About AUPA
This is more than a coffee shop. It’s a whole mood.
AUPA was born from a simple belief: your coffee break should wake more than just your brain. It should spark joy. Stir the senses. Wake your soul. We’re not here to reinvent coffee. We’re here to do it our way — with purpose, flavour, and a dash of funk & soul.

The AUPA Manifesto
We’re here to make damn good coffee, serve real food, and be that spot you actually look forward to — welcoming, energising, and never trying too hard.
Founded by Enrique de Juan - a Michelin-trained chef who found his second calling in specialty coffee - AUPA is where excellence meets “don’t take yourself too seriously.”
We roast with care, cook with love, and engage with you like you matter.
AUPA (say it loud: "A-U-PAH!") is a Spanish rallying cry, a general motivational, an energetic shout.
It means “Let’s go! - Come on! - Up you go!” - It’s energising and uplifting (like coffee itself), it inspires positivity and movement, a friendly, Mediterranean sense of community and encouragement.
That’s our energy, every day. And we hope yours too.
Values we live by
Soulful Quality
At AUPA, quality isn’t a tagline. It’s a ritual. From specialty coffee roasted locally, to chef-prepared bites made fresh each morning — everything we serve is rooted in traceability, seasonality, and real technique. We work with trusted producers, use only premium ingredients, and keep our offering honest, balanced, and soulfully satisfying.
Real Mood Food
Food and coffee aren’t just fuel — they set the tone for your day. Whether you're easing into the morning, grabbing a nourishing lunch between meetings, or picking up an afternoon treat, AUPA meets you where you are it’s designed to feel good without preaching about it. We call it “mood food” — because how you feel matters.
Grounded Community
AUPA is more than a coffee stop — it’s a place to connect. We champion collaboration with local artisans, bakers, and roasters who share our taste for quality and culture. From the music we play to the stories we tell, everything we do is built to bring people together.
