Our Story

Our Story.

There is a story behind every cup of coffee, and Lincoln Coffee House & Roasters is part of the bean’s journey, roasting your coffee beans with years of experience within the coffee industry. Having first opened a café and then opening our very own roastery, Lincoln Coffee House & Roasters has come a long way since it opened in 2013.

The Story Behind Lincoln Coffee House & Roasters.

Lincoln Coffee is a family run business founded by Jas and Simmi. Having thought that Reading lacked the speciality coffee experience, the couple decided to open their first coffee house back in 2013. The exceptional coffee and delicious food served in the café quickly made Lincoln Coffee Reading’s favourite speciality coffee and bagel shop, and Lincoln Coffee became a well-known destination for coffee drinkers and foodies.

Jas & Simmi decided to enhance their customers coffee experience and expand their business by opening their very own coffee roastery. In 2018, they purchased a coffee roaster and began roasting their very first batch of coffee beans. After a lot of trial and error and hitting some learning curbs, Lincoln Coffee House & Roasters eventually perfected roasting coffee, and has established an excellent reputation for speciality roasts. The business started to expand even further, and Lincoln Coffee House & Roasters now roasts a wide selection of filtered and espresso coffee while maintaining a focus on ethical sourcing.

Our Key Focus.

While Lincoln Coffee House & Roasters has continued to produce exceptional coffee and expand significantly since opening the roastery, we still continue to focus on ethically sourcing our coffee beans. As a coffee roasting business, we promise to remain focused on the following:

Sourcing Ethical Coffee

Paying Higher Than Fairtrade

High-Quality Speciality Coffee

Best Coffee, Bagels, and Service in Reading

"I don’t usually write reviews, but have bothered to do so because it’s rare you grab coffee and lunch on the go and leave feeling so impressed.

Coffee is the best coffee I’ve had. They do amazing toasted bagels with a variety of fillings. The service was great, particularly the Manager (I think he was), who could not be more accommodating and polite..

A must go to place!"

Best Coffee House in Reading

"This coffee House is the best in Reading. The choice is fantastic and they even roast their own beans. I always have hot chocolate and even with this you can choose white, milk or plain. They are very knowledgeable about their product and provide a very friendly personalised service. Everything is prepared with real care. They also have a fantastic choice of bagels, cakes and pastries. You can eat in or out and whilst it is located slightly out of the town opposite Reading Library it is well worth the 2 min walk."

Best Coffee I Have Had in The UK

"I am originally from Seattle and am somewhat of a coffee snob. I was largely disappointed by the quality I was finding in the UK until I found Lincoln Coffee House. The first thing that you see when you walk into the store is their beautiful Lamborghini yellow La Marzocca machine, it is probably one of the most beautiful models I have ever seen. The staff here is extremely knowledgeable and know how to make a perfect macchiato. Mario has been great ever since my first time. The ownership clearly is very up to date and makes sure that their equipment is the best in the world. I have always been extremely impressed by this place, from coffee to service to food. This is a must-stop for coffee lovers in Reading."
