Here you can find a list of Hamburg’s coffee roasters’ shops where you can try out and equip yourself with endless varieties of freshly roasted beans.

Becking Kaffeemanufaktur (Bahrenfeld)
For almost 100 years, the artisan coffee roasters at Becking have been refining coffee beans in their warehouse.

Sample different roasts by taking part in one of the weekly coffee tasting seminars.
