Cedar roasts at Side Street Studios on Albert Road in Woodstock. Public access needs checking before a visit: the current official address is for collections and appointments, while earlier accounts describe a roastery cafe. Arrange a visit directly rather than assuming you can walk in for coffee. Cedar Hatch in the Lemkus building is the central coffee-counter alternative.
The Woodstock premises combine roasting, a retail coffee range and order collection. The address is Unit 10B, Side Street Studios, 48 Albert Road. Confirm access and what will be served when arranging an appointment; a coffee or pastry should not be assumed to be available with every collection.
Coffee style
Cedar sells single origins, blends, decaf and brewing equipment. Coffees are available whole bean or ground for methods including espresso, moka pot, plunger, filter and Aeropress. Choose the grind for your equipment when ordering, or buy whole beans if you have a grinder at home.
What people go for
The online range includes African and Latin American coffees alongside the seasonal and Milky Way blends. If collecting an order, wait for confirmation that it is ready and follow the collection instructions. Ask about an appointment separately if tasting or a conversation with the roasters is the purpose of the visit.
Cake and pastry
Earlier events at Albert Road included pastries and guest food, but they do not establish a daily kitchen or pastry service. Check the current arrangement when booking. For a meal, plan another stop; for coffee in the city centre, check Cedar Hatch's current opening hours.
The feel
Cedar Hatch offers a smaller city-centre visit in the Lemkus building on St Georges Mall. The counter has served the Milky Way blend, rotating single origins and pour-over coffee. It is the more practical starting point for a drink when you have not arranged access to the Woodstock roastery.
Planning a visit
Choose Cedar for its roasting range and retail beans. Decide between a planned Woodstock collection or appointment and a city-centre Hatch visit before travelling. The roastery's public cafe status remains uncertain, so the existing Woodstock listing should not be read as confirmation of daily walk-in service.
