Testimonials
This place is my go to place after a bad week, a place I go to when I need inspiration, or just a place to go when I'm craving an amazing cup of coffee. I've never had a bad experience here and I feel like 5 stars is an understatement. I happily drive an hour here just to get multiple cups of coffee and go back home

Their coffee menu is well down and their latte was the best I had in Richmond. They also sell breakfast biscuits, waffles, and locally baked goods (if you like donuts, try their chocolate glazed donuts). If you love coffee, Ironclad is the only place you need to go!

As a former barista, this is easily the best coffee in Richmond, there’s no contest. Quality baristas and the perfect cappuccino. I’d go back for every cup.

Our Philosophy
When it comes to our “bread and butter” (i.e. roasting coffee), we take what we like to call a “micro-morphosis” philosophy. This entails carefully monitoring the minute changes that happen rapidly throughout the roasting process through painstaking testing and development of optimal roast profiles based on the unique characteristics of each individual coffee. Indeed, there is no such thing as a “one size fits all” approach to roasting coffee. Artisan roasting is equal parts art and science.
We purchase all our coffees from growers and farms who cultivate, harvest, and process their produce with tremendous care — and they do so with sound ethics and sustainability in mind. After all, it’s ultimately about what’s in the cup! We’re driven to give you the best coffee possible in your cup every time, and to do so in an approachable way without any of the “fimble-famble.”
