Lost Shoe Brewing and Roasting Company is one of the beloved local roasters we follow in Massachusetts: an independent roaster based in Marlborough. Here is what their own pages and public sources say about them, in our words.
Their story
This independent business brews beer and roasts coffee under one roof, with a taproom in downtown Marlborough. Co-owner Melynda handles the roasting and sources coffees from many origins, with a soft spot for fruity Ethiopians. A second roaster, Caleb, credits Melynda with teaching him the craft, and staff can sign out books to study beer and coffee.
Coffee is sold by the bag and on recurring or gift subscriptions, with online orders ready for pickup in the taproom. Spent brewing grain goes to a local farmer who feeds it to more than a hundred chickens, and used coffee grounds are set out free for customers to take home.
Where to drink it
The downtown taproom opens daily at 7 am for coffee and pours beer from 11 am.
Address

Why buying from Lost Shoe Brewing and Roasting Company matters here
The taproom's look nods to Marlborough's past as a shoe manufacturing center, which also gave the company its name. Each winter the taproom becomes the Lost Forest, and its February wizard-themed version has raised over $10,000 for local groups serving LGBTQ+ youth. Free parking is available in the garage facing the taproom, and the Assabet River Rail Trail is less than a mile off.
Every bag bought from a Marlborough roaster pays roasting and cafe wages in Massachusetts, and the coffee reaches you days after roasting instead of months. That is the reason the club exists. Why local roasters matter.
