Living Curiously.
Living Curiously is what we do.
It’s everything that Wylie’s Coffee was born from.
We bring together inspiration from our travels and different cultures, the thrill of exploration and a momentary sense of escapism, all accompanied by the simple pleasure of a really great coffee.
We believe that to live curiously is to be open to finding something new. Grab your courage, feel passionate, question everything (even yourself), push yourself, push your boundaries, set new boundaries, learn something new and never settle.
Feel inspired. It all starts with wanting to know more.
Our Story.
Wylie's Coffee was launched in 2021 by Freddie & Stef - we’re independently owned, sustainably driven and curiously inspired. Our mission is simple; to encourage a moment of calm in your day where you can pause over a really great cup of coffee.
Our coffee journey started in Sydney where we were absorbed into a new coffee culture that was very different to the UK. We fell in love with how people approached their daily coffee - it wasn't just a 'quick grab & go before catching a train' but instead, they took the time to enjoy and appreciate the time and what it brought to their day, whether that was by themselves or shared with someone else.
When travelling Japan we found that this level of care and consideration was embedded in their culture. We spent 4 weeks discovering roasters and coffee shops up and down the country, learning as much as we could and fully buying into their respect and ritualistic approach to coffee. These manners are ones that have stayed with us and formed the foundations of our love for the drink.
Wylie’s Coffee is more than just your caffeine hit, we’re a moment in time, however you choose to spend it. It’s your me-time, your time with friends, your time to focus or maybe it’s simply just the appreciation of having the time.
Our Coffee.
It’s really important to us that the coffee we offer is both great tasting and ethically and sustainably sourced. To do this, we make sure that we only buy from a high welfare trader who has direct relationships with the wonderful farmers and producers. We look forward to visiting coffee farms and developing new longstanding trading relationships ourselves, in the future.
We take great pride in the hard work that goes into roasting our coffee to showcase its distinctive qualities. Roasting is the crucial part of the process to get a great cup of coffee and we ensure that each variety is treated individually to bring out the best qualities in the bean.
Why Wylie’s?
One of the first questions we get asked when people visit us is “Why Wylie’s?”
So, it’s not our surname but instead let us introduce to you Wylie Baths. An ocean rock pool just south of Bondi Beach with a real Mediterranean feel. When living in Sydney we’d spend weekends here, whiling away the days with good coffee and long swims, fully embracing the calming atmosphere. It’s these days that we wanted to bring back with us to the UK and ultimately bring a piece of it to you when you visit Wylie’s Coffee.
We’re super proud that what we have built in St Margaret’s is an extension of who we are, what we’ve done and where we’ve been; and we love that we can share it with you.
- Freddie & Stef
