Bring the cafe home—here are 7 Birmingham coffee roasters to support now
If you’re always on the hunt for your next caffeine fix, Birmingham’s thriving coffee scene is perfect for you. Luckily, there are plenty of Birmingham coffee roasters who make it even easier to caffeinate your day, whether you’re purchasing by the bag or supporting their brick and mortars.
1. June Roasters
You can find June Roasters (formerly Epilogue Roasters) in your favorite coffee shops already like Punch Love Coffee and GENERAL. Soon, it’ll be even easier to support their minority-owned, small-batch coffee roasting company in their new brick and mortar opening in summer 2021.
“We source unique and approachable coffees from all over the globe with importers that are transparent about pricing and pay beyond the ‘fair trade’ prices. June Roasters, with its future cafe, hopes to be a community-minded and hospitality-driven brand.”

4. Daysol Coffee Lab
Daysol Coffee Lab is passionate about roasting fresh coffee, and now they’re opening up a roastery and tasting room in Old Town Helena in spring 2021. At their roastery, you’ll be able to sample black coffee, purchase homebrew equipment and learn more about home brewing through classes and monthly demonstrations.
“Daysol’s Roastery and Tasting Room in Old Town Helena will feature their beautiful San Franciscan Roaster as the centerpiece to a rustic lobby that likens more to a bourbon showroom than it does your typical coffee shop. In fact, they won’t even offer lattes or fancy coffee drinks, just simple pure and exceptional black coffee.”
