Reviews of Brown Lightning Bros. Raglan Roast.

J. B.

Great coffee! Coffee pods was also good! Lovely package:) 50c for a takeaway cup. They asked me to show my Vaccine passport even takeaways.

N. N.

Recommended by friends. Said there were prize winning coffee beans. Bake it yourself. As soon as I entered the store, I had a strong smell of coffee. The staff in the store are very friendly

S.

Always amazing coffee here! The staff are always happy to serve you. The cheap coffee is even more of a bonus, only $3 for a flat white! Could not recommend more.

B. S.

Simply the BEST! Always our go to coffee when we arrive at Raglan & Hamilton. I'm proud of Waikato roastery doing a great job better than elsewhere in Auckland. The taste is genuine deep dark full of aromas, not like those hipster acidic coffee. Baristas are friendly, the atmosphere got some good vibes like you are invited to the back garage of your mates. Don't miss out the discounted take out coffee when you grab the coffee bean bag. Great deal! Great service! and Happy customers :)

J. L.

Apart from the very best coffee in the known galaxy, the people are unpretentious and deliver perfect service. They even make pods that work in the Nespresso machine. I might be older than Jesus but I’m still capable of being a fanboy. Go you good things.

K.

Never disappointed with the coffee, great staff and the laid back atmosphere just tops this place off. My go to every week

S. M.

Cute coffee place. Good coffee, nice staff. Definitely coming back

A.

Amazing Beans!! We buy kilos to make at home, the coffee here is amazing as well, some of the best in Hamilton and dare i say it Nz!! Great fast service as well as lots of seats and car parks makes this an awesome place to stop in. Do yourself a favor and get a coffee here ASAP!

D. K.

Loved the coffee but I did feel a bit like I wasn't cool enough for this place...

R. L.

No Beach Access, but there certainly is awesome smooth roasted coffee. AND Gluten free cookies!! They sell the beans in sealed bags as well. Such a great layed-back atmosphere and heaps of lounge chairs to chill and savour the best coffee in Hamilton. Keep up the awesomeness guys. We Love your place.

G. S.

Amazing coffee. Great place to work from. Free WiFi.

A. M.

A unique vibe and innovative interior design with a very reasonable prices. Highly recommend. Try the apricot fully seedy cookie

A. S.

Honestly the best service 🤌 very friendly helpful staff and the guy service was more than multitasking!! Great beans too!

R.

What stunning coffee! We had two non-coffee drinkers with us, so we felt a bit like we should have brought more than teo of us, but we were (as the coffee drinkers there), in absolute heaven. Not bitter, very smooth; we could have sat there most of the day. The atmosphere is surfer-chic and has amazing character. If you have a few moments, and you're keen for a really good cuppa, this is the place to go if you're in Hamilton. Highly recommended.

J. M.

Coffee. Cheap espresso coffee, freshly roasted. Grab a kg of beans and a coffee on the go. There are some tasty sweet treats to go with your coffee. There is no kitchen on site, so don't expect a feed. Excellent place to catch up with friends over a cuppa, lots of seating and a great atmosphere.

G. T.

Best coffee beans for use at home always fresh and haven't been sitting on a super market shelf for weeks. The place has an awesome vibe and cool staff.

L. B.

Just received my first order of fresh roasted coffee beans "brown lightening" and "Mocha java". I am sitting here enjoying the brown lightening great tasting coffee and can't wait to try the Mocha Java. Great coffee at a great price hassle free order and delivery. We will keep ordering from Raglan Roast because its the best coffee tasting experience and believe me we have tasted lots. We hope to visit the coffee shop on our next visit to Raglan.

G. M.

Best coffee. Ever. Laid back vibe. DJ on the Saturday. Loved it.

A. R.

Yum! The coffee is a delicious dark roast with a gorgeous aftertaste. And the cafe itself has a super chill vibe and is full of awesomely comfy sofas.

W. K.

Very good coffee, as per ordered and service...beautiful counter staff id exspect nothing less from the Raglan roast area.

A.

Best coffee! Will travel for a Raglan Roast ☕

R. A.

100% my favourite coffee in Hamilton! Such a cool vibe, really quick and friendly service, and a really nice place to chill with out feeling like you are being rushed out. ☕️ 👌😆

R. M.

This is one of my favourite places to go for coffee. Super chill/relaxed atmosphere. Coffees are consistently well made and are probably one of the cheaper coffees in Hamilton too. If you get the chance, it's worth checking out!

J.

Great coffee (my partner's favourite) and the tea is a dollar or two for a mug properly priced for the non coffee drinkers. A great non pretentious place

D. T.

The old raglan roast - Great coffee. Very fast service, these guys churn out the coffees amazingly fast and is very reasonably priced. They have a loyalty book system where you can buy a card and get your coffees at a ridiculously cheap price. from the main road it doesn’t look like a coffee shop, it’s tucked in behind at the back. This is one of the better shops in Hamilton for coffee. Heap of parking, happy staff, great black laborador and most importantly great coffee. This place is busy, however the service is so fast it doesn’t matter when it is. A recommended spot (local) for those in Hamilton or for anyone going through town

J. v. R.

Very casual layout with large overstuffed couches, different in colour and style. Random chairs and tables. Great coffee roasted in the workshop adds to the ambiance. It is an old workshop. A different place altogether, but very good coffee.

m. K.

amazing coffees and hot chocolates great place even have a game of darts for a box of beer😂😂😉😁

L. W.

Great atmosphere to chill and drink your coffee. On a Wednesday there is a great artisan hit dog stand out front also sell a range of sauerkraut, Kimchi and pesto. Go chat with Maria the maker of all the Good Bugs range and have a taste test. The frankfurters are all good and tasty, no cheap fillers here. Will add photos soon.

e. e.

Service is always 5 stars like the coffee. The prepay book system is old skool but super cool. The sounds are on!

C. W.

Delicious Coffee and a great price, venue is a massive warehouse filled with couches and tables, gives off a really cool beach batch vibe. Great place to come and grab coffee and chill out.

C. M.

Best coffee in Te Rapa. The only beans I buy

A. L.

Best coffee in town! If you get a chance, stop by and visit. The boss Tony took his time to show us round the workshop where they make their famous, hand made fully customised coffee roasters. Definitely worth a visit. A hidden gem, just like the original Raglan Roast in Raglan!

L. B.

The team at Brown Lightning Bros. are an awesome bunch and create an amazing atmosphere at their relaxed cafe. It's an awesome place to chill out and catch up with friends. Best of all their service and coffee is consistently brilliant!

M. G.

Great coffee at an even better price. Plenty of free parking and it Smells great with all the coffee roasting out the back

A. T.

One of my two favourite coffee spots!! Their vibes make you feel like you’re in Raglan. Rustic and Open is definitely my style. Lovely service and BEAUTIFUL coffees

Friendly service, delicious coffee, awesome atmosphere. Open early for tradies. Only bad thing about it when the carpark is full!

E. M.

What a cool place. The coffee is superb. If your lucky you might be able to see them roasting the coffee beans. Worth taking your bike for ride around the block.

T.

It's a work in progress, So don't expect more than great freshly ground coffee. Set in a back shed, the café is in what can be described as a workshop with basic tables and seating.

W. K.

Great coffee, friendly staff, quick service, well priced, tidy, will definitely go back.

S. O.

The best coffee I have ever tasted and such a quirky and interesting spot to hang out! This would be a 5 star but the customer service is a little rusty
