Real Deal Roasters

Real Deal Roasters is based in Deal, Kent, and has been operating since 2013. The proposition is deliberately straightforward: specialty grade coffee at prices closer to supermarket than specialty market, with a wider range of certified options than most comparable roasters.

The offering includes Rainforest Alliance, Fair Trade, and organic certifications across different beans, rather than positioning a single certification as a blanket statement. The roastery sells online and through a local café in Deal, with free delivery within the town.

The range extends to green beans for home roasters, which is an unusual addition at this end of the market. Real Deal also offers a seven-bean selection box as an entry point for customers exploring different origins and processes.
