Usually found behind the coffee counter, customers come to her for advice on everything tea and coffee related, and when she's allowed to escape, you may often see her delivering to many of our wholesale customers throughout Sussex.

More About Me


After all her barista training she makes her Dad perfect espressos. She knows only too well how much he moans when it isn't just perfect! So much so he is banned from drinking coffee when out and about with Sophie as nothing tastes as good as his favorite Moka D'or.

THE DRURY HISTORY
75 years of tea blending and coffee roasting has established Drury as a name for quality, consistency and traditional values.
Drury was founded in London in 1936 by three Italian brothers and who have built a reputation as one of the leading specialists in the coffee and tea markets. Over the past 70 years, we have become part of the history of coffee – it’s our passion as well as our field of expertise.
In 1965 Drury Coffee was introduced to Brighton, with its first branch in Edward Street, supplying retail and wholesale customers with the freshest coffee available and a wide range of fine teas.
In 2002 The Davids & Lewis family took over the Brighton branch, bringing a whole new level of customer service, selling Rancilio commercial espresso machines. With many years of engineering experience, we were able to provide our customers repair and servicing assistance.
In January 2006, we moved to Richardson Road, in Hove, where we house a service centre, machine showroom and spacious shop with café where customers can sample our large range of coffee and teas. Many of our retail customers have been visiting us since the 60s and enjoy the friendly atmosphere and personal service that we offer. We welcome everyone from the coffee connoisseurs to amateur tasters and the first time coffee drinkers.
We remain committed to providing both quality products and quality service for many more years to come. We offer more than a coffee or just a cup of tea. From hand-sown tea leaves to Monsooned Malabar Beans, Drury Southern is your only local specialist wholesaler and retailer for some of the finest coffee and teas on the market
