Our Story
Kape and Co. was born from love, travel, and a deep appreciation for Filipino culture.We’re Will and Rory — two lads from the UK who, through life, found our way to the Philippines by falling in love with our partners. What started as relationships soon became something much bigger. After years together, we travelled to the Philippines and experienced life the Filipino way: the food, the coffee, the warmth, the music, the laughter, and the unshakeable sense of community.And we fell in love — properly.In the Philippines, coffee isn’t rushed. Meals are shared. Strangers become friends. Life slows down just enough to remind you what really matters. We knew straight away that this was something special, and something we wanted to bring home with us.That’s where Kape and Co. began.Right now, we’re sharing our love of coffee online, sourcing and selling incredible beans from around the world while we work closely towards introducing Philippine-origin coffee to our collection. Philippine coffee has a rich history and unique flavour profile that deserves to be celebrated, and we can’t wait to share it with you.
WHAT WE STAND FOR
Our Values
Everything we do is guided by our love for Filipino coffee culture, our commitment to quality, and the communities we serve.
Passion for Craft
Every cup we serve is a labor of love — from sourcing the finest Philippine beans to perfecting each roast profile.
Sustainable Roots
We partner directly with Filipino farmers, ensuring fair trade and eco-conscious practices from farm to cup.
Community First
Our café is more than a coffee shop — it's a gathering place where stories are shared and friendships bloom.
Filipino Heritage
We celebrate the rich coffee traditions of the Philippines, honoring Barako, Benguet, and every bean in between.
HOW IT ALL BEGAN
Our Vision & Purpose
But Kape and Co. is about more than just coffee. Our long-term dream is to open Kape and Co. coffee shops across the UK, welcoming spaces inspired by the Philippines, where people can grab a quality coffee on the go or slow down, sit together, and enjoy authentic Filipino culture. We imagine places filled with Filipino coffee, traditional dishes, music, laughter, karaoke nights, and community events, all within a warm and inviting atmosphere where everyone feels at home, a space to experience the spirit of the Philippines without needing a plane ticket. As part of our commitment, 10% of our proceeds are dedicated to the Philippines, supporting fair pay, ethical working conditions, responsible sourcing, and communities affected by climate challenges. Transparency, respect, and authenticity sit at the heart of everything we do. Our goal is simple: to share what we love, honour where it comes from, and build something meaningful cup by cup.
Welcome to Kape and Co.
We’re truly glad you’re here.
