👍 CoffeePirates – established in 2012 – was the first organic certified 3rd wave coffee shop and speciality roastery in Vienna, the city in which the renowned European coffee tradition all began. Our goal is to source, roast and craft the finest coffees from outstanding coffee farms around the world.
Where there is coffee, there are people.
We travel to origin countries at least twice a year with the aim of creating transparency and traceability. There are people and stories behind every coffee we roast and serve you in a cup.
We see the work with coffee as a valuable handcraft. Every single step of the process is taken pretty seriously. We go beyond fairtrade by rewarding coffee farmers for their efforts in planting, harvesting and processing exceptional coffees. Therefore, with our focus on quality and sustainability, we pay up 3-5 times higher than the market or fairtrade prices. But CoffeePirates is more than a roastery and speciality coffeeshop.

Read moreCoffee Pirates is a very nice third wave coffee shop fairly close to the center of Vienna. Nice espresso, nice atmosphere, nice filter coffee, and not a lot to complain about!
The pastries/cakes also taste wonderful, especially when paired with a double shot of Costa Rican espresso ;).
Service is very good, and the staff is knowledgeable about coffee. They're more than willing to help you out in your decisions. You can also buy coffee/coffee beans that they roast themselves.
