Fantastic coffee beans. They extract like no other. Very good
Best beans in the city. Awesome group of guys working here. Makes buying coffee beans feel personal

Specialty coffee requires special care.
Visited a friend in San Francisco and for three days he raved about Graffeo Coffee Roasters. We finally got the chance to visit and it exceeded his description. It is a quintessential American founding story - over 90 years in business, family owned and operated, now in the care of life along customers who want to protect what makes Graffeo special. And it’s special. They have a unique way of roasting coffee that prevents scorched beans and results in the smoothest sip you’ll have. An altogether impressive operation, and a must visit if you’re in the Bay Area.
Great flavor
ordered 1 bag two weeks ago. I've yet to receive it. Amazon ruined expected shipping time I get that, but two weeks? the juice better be worth the squeeze cause I'm beyond irritated thus far.
GET YOUR COFFEE HERE!!! 5 star customer service, reliable, delicious, aesthetic, and best-in-class offerings. We ordered these as client gifts and WOW did our office smell amazing, and lots of very happy clients!!!!
We bought a half pound of Graffeo’s dark roast on Columbus St. in San Francisco recently as our standing order of French Roast from another company is tasting more and more bitter. Using our Chemex, we just made the most delicious cups of coffee we’ve had in ages! Thanks Graffeo.
Purchased Half and Half whole bean and truly disappointed… As someone who has traveled to many countries that supposedly produce high quality and highly rated coffee, I humbly believe that after 15 + years, I know coffee..
Do not understand the hype for the what is being offered to coffee drinkers.
The taste and aroma is very mediocre, not superior to the offerings one finds in the neighborhood supermarket !! It baffles me how the reviews go on and on praising everything about the coffee.. Reviewers mention mass produced coffee as a comparison and then write how ‘over the moon’ they are in drinking their Graffeo !!
Not one review ever mentions that the writer ever purchased or drank coffee purchased from countries- specifically regions like Blue Mountains of Jamaica or 100% Kona or from Vietnam or from other countries.. I wonder if reviews posted for Graffeo are not AI generated or just unsophisticated consumers !!
This is real coffee, just coffee how it was before and how it should be. Customer service is fantastic and again -- this coffee is very good coffee. Strongly recommend to order their beans or ground coffee as well.

I am a coffee snob, OK? I heat up my coffee mug before I pour coffee into it. I toss coffee out if it’s too weak or has a questionable aftertaste. And I do NOT put anything in my coffee except whole milk or cream. You see what I mean?
I’ve basically painted an unflattering—but honest—picture of myself as a coffee drinker. But here’s the thing: I only drink two or three cups a day, and I want every one of them—especially the first—to be damned right.
That’s where Graffeo Coffee Roasting Company comes in.
Graffeo roasts their beans just right, and they’ve been doing it since 1935. In a world where coffee trends change every month, Graffeo remains proudly old-school: small-batch, no gimmicks, no Instagram drink specials—just consistently excellent coffee. I love their Dark Roast, which works beautifully for both drip and espresso. They roast their beans right on site, and when you walk in, the heavenly smell of fresh coffee hits you like an angel’s wing. It’s worth stopping by just for that moment alone.
Buy a half-pound of whole beans, take them home, grind only what you need for a single serving*, make your coffee right away, and savor the taste. You’ll understand why this little roastery has survived nearly a century while others have come and gone.
And for the love of good coffee, never grind your beans days in advance. Ground coffee absorbs smells like a sponge. You do NOT want your morning cup tasting like the salmon you cooked last night, do you?
Also worth noting: Graffeo keeps things simple—no café seating, no complicated menu, and yes, still cash or check only at their original North Beach shop. But honestly, it fits their vibe perfectly. They focus on what they do best: roasting outstanding coffee.
Amazingly good coffee, the best I've ever had, and the customer care and support I received for an issue with an online order was light years beyond anything I've ever experienced!

Excellent dark roast decaf. Love it.
First time trying Graffeo Coffee Roasting. I decided to purchase the dark roast beans. I am so happy with this coffee. I usually use cream in my coffee. One day I ran out of cream, so I decided to try it black. I thought the coffee was smooth and robust and great to the last drop. I think a coffee should taste the same from the first to the last sip without changing. This coffee past this test with 5 star quality. I highly recommend that you visit or even order online this epic coffee.
