"Situated in Richmond’s increasingly trendy Scott’s Addition, Lineage Coffee impressed me from the moment I walked through the door. First came the unmistakable aroma of a great coffee shop, a subtle cue of good things ahead. Next, a warm and genuine greeting from the staff. And finally, the realization that everything was amazing. . When trying a new café, I always order a cappuccino. It’s the ultimate litmus test for me: the quality of the espresso, restraint with the milk, and whether it all comes together in a balanced, creamy harmony without anything overpowering the rest. Lineage absolutely nailed it. I also sampled the almond croissant, which was just as exceptional. Beautiful in its slightly reckless appearance, belying the perfectly flaky outer layers and a soft, sweet interior. Outstanding. The ambiance was another highlight. The vibe is relaxed and inviting, a coffee shop that also sells books and a few thoughtfully chosen goods. The space is well laid out, with high ceilings that give it an open, airy feel. It’s industrial without being cold, and yes, there’s a couch. Why more coffee shops don’t include couches will always baffle me. Bravo! For anyone unfamiliar, Richmond, VA is a haven for coffee lovers, with at least half a dozen exceptional shops and more seemingly opening all the time. Lineage has firmly earned its place on that list for me, and I’ll definitely be back."
