Old Spike Roastery

At Old Spike, we're committed to ensuring everyone who comes through our doors leaves with a better story than the one they came in with. Whether that's by offering those affected by homelessness tangible ways to gain new skills and a job, or by serving a customer a delicious, socially conscious cup of coffee, we want to create meaningful social and environmental impact. We began our journey in 2014 when we launched our café and roastery space at our very fist site on Peckham Rye. We were the first speciality coffee roastery operating as a social enterprise and have since been at the forefront of using coffee as a vehicle for social change. This model has served us well and we have since grown the business and now reside just round the corner at our state-of-the-art SCA Campus - still in Peckham! At Old Spike we have also made a commitment to plant a tree for every bag of coffee that we sell through our partnership with the Eden Reforestation Project. Whether you are a wholesale customer or simply buying a bag online or in-store, you can now enjoy your coffee knowing not only is it responsibly sourced, it is also helping the plan (with over 40,000 trees planted in the last 12 months). You can enjoy Old Spike coffee at our cafés located on Peckham Rye and at Peckham Levels but keep an eye out for our new Cafés opening in central London. We also supply our coffee to a number of different types of businesses in the UK. Whether you are a café, restaurant or larger corporation, we can provide a custom coffee solution that suits your needs.
