Walking into the loft, nestled amongst the industrial buildings east of the Morgan L train stop, I am not only greeted by Tobin Polk (co-owner alongside Lance Schnorenberg) and Aric Carroll, self-described “task master,” (aka operations manager) but also by Charlie the cat and the faint sound of a needle pressed on a warm folk record playing in a carry-on turntable. This is Lofted Coffee, a roaster of high-quality, sustainable coffee who, perched in their Bushwick loft, are hoping to take coffee culture by storm.
