Café Integral

Nicaraguan coffee roaster and café · 1 location · NYC: Nolita

A small Nolita coffee bar that is really an import business, buying green coffee at origin and roasting it in Brooklyn. Founder César Vega still owns it, and the shop is what remains of a company that listed cafés in three cities in 2022.

Founder-run

The Big Picture

Genuinely Independent

Café Integral, a Nolita café and coffee importer, is still owned by founder César Vega, with no outside investors on record. It names the farmers behind each coffee, but its environmental claims rest on its own word: its FAQ says many coffees are Rainforest Alliance certified, yet none on its site is marked that way. It answers to Vega alone.
