The location on Ross St is great, no complaint at all! Nice place to study. Food, drink and people are great! Highly recommend.The location across from campus is ugh... I am kinda disappointed, because I love the other location. The wait is long, and once I ordered 20oz, they gave me 16oz with light ice, because they run out of cups, and honestly it wasnt even light ice.. :(

Was very happy with this local shop and a great new location with the house renovation! So glad that it was not scraped and Ross house was able to make such a great use of the space. A very friendly and helpful staff, delicious coffee clearly very well roasted and scrumptious food items as well! My favorite though is the wrap-around porch and all of the options for seating indoors is great! Just wish that they would require masking inside, because ya know, covid-19... only reason why four out of five stars– happy to change that if public health is taken into consideration. 👍

Absolutely delightful staff and excellent food. Our group tried the cinnamon roll...best ever!!! We also had a couple scones among us, delicious and soft,not dried out at all. Solid menu and coffee is great too!

My husband and I tried out Ross House Coffee shop last Saturday afternoon - about 3-4pm. Looks like a great study spot or place to gather in small groups - lots of rooms and tables. We ordered 2 hot mochas, 1 with whip, 1 without. It took 20 minutes to receive an order. We were brought 2 iced coffees. Took another 10 minutes to receive the order again. My mocha did not have any chocolate in it. We also overhead other people receiving an incorrect order. I probably wont try them again. Coffee Cat and Well Read coffee shops seem to have it more together.

One of my favorite coffee shops in auburn! It’s definitely my favorite as far as the atmosphere goes! It’s such a great place to study or just catch up with friends. Its the perfect in between where you don’t feel like you have to be too quiet but you also don’t get easily distracted. The coffee/other drinks and snacks are good and they have a variety of options. My friends got a scone and a cinnamon roll and really enjoyed them! Plus, the employees are so friendly and extremely accommodating! Not to mention, they are super accommodating when it comes to customization of drinks (ex. using milk substitutes).

Unfortunately, the reviews about the wait times here are spot on. It took me 30 minutes, just standing and waiting, to get two lattes. I’ve never been in a coffee shop anywhere, ever, that took this long to make drinks. The people are really friendly (I guess this is a southern thing, but of course no one was wearing masks), but a wait time that long is just unacceptable. Oh and I’ll add— the two cops who came in got their drinks and giant bag of food immediately, so clearly they are capable of making a drink in less than 30 minutes.

Great coffee house to hang out with friends or get some work done. Really beautiful location in a renovated house, has a very local cultural feel. Coffee is great, they are in the process of creating a local roast, always friendly service, very convenient to campus but off the main trail enough to be a quiet reprieve from the noise around College Street.

Some of the best coffee in Auburn, they make a very good cortado, however the dark roast beans used for espresso arent the most pleasant for just a shot of that. Ross House does have a large selection of pastries and food, the chocolate muffins are excellent, especially when they are warmed up, the cinnamon rolls are decent, not as cinnamony as I would like. It can get busy there in the evening due to its proximity to 160 Ross. They do have a large patio out front to work or hangout on, along with ample parking around back.

One of my favorite coffee shops ever. I was a grad student at Auburn for two years and spent a ton of time here studying and hanging out with friends. This is definitely one of the things I miss most about Auburn. The coffee and scones are impossible to beat.

This is a wonderful place to come for a cup of coffee, to study, to meet with a friend, or for a work meeting. This is my go to place when I am in Auburn. The employees are friendly and the coffee is excellent. There are are lots of options for coffee and methods. Highly recommended!!!

Good atmosphere and delicious coffee... BUT I waited an hour for a white chocolate mocha and then over 30 minutes for the turkey guacamole sandwhich. The wait time is ridiculous, so if you come here just expect to spend awhile.

Ross House is a great coffee shop. Its environment is relatively understated and quiet making it some of the better study/hangout in small groups. If youre looking for a cafe/pub environment Id suggest sitting outside. The baristas are all helpful and genuinely nice people.

