Bent Tree Coffee is Kent's only coffee roaster and was started in 2011 by two Kent State graduates who wanted to bring small-batch, artisan coffee to their hometown. They're open seven days a week at their downtown Kent cafe, where their roasters and baristas can help you find the perfect bag of coffee or grab a seasonal drink and fresh-baked pastry. You'll also find them on campus at the Kent State Business Building and Student Center, or at over 80 grocery stores throughout Northeast Ohio.
