Albert Rd0.2 mi from Woodstock centrelast reviewed April 2026

A family roastery with Italian-Brazilian roots, built around a single-minded focus on Mogiana single-origin beans. Come for the espresso, leave with a bag that smells like it was roasted this week.

Italian-Brazilian family roastery with a seven-year cult following built on Mogiana beans.

What we love

  • •Own roastery with Italian-Brazilian heritage; Mogiana is the house single-origin
  • •100% Arabica sourcing, flavour described by regulars as chocolaty and intense
  • •Espresso is the preferred format; holds character black and with milk
  • •Beans roasted fresh; the aroma on delivery is part of the product
  • •Supplies homes and offices across Cape Town, not just walk-in trade

Cedar Coffee Roasters★★★ Purist

Winston is a South African Barista Champion and roasts every bean in the cup. Order a single-origin pour-over; it's what serious coffee travellers cite when asked for the best they've had.

Run Rabbit Run Coffee Roastery★★ Specialty

One person sources the beans, roasts them, and pulls your shot, all from a counter inside a Woodstock clothing shop. The Kenyan single origins rotate; ask what's on.

Flatmountain Coffee Roasters★★ Specialty

A working roastery in Woodstock where the espresso is pulled with the same care as the sourcing. Come for the shot; leave with a bag of whatever single origin they're running.
