About Coffee Class
History and Concept
Coffee Class is located at Wateringen 23 in De Groote Wielen in ’s-Hertogenbosch. The company lists a contact address, phone number, email address, and KVK number on its own channels. Public opening hours are listed as Monday through Sunday from 10:00 to 21:00. LinkedIn describes Coffee Class as a company in Food and Beverage Services, with ’s-Hertogenbosch as the main location and 2025 as the founding year.
The business is linked in available materials to Mike van Es and Nazik van Es-Göksel. The team page names Mike van Es as “Barista & Roaster” and Nazik van Es-Göksel as “Barista & Tea Sommelier”. It also states that they work together as a couple. The public story page connects their background in education to their current work with coffee and tea. Sharing knowledge, patience, and craftsmanship are mentioned as elements carried over from that previous path.
The concept of Coffee Class combines several elements. The company presents itself as a coffee roastery, a hub for coffee knowledge, and a provider of specialty coffee, fresh tea, and brewing essentials. According to their own explanation, the name refers both to a place where coffee drinkers can learn and to a quality designation for products. A separate public opening date for a public coffee bar at this address is not documented in the provided research.
