Our Coffee Journey

From the heart of downtown Denver to coffee farms around the world, discover the story behind every cup at Summit Coffee Roasters.

Founded on Passion

Summit Coffee Roasters was born in 2018 from a simple belief: exceptional coffee should be accessible to everyone. Founded by Maria and James Rodriguez in the heart of downtown Denver, our roastery began as a small operation in a converted warehouse, driven by a passion for quality and community.

What started as weekend farmers market visits has grown into a beloved local institution, but our core values remain unchanged. We still hand-select every bean, roast in small batches, and treat every customer like family.

Today, we're proud to serve our community with the same dedication to quality that started it all, while supporting coffee farmers and sustainable practices around the globe.
