The Old Village Roaster is a long-standing Huntington institution that specializes in small-batch coffee roasting using antique equipment dating back to the late 1800s. Founded in 1995 by Pete and Vicky Cooper, the shop evolved from a mobile peanut-roasting business into a downtown staple located near the historic Keith-Albee Performing Arts Center. Beyond their coffee program, the shop is a community fixture known for its house-roasted nuts, homemade caramel corn, and cozy, historic atmosphere. The business maintains a traditional approach to the craft, sourcing green coffee beans from approximately ten different countries to provide a variety of fresh-brewed options daily.

Physical

I was able to verify that The Old Village Roaster sells its coffee beans directly at its physical location in Huntington, West Virginia; however, I could not find evidence of an official e-commerce website or third-party retail distribution for their coffee beans.

These references come from public store locators, retailer listings and brand materials. Last checked Oct 31, 2026. They are research links, not proof of current stock or a buying recommendation. Verify availability, price and location directly with the source.
