Our story
Independent. Locally owned. Built around one good idea.
Built around doing the work right.
Origin Coffee opened in 2021 by three friends who'd worked at big specialty coffee shops in Portland, Brooklyn, and Austin. We wanted to do an honest neighborhood coffee bar — proper extraction, good music, real ceramic, and beans you could actually taste.
We source from a small group of importers who pay farmers fairly and trace their lots back to specific farms (not just "Ethiopian Yirgacheffe" but the actual co-op + processing date). Our bean menu rotates every 2-4 weeks as lots cycle in. We tell you what you're drinking on the chalkboard.
Our pastries come from the bakery next door — they bake at 4am, we get the trays at 6am. Same scones, croissants, and tarts the bakery sells at twice the price out front. We do not have a kids menu, juice, or smoothies. We do coffee, and we do it well.
