About Us

The Original Donut Shop Coffee was born from a simple yet powerful idea: to bring the comforting taste of fresh, diner-style coffee into homes across America. Founded in 2003, our journey began when two coffee enthusiasts, Sarah Thompson and Michael Rodríguez, noticed a gap in the market for convenient, high-quality coffee that captured the essence of a classic American donut shop experience.

Sarah, a third-generation coffee roaster, and Michael, a former diner owner, combined their expertise and passion to create a brand that would revolutionize at-home coffee brewing. They spent countless hours perfecting their blend, drawing inspiration from the rich, full-bodied coffee that has been a staple in donut shops for decades.

At The Original Donut Shop Coffee, our mission is simple: to deliver an exceptional cup of coffee that turns every day into a treat. We believe that great coffee should be accessible to everyone, not just connoisseurs or those with fancy equipment. That’s why we’ve dedicated ourselves to creating coffee products that are both delicious and convenient, allowing you to enjoy cafe-quality coffee in the comfort of your own home.

We’re committed to:

1. Quality: Using only the finest, responsibly sourced beans to ensure a consistently great taste.
2. Convenience: Providing easy-to-use products that fit seamlessly into your daily routine.
3. Sustainability: Implementing eco-friendly practices in our sourcing and packaging.
