Friendly, welcoming. You can grab and go or stay awhile. Like that they support women in recovery as well.

Many many options for coffee all with a great taste ! As a US traveler this one will be on my go back list, never been to a coffee shop with a Mission, at that a Non profit woman’s mission for those recovering or unemployed women and keeping them busy here ! Peruvian items for purchase and unique hand made shoes, you can’t go wrong here . So much coffee

The food is great and the people are nice, but the hours are never consistentThey say they close at 5, but some days they’re closed much earlier, and some days they don’t open at all.

Good coffee and a great cause. Service is always helpful and friendly.

This coffee shop has a great mission I’m proud to support, and they’re a great place to work remotely: they have a solid internet connection, a yummy selection of snacks/soup/sandwiches and they sell a bottomless cup of coffee.

The food is great and so is the coffee... hands down the best peanut butter cookie I have ever had!!!

What an amazing experience. They are a non for profit helping women who are recovering. Nicest staff I have ever encountered and I got these amazing shoes! I will be back and recommend your establishment every time!!!

Good coffee, friendly staff, nice seat at the window.

There are good and softly.

Lovely atmosphere with great coffee and nice art. A comfy place

All of their coffee is fair trade and it goes to supporting a great cause. The food was amazing and the staff was extremely friendly. Always enjoy my visits to Coffee Connection!

Great coffee flavors...staff is awesome

Another one of the coffee shops that helps women build a better life for themselves by providing a place to develop professional skills and build a resume. Makes a good cup of coffee, and I love the roaster in the back room. Small and cozy, so maybe not the place for a large group, but great for a quick cup on the go or to sit for a spell and catch up with a friend.

This coffee shop has a great mission, but is lacking access. It should be wheelchair accessible through the back entrance, but the ramp is cluttered with stuff. The bathroom is big enough to be accessible, but was blocked by a bunch of bins and also cluttered with stuff. I wish they took accessibility more seriously because Id love to be a regular patron.

The smells when you walk through the door is very unique. They are fresh and intoxicating. Felicia is amazing! She is very knowledgeable about the products educating me and my family more on the types of beans they carry, the difference, showing us the authenticity of their products, as they come direct from Peru. Definitely THE place to buy organic, authentic coffee. Not to mention that their company gives back to the farmers.

I stop here every time I visit Rochester because they have the best chocolate truffle coffee ever. The staff is always very friendly and helpful. Nice cozy space too.

Great mission and cozy atmosphere. The coffee is fine. I wish the hours were slightly more reliable - I stopped by on a Sunday am when they were listed as open and it was totally dark. A few more fresh food offerings and better coffee would make this a totally desirable spot in the neighborhood.

I enjoyed it greatly. The coffee was superb and the lady Felicia was helpful n friendly n accommodating. I will definitely be returning.

What a great business. Providing an workplace, support, and empowerment to women in recovery. That and the coffee is really solid. Roasted on site, responsibly sourced, and a whole host of to go coffees as well. In addition there are some of the usual coffee shop artsy fair too. All and all a great place!

I love supporting this business. This location is cozy, and I regularly buy coffee beans here to enjoy at home. The quiche is always great!

I want to match what Erika Russo just said...wow. What an amazing experience it was indeed. The people there were so friendly and so knowledgeable about everything in that store. From custom making your special drink or the beautiful hand woven wool articles of clothing and so much more they were extremely helpful. Lastly, I have had coffee from local roasters around Rochester for a decade and this place by far has the best tasting beans in my book. Peruvian coffee at its finest. Purchased by many restaurants, cafes and other establishments in the area. The best cup of Rochester coffee I have had thus far. Thank you to everyone at the coffee connection. I cant wait to check out your other locations!

This is an amazing, inspiring place that changes lives and impacts the community for the better. Give whatever support you can - their coffee is delicious (the best I’ve ever tasted) and made with compassion. ♥️

Wonderful coffee shop! Fresh roasted coffee, great variety of flavors of coffee and tea. Pleasant atmosphere and friendly staff.

