About Coffeecompany Nieuwe Binnenweg
History and Concept
Coffeecompany Nieuwe Binnenweg is a Rotterdam branch of Coffeecompany located at Nieuwe Binnenweg 182. According to company information, the location sits on the border of Oude Westen and Middelland. The address is listed as Nieuwe Binnenweg 182, 3015 BJ Rotterdam. Opening hours are Monday through Friday from 08:00 to 18:00. On weekends, the shop is open from 08:30 to 18:00.
The branch is also referred to as CC Nieuwe Binnenweg. A local article about the Nieuwe Binnenweg reports that the shop opened in the spring of 2023. This marked Coffeecompany’s fifth location in Rotterdam. The shop is housed in a corner building previously occupied by GYS, effectively repurposing an existing hospitality space within the Rotterdam shopping street.
Coffeecompany’s roots are in Amsterdam. The company states that its first location opened in 1996 at Leidsestraat 60. The founding is attributed to two interests: Dick de Kock’s focus on coffee and Rick Bekkema’s interest in the urban coffee ritual. Bekkema had observed this ritual in cities like New York and London. De Ondernemer names Rick Bekkema as the founder and Dick de Kock as his business partner focusing on the coffee side.
Role in the Neighborhood
Coffeecompany describes its broader concept as a chain with a community function. This includes locations that occasionally host performances and provide wall space for local designers and artists. For the Nieuwe Binnenweg branch, no specific permanent community activities were found in the available research. However, the location fits within the general model that Coffeecompany describes for its outlets.
Coffee and Brewing
No separate, publicly documented menu was found for Coffeecompany Nieuwe Binnenweg in the sources researched. As a result, it cannot be determined exactly which full drink list applies specifically to this branch. The location’s business page does mention White Chocolate Matcha. For coffee, one should primarily refer to the general information published by Coffeecompany regarding drinks and brewing methods.
On its public beverage pages, Coffeecompany discusses various preparations. These include espresso-based drinks, filter coffee, Aeropress, flash brew, flat white, cortado, and iced latte. This information applies at the chain level and is not location-specific. For readers, this distinction is important. While these preparations provide an overview of Coffeecompany’s coffee framework, they do not constitute a proven full menu for the Rotterdam branch.
Roastery and Assortment
“The documented roaster behind the coffee is Coffeecompany itself. The company lists its own roasting facility at Zeeburgerpad 13 in Amsterdam. Since 2013, Coffeecompany has roasted part of its assortment in Amsterdam-Oost, focusing on single-origin coffees and experiments with blends. Again, this information applies at the corporate level, rather than being a specific description of the Nieuwe Binnenweg location.”
“Having their own roasting facility indicates internal control over part of the supply chain. At the same time, available information remains limited. The research does not specify which particular beans, roast profiles, or rotating coffees are served at the Nieuwe Binnenweg location. Consequently, a detailed assessment of the local offering is not possible based on the provided data.”
“Sourcing and producers”
“Coffeecompany describes its sourcing as either direct or through partners who value quality and price transparency. According to the company, “direct” means, among other things, having direct contact with producers. Coffeecompany also mentions visits to producers and price agreements between the involved parties. Additionally, the company states that it shares origin information about the coffees it sells.”
“The available information mentions several producers and relationships. One example is Finca Filadelfia in Colombia, linked to Yaqueline and Oscar Hoyos. Coffeecompany states that since 2015, it has directly purchased more than half of this farm’s production. Asman Arianto and the Ribang Gayo Musara Cooperative in Sumatra are also mentioned as documented producer or cooperative references.”
Community and Professional Development
“No public workshops, cuppings, or recurring events were found in the researched material for Coffeecompany Nieuwe Binnenweg. At the corporate level, however, Coffeecompany does mention performances and space for local creators. According to the company, the Amsterdam roasting facility has organized tastings in a tasting room. Additionally, Coffeecompany mentions an internal CC Barista Cup, which has been held annually since 1998.”
Press and Recognition
“The opening of the Nieuwe Binnenweg location was mentioned in a local overview of new businesses on the street. That article dates from 12 September 2023 and places the opening in the spring of that year. Furthermore, JDE Peet’s reported on 31 May 2021 that Albron wanted to acquire Coffeecompany from JDE Peet’s. That report also mentioned the own Amsterdam roasting facility and locations in cities including Rotterdam.”
“No price list or ranking was found specifically relating to Coffeecompany Nieuwe Binnenweg. However, Coffeecompany mentions in its own archives that CC Oosterdok won the title of Best Coffee Concept in 2013 at the Hospitality & Style Award by Entree. This recognition applies to a different location and at the corporate level. Therefore, for a factual profile of the Nieuwe Binnenweg, the location, opening, and general Coffeecompany methodology remain the most relevant.”
