The vegetarian brunch menu is the decoy: Dear Green and Obadiah rotate through a La Marzocco Linea PB, ground on a Mahlkonig EK43, with manual brews alongside the batch.

Aberdeen's brunch crowd doesn't know they're drinking Linea PB espresso.

Fearless Coffee★★ Specialty

A coffee-first spot on Rosemount Place built around beans from indie roaster Dark Arts, for anyone after a clean shot of single-origin espresso or a slower pourover.

Third Circle Coffee★★ Specialty

A record-player soundtrack sets the mood, but the coffee does the work: batch brew and long black get the same attention as espresso, with guest roasts rotating in from other Aberdeen independents rather than one house blend.

The Wichery by Figment★★ Specialty

Figment roasts its own beans in Aberdeen every week, then pours the single origins through espresso and pour-over instead of just bagging them for retail, with a proper food and wine list to keep you around.