I’ve only gone once, pre covid, but enjoyed my time there! I got a frozen lemonade that was pretty tasty. Next time I’m in the area, I’ll try the coffee. Very nice staff and loads of space to sit around and study or work.

Edit: Excellent service on all other regular visits. I think they were understaffed at ny visit below. Get the mocha muffin its the best.Waited 1 hour for an Americano, 30 more minutes for a scone, and even more for a cinnamon roll. It took a total of 2 hours to get my cappuccino and I got it as I was leaving. I told the manager to not make it and she made it right then for me.Two older gentlemen who ordered waay after us got their coffee and food first, so I told the manager. Her response was, they just fussed about it more.I understand it was a bit busy, but if I have to wait for 2 hours for coffee thats just bad. Invest in an additional espresso machine or something.Scone was good, cinnamon roll was cold even though I know it was made after i ordered. Cappuccino was good.

Love the energy here. The setup is also unique and unlike most coffee shops. Just like in a house, the space is split into different rooms which I like because you can choose to be in a quieter or more lively room depending on where you work best! The cold brew is great and I’ve had the paninis multiple times for a quick lunch. Definitely check them out!

Review №33

Best atmosphere out of Auburn’s vast coffee shop scene, and perfect for studying. The building is a tastefully restored old house with several separate rooms to enjoy, and a cute community bookshelf. My only complaint is that this place has become a frequent host to rather loud Bible study groups and other student organization meetings, which can sometimes interfere with studying. Cushions for the chairs would be nice too! :)

Not very good coffee, was disappointed when I ordered a Chemex and they went to the back and pumped out premade coffee and the latte that was made was tasted like it was missing a shot. The place looked nice and a good place to study and hang out but won’t be going there to just get coffee.

Review №43

Cute little shop! Im not someone who drinks a whole lot of coffee, but the drinks I did have were fantastic. Their matcha is one I particularly enjoy as well as some of their more seasonal drinks, including the most recent one I had with dark chocolate and raspberry. Parking is a little hassle, but Im able to walk to it as its very close to several apartments. The house itself is old in a good way and its clearly been updated well. It feels pretty welcoming and you can see that a good deal of care was put into its switch to a coffee shop. Prices are per usual for a small coffee shop, but I enjoy going to get some work done when I need to get out of the house. Definitely recommend!

A house that has been converted into a coffee shop. Very nice place to sit and relax while you enjoy your coffee. The coffee tastes great, and the staff is friendly. I’d recommend Rosshouse to anyone.

Review №46

Apparently Rosshouse likes to welcome people to Auburn by calling the cops on them. We moved here two weeks ago, and because this Google page says that this coffee house is open until 11, my husband assumed that they were open when he went there at 9:30 last night and he found them closed with summer hours. Sitting in his car thinking about what he wanted to do, the employees called the police on him. I still cant believe it - never going back and telling everyone I meet to avoid this company.

Review №50

The overall feel of Rosshouse is great. There is plenty of seating throughout so you’re almost always able to find a place to chill. There is also seating on the front porch which will be nice when weather permits. I ordered a vanilla latte and the chicken salad. The latte was great. Just as I expected. The chicken salad has me a bit bothered, though. This is the first time I have ever been served chicken salad with rice it in and there was so much rice I could barely tell what I was actually supposed to be eating. I feel that the rice was there as filler to make the chicken salad go further which is a really cheap and shady way to save some money. Very disappointed and confused. This is only my first time here so I will likely go back to give it another try but it will take something really delcious to win me back. I’ll probably stick to my most recently found favorite coffee place in Opelika.

Great coffee! One of the best in Auburn. However, I couldn’t get my cold drink in a non-disposable cup. It just felt like a waste of a lid, straw, sleeve, and plastic cup. They have reusable mugs for hot cofffee, though.

I enjoyed the homey atmosphere of this place, as well as the delicious coffee and pastries. The only thing making this place 4 stars is the service. It seemed like the baristas were bored and I almost felt like they were reluctant to serve me. They were nice though, just had RBF.

Slowest “baristas” I’ve ever seen. It should not take 20 minutes for one drink and a pastry when there are only three tickets in front of me. Not efficient at all!
