Hampton Roast Coffee

Hampton Roast Coffee is a small batch specialty roaster based at 19 Hampton Close, Larne, in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. Founder Rhyan McCoy began experimenting with home roasting in 2017 using popcorn makers alongside his friend Nathan, bought a proper roaster in 2019, and formally launched the business in January 2021 after building a customer base during the pandemic.

The roastery focuses on single origin coffees, with current offerings including beans from Mexico and Guatemala, and runs a subscription service alongside one-off retail. Decaf is offered via the Mountain Water Process, sourced from Mexico.

Customers are welcomed to the roastery for refills, and the business has picked up the Innovation and Excellence Award in April 2023 and a Local Sustainable Business Award in November 2023. Hampton Roast remains one of a small number of dedicated specialty roasters operating in Northern Ireland.
