Always on the lookout for great roasters (I generally buy a bag of fresh roasted when I am visiting someplace). So who is your favorite local-ish (not necessarily around the corner, but at least within a reasonable driving distance) roaster?
For me:
- Virginia (northern): Cafe Kreyol
- Virginia (eastern shore): Eastern Shore Coastal Roasting Company
- Virginia (Hampton Roads): Pale Horse Coffee
Oslo: Tim Wendelboe and Fuglen coffee. When I used to live in Copenhagen: Prolog and Coffee Collective
I’d like to add Supreme Roastworks as well. And if we’re including Norway in general I’ve had some really good coffee from Langøra Kaffebrenneri
We’re going on a cruise next year from Reykjavik to London, with ports in Alesund, Geiranger, and Bergen. I’ll have to keep my eyes out for any of the above. Thanks!
I was just in Bergen and I had Langøra at a small, cosy café. “Det Lille Kaffekompaniet”. It’s close to Fløibanen, which is a sort of railway up to the top of Fløyen which has a beautiful of the city of Bergen. Also worth a visit of the weather is nice.
Same. Stumptown
We also drink our coffee sideways up here in the upper left. The 45th parallel is crazy.
UK Midlands - Yellow Bourbon in Northampton, Outpost in Nottingham
Im new to Chicago. Any recommendations here?
Drive up a bit further on the eastern shore and check out Rise Up. They have a number of physical locations to go to. Great food at most of them too.
We head up via the Eastern Shore to Annapolis with our Motorhome all the time. I noticed they have two locations in Annapolis, and we’ll be there for Labor Day Weekend - so I will definitely check them out!
Their frozen hot chocolate is delicious too.
Thanks for the steer. They are now a go-to on our way back down to VA Beach when we camp in Annapolis.
You are welcome! What did you end up getting?
North West of the UK - Atkinsons Coffee in Lancaster
Their São Francisco coffee has been my daily driver for the last 2 years.
