Why go
Coffee roasted in Vilnius, a bakery working under the same name, and a choux pastry that regulars single out.
Roasted in Vilnius, baked in house
BREW. Specialty Coffee runs three linked parts under one name: coffee bars, a roastery and a bakery. The coffee side is not simply a counter offer. The company works with certified suppliers and growers, chooses each variety deliberately, and roasts in Vilnius, so the cup and the production sit in the same city rather than at opposite ends of a supply chain. The result is a single-origin focus weighted toward Africa and Latin America, with Ethiopian, Rwandan, Colombian and Honduran lots moving through the list. It also changes what the bar is for: a cup here is a sample of the roastery's current thinking, not a fixed house blend repeated all year.
A Vilnius coffee room with Nordic lines
The interior is warm and stylish in a Nordic idiom, which gives it more of a designed character than a grab-and-go counter would have. It works for both socialising and working: much of the room is laptop-friendly, and it still draws people who come to meet and talk rather than to sit quietly behind a screen. Being backed by its own roastery and bakery changes how the place reads too, less a stand-alone espresso bar than the front of a small production business, which is worth knowing before deciding how long to stay. It is also a useful reference point for the wider Vilnius coffee scene, since almost everything it serves is made under its own roof. The brand was recognised in the European Coffee Trip Awards in 2025.
Order the choux pastry first
Start with the choux pastry. It is the bake regulars mention most, and it fits the bakery-led half of the identity better than a generic pastry order would. Cakes and pastries are a real part of the draw here rather than an accessory to the coffee, so it is worth reading the case before settling on the drink. For coffee to take home, the named beans are the obvious route: Ethiopia Tracon, Rwanda Gisanga, Colombia El Paraiso, Colombia El Obraje, Honduras San Rafael and Colombia CGLE Sweet Valley, all roasted in the city. Buying a bag is the natural end of a visit here, because it closes the loop between the counter and the roastery.

Frequently asked questions
What should I order at BREW. Specialty Coffee?
The choux pastry is the bake regulars single out, and it sits closest to the bakery half of the business. Beside it, order coffee from the house roast: the single origins run through Ethiopian, Rwandan, Colombian and Honduran lots, all roasted in Vilnius rather than bought in.
Can I work at BREW. Specialty Coffee?
Yes, for the most part. The room is Nordic in style, warm and comfortable, and much of it is laptop-friendly, though it also draws people who come to meet and talk. Treating it as a working café for a stretch of the morning is entirely normal here, and the counter service keeps it simple.
