Roasters in and near Lakewood
- Sweet Bloom Coffee Roasters, 1619 Reed Street. The roastery doubles as a cafe, open Monday to Saturday mornings. Sweet Bloom buys smaller, recently harvested lots and expects each to taste its best for about one to three months, so the menu turns with the world's harvests. Alongside the Hometown Blend and Uraga, most single origins are sold under the producer's name, from growers in Ethiopia, Colombia, Guatemala, Peru, Kenya, Mexico and Costa Rica (checked 2026-09-27).
- Garden Coffee Co. Roastery. John and Delmy Mattos started it in 2017.
- Village Roaster, listed in Lakewood on Roast Local. It dates to 1979.
- Middle State Coffee, on Santa Fe Drive in Denver, a short drive east. It looks for small lots from small farms and names most of its single origins for the grower or the washing station.
Golden's roasters and the rest of the west metro are on the Denver suburbs and foothills page.
Lakewood's coffee story
Sweet Bloom arrived with a competition record. Andy Sprenger started it in 2013. He holds two U.S. Brewers Cup titles and finished runner-up at the World Brewers Cup. Before coffee he worked on wetland conservation in Lebanon, then joined Ceremony Coffee in Maryland as a barista and worked up to roaster before moving back to Colorado.
In 2026 the Global Coffee Awards named Sweet Bloom the best roaster in the US and Canada.
Garden Coffee Co. is a family story. John and Delmy Mattos started it in 2017, and Delmy is a Honduran native.
The US Census Bureau counted 156,927 people in Lakewood in its July 2025 estimate. Sweet Bloom gives 1 percent of its sales to the communities where its team lives and works and where its coffee is grown. That giving, and the roasting jobs on Reed Street, depend on people nearby buying the coffee. We make the full case on why local roasters matter.

How we chose these roasters
Every roaster here roasts in Colorado and was operating when we read its own site, on the date its card shows (the list itself was last checked 2026-09-27). Facts come from each roaster's own pages, written in our words; we take nothing from reviews and show no ratings. No roaster pays to be listed, and a listing does not mean the roaster is part of the club. Run a roaster here and something is off? Email coffee@fourteenercoffeeclub.com and we correct or remove the page.
