Meet your Roaster
Poets & Prose Coffee Roasters - Discover Great Coffee, Right Here in Oakville
Freshly roasted specialty coffee. Hands-on brewing experiences. A community brought together by coffee.
Poets & Prose Coffee Roasters is a family-owned specialty coffee business based in Oakville, Ontario. Born from a love of coffee spanning over two decades and several continents, our mission is simple: to make exceptional coffee more accessible, approachable, and enjoyable.
We source carefully selected, traceable specialty coffees from around the world and roast them in small batches to bring out their unique flavours. From comforting chocolatey Brazilian coffees to vibrant, fruit-forward African and Central American varieties, there's something for every coffee lover.
Freshly Roasted Coffee for Home
Visit our Oakville store to explore our selection of single-origin coffees, espresso blends, and decaf options. Whether you prefer a classic dark roast or enjoy discovering exciting new flavours, we're happy to help you find your perfect coffee.
We also offer convenient coffee subscriptions, local delivery, and coffee gifts.
More Than Coffee - Discover Our Brew Lab
What makes Poets & Prose different is our Brew Lab: a welcoming space designed to make specialty coffee fun, interactive, and accessible.
Join us for guided coffee tastings, explore brewing methods such as pour-over, French press, AeroPress, and espresso, or learn how to make a better cup of coffee at home.
Our Brew Lab also hosts private group experiences, corporate team-building activities, and creative workshops that bring coffee together with art, pottery, writing, and more.
No prior coffee knowledge required - just come ready to explore, experiment, and enjoy!
Coffee with Purpose
We believe great coffee begins at the source. Transparency, ethical sourcing, fair compensation for producers, and sustainability guide our approach. We want every cup to celebrate the people, places, and craftsmanship behind it.
We're proud to be part of the Oakville community, supporting local initiatives and collaborating with fellow makers, artists, and small businesses.
