....one for inside and one for outside in the patio area, where food items are cooked/prepared outside. During the summertime try their $4 pickled vegetables plate, with produce (beets, etc.) from their on-site garden! :9
I always like stopping in here for a coffee. dont get up in this part of town too often but its consistently a pleasant stop. the coffee is good, good fancy food to purchase( cheese and expensive snacks) and the beer bar in the back is really nice, but I am hardly ever up there at the end of the day for that.
I didnt go there. I went to Ithaca Bakery and I didnt get what I asked for. I asked for everything bagel got that. I asked for toasted, it was not toasted. I asked chicken salad got that and that was good could have left out onions. I asked for provolone cheese didnt get that, got American cheese there is a difference. I guess I wont be coming back.

2022-03-21This place has absolutely fantastic coffee. They also serve pretty decent breakfast. I really like working here and I like the idea that I could work on the coffee shop side all morning, and then switch over to the pub in the afternoon / evening and have a beer!

2022-05-24What a fabulous place! Really excellent coffee and coffee drinks, terrific food and that market! Theres a huge variety of fresh cheeses, packages of high quality snack foods from gourmet crackers to truffle popcorn, local products and chocolates. On top of that, the staff is incredibly nice! Just wish I lived closer...

2021-10-09This review is strictly for the cafe part of the store. I got an iced oat matcha latte and rooster sandwich. Matcha is fine, not bad but nothing special. The sandwich was very salty and biscuit was a bit gluey. Would not recommend, maybe try a dif sandwich. Service is a bit slow but the staff are very friendly. My friends got hot lattes and the barista drew some simple latte art, so cute! Im not a coffee drinker, but i think the coffee is quite nice.

2022-03-19Behind the random strip mall exterior is a wonderful experience! Barista recommended London Fog oat milk tea. Wow! clearly made from their own organic blend and the best I’ve ever tasted. Breakfast sandos made to order are amazing and the large space includes a tavern w/beers to-go too. Gourmet local food and an impressive cheese selection also here. Love Ithaca Coffee Company 💜

2022-05-17First time visit I found all of the shopping fun. Food delicious! However, I went to order a coffee and one of the employees seemed shockingly rude to me. They seemed polite to other people. I just cant see why me.

2022-05-31Took forever! Like well over half an hour and there were only 2 other people in the whole place. After we ate, I asked the chef if they sold the horseradish in a jar that was on the Cuban sandwich. He said they dont put horseradish on the Cuban. We laughed so hard. Oh... there was definitely horseradish. It burned our sinuses out in a great way. So well that i really wanted to buy a jar. Lol! I have a feeling it was the mustard that has horseradish in it. Maybe new cooks due to college break? The food was tasty at least.

2021-12-03This review cannot possibly do justice to all the Ithaca Coffee Company has to offer, but they make great coffee drinks and sandwiches (The Cubano is my favorite!). They have an incredible selection of local foods and an amazing assortment of cheeses. They have a wide selection of local and non-local beers. Ive only scratched the surface here, but you could spend a half day browsing all of the wonderful offerings in the Ithaca Coffee Company and still not see everything. I love the fact that almost hidden in the back is a quiet dining area where you can hang out and get some work done while enjoying a vanilla latte and a blueberry muffin. The Ithaca Coffee Company is one of my favorite places to hang out.

2022-02-01I order a cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese It came to me hard as a rock. I reordered the same meal It came to me for the second time the same way. I am not sure if they are leaving the bagel in the toaster for too long but It was horrible. If I threw the bagel at something It would break It. This is not an exaggeration.
