About
Press Coffee is a Phoenix-based specialty roaster and multi-location café group anchored by a dedicated roastery-café at 10443 N 32nd St in the city's northeast corridor. Founding date and founder name are not documented in available public sources. The operation's clearest distinction is daily on-site roasting, visible to café guests, at a two-story facility that opened as the brand's flagship in 2019.
By early 2020, the brand had grown to eight locations, according to Brian's Coffee Spot, a specialty coffee travel review publication that visited the roastery that January. Phoenix Magazine reported the roastery opening in July 2019, framing it as an expansion of a brand that had been operating cafés in the Phoenix market for some years prior. The company runs a mobile loyalty app and a subscription program, suggesting a customer base that extends well beyond walk-in traffic.
Roasting takes place daily at the North 32nd Street location, and the company offers public Coffee 101 sessions based on the cupping format used by specialty coffee professionals to evaluate green lots and finished roasts — an accessible entry point into sensory education that implies at least some alignment with specialty industry norms. Retail blends carry descriptors like sweet tobacco, dark chocolate, and black currant. Details on sourcing relationships, green coffee procurement, or roasting equipment are not available in current public sources.

Coffee & Beans Review
Press Coffee received coverage from Phoenix Magazine in July 2019 when the roastery location opened, and was subsequently reviewed by Brian's Coffee Spot in January 2020 — a specialty-focused travel blog that profiles independent roasters and cafés globally. The Brian's Coffee Spot write-up placed the roastery within the context of Press's broader eight-location footprint at the time. No competition results, barista championship placements, or specialty trade press features appear in available citations.
The roastery location at North 32nd Street runs a full café menu — coffee, loose-leaf tea, pastries, and food service through 1:30pm — inside a space designed around varied seating: productive work tables, counter bar seats, covered patio, and a second-floor open-air level with natural wood finishes. Daily roasting on the floor is visible from the café, and Coffee 101 cupping classes are offered through Eventbrite reservations. Catering is available for off-site delivery or pickup, and roasted coffee ships nationwide via the online store and a subscription program.

What Press Coffee - The Roastery Roasts
Press Coffee's signature house blend, always available on drip at their street-side cafes. It is described as a wonderfully drinkable coffee suited for starting your day.
milk chocolate, nougat, oats
A naturally processed Gesha sourced from Press's own Volcán Valley estate in Panama (1,800–2,300 masl), where fermenting and drying the seed inside the fruit yields a well-integrated strawberry note alongside a pleasant jasmine aromatic and a clean tangerine acidity on the finish. Released only four times a year, it represents the pinnacle of their reserve program.

watermelon, green apple
A limited coffee blend with notes of sweet tobacco, dark chocolate, and black currant, available as part of a gift set.
