Brunch,
done well

A short, considered brunch menu that changes with the seasons. Sourdough, seasonal produce, and nothing that doesn't belong here.

"We roast small because it's the only way to know what you're serving. Every batch has a name, a farm, a reason."
— The Roaster, Hollow & Vine

About the roastery

Roasted here.
Served here.
No shortcuts.

Hollow & Vine Roastery sits in the heart of North Laine, Brighton — a plant-filled café and working roastery where every bean is roasted in small weekly batches on-site. We trace each coffee back to its farm, so you know exactly where your cup came from. The café, the brunch menu, the workshops — all of it exists to slow things down and do them properly.

Single-origin beans, sourced direct from farms we trust.

Roasted every week in-house, never sitting on a shelf for months.

A North Laine space built for staying a while.
