Contrary to another poster on here, I find David and Ruth (both fine coffee connoisseurs) to be as friendly as you are. Minstrels, they are not. Friendly, chatty but respectful would be closer to the mark. Their primary business is roasting and supplying industry, so having a shop where you can pop in to drink or buy at retail provides great insight into this world.
But the coffee! I've spent several years working in fine dining in London and I can tell you that their Kenyan Single Estate is as delicious as any I've had in the land - maybe more so. It's outrageously good, like most of their coffees, and they know it. David is very attentive, and keen to match your taste to their varying offerings.

(Oh, and as an aside to the bloke punter who had his hooves up on the table, if you are reading this, hooves are for the floor, not for on tables that other folk have to eat...
Read moreWe discovered Roost Coffee several years ago and have been delighted with the quality, flavour and consistency ever since. We always visit when in Malton and the taste of their freshly prepared coffee never disappoints. Since then we’ve regularly purchased their freshly roasted coffee beans on line via their web site so we can enjoy Roost coffee all year round. The overall service via the on line ordering system along with the quality and freshness of the beans is first class. We placed an order one day and the delivery arrived by lunchtime the next day - what a fantastic service and well done Roost. Very happy to recommend this company and...
