Our story
A love letter to specialty coffee.
Coffee & Bagels started as a single espresso machine, a small dream, and a stubborn belief that Nairobi deserved somewhere calm to enjoy a beautifully brewed cup. Today, we roast, we bake, we chat about beans — and we welcome every kind of coffee curious into our home.
What we care about
Little things, done properly.
- Passionately sourced beans — direct trade wherever possible, roasted for who they are.
- Six brewing methods — V60, Chemex, French Press, Cold Brew, Siphon, Aeropress.
- Handcrafted bagels — boiled then baked in-house every single morning.
- Sustainable packaging — compostable or reusable, always.
- Coffee education — ask us anything. We love talking about it.
- A comfortable atmosphere — quiet corners, group tables, outdoor seats and reliable Wi-Fi.
- Fresh ingredients — sourced daily from local suppliers.
