Barre, VT

Since our founding in 1998, 802 Coffee by Capitol Grounds Cafe has been dedicated to bringing excellent coffee to the community. When Bob first opened the small cafe on State Street in Montpelier, roasting his own coffee, his mission was simple. At the time specialty coffee was mostly the purview of larger cities, and we sought to fill the gap.

Over the years, as more and more people have realized how good excellent coffee really is, we've taken a measured approach to expanding our offerings. With a focus on lower-yield green coffee lots and a commitment to small batch roasting, we've grown into a consistent and trusted source of specialty coffee in a market full of flash-in-the-pan upstarts and volume obsessed giants. 

We have taken the time to build relationships at every level of the supply chain, from the farmers on the ground, the mills where the coffee is dried, to the importers bringing it stateside. We know our coffee is in good hands. 

In January of 2020, Julia Watson, Bob's daughter took on the role as owner of 802 Coffee and Capitol Grounds Cafe. She and the team at 802 Coffee are still dedicated to bringing you the very best coffee from around the world.

Every time we bring a new coffee into our roastery, Julia, Spencer, our head roaster, and Tonya, our certified Q-Arabica Grader complete a rigorous cupping process. We sample dozens of coffees from each region, deliberately choosing options that not only represent that region's expected flavor profiles, but that also bring something fresh and new. In this way we strive for each of our single origins to be exactly what you want while still surprising you.
