Independent Ann Arbor coffee roaster John Roos's business specializes in high-quality, free speech coffee.  Cafe and roaster at 1155 Rosewood St, and a new (2016) cafe downtown at 117 East Liberty.  John is a chef, a drummer, and an artist.  With Roos Roast, he "finally found a way to sell his art."  He's also a purist, and a student of all that is coffee culture.

Local bike delivery. Available at some area stores (eg. Sparrow Meat and Produce) and served at some area restaurants. 

The Liberty Street store has a Stern Marvel "Guardians of the Galaxy" pinball machine (2023).

With the help of Stadium Hardware's engineering team, John converted a Nuova Simonelli lever pull machine originally from Akire from Italian to American propane fittings, mounted it on an old hot dog cart, and now has off-the-grid espresso at Farmer's Market.
