Where it all began

The First Espresso Bar in St. Louis, MO

In 1995, Kevin left his engineering job to open the first espresso bar in St. Louis.

He and his wife Holly gave out free lattes and mochas on street corners, explained every order, and built Brevé Coffee—one conversation at a time.

One turned into seven

As word spread, one café became two… then seven.

Every shop was different, but each one was built the same way: with care, hustle, and a team that felt like family.

Back to the heart of it

Built to Last, Roasted to Share

After years of running cafés, we came back to where it all started—roasting by hand.

It let us scale with intention, serve people nationally, and spend more time with the people who matter most.

Same values. Bigger reach. A rhythm that feels like home.

How We Roast + Why it Matters

  • The Best Beans, Period

    We source only 100% Arabica beans—shade-grown, hand-picked, and hand-sorted. They’re screened for size, shape, and moisture so they roast evenly and taste smooth. It’s the kind of quality most brands don’t bother with. We always do.

  • Roasted by People, Not Machines

    Every batch is roasted in small batches, by hand. No computers. No automation. Just trained eyes, ears, and instincts honed over decades. We roast the way we were taught: with patience and precision.

  • Smooth, Balanced, Never Bitter

    Because the beans are consistent and the roast is even, the result is coffee that doesn’t need anything added. It’s clean. It’s flavorful. And it’s good enough to drink black—even if you usually don’t.
Taste the Difference

We’re proud of what we've built.

But what matters most is where this coffee goes next—into your mornings, your routines, your life. Whether you found us through a café, a friend, or just wanted something better, we’re glad you’re here. Welcome to Brevé.
