Spyhouse Coffee

Spyhouse Coffee is a Twin Cities-based roaster and multi-location retailer focused on farm-direct sourcing, thoughtful roasting, and community enrichment in Minneapolis and beyond.

Spyhouse Coffee is a roaster and retailer based in the Twin Cities area of Minnesota, operating multiple café locations across Minneapolis, St. Paul, and Rochester. The company emphasizes farm-direct sourcing, working closely with producers to explore different coffee varieties and processing techniques that shape each coffee's flavor profile. Their roasting philosophy centers on highlighting the work of skilled growers rather than imposing a singular house style, with an expressed commitment to humility, clarity, and respect for origin. Spyhouse integrates sustainability and social responsibility into its business decisions, including a Gender Equity Project that sources from women producers and pays a gender-equity premium above the standard quality-based price. The roaster also engages in community give-back initiatives and partnerships with local organizations. Wholesale and subscription services are available alongside retail offerings of coffee, drinkware, and apparel.
