Assembly Coffee

Coffee by TEAMMC Cycles x Assembly Coffee – For Cyclists, By Cyclists

At TEAMMC Cycles, every pedal stroke begins with connection – to the road, to the community, and to the fuel that powers our journey. We believe that great coffee and great cycling share the same values: precision, care and a sense of purpose. That’s why we’ve partnered with Assembly Coffee, a London-based roaster that shares our commitment to sustainability, craftsmanship and community. Together, we’re serving more than just a cup of coffee – we’re serving a statement.
Whether you’re setting off on a ride, stopping mid-route for a recharge, or celebrating your climb or group ride finish, our café is your hub for exceptional coffee and friendly faces.

Craftsmanship Rooted in Quality

Serious cyclists know every detail matters – from the gear ratio to the tyre pressure to fuel and hydration. The same attention to detail goes into the coffee you’ll drink here at TEAMMC Cycles. Assembly Coffee’s approach is built around responsible sourcing, collaboration with origin farms, and conscious roasting. According to their own “Shared Roasting” programme, they “source coffees from unique and progressive supply chains … participate in value creation and sustainability initiatives at origin.”

Take their agroforest-project in Brazil (“Sombra”) for example. It’s designed to challenge full-sun monocultures and the damage they inflict on soil diversity and biodiversity.

That means your coffee isn’t just flavourful; it’s grown in a way that honours the land and the people behind it.

At the TEAMMC Cycles café, you’ll taste it in every cup: precision-roasted beans that deliver clarity, balance and rich character. Whether you’re after an energising espresso before your ride, a full-bodied filter afterwards, or a smooth flat white while you reflect on the route – you’ll get it. And you’ll know it’s the real deal.

A Community Built Around Coffee & Cycling

Cycling brings people together – regardless of pace, distance or background. At TEAMMC Cycles, we believe that a café should be the same: a space where riders meet, share their stories and find new friends. Our collaboration with Assembly Coffee brings this philosophy into your drink, too. They’re not just a typical roaster – they focus on sustainability of both product and people.
When you stop by our café, you’re not just buying coffee. You’re joining a network of riders and coffee enthusiasts who believe in better choices: locally sourced, ethically grown, well roasted and sustainably served. Your cup becomes part of a bigger story: one of community, of respect for the planet and of shared journeys.

Sustainable from Bean to Bike

Sustainability matters in cycling – it’s the reason we spin pedals instead of fill cars, the reason we prefer fresh air to exhaust fumes. And it matters in coffee. Assembly Coffee has taken steps like optimising their footprint, achieving carbon-neutral certification and supporting regenerative projects.

By working with them, we bring those same values to the coffee we serve you. From the moment the bean is grown, to the roast, to the cup you hold, the chain is shaped by care. We aim to align our cycling ethos – minimal impact, maximum joy – with every part of your experience. That means sustainable sourcing, minimal waste, traceability and transparency.

The Perfect Start (or Finish) to Your Ride

Imagine this: you arrive at the TEAMMC Cycles café after logging your kilometres. You park your bike, grab a seat, breathe in the aroma of fresh coffee. You sip. The flavour is clean, rich, and purposeful. You look around and there are fellow riders, maps, stories, bikes leaning against walls. It’s about more than speed – it’s about belonging.

You came for the ride; you stay for the coffee and the connection. Your cup of Assembly Coffee served by TEAMMC Cycles isn’t just a drink – it’s a reminder that every ride starts and ends in a community that cares.
