Rocket Bean Roastery is a specialty coffee house in Dzirnavu, just a block away from the Art Nouveau district. The café has a chill vibe, with big glass windows and retro, rustic decor. Soft electronic music plays in the background.
Rocket Bean Roastery’s main branch is located on Miera Street and is also the coffee production site. The main branch occasionally organizes coffee cuppings, training, and educational trips. Rocket Bean Roastery roasts its own coffee, which can be purchased at both cafés. Lunch and dinner menus are available.
I got to the café around 11:00 a.m. I wanted to order a pancake, but they were no longer taking breakfast orders at that hour. The glass display case had one last open sandwich with arugula, sun-dried tomatoes, pickled cucumber, and an egg. The guy behind the counter suggested that I could order that. So I got the sandwich (3.50 euros) and a Cappuccino (3.40 euros). The Cappuccino was aromatic, intense, creamy, full-bodied, and bitter without being overwhelming. At the bottom of the cup is a picture of a thumbs up with a phrase ( Vella milti, ku’ labs). I tried looking up what the phrase means but had no luck. I found that the word “labs” means good in Latvian. If I had to make a guess, it could probably mean’ good job for finishing the coffee.’
The sandwich was light and healthy. Fresh ingredients on rye bread with sesame dressing.
A cool place to hang out and have a great cup of coffee.
