Specialty roastery + tasting room · East Hastings, Vancouver
Small batch.
A roastery and tasting room where the coffee is small, the care is big, and someone will happily talk you through every cup.
Unsolicited concept by X9 AI — not affiliated with Prototype Coffee. Imagery is illustrative stock for the owner to swap; 4.7★ is the shop's own Google rating, not ours.
We don't think coffee should be rushed.
Beans are roasted in small batches, a few kilos at a time.
Every cup is weighed, timed, and tasted before it reaches you.
And there's always someone happy to tell you why.
/ the journey
From green to roasted.
Raw green beans go in; we chase the curve — drying, first crack, development — and pull them at the peak. Scroll to follow a bean down the line.
