About Square Mile Coffee Roasters

Community reputation · Reddit

Cult favorite· sentiment 85/100

Square Mile is widely regarded as a staple of the UK specialty coffee scene and is frequently cited alongside other top-tier indie roasters. The brand is closely associated with James Hoffmann, which contributes to its high visibility and reputation for quality. While generally well-regarded for their consistent output, some users have noted occasional quality control issues, such as finding debris in their beans. Their offerings, particularly their Red Brick and Sweet Shop blends, are common recommendations for espresso enthusiasts.
