Mountanos Family Coffee & Tea Co. is the result of two determined Greek brothers who hit the streets of a post-Gold Rush San Francisco, California, in pursuit of the American dream. Selling their first pound of roasted coffee in 1898 from a mule-drawn cart on a bustling Market Street, Stratis and Richard Mountanos quickly learned how a passion for excellence—and a great cup of coffee—earned not just a loyal customer, but also a fast friend. Five generations later, we’re still a family owned and operated business; we’re still obsessing over the perfect roast; and as chance would have it, we’ve discovered a penchant for sourcing the world’s best premium teas, too. Above all, we continue to make friends with every cup.
