Auckland's soulful specialty coffee hub since 2009. Eighthirty crafts exceptional blends, from classic to unique, with a commitment to quality and community.
Step into Eighthirty Coffee Roasters and you’ll feel the pulse of Auckland’s specialty coffee scene. Since 2009, this standout roastery—founded by Glenn Bell, a pioneer who brought his dream north from Wellington—has evolved from a modest K Road spot into a community hub known for its authentic spirit and commitment to quality. The space buzzes with creativity, powered by top-tier gear like the Loring S35 Kestrel roaster and Modbar pour-over system, overseen by Head of Coffee Jessica MacDonald, formerly of Square Mile, London. Here, Eighthirty crafts blends to suit every palate, from their classic dark chocolate-laced standard blend to a fragrant orange blossom and vanilla brew that has become a local favorite.
Eighthirty’s coffee portfolio is a journey: you’ll find rotating single origins sourced in partnership with producers like Colombia’s Cofinet, plus staple blends (Standard, Classic, Organic) perfect for espresso, pour-over, or V60. The café culture extends beyond exceptional brews—expect vibrant, wholesome food options, from fresh salads and artisan sandwiches to muesli and irresistible slices of The Caker’s cake. Sustainability is central to their story, seen in their ethical sourcing and eco-friendly packaging. Whether you’re a seasoned aficionado or a casual sipper, Eighthirty’s warm, knowledgeable staff and ever-evolving coffee selection guarantee a rich experience every visit.
