Hello and welcome to the official blog for Workbench Coffee! We're Blake and Austin, the founders, and we're incredibly excited to share our passion project with you. More than just another coffee company, Workbench Coffee is a celebration of hard work, craftsmanship, and the essential role a truly great cup of coffee plays in a productive day.
Inspired by the Trades
The concept for Workbench Coffee was brewed from a lifetime of exposure to the trades and a deep appreciation for those who work with their hands. For us, the tradesman or tradesperson isn't just a job title—it's a mindset of quality, precision, and dedication.
For Blake, this mindset was forged in his father's workshop. His dad is a highly skilled craftsman, specializing in custom woodwork and cabinetry. Growing up, Blake saw firsthand the dedication it took to earn a reputation for high-quality work. It taught him the value of meticulous detail, a lesson we now apply to sourcing and roasting every single bean of our coffee.
Austin's inspiration came from a different kind of craftsman—the ultimate DIY'er. His father was always involved in a new project around the house, constantly building, fixing, and inventing. He had a natural ability to figure things out, teaching Austin the importance of resourcefulness and persistent problem-solving. This hands-on, can-do spirit is the foundation of the Workbench Coffee brand.
The Value of a Good Cup
Whether you're a seasoned tradesman finishing a critical build, a craftsman perfecting a piece of furniture, or just someone tackling a big project at home, we know the moment you need that perfect boost. We believe a high-quality, perfectly roasted coffee isn't a luxury—it's a vital tool.
Workbench Coffee exists to provide the fuel for your passion. It's the rich, invigorating start to a long day on the job site and the satisfying, smooth moment of respite during a challenging task. We take as much pride in our coffee as you take in your work.
