about welwyn coffee lab

welwyn coffee lab roasts its own. that alone separates it from most of what you'll find on stonehills. plenty of cafes buy in beans from a supplier, serve them passably, and call it a day. this place owns the earlier part of that process, which means the coffee in your cup has a shorter, more deliberate chain behind it. welwyn garden city isn't a city that gets written up in specialty coffee guides much, so finding a working roastery at this postcode is a genuine surprise. come on a weekday morning if you can. the pace is slower, the staff less stretched, and the difference between a roaster pulling shots with their own product and someone just running a cafe is easier to feel. start with a filter.
