Atkinsons has been roasting in Lancaster since 1837 and is still the most serious coffee operation in the city. The board names producers, the retail floor is stocked for taking them home.
Atkinsons are one of the oldest roasting names in Britain. The Music Room is the sharpest address in their Lancaster operation: single origins on espresso and filter, tasting notes on every cup.
Atkinson's Coffee Roasters flagship, which settles Lancaster's sourcing question. The cappuccino earns specific tasting praise; the rest of the menu repays the same attention.
