Our History

COFFEE ISLAND

from 1999 to TODAY

In 1999 in Patras, it all started with a love for quality (specialty) coffee. In 2009, with the strengthening of the team, we envisioned something completely fresh, innovative and original; the creation of a new experience for quality coffee in your hand. From 1999 until today, the magical journey into the world of coffee offers us special surprises.
