Sri Poornima Coffee Works

If you head over to Rajajinagar 1st Main, near 7th Cross Chamrajpet 17/43, you’ll find us at Sri Poornima Coffee Works. The first thing you usually notice is the smell of the beans. We’ve been roasting and grinding here for a long time. The machines we use are old and loud, but they still get the job done every single day. We spend most of our mornings getting the bags ready. It’s a lot of manual work. We don't have a big staff, just a few of us who know how the grinders sound when they’re working right. The shop itself is quite small and filled with sacks of raw beans stacked up in the corners. It’s not a place where people sit down; they usually just come in to get their weekly supply and head back out. We see the same faces every Saturday morning. Some of them have been coming since before I started working here. The address at 17/43 is easy to miss if you aren't looking for it, as we’re tucked between a few other small shops. The floor is always covered in a fine layer of coffee dust no matter how much we clean. It’s just part of the job. We don’t have fancy packaging or big advertisements. Just plain bags and a scale that’s seen better days. It's a simple life at Rajajinagar 1st Main. We just focus on getting the grinding done and making sure the bags are weighed right for the customers.
