Atomic Coffee Roasters

Atomic was born in 1996 when two brothers, both professional cyclists at the time, set out to answer the question "how hard can it really be to run a cafe?". The first Atomic Cafe opened on Cabot Street in Beverly later that year. That simple question has to lead us down a flowy single-track we've been riding for over two decades now. In the early 2000's we began roasting coffee to create a point of difference for ourselves. We roasted on a Diedrich IR7 in our original Cabot Street cafe to raise awareness for what we were trying to accomplish-- sourcing, roasting, and serving great coffee.

We've come a long way since those early days roasting on an  IR-7 in the front of the cafe. There are now two generations of brothers involved in the business. We've grown our team, our offerings, and our educational resources for the network of small businesses throughout New England that proudly serve Atomic. A lot has inevitably changed over the years, but one thing that hasn't is our passion for coffee, and elevating coffee experiences.

Our Mission

At Atomic, our mission is to spread positive energy. For over two decades, our family has used coffee as a catalyst for inspiring community, relationships, and adventures. We dedicate ourselves to the quality of our work and elevating coffee experiences.

Our Coffee

Our coffee is always specialty grade, as well as ethically and carefully sourced. We pay a premium to ensure the livelihood of coffee farmers and the quality of the green beans we purchase. We offer a range of roast profiles on our lineup of blends to provide our customers with consistent and reliably delicious coffees. Meanwhile, our single-origin coffees rotate seasonally for ultimate freshness, and we roast these to showcase the best flavor notes inherent in the bean.

All of our coffee is roasted to order, and packaged by hand at our roastery in Salem, MA.
