I highly highly recommend this coffee shop, go in and know the amazing work they are doing. They have amazing coffee and lovely gluten free baked goods. This mother and daughter duo who run this place are really nice people and they do a amazing job.

My husband and I love this place! We do not live near it but whenever we visit our daughter who lives close to Rise we make a point of stopping by. The coffee and other drinks are very good. All the food we have had is also good. We like the way they encourage recycling too. The staff and employees are the best. Such good customer service by people who so clearly love their job! Love to support a business like that!

This is a great spot for coffee + breakfast snacks. They also have a small selection for lunch. We saw the sign a few weeks ago and decided to stop in. We’re glad we we did and have been back several times.The prices are really good (better than the chains).Employees are very friendly/helpful and take the time to know you. They offer employment opportunities to special needs people which we think is great for the community.Defiantly give it a try - we think this is a local gem!

I had the honor of getting to know Nicole while a Paraprofessional at Pope HS. She combined her love of coffee and mission to create an opportunity for Bekah, and others into what we now know as Rise Coffee & Tea. I don’t live close enough to frequent Rise very often, but I support them every chance I get. I am proud that my mug was among the first to hang over the Rise Wall of Mugs! I encourage everyone to support Rise and its mission!

A first class coffee and tea shop with a down home family neighborhood feel. Don’t miss this hidden gem! In addition, every cup of coffee gives a special needs young adult an incredible work experience and training for a productive and positive future. This family owned business deserves to thrive, so come on in, I can promise you will LOVE IT A LATTE!

This is a wonderful place! And the coffee is really good. No bitterness.

I stopped in yesterday with a friend and didnt realize they had just closed a few minutes ago. The owner was so nice and still let us get a quick order in! She explained the history of the shop to us, and the coffee was also great! Will definitely be back!

Great concept (seems to be run by folks with disabilities), friendly employees.Keep in mind that they dont serve real (specialty) espresso; its from an automatic machine. I think the tea is their higher quality offering. It was quite satisfying.Decor could use a little work to make the place feel more homey.

Awesome place! The protein coffees are fantastic! A must try!

Absolutely my favorite coffee house! A wonderful kind and supportive workplace for those who might otherwise have difficulties. Then pair that with the BEST gluten free breakfast options around. I drive 25 minutes just to pick up breakfast items for my family and always stop by when we are near.

The iced hot chocolate with crushed ice is amazing! The gentleman that suggested this drink encouraged me to try something new. Now, I am hooked. I have stopped in a few more times and ordered the same drink. I also think the mission of RISE Coffee & Tea is admirable.

Rise has delicious cold brew! Way more tasty that nearby chains... also love their customer service and inclusive hiring practices!

I think its great what theyre doing. I go once or twice a week for my steamed coconut and almond milk (no coffee products), and its perfect all the time. Kudos to the beautiful manager and her team of great ones.

Super friendly people. They make the customer feel happy.

Love having this coffee shop around the corner from my office. They brighten my day every time I stop by :)

Rise coffee and tea is the perfect spot to have a delicious cup of coffee and a little something to go with it! My daughter Rita and I really enjoyed the stop - its spacious and at the same time cozy inside, there are also tables outside, everyone is smiling and ready to explain every item on a menu.

A great place to relax, get great service, and give back..all at the same time. You will go for the good coffee, teas, and food, but youll stay for the uplifting atmosphere and big smilies😊

Rise Coffee and Tea is an excellent restaurant to enjoy homemade sweets, the most delicious eggs made in an unique way, snd the most delicious coffee.I wish that I lived closer, I’d be there every day.

An awesome coffee shop, healthy options and THE BEST coffee you will find! Plus they employ people with special needs♥️ how awesome

Great coffee.. you can even get a coffee flight. Yummy treats. Hot and iced tea. Drive thru or a nice indoor set up. All with great service

Awesome spot! Love their coffee and cute location!

This charming coffee shop is a stand out! Even though it is conveniently located around the corner from my office, I would definitely go out of my way to patronize this establishment. Nicole and her team of employees make my heart full every time I pop in! A must try and youll instantly be a regular :)

Good expresso and a great brownie! Servers were very attentive!

I love the people here and their coffee and tea and healthy snacks!

Lets keep this place running!

Gluten free Peanut butter brownies 😍

Amazing place with great coffee but even more amazing people. I was greeted immediately when I walked in. I got the nitro coffee. Something was a little off with the machine. It didnt provide the foam at the top but the coffee still tasted incredible! And, she kindly gave me a coupon for next time. With all this crazy stuff going on in the world, it is very refreshing visit a such a positive place that is doing incredible things for those with special needs. It had a very positive vibe and I definitely look forward to going back.

