Tasting various coffees for quality and flavor.

The Story of Steep

Steep + Brew was founded in 1979 as a cafe where people could gather to share conversation and build a sense of community. That same inviting approach has inspired our green coffee buyers to seek out and build relationships with some of the finest coffee farmers in the world. We work closely with them to ensure we are getting the best beans from around the globe.

A strict adherence to exceptional bean selection, high quality standards, and freshness has helped us to be considered among the industry’s top specialty coffee roasters, and our coffees frequently receive recognition. Honored coffees include our Breakfast Blend, Kona Blend and Costa Rican.

To ensure that our customers only experience the freshest possible coffee, Steep & Brew roasts all coffee to order; delivers coffee with our own trucks and drivers to grocery stores within 72 hours of roasting, and usually ships customer’s orders to their homes within 24 hours. Our coffee isn’t stored in distribution warehouses like other coffees, which can take many months to even reach a store shelf!

Although it’s been decades since we operated out of the living room of a home, our memories of those comfortable living room conversations over coffee have evolved into our mission to help you make your life more enjoyable through great coffee!
