Greenpoint cafe from 2005, whose roastery moved to a former flower warehouse.
Caroline Bell and Chris Timbrell opened the first Café Grumpy in Greenpoint in 2005, after training in Seattle with Kyle Glanville. Roasting moved out of the back of that cafe to a former flower warehouse up the block, where a 15-kilo Probat L12 was joined by a 45-kilo Probat G45 by 2014.
Victrola was Grumpy's first roaster. Its coffee is roasted in Brooklyn.
