✨ Meet the Directors – Chris & Karoly ✨

Behind The Dedham Coffee Collective are Chris & Karoly — partners in life and in this labour-of-love passion project.

Chris is the visionary with the creative eye. From the interior design to the refurbishment, the late nights, the hands-on work, the blood, sweat and tears — he has poured his heart into re-energising and reviving this beautiful old-fashioned tea room into the contemporary, welcoming coffee space you see today.

The goal? Keep the traditional charm… but enhance it with a modern twist, cosy café vibes, and a strong sense of community — proudly working with mostly local suppliers, from locally roasted coffee and organic teas to carefully selected wines.

Karoly works behind the scenes as Marketing Director and Events Coordinator — managing social media, partnerships, promotions and the creative direction that keeps everything moving and growing.

Together, they’re building something special — a space where everyone feels welcome.

We’re so excited for what’s coming this spring and summer 🌿✨

And none of this would be possible without our incredible team and our loyal customers who continue to support us. We are truly grateful.

Thank you for being part of our journey 🤍☕️
