JJ Bean Coffee Roasters: Where Vancouver's Coffee Legacy Thrives
Step inside JJ Bean Coffee Roasters and you immediately sense a blend of tradition and innovation—the vibrant pulse of Vancouver’s specialty coffee scene. Founded by fourth-generation coffee roaster John Neate Jr. in 1996, JJ Bean is built on nearly a century of coffee expertise, honoring the Neate family’s deep roots dating back to the 1920s. This independent, family-run chain has earned its stellar reputation through unwavering dedication to people, products, and place—garnering continuous recognition as one of Vancouver’s best coffee chains and earning founder Neate a place in the BC Restaurant Hall of Fame, Coffee category. With a distinct approach, JJ Bean sources the world’s finest specialty coffees, paying well above Fair Trade prices, and roasts in small batches daily to preserve peak flavor and complexity.
Expect a coffee portfolio that marries heritage with discovery: house blends like the signature “JJ,” plus rotating single-origin offerings such as Peru El Morito and Rwanda Ngoma, each expressing unique terroir. JJ Bean’s brewing method is meticulous, now blending before roast—a nod to their Italian merger with Torrefazione Coloiera. The cafés are celebrated for their design, welcoming “third place” vibe, and outstanding food menu, including fresh pastries crafted in-house. If you visit, don’t miss the Railtown blend or a seasonal single origin pour-over, and pair it with a signature pastry for a truly local specialty coffee experience.
