Curator's Notes
Founded in Providence in 2012 — starting from a single cart at weddings and a downtown pop-up — Bolt Coffee Co. has grown into a Rhode Island institution, with three cafe locations, a full roasting facility, and a Food & Wine Best Roaster in Rhode Island nod to their name. What sets them apart is the depth of expertise behind the operation: serious roasting chops, sustainable green coffee sourcing, and a genuine commitment to their staff and community. We tasted through a lot of New England roasters before landing here, and Bolt earned their spot immediately.
From the Roaster
We aim to foster meaningful connections by bringing people together in our spaces. We’re grateful to do so through intentionally sourced, roasted, and prepared specialty coffee. Initially offering coffee from a single cart at weddings and a downtown pop-up location in 2012, Bolt now serves the Providence community from two retail locations and a production facility on Smith Hill.

"I only like dark coffees. This one is a super star! I like mine black in a large cup with two lumps of sugar.One friend takes hers straight. Another with whipped cream. However you like your coffee, Lites Out is a winner!"

"it was okay, didn't really get the fruit notes, but it was a smooth and bold taste. Nice middle of the line coffee, but not one I would purchase again probably"

"It's not bad at all but it's not what I expected from the tasting notes. I use a Melitta pour over cone, and at various temperatures and grind sizes I get a lot of oak from this blend, very reminiscent of whiskey. I can't really perceive the sweet tea or orange peel."
