Emerson Coffee Company: New Beans in Town
Filed Under (Local Restaurants) by admin


This morning, we visited the new Emerson Coffee Company coffeehouse on Roswell Street. From the outset, the design work caught my eye. The outside of the building has an old-school, art deco style, especially in the silver lettering of the company name. Once you’re inside, welcome to the modern era! The layout of the store is spacious and clean, with an amazing concrete floor and beautiful colors. Lighting fixtures are industrial and subtle. The location boasts a wall-mounted, flat-panel TV, which had a news channel on when we visited. The volume was very low so it wasn’t intrusive. You also have the luxury of a free, wi-fi internet connection in the cafe.

I enjoyed a double regular Americano with my cheese streusel muffin. The espresso in the drink tasted good and the muffin was tasty. For a limited time, Emerson is offering an “opening special” on several of their latte drinks. They even have a drive-thru for commuters, which is convenient.

If you’re looking for a great place to relax and enjoy some coffee, give the new Emerson Coffee Company location a try. They’re located at 358 Roswell St, Suite 1200, right past the central library (going east) and across the street from the cemetery. - Emerson Coffee House Marietta

[…] I waited in line (thankfully in my car) for over 10 minutes to get a coffee at the new local coffee shop, Emerson Coffee Company. The bizarre thing is that there was only 1 car in front of me. […]

Personally, i think the service at Emerson Coffee Company is very poor. There are some employees that are so rude and take a very long time to get my coffee out, which by the way never tastes fresh. I either thing the owners need to fire and rehire other workers and get FRESH coffee or just focus on their construction they are building and stop working in something they know nothing about.

I don’t know what these other folks are talking about with poor service. I was there about a month ago, and LOVED it. The staff was friendly and quick. The decor is beautiful…..I loved everything about my experience there!

Just a note- Emerson is cash-only, so debit-happy coffee addicts will need to plan a stop by the ATM first!

I have been going to Emerson Coffee for a long time now and it is my FAV coffee shop! I have always received excellent service with a friendly, personal touch. They have the best mochachino - and I can get it nonfat, decaf - not so at most other chains.

Horrible coffee! If you enjoy a nicely blended drip coffee don’t go here - their idea of a cup of coffee is an Americano - a shot of espresso and hot water. Yuk! Service proved to be much like everything else - they have no idea how to run a coffee business. They did spend a ton of money on the building. That is about the only favorable thing about the experience.
