About Pilot

Pilot Coffee Roasters began in May 2009 when Andy Wilkin (a Q Grader) and Jessie Holmes opened Te Aro Roasted in Toronto's Leslieville neighbourhood, taking inspiration from cafes in Wellington, New Zealand. The operation moved to Wagstaff Drive in 2013 and adopted the Pilot Coffee Roasters name.

The team sources through long-standing relationships with producers and reinvests with the communities they buy from. Roasting happens at their headquarters with consistent quality standards across every batch.
