Kikwetu Coffee Company

In a dynamic and fast paced world, we are on a mission to enable, uncover and foster human connections. As a Kenya-Born, Chicago-Made coffee company, we are excited to add to the diverse tapestry that makes Chicago special by connecting you to the best that Kenya has to offer starting with an exceptional cup of coffee.
Apart from offering only the highest quality coffee, what also sets us apart is that we work directly with small-scale farmers in Kenya to source our coffee beans and roast in Chicago. These farmers are the cornerstones of their communities so we want to ensure that they get a fair price for what they do and that their communities’ benefit as a result. When you sip that cup of coffee you are not just supporting a small business in your local community, you are touching lives in your global community as well.
We offer freshly roasted beans, Loose leaf Tea and a fine selection of handcrafted Coffee and Tea beverages using local ingredients from our farmers markets. We also offer Mandazi, a traditional style beignet in different flavors, cardamom, Coconut or Ginger. This treat is a family recipe from our mother, Mama Lee.

Across Chicago, we also offer coffee catering services for meetings and events with a special splash of Kenyan Hospitality. Karibu! (welcome)
