It all began in 2002 with the purchase of our Genesee Street location in a relatively economically depressed area of Utica. The potential in not only this location but this area was seen by our founder & president, Frank Elias. In 2005, a roaster was moved into this building with a goal to start sourcing and roasting the world's highest quality coffee. This was transformed over time into a busy and bustling cafe with the vision of partner, Heather Delia.
Today, Utica Coffee Roasting has become so much more than that initial Genesee Street location. With cafes in Utica & Clinton, our world-class roasting & education center on Hotel Street, and a production facility in a historical building in Utica; it has safe to say the Utica Coffee brand has grown to be a staple of our community. We stay true to our roots through hiring locally, partnering with local businesses, and providing retail space to a variety of locally sourced products. Utica Coffee products find their home here on our website & Amazon. We are also incredibly proud to have our coffee sold & served throughout Upstate New York.
