The Brüh. Hafen shop at dusk, its red counter glowing through the window onto the wet quayside.

Rhine coffee since 2016

Seven shops. One roast.

One espresso recipe, seven identical red counters between Duisburg and Bonn. Roasted every Tuesday at the Hafen, poured everywhere else by Wednesday.

This badge is set by hand from the till in the shop each time the queue changes, and it refreshes here every five minutes. It is an honest estimate from the people making your coffee, not a measurement — at busy moments it can be a few minutes out in either direction.

One roast, seven counters

We stopped chasing a new single origin every fortnight in 2019. Since then there has been one house espresso, roasted in the Hafen, and it is the same cup in Bonn as it is in Neuss.

Sieben — the house espresso
60% washed Brazil, 25% Colombian, 15% natural Ethiopian. Roasted medium, rested six days, dialled in the same way at every bar.
Roasted at the Hafen
A 25 kg drum roaster behind the flagship counter runs Tuesday and Friday. Nothing leaves the building older than fourteen days.
Same recipe, every bar
18.5 g in, 38 g out, 27 seconds. Every shop grinds to that, checks it three times a day, and writes it on the board.

All prices include German VAT.

The five things that make up more than half of every day's till, at the same price in all seven shops.

Latte€3.60
Cold brew€3.90
Breakfast bagel€4.90
House beans 500 g€16
10-drink card€29

Allergens and additives are listed on the printed card in every shop, and our team will tell you anything that is not on it. Oat, soy and lactose-free milk cost nothing extra.

All seven shops

Seven corners of the Rhine

From the Innenhafen in Duisburg to the Altstadt in Bonn. Each shop keeps its own hours, its own regulars, and its own queue.

The card, the app, the free tenth cup

Ten drinks for €29 on a paper card or in the app — the tenth is on us either way. No points, no tiers, no birthday email.

What regulars say

Collected from our own feedback cards in the shops. First name and shop only — nothing else is kept.

  • I have had the same flat white in four of their shops and I genuinely could not tell you which one was which. That is the entire point and it is harder than it sounds.
    Miriam · Köln Ehrenfeld
  • The wait badge has changed my mornings. If Ehrenfeld says long I walk two minutes further and get my coffee in three. It is right far more often than it is wrong.
    Deniz · Köln Rheinauhafen
  • Small shop, open at half six, out by ten past. They know I take a cortado before I have said anything. Nine years of harbour shifts and this is the first coffee I have looked forward to.
    Rüdiger · Neuss Hafenbecken
  • We work out of the Rheinauhafen shop two afternoons a week. Nobody has ever asked us to leave, the Wi-Fi holds, and the cheesecake is dangerous.

Common questions

The five we answer most often at the counter.

Is the wait time on this site real?

It is as real as a person tapping a button can be. The team at each till sets short, medium or long whenever the queue changes, and this page shows the last setting, refreshed every five minutes. No sensor, no camera, no counting — so treat it as a good guess from the people making your coffee rather than a measurement.

Do you deliver?

No. You can order ahead for pickup from any of the seven shops and collect it at the end of the bar, but nothing goes out on a moped. Coffee does not survive the journey and we would rather see you.

Is the price the same in every shop?

Yes, including the two shops run by partners. A latte is €3.60 in Bonn, in Duisburg and at the Hafen, sitting in or taking away.

Can I bring my own cup?

Please do — you get 30 cents off any drink, in every shop. We also sell a 350 ml steel cup at the counter if you would rather have ours.

Where do the beans come from?

Sieben, our house espresso, is 60% washed Brazilian, 25% Colombian and 15% natural Ethiopian, bought through the same two importers since 2019. It is roasted at the Hafen shop and the bags are stamped with the roast date.

Thinking about a Brüh. of your own?

Two of our seven shops are run by partners. We open one or two a year and we are picky about both.
