Great service and coffee. Nice atmosphere. Yet the hours of service are shorter than most coffee shops.

I've tried all the little coffee shops in Guelph but the coffee here is something else. The roast is perfect. Nutty and three dimensional. So good! Definitely one of my fav coffee shops in this city! Staff are also super friendly and jolly. They remember my order all the timr without me even asking! Love this place!

Great service and has the cafe atmosphere we go for. The food was good. Only complaint is that the soup was on the bland side. That may just be me and my love of salt :P Prices pretty average for this type of place.

Good coffee, quick service, friendly staff. If you're anywhere nearby, it's worth stopping - lots of parking out front too

Great coffee, friendly staff, and a nice outdoor seating area. I enjoy bringing my work here and sitting on outside on nice days. The deli menu is so-so, but I'm not usually there for the food - so not a deal-breaker. Roobarb is definitely one of the better coffee shops in the area.