Friendly staff, great tea, and a great place to get some work done.

So appreciate that the amazing staff was wearing masks. We really enjoyed our brunch food options, and I highly recommend the coffee flight! Everything was great, including the owner.

Great place to get coffee or tea and get some work done. The staff is friendly and professional.

Great coffee and easy drive thru experience!

First, its a great concept, give young special needs adults a job. Second, they have buddies who are sometimes young adults themselves, which means they are learning. Lastly, give a great local coffee shop (with healthy treats) and workout place for our community. I mean really, whats not to love??

Overall, I did not enjoy my time here. I enjoyed a turmeric tonic, but the blueberry coffee cake muffin tasted like cardboard with some sugar on top. The staff seemed disorganized and confused as to how to do things. They were also loud and constantly walking all over the place. The lighting was also very bright and I was cold the whole time.

Excellent service, kind baristas! Clean coffeeshop and bright and cheery. And, my chai tea was great. Better price and product than SBUX!

Its got a hidden location, but there were folks in and out. I also saw the drive thru was busy. Really cute inside, but nobody sitting around. We sat outside at bistro table. Coffee was good. I had a cold brew. Nice. I hope they can hang in there.

Fabulous little coffee shop. The staff was incredibly courteous and answered all of my questions about the menu, also had a Latte that was delicious but didnt blow my calories for the day. Highly recommend as a healthier (and cuter!) alternative to big chain coffee restaurants.

I love the service, the coffee and most of all what this establishment stands for. I would go out of my way to make a stop here over a chain shop, the drinks and food are that good! This place is SO worth supporting!

The people that work here are amazing! Always smiling and happy to serve you. The coffee is delicious! Healthier food options too.

We found it! Great coffee, friendly owner & terrific breakfast. So nice to enjoy a clean space and wonderful service. Our new neighborhood coffee shop, hangout spot. Thank you!

Cute place with a slightly different take on coffee. Also offers an array of tea selections and a small menu as well. Seating isnt too comfortable and not many plugs available to plug-in. However, very friendly staff. They have an event room in the back you can rent out for $25 an hour which is an added plus.

Not only is their coffee phenomenal, but the staff is so nice and loving. My new favorite place.

I used to stop at Starbucks every morning, but saw a someone holding a sign for a local coffee shop that was just up the way from my usual Starbucks. I decided to give it a try and I’m so glad I did! Coffee is delicious, and my nephew has special needs so seeing them employ others with special needs just makes my heart happy!

I’d give my money to a wonderful place like RISE over starbucks or dunkin any day . It is so much more than a cup of coffee . My sister has special needs and her job means everything to her - please don’t underestimate how much this job means to the wonderful people working there . It is an amazing coffee shop! I will be back and will be sure to spread the word! Thank you.

Very friendly staff, and I love that they employ our developmentally delayed and those on the autism spectrum. The only challenge I have is, the employees wear masks, but its not enforced with patrons.

Great coffee shop, friendly and spacious. Coffee and service were excellent. A wonderful addition to the neighborhood 👍

Great place. Skip Starbucks and stop here!

The BEST - organic, locally roasted coffee.. So many fun healthy options. Friendly staff. Cant say enough good things. Support your local community business. You will be glad you did.

This place is so cute. Most of the baristas have special needs and I think that’s so amazing that they’re given an opportunity to work and make other people’s day. The barista recommended a drink to me when I couldn’t make up my mind. My tea was tasty AND healthy, and I could even order my drinks with CBD oil! I’ve never been to a coffee shop quite like this, I definitely plan on coming back!

My new favorite coffee shop! This place is great! Locally owned and the beans are roasted right here in Woodstock @ Woodstock Coffee Company. The employees are very friendly and it was a joy to spend time grabbing a cup of coffee and chatting with them.I had the Shine Strong, my wife had the Morning Mojo hot tea and my daughter had their GFDF Chocolate Muffin. They have all day breakfast (egg white frittatas, crust less quiche, egg white sandwich, cilantro lime chicken burrito). It is a family friendly business of which we will become regular customers. They even have a drive thru window for those who dont have the time for conversation. Highly recommended by The Andrews Family!

Working there is fun!

I live 30 minutes away, i’ve been here twice, and i will be going out of my way to go again. i LOVE this place. the vibes are immaculate. i will be coming here to get my school work done, meeting up with friends, and first dates! i cannot reccomend a better coffee place. there is simply nothing better. if you go, get the shirini macaroons💛 theyre amazing

Great coffee shop with an awesome mission. The shop and staff definitely RISE above the chain coffee shops.

Great place to enjoy your coffee! Very friendly servers! Must visit!
