We imported our Italian-made drum roaster over 20 years
ago and, after some training time in Italy, began craft-roasting gourmet
espresso coffee in Chicago. We've been making Carioca, our signature
espresso coffee ever since, and have been delivering and shipping coffee to
restaurants and cafes in and around Chicago for many years.
Now, thanks to the wonders of the Internet, we're ready to deliver our beautiful espresso directly to your door.
The Expresso Shoppe is dedicated to helping our customers share in the joy of great espresso coffee. We make great espresso coffee and we sell and repair espresso machines. That's all. It's enough. Okay, we do a little more than that, but only to feed the espresso coffee habit.
If you use it to make or enjoy espresso coffee, we probably have it.
If it makes coffee and is broken, we can fix it.
You've come to the right place.
PLEASE NOTE: We've been here since 1982; we've got a lot of parts and pieces and a lot of history - it's going to take us a while to move it all online and get used to 'working the web'. If there's something you need and don't find here, feel free to contact us.
