Lift Coffee Shop - Richmond

Update late 2023: Disappointed Lift has raised the coffee prices by over 8%, pushing my usual drink well beyond my self imposed $7 threshold for an espresso drink (which, when I type it out, seems so expensive and bougie...but I tell myself: it's one coffee a few times a week AND I don't drink alchohol, so there's that). I'm sorry to have to cut Lift out of my rotation, because it's pretty convenient, it's good coffee and the people there are great. I get it: people gotta make a living, inflation, etc. All good and I wish them the best. For the record, there are still many other [good] coffee options in the area that [for now at least] are significantly less expensive. Original review from late 2022: Good coffee that seems priced on par with other cafés in the area. Really tasty breakfast burrito, but more expensive than other options nearby.

We don’t live in Richmond, but every time we pass through we stop here! We’re hopelessly addicted to their Banana Nut Bread Latte

Got a latte with oat milk to go in my own cup. Service was great and coffee was ready quickly, despite how busy they were

Bagel sandwiches without holes Wish for a chorizo option to make spicy sausage spicier

Food and coffee are very good here. Would like if they can improve the atmosphere and the seating arrangements
