About us

We started early, and it stuck

At Dawn began with a drum roaster, a spreadsheet, and far too many mornings spent deciding whether a batch was actually good or whether we just wanted it to be.

How we buy

We buy green coffee a few bags at a time from Canadian importers, and we keep the list deliberately short for simplicity. One coffee going through at a time as we build our list of favourites. We would love to hear what you want to try next, or have again!

How we roast

Everything is roasted in small lots, a few days before it goes out. Nothing sits on a shelf. The goal is for you to look forward to that first cup after you wake up.

How we sell

Directly, and simply. Order through this site, or email us directly. We confirm every order within one business day. We deliver within Edmonton and the nearby area, or you can collect it from us. We accept cash or e-transfer.

At Dawn Coffee Co.

Local Edmonton coffee, roasted to order.

If you want to know more about a particular coffee — the farm, the process, what we thought of it on the table — ask. We like talking about it.
