Who is Barbarossa?
Barbarossa Coffee is literally a specialty coffee shop where you can taste 20 different types of single origin coffee brewed by 6 different methods
(Chemex, Syphon, Aeropres, V60, Turkish and of course Espresso). This is no different than a wine tasting facility in Toscana, Italy; because each coffee
bean has its own taste characteristics stemming from the geographical properties of where it was grown. While you may get an intense chocolate aroma from one type of
coffee bean, you may taste an intense floral notes from another. You can only experience the difference by tasting several different coffee beans
in a short time. We at Barbarossa Coffee offer this experience to our customers. Barbarossa Coffee not only serves its customers great tasting coffee,
but also gives them the opportunity to find their own favorite tastes and to get to know about what type of coffee beans they enjoy having.

Coffee comes to our tables after going along a certain value chain from the harvest to consumption. Parties that play a role in this value chain are the farmers, green coffee buyers,
roasters, baristas and of course the consumers. Within this value chain, Barbarossa Coffee positions itself as green coffee buyer, roaster and barista.

Each type of coffee bean has a cupping note and Barbarossa Coffee always serves to its customers the best coffee beans with 85+ cupping notes. We roast coffee beans
in small batches and schedule the roasting process in a way to totally consume the roasted beans in maximum 1 week time while they are still fresh. This guarantees that our customers always have the freshest and the highest quality coffee at Barbarossa.

Beyond all of the above, there is one thing that totally distinguishes Barbarossa from the crowd and that is everyone who works at Barbarossa is also a

Today we’d like to introduce you to Oguzhan (Ozzy) Guragac.
Oguzhan, let’s start with your story. We’d love to hear how you got started and how the journey has been so far.
Coffee has always been a passion for me. Thanks to my duty in the Navy, I had the privilege to travel to many different destinations and to visit over 1,000 coffee shops – which was one of my favorite activities when abroad.
Following my active duty in the Navy, I was assigned as the supply chain manager of the catering services of the Navy and that position opened new horizons to me giving me the courage to become an entrepreneur and bring my lifelong passion of running a coffee business into action.

Not bad for a quick hang out with some buddies or a loner study session. Nice atmosphere. Not exactly your go-to breakfast place.

I really dig the vibe of this place. The staff are extremely sweet and the selection of food and drink are tasty. There's a very "Cheers" kind of vibe to this place that I dig.

Unique local coffee shop with several different "brew styles". I highly recommend trying it out! They also have some unique food items like cheese balls!

Comfortable environment and friendly service. They have healthy salad and quick meal options. Good place to get some reading or work done as well. Tea, coffee, and smoothies available. Toilet present in the back.

Excellent service and high quality product.
I highly recommend the Turkish coffee myself.
Some may think the prices to high. But for those who want that little extra in their coffee and food. This is the place to go.

Both times I've been here I got a good cup of coffee. Looks like the snacks and lunch items have grown since last time.

Barbarossa Coffee is much more than just coffee. Breakfast, lunch,light snacks and desserts are on the menu. All are of excellent food quality. My wife and I have had the cheesecake and rice pudding recently. The pudding is traditional Turkish style. Very good. The coffees
are all great. I have not yet had a milkshake or smoothie but do intend to. Usually quiet but can get loud inside as it is a small space.

Very cute, small coffee shop. We had the breakfast tacos and waffle which were both quite delicious. The coffee is well brewed and everything has a nice modern take on it. We really enjoyed our outing. Staff was super friendly and helpful as it was our first time.
I also loved that they have Turkish coffee and chemex options. I'll be sure to try those on our next visit.

A third wave coffee shop with amazing staff members and high quality sourced coffee with various brew methods to choose from. The food is as good as the coffee.
It is definitely worth visiting over chain stores or other local shops.

This place is rad. It has a good atmosphere, kinda small, but quite cozy. The staff is kind and helpful when deciding what to drink or with any sort of recommendations. They offer a variety of specialty coffee drinks as well as tea. They do have a pastry case however I didn’t order anything from it. The coffee was quite smooth, a medium I believe, in which I had in a chemex (they also offer it in a siphon pot for $7, which is pretty standard, but totally worth it) which was amazing. Check this place out, it’s local, it’s cool, and the coffee drinks will make you drool. (Not sorry for rhyming)

My husband and I walk to this place every Saturday. Coffee is phenomenal, tea is phenomenal. Their lattes are great too. The owners run Barbarossa with much integrity; they are great people. So we will continue to give them our business. 🙂
