About us
Brewed with intention
We started as a six-seat espresso bar with one rule: make every cup as if it were our own. Eight years later the café is bigger, but the rule hasn’t changed.
Our story
More than a coffee stop
Roast & Aroma opened in 2018 on a quiet corner of Mercer Street. We roasted in the back, baked before sunrise and learned every regular’s order by the second week.
Today we work with twelve partner farms, roast twice a week and still make every croissant by hand. The space grew. The care didn’t shrink.
