About us

A café built bycoffee people.

We opened Overtime in 2019 with one drum roaster, a stubborn belief in single-origin espresso, and a corner shop with good light. Seven years later the roaster still runs on Wednesdays.

  • SMALL BATCH

    Eleven kilos at a time on a 1958 drum, cupped the same day.

  • EXPERTLY CRAFTED

    Every espresso dialled in at six, re-set through the day.

  • DIRECT TRADE

    Growers we can name, paid above Fair Trade, every lot.

WHAT THE REGULARS SAY

“I came in for a flat white and finished a whole chapter. Nobody hovered, nobody cleared my cup. It's the only place I bring people I actually want to talk to.”
