Habit Coffee

Habit is a coffee community

Our vision for Habit was a hub for people to connect with friends and the local community. That, and of course to provide everyone with the best coffee we could possibly brew.

Our coffee is made even better by the fact that all our beans are ethically sourced :) We care just as much about the people who grow the coffee beans as we do the people who drink them. None of this would be possible without our roasting partner, BowsxArrows. We have been working exclusively with them since day one. We seek out partners that share our vision of ethical, responsible, and community-based business practices, and who focus on quality in every detail.

After you're done sipping your latte, be sure to check out our sister spot Sherwood for some delicious wine and great food.

Sustainability

We work closely with local green business consultants, Synergy Enterprises, to maintain carbon neutral operations in both of our locations for the last 10+ years. Only 4% of what we produce ends up in a landfill! On top of that, the two Habit locations combined produce less than half the emissions of the average cafe, or 36% less emissions than the average Canadian family. All our coffee and supplies continue to be transported between shops via Dutch cargo bike, which helps us maintain a low carbon footprint (and is also really really fun).

Compost all organics, paper cups & paper towel

Full recycling program, and return of shipping boxes from roaster to be reused for future deliveries

Carbon offsets purchased to mitigate climate impact

We support local business

We love to shop locally. That’s why we source as much as possible from Victoria businesses, from coffee beans to sweet treats. Check out some of our partners and friends:
