What a radical coffee shop!! It’s such a great atmosphere with amazing people working here. They are pretty cool. I just had a black coffee & croissant, but they were great. Had a wonderful conversation with a young man named, William. Great interaction. Love talking with people. We should do more of that! Definitely recommend this coffee shop! Love the name too!

Deeper Roots Coffee on Race Street in Cincinnati is the kind of coffee shop that feels like a little haven in the hustle and bustle of the city. Whether you’re in for a quick caffeine fix or looking for a quiet place to relax, this café checks all the boxes.

Festive Vibes: The Holiday Menu
One of the highlights of visiting Deeper Roots during the winter season is their holiday menu. The drinks are crafted with care and creativity, offering festive flavors that perfectly match the season. The peppermint mocha is a must-try—it’s rich, creamy, and has just the right balance of chocolate and mint to make every sip feel like a holiday treat. It made me wish the large size were even larger. The seasonal menu is a great excuse to stop in more than once, as they always offer something special you’ll want to try before it’s gone.

Paying is a breeze here, as they offer easy, contactless payments. Whether you’re using Apple Pay, Google Pay, or just tapping your card, the process is quick and seamless. It’s the little things like this that make the experience so smooth and enjoyable, especially when you’re in a rush.

Deeper Roots is more than just good coffee—it’s also an ideal spot to unwind. The seating area is lovely and quiet, making it perfect for catching up on work, reading a book, or just enjoying your drink in peace. The minimalist decor and warm atmosphere give the space a modern yet cozy feel. Even when it’s busy, it somehow maintains a calm, inviting vibe.

The Only Challenge: Parking
As much as I love Deeper Roots, it’s worth noting that parking in the Findlay Market area can be tricky, especially during peak times. It’s best to plan ahead and give yourself some extra time to find a spot. That said, once you’re inside with your drink in hand, you’ll forget all about the parking hassle.

Final Thoughts
Deeper Roots Coffee on Race Street is a gem in Cincinnati’s coffee scene. From their delicious holiday drinks to the quiet, welcoming seating area, it’s a perfect spot to relax and recharge. The modern convenience of tap-to-pay is a nice bonus, and while the parking can be a bit of a challenge, the overall experience makes it more than worth it.

Pro Tip: Visit during off-peak hours if you’re worried about parking—and don’t leave without trying the peppermint mocha!

This coffee shop is a true gem. The friendly service made me feel at home, while the vibrant city vibe added a unique charm to my visit. I enjoyed my coffee in the cozy back room, but they have storefront and outdoor seating as well. I highly recommend the honey bear latte – it’s an absolute delight! This place is a must-visit.

My macadamia milk latte was divine! Came 30 min before closing (ugh yes, I know and also h8 me) but was given incredible customer service + a delicious bev all the same. Their sweetness levels aren’t overwhelming at all, and the intentionality behind their future goals as an org listed clearly by the entrance is admirable. The open layout that ensures there isn’t a divide between the bar and the customer is truly unique- and the bar itself was clean (way to go barista!). 12/10 would recommend.

I came here with my two young children today before heading out of town. The baristas had complimentary hot chocolate waiting for them (complete with masterful latte art) when we came out of the restroom, which absolutely made our whole day. Then one of my children spilled the whole thing all over the floor as we were walking out. Both baristas were so understanding and accommodating and immediately made her another drink. Many coffee shops I’ve been to have clearly been annoyed with the presence of my children, so the experience of being so welcomed at this one is not one I will forget soon. Will definitely be back next time we are in the area 🙂

A great specialty coffee spot with pour-over available, located just outside of Findlay. I enjoyed the Cold Nitro Coffee—super velvety and smooth, the perfect choice to satisfy my coffee craving on a hot afternoon.

Had a fantastic cortado here. Knowledgeable staff (I knew exactly what I wanted, but I observed their knowledge through another customer). Prices are about what I'd expect for good coffee in a city. Grab one to go and fortify yourself for Findlay Market.

Delightful little shop across from Findlay Market. We were there for the opening day parade, and sat at the little tables out front to watch.

Wonderful yummy treats freshly baked. Amazingly friendly service! The coffee was steeped individually for about two minutes and was very good. I saw a sign that they make babushka fresh to order - wow! - I wish I had ordered some... You don't see that everyday! We will be back for sure!
