Assembly Coffee: Brixton’s Vanguard of Specialty and Sustainable Coffee

Nestled in Brixton, Assembly Coffee stands out as one of London’s most forward-thinking specialty coffee roasteries, renowned for innovation, uncompromising quality, and a culture built on collaboration. Founded by industry pioneers from Volcano Coffee Works, Assembly burst onto the scene as a headline sponsor of the inaugural Coffee Masters at the London Coffee Festival in 2015 and has since become a leader in sustainable excellence—earning both B Corp™ and CarbonNeutral® certifications. Their hands-on team, including head of quality and Q Grader Nick Mabey, roasts in a historic 19th-century fire station, equipped with a cutting-edge sensory lab and state-of-the-art Giesen and Loring roasting equipment. Assembly’s meticulous approach to sourcing and their dynamic feedback loop with wholesale partners ensure their coffees are always aligned to both the latest industry trends and the unique tastes of their community.

Assembly’s portfolio spans the globe, featuring collaborations with pioneering producers and an ever-evolving range of seasonal single origins and blends—each bag packaged in distinct, artful rice paper that visually interprets the coffee’s taste profile. Their award-winning coffees are showcased across London’s best independent cafes, fine dining spots, and bakeries like Layla, where the Assembly Blend pairs perfectly with handcrafted pastries and sourdough. House specialties, like expertly brewed flat whites, highlight their unwavering commitment to quality; their monthly public cuppings and development events keep Assembly at the cutting edge of the specialty scene. If you crave specialty coffee roasted with purpose, innovation, and a passion for community, Assembly Coffee is a must-visit destination in the heart of South London.
