A Surrey roastery built on proper coffee and one slightly impulsive coffee machine purchase
Copper Coffee Roasters is based at Bramley Hedge Farm in Cobham, Surrey. Founded by Simon, Matt and Ben, the business grew from a side project in a small London office into a working roastery and café built around a shared love of what they simply call “proper coffee”. Head barista Gi and the wider team help bring that atmosphere to life day to day, keeping things welcoming, relaxed and closely tied to the local community.
Their Coffee Range
Copper’s range balances approachable house blends with a rotating selection of single origins, giving plenty to explore without losing sight of everyday drinkability.
The blends are designed to be reliable and easy to live with. House Espresso is smooth and balanced with classic chocolate-led comfort, while Good Morning combines Colombian and Vietnamese coffees for a richer, fuller profile that works particularly well with milk. Winter Warmer leans deeper and more comforting, while The Clubhouse keeps things versatile and easy-going across different brew methods.
The single origins bring a bit more variety into the mix. Ethiopia Limu and Ethiopia Gotiti offer brighter, fruit-led cups with floral notes and gentle acidity, while Rwanda Horizon and Rwanda Karengera bring sweetness, structure and a cleaner citrus profile. Brazil Monteiro Lobato sits at the more familiar end of the spectrum, with softer chocolate and nut notes that make for an easy everyday brew.
Their Costa Rica decaf is roasted with the same care as the rest of the range, keeping sweetness and balance intact rather than treating decaf as an afterthought.
Nothing here feels chosen just to show off. The focus is on coffees that brew well, taste balanced and fit naturally into everyday routines.
More About Copper Coffee Roasters
Copper roasts from its café and roastery space at Bramley Hedge Farm, where customers can drink coffee a few metres from where it is roasted and packed. The business itself grew fairly organically too. When local visitors started appearing at the roastery asking for takeaway coffees during lockdown walks, the team responded in the only sensible way available at the time - by buying a coffee machine and opening a café alongside the roastery.
Roasting takes place on a 5kg Toper roaster, with small batches monitored carefully throughout the process. There is clearly plenty of technical knowledge behind the scenes, but the focus stays firmly on producing balanced, approachable coffees rather than turning coffee into something overly complicated.
That practical mindset runs through the wider business too. Alongside roasting, the team’s experience across coffee equipment, café service and day-to-day brewing helps shape a roastery that feels grounded and unpretentious, with as much emphasis on hospitality as there is on the coffee itself.
The café plays a big part in that atmosphere. It is the kind of place where people settle in over a brew, ask questions about the beans and often leave with a bag of coffee under their arm without particularly planning to.
