About Root & Branch Coffee
We would like to introduce ourselves briefly. We are Root & Branch Coffee. In 2016 we opened our doors in an unassuming street in Belfast. Our adorable little space was big enough to fit a roaster and coffee bar. As Belfast's first dedicated micro roaster, we had no model, no one to turn to for advice, we were just determined to connect the dots between community and culture, coffee chemistry and taste.
Memories of the war conflict still lingered in the city, but the growth of social spaces with the smell of good coffee testified to a new era. As part of our live acoustic Sunday sessions, our little courtyard was often packed week after week as friends and traveling musicians played, sang and drank coffee with us.
A growing collective of loyal customers and future friends supported us, the media generously praised us, and we grew. Soon two new cafes were added and we developed our Irish cuisine which celebrates the best of seasonal local produce prepared in a way that echoes the culinary traditions of the past but with a fresh take on creativity.
During these changes, our values have remained unchanged. Working with green coffee farmers and importers we trust, we will roast and bring you the sustainable and delicious coffee we love.