Coffee is locally roasted. The Peruvian is totally delicious. Barista had a warm, friendly vibe--invited us to sample the blends before selection. The cafe is small and warm and smells of roasted coffee. It has four or five two top tables. We took one by the window, where we ate homemade bacon, zucchini quiche. The philosophy behind the cafe is brilliant and progressive. I hope to go again.

This coffee shop helps women in need and the staff couldnt be friendlier! Excellent coffee and food with an awesome mission. If youre thinking about coming here, do it.

Good coffee. I love the smell when they roast their beans.

Good hot and frozen coffees, desserts, and smoothies. Relaxing shop with indoor and outdoor seating, service a little slow but staff very pleasant. Positive mission makes spending here feel even nicer.

Awesome place, great service, and a recovery based non profit for women in recovery. Great coffee yummy treats!!! A must go if in the area.

Fantastic coffee and a great mission! Coffee Connection creates jobs for women in recovery, and sells organic fair-trade coffee. A wonderful small business thats doing good in the Rochester community.

Very nice staff and atmosphere, excellent coffee. Felicia is very nice and attentive. Will definitely be back.

Local Rochester cafe and coffee roastery supporting women in recovery. Cozy with plenty of seating. Also serves homemade soups and quiche.

I love this place! They roast their own beans and do good things for the community.

One of the many great little coffee shops in Rochester.Keep up the great work

Awesome staff! They were very welcoming to me & my emotional support animal, a guinea pig i named Wilma Jean. Excellent italian sodas & baked goods. Definitely will be back! 😁

Awesome space, great selection of coffee and amazing mission! Friendly staff and cozy environment. I highly recommend.

Amazing coffee great people absolutely my favorite place to go have a cup of coffee and a bagel

Incredible coffee brewed in-house. Super nice ladies running the place too. Great to stop by but not as enjoyable a place to just sit and relax.

Best coffee in Rochester. Roasted in house, carefully and ethically sourced, and the price is still right (less than three bucks for an iced coffee). Plus it has a good social mission.

A laid-back place with excellent coffees.

Good coffee. Great mission worth supporting.

So it depends on the location you stop at, the one in the southwedge is super great, they do all the roasting there in the shop, the coffee is wonderful and the people are fantastic. However it is small which can discourage those who like to find a corner somewhere and get work done for hours on end. If you go to the winton village location though this place is expansive and very charming. They have a greenhouse out back where they grow some of the veggies used in their food. The rest they source from the public market. The greenhouse cafe is a super great place to get quiet time to just sit and think or plow through some backlog. Both use their own roasted coffee which they source sustainably. They work with small farmers to get the best fresh, organic, and fair trade beans. They also employ women in recovery programs, giving them employment that empowers them. I think this place has the right idea and is a gem in the Rochester community.

Excellent coffee, very nice interior and wonderful staff.

I met here with a friend and I am just not a coffee drinker really, it they had this iced vanilla chocolate latte that was freaking awesome AND cheap! Plus the company has a great cause so it was a win win for me. Parking is right out front and at 9 am there was ample parking. We sat there and talked for hours and no one looked at us funny, and everyone had a great attitude and customer service etiquette. If I have another coffee meeting, I would definitely choose here. Did seem cluttered though, so for management I would tell them to cut back on all the different items that were all over the place, but thats just me. Some people might like to shop for little random knick knacks and books and sandals while getting coffee.

Love it here! Great coffee, great merchandise, awesome cause! ❤

Great coffee, good people, and a great mission too. Helping women in recovery!

The coffee is ok, but the espresso not at the same level as Glen Edith, Joe Beans or Meraki (down the road). I like the atmosphere, the staff is friendly, and its a nice place for a sip with friends.

Service here isnt the greatest, I attempted to order a hazelnut latte with less flavor syrup and ended up with steamed milk and lots of hazelnut flavoring. I will walk the extra block to equal grounds in the future.

Wonderful little coffee shop with a fantastic mission!

Coffee is amazing and so is the staff. Very friendly and helpful.

I love this place and what they stand for.

Excellent coffee, food, and mission!

Love Coffee Connection..great place, great mission and love the hospitality..
