Barista Exchange

the world's premiere online community for the specialty coffee industry

Recently i've heard rave reviews about Monmouth Coffee in london and some other places in the USA in regards to Filter Coffee....
Everything from filter coffee stands to waiting in line for ages to get into these shops has me wondering - What is the main attraction??
I'm going to go to London next month and go to Monmouth Coffee and see how they do it... A trip to the states may be out of the question until next year :)
Also anyone in the US, how is the Tru-Bru stand working out??

The Monmouth way is I guess unique, which is what made them what they are today. In many ways it kind of reminds me of some of the ways coffee is done, fresh, in asia. I guess the key for Monmouth is every cup made, is fresh- not through a animo, Bunn, Fetco or Bravilor type filter system. This is probably thr main reason they have such a cult following I would say.

Well the potential volume discount is only part of the equation but in fact that aspect of the "theory" is indeed unproven in my experience. Offering choice is certainly a competitive advantage in mature markets like San Francisco, Portland, and Sea…

Depending on the roaster I can unequivocally say Hell Yes. Especially in this economy. He asked, I crunched the numbers. It hurts the bottom line and my own struggle to keep my doors open but I just gave a struggling wholesale cafe customer a tempor…

Well I have been using a 2 group Nuova Simonelli Aurelia auto daily for about 4 months and it is the bomb for me. A new one is out of that price range, but I have seen nice used ones priced OK. I'm sure there are lots of good commercial machines out…

How about a "Loyal to The Bean" card with your logo on the front and the roasters you feature on the back?
