Our Story

#55a is the house number in Germany where our founder, Ingo, grew up in Hamburg, Germany, during the 1950s. Ingo has a passion to share his love of the bold flavours of Europe, with you, in the form of a Kaffee shop.

Kaffee, the German word for Coffee, uses methods and ingredients which provide a stronger taste than typical North American style coffees. Our mission is to provide European flavour to our customers, with the finest ingredients and recipes from the soul of the European coffee regions of Germany, Italy, Austria and Switzerland. 

We source the majority of our ingredients directly from Europe, and we craft each cup by hand with traditional European methods, to offer you a truly unique and authentic coffee experience.

It is our pleasure to share with you the flavours of Europe, so stop in: we are certain you will enjoy what we have to offer!
