Our 18,000 square foot roasterie building is part of a group of cavernous bow-truss buildings dating back to the 1850s, recently renovated into a beverage Mecca called Rockwell on the River. At our roasterie, we roast and taste coffee…well, all day long—that’s actually our job!
Our roasting machines are total steam-punk vintage gorgeousness—one even dates back to the 1930s! It’s an old-world process with a modern flair. We have an 18-foot tall grinder that we call The Iron Giant, (for obvious reasons).
Every single batch is triple checked for quality and consistency using our senses, our certifications and our nerdy tools like laser color analysis because… well… #science This is all to say we’re careful, and we care about you.
Our neighbors at Rockwell on the River include Dolce Arte Cafe, Judson and Moore Distillery, Chicago Electric Boat Rental, and Wateriders Canoe and Kayak Rental. Come for the coffee, and stay for the whiskey, and boats, ceramics and more.
Or buy beans next door at Dolce Arte Cafe!
