Our roastery
We roast it ourselves, here in Lisbon.
Since 2024 every bag starts in our own roastery in Lisbon. We source coffee from Brazil, Colombia, Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda and beyond through exporters and importers we work with season after season — and roast in small batches, every week.
01
Chosen lot by lot
Seasonal harvests and microlots, cupped and picked by us before they reach the roaster.
02
Roasted weekly
Small batches, profiled for filter, espresso or omni. Packed within three days of roasting.
03
Poured the same day
What we serve in the cafés is exactly what we sell in the bag. No second-tier blend.
Recognition

Good coffee. Got it too go. The inside of the place looked small didn't see any seating.
★★★★★
Amazing place and service! 👏 Went there for coffee and cake; super tasty and the wait staff were great! I wish the wait staff from The Folks could train the wait staff at other establishments in Lisbon! The Folks staff know what it means to work in the service industry - friendly, enthusiastic, fast and efficient!
★★★★★
This place was really great, the pistachio latte was not overly sweet and was creamy and delicious. The pavlova was light, I wish it had more fresh mango but it was lovely.
★★★★★
Had a really amazing meal!! Raspberry pancakes highly recommended!
Good English tea with nicely warm milk and sugar.
Coffee is truly brewed with passion! Top-notch service!
★★★★★
Stopped in for 2 coffees to go. Best pistachio latte I’ve ever had
★★★★★
food was delicious! gluten free well catered for, the poached eggs were slightly colder than expected (which was weird), but the coffee and ambience made up for it :)

We roast it ourselves: inside the roastery
A roast walked through from green to drop, and why a locked profile matters more to us than a clever one.
