Courtyard Coffee Roasters

the filter coffee here is worth slowing down for, which isn't something you hear often enough about roasters that also pull espresso. courtyard coffee roasters sits on high street in eccleshall, a quiet market town a few miles outside stafford itself, and that setting suits the pace of what they do. roasting on-site means the gap between roast and cup is shorter than most places you'll find in the midlands. if you're driving through st21, this is the kind of stop that changes the rest of your afternoon. the espresso-based drinks carry that freshness too, a cleaner finish than you get from beans that have been sitting in a warehouse for six weeks. come for the filter, stay for whatever single origin they're featuring that week.
