Royal Flamingo / Columbus, OH
Royal Flamingo’s famous saying is they make “serious coffee for unserious people.” The brand’s originality can be found everywhere, from their unmistakable Flamingo logo to their wild yet incredible tasting summer coffee menu (they have a watermelon espresso tonic.)
Award Winning Ohio Coffee
What also sets them apart is their coffee itself. Royal Flamingo have been racking up awards of late, most recently named the #2 independent coffee shop in the country by USA Today! Founder and head roaster Bryan’s roasts also took home awards at the 2026 Golden Bean Series: Silver in Espresso with Milk, Bronze in Espresso with Alt Milk, and Bronze in Filter. Serious coffee, as they say!
Head roaster Bryan has selected the India Ratnagiri light/medium roast, and the Burundi Busambo #15 light roast for September. To say we’re excited to try coffees from one of the best Columbus coffee roasters would be an understatement!
