Founded in 2014 by Andreas Astrup, ROAST Islands Brygge aims to establish a transparent and direct trading platform for coffee farmers and coffee enthusiasts. The company seeks to create a “shared value” system by eliminating intermediaries, motivating farmers to focus on producing high-quality coffee, and allowing customers to pay a fair price for their hard work.
At ROAST Islands Brygge, the team believes that roasting is a crucial step in the coffee-making process. That’s why they roast the beans right in the shop to ensure that customers can see, smell, and taste freshly roasted beans as soon as they enter the cafe. Whether you’re in the mood for a Cappuccino, Pour Over, or Espresso, the friendly staff at ROAST are always on hand to assist you in selecting the right flame-roasted beans and brewing the perfect cup of coffee.
ROAST has three different coffee shops in Copenhagen, each with its own unique atmosphere and design. The flagship store is located in the vibrant Vesterbro neighborhood, while the other two shops can be found in the trendy Christianshavn and Østerbro areas.
If you’re in the København S neighborhood, you can visit ROAST Islands Brygge on Vestmannagade 4. The coffee shop boasts a minimalist yet cozy interior and is a great place to relax and enjoy a cup of coffee or work on your laptop. ROAST is open from 7 AM to 6 PM on weekdays and 9 AM to 6 PM on weekends, making it the perfect spot for an early morning caffeine fix or a weekend coffee date.
