Summer Menu releases June 10th!

At Roots, we are very proud of our seasonal, local menu. Four times a year, we change out our seasonal signature drinks along with bakery items, breakfast items, and sandwiches that pair perfectly with our coffee. With our emphasis on plant-based, gluten free, and overall healthier options, each seasonal menu takes an entire team to dream up, craft, experiment with, and finally release to you - our Roots community. Hospitality is at our heart and that means making sure everyone, regardless of dietary preference or restrictions, has something to enjoy in our space.

This summer, we’ll be releasing two new signature espresso drinks, as well as a new smoothie, a carefully crafted frappe, brand new breakfast offerings, and new vegan and GF baked goodies! As you’ll see below, summer peaches were our inspiration for a lot of this menu. To us, peaches embody the beauty of a summer treat - balanced, fresh, juicy, sweet, and perfect for hot summer days!

All of these culinary delights will debut on June 10th! Scroll down to learn more about each item on this new menu:

DRINK

Peach Bourbon Latte

The brainchild of our barista and shift supervisor, Ray, this drink combines real peach puree & bourbon flavor with our espresso and milk for a perfectly summery, yet perfectly complex signature drink. Try it iced or hot.

Peach & Palmer

A take on last year’s Coffee Palmer, this drink adds our house-made peach sauce with fresh squeezed lemon juice, cold brew, and Topo Chico for a refreshing, patio sipping beverage.

Black Cherry Frappe

Dreamed up by our store manager, Alissa, this frozen delight includes real cherries, dark cocoa, cold brew, and of course you can top it with whipped cream for extra decadence.

Peach Blackberry Smoothie

Our seasonal smoothie combines our house-made blackberry sauce with real peaches, banana, and orange juice to make our first ever nut free and dairy free smoothie!

New Craft Beers on Tap!

Stay tuned for a new refreshing beer to complement summer night patio sitting.

New Wines by the Glass!

Rosé for summer sippin’!

Sourdough French Toast (weekends only)

Our manager, Alissa, dreamed up this amazing new French Toast just for the weekends at Roots! Made with amazing local sourdough from The Proof Bakery and served alongside real maples syrup or peach bourbon sauce, with an option to add whipped cream.

The Avocado toast is here to stay and will be joined by a new toast that features Kerrygold butter and peach jam!

Dreamed up by our barista and shift supervisor, Kelsey, this muffin is a combination of dark chocolate, real cherries, coconut sugar, GF flour, and more.

Summer Peach Muffin (vegan & GF)

This new muffin features peach jam and real peaches, plus applesauce for just the right texture!

Sticking around from Spring will be our Lavender Honey Latte and Moodchanger iced tea, as well as our sandwiches and snack plates. We will be waving a final farewell to weekend breakfast tacos.

Be sure to come by the week of June 10th to be the first to try these brand new summer drinks and food! We can’t wait to share this menu with our community.







Plants are the new Dairy: introducing three new plant-based signature drinks for Spring!

UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_f23.jpg

You’ve been asking, and we’ve been listening! Introducing an entire section of our menu dedicated to our plant-based and vegan friends!

One of our values here at Roots is excellence. We want to be excellent not only in the way we make our drinks, but also in sourcing the right ingredients to go into them. We’ve always been committed to quality over quantity, which is why while you may see fewer option on our menu, we will always strive to provide you with high-quality options that change seasonally. This season, we are so excited to introduce you to an entirely new section of our menu - Plant Based Signature Drinks! With intolerance for dairy at an all time high and people looking for lower sugar options, we’re excited to announce three brand new drinks that are entirely free from animal products and come by default with alternative milks.

Spring Fever - made from high quality matcha (finely ground green tea with just a touch of sugar), house-made blackberry sauce, and house-made pistachio almond milk! (Also try it’s companion muffin, the Spring Fever Muffin - house-made, Vegan, and Gluten Free)

Sea Salt Mocha - a combination of our dark chocolate, house-made vanilla syrup, espresso, and steamed almond milk topped with flaked Maldon sea salt.

Lavender Latte - this latte screams spring with our house-made lavender syrup (made from lavender oil), espresso, and steamed Oat Milk (by Minor Figures)

You’ll be able to try all three of these drinks starting on 2/26, when our Spring Menu launches! This new menu will also include new vegetarian sandwiches, Gluten Free & Vegan bakery offerings, and more local ingredients from our amazing community!!

Winter Drinks are here!

We’re so excited to debut four drinks as a part of our Winter Menu!

Minter Mocha - this drink combines house-made mint syrup, our signature cocoa blend, espresso, and steamed milk. It’s minty. It’s chocolatety. It’s everything you want in a Winter Drink!

Megnog - this year, we hosted a barista throwdown to determine one of our signature drinks! All our our baristas brought their best and the Megnog won! This drink is made from house-made brandy syrup, espresso, steamed half & half, and it’s topped with nutmeg! It tastes just like eggnog, but lighter. It’s also tasty over ice.

Golden Warmer - this tea based drink is sure to chase away the sniffles! It’s got turmeric ginger tea, chai, honey, and a dash of half and half at add depth!

Minter Mocha Frappe - everything you love about our Minter Mocha, but in frozen form for those of you that love to drink cold drinks all year long!

Eco Cups are Here!

Well, folks, the day is finally here! One of our founding beliefs at Roots is to integrate sustainability into every part of our business - reducing, reusing, and recycling whenever we can. Making as many drinks as we can in for here mugs or glasses. Donating our coffee grounds to the community garden. Serving your food on real plates with real cutlery. Integrating disposable products made from sustainable sources where we can. But still, the “to go” nature of our business weighs heavy on our hearts as we know what that means for our earth.

So, we decided to make a change. We wanted to make it easy for our amazing customers to choose a re-usable option, and so we are so proud to announce that starting today we have these beautiful re-usable bamboo fiber mugs available when you buy your drink! The best part?! They’re only $3!!!! Even better than that? Bring it back again and again and every time you get your Roots drink made in one, we’ll give you a quarter ($0.25) off your drink! *

These to-go mugs are suitable for hot or iced drinks, the perfect 12oz size, and every single part of it is made from sustainable bamboo (with the lone exception of the silicone sleeve)! We hope this makes it easy for you to show your love for mother earth by switching to a re-usable option.
