Shopping for coffee beans? Stop by metro Detroit roasters like New Order Coffee Roasters, Anthology, and Germack Coffee Roasting Co. to support area businesses and pick up fresh coffee beans.
Anthology
Pick your preference at Anthology. Stop into the airy Eastern Market roastery to select one of five whole bean varieties originating from Brazil, Colombia, Ethiopia, and Honduras, or order online. A monthly subscription service also ensures you’ll never run out of your Anthology fix. Just sign up, select your preferred grind, and wait for a friendly staffer to deliver the goods.

Drifter Coffee
Founded and operated by an all-female team, Drifter Coffee has a Divine Goddess Blend that embodies the overall feminist ethos of the café. The shop’s former creative director and manager, Amelia Eramya, sketched a whimsical illustration of a tree personified as a voluptuous female figure for the bag, and the beans inside are sourced through Women Coffee Producers, a resource to help coffee importers source their beans from female coffee farmers across the globe.
