Fábrica Coffee Roasters
Fabrica pioneered Lisbon's third-wave coffee, roasting direct-trade beans on-site with a German Probat. From Nuremberg's inspiration, they introduced diverse brewing and a unique nautical vibe, transforming Portugal's coffee scene.
From Nuremberg to Lisbon: Fabrica's Third-Wave Coffee Revolution
Fabrica stands as a true pioneer, igniting Lisbon's specialty coffee scene in 2015 when third-wave concepts were largely unknown. Founder Stanislav Benderski, inspired by Nuremberg's vibrant coffee culture, brought a revolutionary vision to Portugal. With a unique personal touch, his parents, Russian emigrants, run a restaurant in Lisbon, adding to the brand's rich narrative.
Fabrica wasn't just a coffee shop; it was an educational journey, introducing locals to a new world of coffee quality and diverse brewing methods. At its heart, Fabrica roasts all its beans on-site using a German Probat roaster, ensuring precise control over their distinctive profiles and a commitment to direct trade partnerships.
Beyond traditional espresso, they championed methods like V60, Aeropress, and Kalita, broadening the local palate. Their cafes boast a unique nautical-themed ambiance, a subtle nod to Portugal's seafaring heritage, creating a distinctive vibe. From innovative offerings like bottled cascara soda to earning the "People's Choice Best Coffee Shop" award, Fabrica has transformed from a local "strange animal" into Portugal's premier craft coffee destination, with locations now spanning Lisbon and Porto.
