In the 2024 Roast Masters competition, Badeta was among the best eight roasters in the Netherlands, after finishing third in the first round at the Amsterdam Coffee Festival. That is the standard by which Tomas and Joost let their coffee speak for itself - not with big words, but with the end result in the cup.
Those two friends, both with broad backgrounds in the hospitality industry, started with a clear goal: to make specialty coffee accessible to everyone, purchased directly from the farmers themselves. No middlemen, just direct relationships with producers worldwide. That approach is called single-source, and that principle is in every bean Badeta roasts and in every cup they pour.
The operational heart of the company is The Roastery. This is where all the beans are roasted and fresh pastries are prepared daily that go to the coffee bars. It is not a showroom, but a working production center that monitors the quality of all locations. Anyone who orders the Steady Eddy - Original House Blend is drinking the result of what is put together here every day.

What sets Badeta apart is not just the quality of the beans, but the way the company is built: from its own roastery, with direct farmer relationships, a growing network of locations and an operation that extends beyond the average coffee shop.
