Strangers Coffee Company

Strangers Coffee Company was established in 2009 by Alex Sargeant and Samuel Maddocks with William Maddocks later joining the team in 2014

Together they have set up a multi award-winning coffee shop & roastery which are located in the Norwich Lanes, as well as opening third location found on the other side of the city centre on All Saints Green. The three brothers have spent over a decade learning the skills of the industry, focusing on the quality & ethics of the coffees they source, roast and serve.

The cafe on Pottergate is a great place to sit and watch the world go by with a range of homemade cakes, sandwiches and salads to accompany the choice of a number of different coffees on offer.

The Roastery on Dove Street is perfect to grab a cup of coffee or a bag of beans to take away whilst seeing the production side of roasting coffee.

Their latest venture is a new coffee shop located on All Saints Green, serving the same great selection of coffees, it has two floors with the first a place to grab a quick takeaway coffee whilst the second is the perfect spot for those looking to tuck away and work on their laptops.


The friendly & knowledgeable staff at all locations are on hand to answer all your coffee-related questions. From how to make the perfect cup at home to learning about the different processes involved, they’re always happy to help. You can also buy coffee beans or ground coffee from any of the locations or their online shop.
