Anchorhead Coffee is a specialty coffee roaster based in Seattle, Washington, operating cafés in Downtown Seattle, Capitol Hill, and Pike Place Market, all open seven days a week. The roaster emphasizes small-batch production, roasting each order fresh and hand-packing it before shipment. Anchorhead offers whole bean coffees for direct purchase, including its flagship espresso blend—a combination of 70% natural Ethiopia Guji and 30% washed Brazil—as well as single-origin offerings such as an anaerobic natural Ethiopia Hambela from West Guji, produced by smallholder farmers in partnership with Tracon Coffee. The company provides subscription options, bulk pricing tiers, and a Roaster's Choice Box for early access to new releases. Anchorhead also offers wholesale services and a merchandise line. The brand positions itself around accessibility and freshness, promising next-business-day shipping and describing its mail-order channel as "the next best thing to visiting us in-person."
