The Finger Lakes region is known for its waterfalls, gorges, and beautiful scenery. While you are enjoying all these outside activities, you will undoubtedly need a caffeinated pick-me-up. Luckily, the region is full of unique coffee shops to explore. Take your coffee to go and enjoy it on the 70 acres of lawns, ponds, and gardens at La Tourelle. These are three of the best Ithaca coffee shops. 

Finger Lakes Coffee Roasters 

Finger Lakes Coffee Roasters has some of the best coffee in Ithaca. Stop by for a freshly brewed coffee or espresso drink. Then browse over 50 varieties of coffee roasted on sight. You might end up loving Finger Lakes Coffee Roasters so much you’ll want to take some home! We would recommend taking home a pound of the Canandaigua Blend, which is a local favorite and known for its full body and flavor. Or try the Lake Blend for a more mild, medium-bodied coffee. Check out their complete list of products online to find the perfect blend for you. 

Gimme! Coffee

Gimme! Coffee strives to bring coffee to the community using sustainable practices. Most of the coffee available here is organic or fair trade. Every batch of coffee is roasted to create the perfect flavors and aromatics. There are endless options to choose from, but we would recommend trying the new Highlands Coffee Series. The Kenya Nyeri Highlands highlights black currants, dark chocolate, and shiraz. The Burundi Kayanza Highlands highlights caramel, browned butter, and toasted almonds.

The mission of Ithaca Coffee Company is to purchase sustainably grown coffee from around the world. Coffee is roasted in small batches to achieve the best flavor, clarity, aroma, and sweetness. The cafe includes a wide selection of coffee, espresso, tea, sandwiches, and baked goods. Make sure to buy a 12 ounce can of the best-selling Ithaca House Blend before you leave.
