""There's not a ton of seating because the cafe space is not the main focus of what we do, but we do want a place for people to sit, chill, hang out, get a good coffee and see the full coffee experience," Autonomy Coffee Lab Co-Founder Jonathan Mitchell told Daily Coffee News."
""People get to come in while roasting is happening, while cuppings are happening, and get served.""
""There's belief that every roaster is kind of gatekeeping profiles and stuff. I just think we don't talk to each other because we're all stuck in our dungeons of roasting and don't get to actually hang out with each other," Mitchell said."
Autonomy Coffee Lab in Tampa features a public cafe within an 8,000-square-foot co-roasting facility. It houses three Diedrich roasters and a destoner, along with packaging tools. The cafe serves espresso and light bites, allowing customers to witness the roasting process. Co-Founder Jonathan Mitchell emphasizes the importance of community among roasters, aiming to break down barriers and encourage interaction. The space includes a soundproof studio for podcasting and video production, enhancing the overall coffee experience for both customers and professionals.
