Rise Up Coffee has been an independent small-batch coffee roaster and retailer since March 2005. Rise Up originated from an explosive combination of ambition and circumstance. Tim Cureton had what would prove to be a life changing coffee experience while traveling home from the Peace Corps service. His love affair with great coffee had begun. Utilizing a $16,000 business loan, Cureton along with co-founder Abby West, opened the first Rise Up Coffee. Rise Up began as a coffee trailer, before there were TV shows and movies about food trucks. What started in a parking lot in a town with a population of 1,029 has evolved into five high-volume cafe locations, a very active online store and many new exciting wholesale relationships.
Rise Up is known for its people. Now staffed by over a hundred amazing people, among them is Tim’s lifelong friend and business partner, Noah Kegley who joined the company in 2010 and now serves as Head Roaster.
Recently voted ‘Maryland’s Best Coffee’, Rise Up represents 15 years of total dedication to sustainable coffees, Certified Organic + Certified Fair Trade.

Rise Up has some of the best coffee in the area. It's evident that the people here care about brewing high-quality coffee filled with great and diverse flavors.
The art on the walls and bags of coffee is very cool. It really contributes to making this place feel lively and vibrant.
When we came they were out of breakfast meats in the kitchen, which was a bummer. We were really excited to try the breakfast burritos!
In all, it's an awesome spot. It's definitely worth the trip.

I got the Chocolate banana coffee smoothie and it’s a sugar bombo, I loved it. The nitro with regular milk was ok. Service was fast. Friendly attention at the counter.

Excellent drinks, friendly service. We were a little bit late for the breakfast burritos but those look fantastic as well so we would love to come back for those sometime. The cinnamon scone is outstanding. My only suggestion would be to turn the heat up a little. We walked outside and it was literally warmer outside and it's only 54° out! Other than that, great place and I really appreciate the long opening hours.
