Stedman Corners Coffee Roasters

cold brew is a good place to start here, but honestly so is whatever they're pulling as a single-origin pour-over on any given week. stedman corners coffee roasters sits on west fairmount avenue in lakewood, ny, a quieter stretch that doesn't get the foot traffic of bigger new york cities but has its own rhythm, and this roaster fits that rhythm without trying to override it. what you're getting here is roasted-in-house coffee from a shop that takes the sourcing end of things seriously, not just the brewing. the regulars are consistent and clearly loyal, which tends to happen when a place doesn't cut corners on the basics. if you're passing through the chautauqua county area, west fairmount avenue in the late morning is the window to catch it at its best.
