Eclectic Coffee Roasters Ltd

you're on the edge of leadgate, out past consett where prospect business park sits in that particular way industrial units do in county durham, quietly useful. eclectic roasts on-site, which matters more than it sounds: what ends up in your cup started as green beans somewhere in this building rather than arriving pre-roasted from a warehouse three counties over. that kind of short chain tends to show. the location isn't glamorous, but specialty roasters rarely need to be, and the ones serious about the sourcing and roasting side of things often end up exactly here, in a north wing unit where the work actually happens. if you're heading out from durham city, give yourself the extra twenty minutes on the a691. the roastery itself is the reason to make the trip.
