Moon Roast Coffee: Expanding Your Coffee Horizons
At Moon Roast, we're all about celebrating the vast world of coffee flavours and helping you discover new dimensions in every cup. As a specialty coffee roaster, our mission goes beyond just delivering exceptional coffee; we want to broaden minds and palates. Many coffee drinkers are used to a narrow spectrum of flavours, and we’re here to change that. With our carefully sourced, freshly roasted coffees, we're bringing exciting, unique tastes straight to your cup.
Our story
Let’s take you back to where it all began. Our founder, Francis Bradshaw, comes from a long family history in the tea and coffee trade. But his personal journey with roasting started just over a decade ago, in a small barn in his garden, with the village owl keeping him company under the moonlit sky—hence, Moon Roast.
Fast forward to today, and we’ve grown into a specialty coffee roastery based in rural Hampshire. Our team of nine passionate coffee experts hand-roast small batches every day, ensuring that each bag of beans arrives at your door fresh and full of flavour. From single origins to adventurous blends, we select only the finest coffees and roast them to perfection.
Our coffee
At Moon Roast, we’re always on the lookout for extraordinary coffees. Our quest for quality takes us across the globe, sourcing from well-established producers and more unexpected, hidden gems of the coffee world. Once we’ve secured the beans, our meticulous roasting process allows each coffee to reach its full potential, creating roast profiles that bring out the very best in every batch.
We’ve carefully curated two collections to help you explore our range:
-
CORE: Our beloved blends and single origins, perfect for daily enjoyment.
- EXPLORE: A deeper dive into unique, diverse taste profiles, perfect for those eager to try something new.
Wherever possible, we source directly from smallholder farmers around the world. This direct relationship means we can ensure that they receive a fair price for their coffee and that their farming methods remain sustainable.

Our Commitment to Ethics and Sustainability
At Moon Roast, we’re passionate about ensuring that the coffee we source not only tastes amazing but is also produced ethically and sustainably. The coffee industry has a long history of exploitation, and we’re committed to making sure the farmers we work with are treated fairly, paid a good price, and use environmentally friendly practices.
Our specialty-grade Arabica beans come from small farms in countries as diverse as Rwanda, Peru, and China. We strive to source directly from producers wherever possible, allowing us to build strong relationships with our farmers and ensure that their practices align with our values of fairness and environmental stewardship.
Our Packaging
Sustainability is at the heart of what we do, and we’re currently working on introducing environmentally friendly packaging that maintains the freshness of our coffee. We know it’s a challenge, but we’re close to rolling out a new solution—stay tuned on our Instagram (@moonroastcoffee) for updates!
For our local customers, we offer a recycling and refill programme. Bring your used bags back to us for recycling, or even better, refill them or bring your own containers when purchasing beans. It’s just one small way we’re working to reduce waste and promote sustainability. Additionally, all of our takeout cups, boxes, and tape are recyclable or compostable, and we donate coffee sacks, chaff, and used grounds to local gardeners and community projects.
