Veteran Roasters Coffee

The mission just got bigger!

Introducing the Veteran Roasters Barista Corps Training Program — hands-on barista training for veterans, with real certification and real job placement through our partners at Illinois Hotel & Lodging Association and Veterans Path to Hope.

Before our first cohort pulled their first shot, our founder Mark took every one of them to Walmart and made sure they were suited up — head to toe in Rags of Honor

Skills. A certificate. A career. That's what we're building here. Because this is what it's all about — serving those who served our country.

Welcome, Summer 2026 Cohort. We're proud to have you.

Proud to launch this alongside Big Shoulders Coffee | Hotel & Lodging Association | Veterans Path to Hope

A good pour-over takes patience, precision, and care.

Today, Dion and Mark brought that craft to the National Restaurant Association Restaurant, Hotel-Motel Show in Chicago, serving Veteran Roasters coffee at our partner Tradecraft’s booth.

Thank you to the amazing Tradecraft Coffee + Tea team for helping us share great coffee with a greater mission.

Honestly, they're all awesome!

Not sure where to start? Here’s a quick breakdown—
Or, make it easy and just try them all ☕🇺🇸

Enlisted Roast (Light Roast)
Light, smooth, with a hint of floral and nutty notes. Easy going—but packs the biggest punch. Gets the job done.

Cup O’ Joe (Medium Roast)
Balanced, smooth, and reliable. They classic kind that you rely on.

Night Ops (Dark Roast)
Bold, rich, with deep chocolate and caramel notes. Built for early mornings and long nights.

Admiral’s Blend (Extra Bold Roast)
Full-bodied, low acidity, and strong without the bite. This one means business.

Cup O’ Joe Decaf (Medium Roast, Decaf)
All the flavor of your go-to, none of the caffeine. Because sometimes one more cup just makes sense.

Whatever you want—there’s a blend for it.

Today, RED Friday carries extra weight.

In recent weeks, American service members have been killed in the ongoing conflict involving Iran and the Middle East.

More than a dozen lives lost.
Many more forever changed.

Behind every number is a name.
A family.
A story.

Take a moment today.

We honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
We stand with the families carrying that loss.
And we recognize those still serving.

Sure, our founder Mark might be a little biased… but he also doesn’t even like iced lattes.

So when he says this might be the best one in Chicago right now,
you should probably come try one. 🍀

Mint Chocolate Iced Latte — at the café (161 N Clark St), available until our luck runs out… or until St. Patrick’s Day.
