Patio Coffee Roasters

Patio runs less like a roastery shopfront and more like a coffee cellar door: a Richmond room where you can taste the beans, look over espresso machines and brewing kit, and sit down with a cup. Founding director Basil Papas brought two decades in specialty coffee to it, and the operation pairs small-batch roasting with a training academy that runs everything from first barista basics to home roasting and latte art. Beans span house blends, rotating single-origin microlots, and pods, alongside wholesale and subscriptions.
