La Bohème Café

Premium coffee roaster

La Bohème Café is not just about coffee – it’s a whole culture built on passion, craftsmanship and emotion. Born in Prague and inspired by the world, we believe that truly exceptional coffee shouldn’t just taste great – it should leave something in your mouth. Every cup is a story. Every sip is an experience.

We create more than just taste. We create moments that stay – in the head and in the heart. Coffee is a daily ritual for us, a moment of pause, pleasure and connection.

We are constantly searching for unique coffee varieties for you, from the remote islands of Indonesia to the mountains of Central Africa.
