Our Story
Great Coffee.
Hand Roasted. For Everyone.
Award-winning speciality coffee roasters from Hornchurch, London. Ethically sourced, small-batch roasted, and delivered in plastic-free packaging.

Our Founder
A Pilot's Search for the Perfect Cup
This is Joe, founder of Altitude Coffee London. As well as being a coffee fanatic, his other passion is aviation. During his career as a commercial pilot, Joe sought out the finest coffee in every destination he visited.
He created Altitude Coffee London with one simple wish — for everyone to experience the best coffee at home. That's what we do: find exceptional coffees, expertly roast them in small batches, and deliver directly to you.
What Makes Us Different
We're a small team with uncompromising standards. Every decision we make comes back to the same thing — delivering you outstanding coffee.
Award Winning
Six-time Great Taste Award winners, recognised by the Guild of Fine Food for outstanding coffee across four consecutive years.
Ethically Sourced
Our producers are paid over twice the Fair Trade price. We work with Mercanta, specialists in speciality coffee sourcing for over 25 years.
Plastic-Free
Our bags are made from plant starch and are fully compostable — including the zip lock and air valve. We're one of very few roasters to have made this commitment.
Letterbox Delivery
Coffee is shipped via Royal Mail 24 for next-day delivery. Our 250g bags are designed to fit through your letterbox. No missed parcels.
Ethical Sourcing
From Farm to Your Cup
Our goal is to provide you with the finest, ethically sourced coffee. Our sourcing partners Mercanta have been at the pinnacle of speciality coffee for over 25 years.
We work together to find the best tasting coffees, grown by dedicated and passionate producers who are paid fairly for their exceptional work.
Direct RelationshipsWe source the finest specialty-grade, organic coffees from across the globe, working directly with farmers to ensure quality and fair compensation at every stage.


Conscious Impact
Coffee That Gives Back
We strive to be as environmentally sensitive as possible. Our coffee waste is given to a local organic farmer where it's composted and used as fertiliser for organic fruit and vegetables.
We've made the conscious decision to avoid plastic packaging entirely. Every element of our coffee bags — the bag itself, the zip lock, and the air valve — is made from plant starch and is fully compostable.
Freshness Guaranteed
Like any food, coffee deteriorates over time. Every bag of coffee you buy from us carries a "roasted on" date — the mark of quality coffee. Meticulous attention to detail ensures each bean reaches its full flavour potential.
Recognised for Excellence
