Why You Should Drink Your Coffee at Your Local Cafe

While it’s great to enjoy a good cup of coffee in the comfort of your own home, there are multiple good reasons why you should drink coffee in your local cafe more often.

From being able to try all kinds of classic coffees at a moments notice, to being able to take some relaxation time for yourself, it’s almost always worth spending more time in your local cafe each week to reap the benefits.



Below we’re going to take a look at some of the reasons why you should drink your coffee at your local cafe more often.

Sample a Large Variety of Coffees


By far, one of the best parts of being in a good cafe is that you have such a wide variety of coffees to try. With time, you’re sure to find the perfect coffee to suit your tastes, almost everyone finds a favourite sooner or later.

It’s also good to have all the extras available to you too, like cookies, cakes and muffins!

Take Time for Yourself

Your couple of visits to your local cafe per week can be your time alone to relax and reflect, far away from the stresses of day-to-day life. Many people begin to see their cafe as their safe haven of relaxation where they can sit down, have a brew and take a break.

Find a cafe that offers both a great selection of coffees and a calm atmosphere and you’ll be a regular guest in no time.

Meet Like-Minded Individuals


Your time in a cafe certainly doesn’t have to be solitary if you don’t want it to be, having a cup of coffee in a lively cafe can be great way to meet new people. Many come to their local cafe to indulge in their love of coffee and to meet new people, so you’re more than likely to find someone with similar goals and interests.

If things go well, you just might make a coffee-buddy for life!

Finish Off That Book

Busy people leading busy lives often end up starting things and not finishing them due to the sometimes high demands of daily life. A good example of this is people who begin a book and never quite find the time to finish it.

Your time spent in your local cafe can be spent progressing through the book you’ve been meaning to read. Just order yourself a coffee, get comfortable, and lose yourself in the story.

Catch Up With Friends & Family


Another fantastic way many people spend their time in their local cafe is by using that time to catch up with loved ones. It’s great to invite someone you care about to spend some quality time together over a delicious coffee or two.

If you can’t always get someone to accompany you to a cafe, you could always take your laptop or phone and use that time to chat with someone. Most cafes are very technology-friendly and will be happy to offer you free internet access via wi-fi so you can do as you like.

Spend More Time in Your Local Cafe

Above are some great reasons to spend more time in your local cafe, however there’s plenty more ways you could spend your time while enjoying a quality coffee. Make some time for yourself every week and indulge in a brew, it just might end up becoming your favourite time of the week.

Good Cup Coffee Company hopes you enjoy your time (and your coffees!) at your favourite local cafe.

Why You Should Choose a Well-Established Coffee Supplier

Choosing a professional and well-established coffee supplier is a very important decision when it comes to finding coffee for your cafe, restaurant, or workplace. By choosing a coffee supplier you can trust, you’ll get a reliable service, delicious coffee beans, and value for money with every order.




Below we’re going to take a look at what makes a well-established coffee supplier.

Efficient & Reliable Service

No one wants to buy important supplies from a second-rate and unreliable supplier. Your supplies need to arrive when you need them, and they need to be exactly what you ordered, this is especially true of establishments that sell coffee as their main product, like cafes.

Always choose a coffee supplier that is known for its great customer service, as well as those who have a real passion for what they do.

Highest Quality Coffee Beans

The products themselves need to be of the highest quality to be worth ordering, that’s why well-established coffee suppliers only offer coffee beans and accessories of the finest quality you can buy in the UK.

Suppliers who sell lower-quality coffee also often don’t offer ethical fair trade coffee supplies which means there’s no option for people who want to make sure coffee bean farmers get a fair deal. We urge you to only buy from known coffee suppliers who offer the highest quality coffee with the hard-working coffee farmers in mind.

Value for Money Coffee

It’s not just the amazing quality of the coffee that matters, it’s also about getting a really good deal.

Well-established coffee suppliers will be able to offer their clients the best prices on the market so your establishment can provide coffee to customers at a fair price. You’re paying for quality when it comes to coffee supplies, but that certainly doesn’t mean it has to break the bank.

Fast & Cheap Delivery

Delivery is very important if you’re ordering from a coffee supplier as your supplies absolutely need to arrive on time in top-condition. A good coffee supplier will also often offer free delivery to loyal clients who order over a certain amount of supplies, so watch out for some great deals on their websites!

Get your first-class coffee supplies delivered to you in perfect condition in a matter of days, order from a well-known and professional coffee supplier who has your needs in mind.

What Is Coffee Roasting?

According to the British Coffee Association, we drink over 55 million cups of coffee every day in the UK.

With this amount of coffee powering the nation, how exactly does coffee get from the plant or tree to you cup?



Coffee is grown, the harvested, dried, roasted then packed. So here’s the roasting process, which gives each individual coffee its particular flavour and aroma!

1. Coffee beans are roasted at a temperature of around 550 degrees Fahrenheit, usually on a heated conveyor which prevents the beans from burning

2. This heat causes oil in the beans to seep to the surface, which causes the bean to cook or roast. This process is called pyrolysis.

3. Once roasted, the beans are then cooled naturally or using water.

4. They should be vacuum packed immediately to preserve freshness.

The World’s Most Ethical Coffee

At Good Cup coffee, we only sell the very finest coffee, whether it’s for your coffee shop, hotel, work place or for your enjoyment at home.

We pride ourselves on being responsible and ethical coffee suppliers, so you can be sure that every bean comes from a sustainable and ‘better than fair trade’ source. In fact, we’re Rainforest Alliance Certified so you know that from plantation to cup, you’re getting the highest quality from the most ethical coffee company in the world.
