The Roastery · Flagship

A theatre built around the roast.

Our flagship is where every Kestrel coffee begins. Watch green beans turn golden in the brass roaster, follow them through copper pipes overhead, and taste them minutes later at the marble bar.

Walk the Roastery

Five stations, each with its own craft. Choose one to step inside.

The Brass Roasting Cask

Our 30-foot brass cask rests fresh-roasted beans before they travel overhead through copper pipes, straight into the silos above the espresso counter. Listen for the soft rattle of beans passing above you.
