Specialty Coffee Shops in Brooklyn: frequently asked

What are the best specialty coffee shops in Brooklyn?
Sey Coffee, Devoción, Variety, and Partners are among the best specialty coffee shops in Brooklyn. Each serves specialty-grade beans, and many roast on-site. Filter by neighborhood to find the serious cups near you.
Which Brooklyn coffee roasters roast on-site?
Sey in Bushwick, Devoción in Williamsburg, and Variety all roast their coffee on-site. Roasting in-house is why the coffee tastes the way the roaster intended rather than after a long wholesale journey.
What makes a coffee shop "specialty"?
Specialty coffee is graded 80+ on the Specialty Coffee Association cupping scale and is usually single-origin or carefully blended, then roasted to highlight the bean rather than mask it. Every shop on this page clears that bar.
