7. Brooklyn Roasting Company

As we covered in our Top 10 Coffee Shops in Brooklyn, Brooklyn Roasting Company has been rapidly expanding as they’ve taken over the former warehouse at 25 Jay Street in DUMBO. This coffee company takes being “green” very seriously – not only are their beans all fair-trade, Rainbow Alliance and organic certified, but they also use recycled materials and refurbished equipment throughout their shop. Their funky coffee blends range from “Cedar & Sweet Summer Fruit: Tanzania Peaberry” to “Noble, Nutty, Sweet & Stout: Rwanda.”
