Why Durham businesses choose Split Bean
People you can get hold of
When you call, you get the people who know your setup and your machine. We are a small North East team, family run and at it since 2009, so the people who recommend your machine are the ones who fit it and look after it.
About usTry before you buy
Book a visit to our showroom in Gateshead, a short run up the A1 from Durham. See the machines running and taste the coffee, so you choose what genuinely suits you. Visits are by appointment, so you get our full attention.
Set up and looked after
We install the machine, show your team how to run it and keep the coffee coming, then stay on hand whenever you need us. One local team for the whole thing.

Durham stays busy. That is an opportunity.
Durham rarely goes quiet. The Cathedral and Castle pull visitors all year, thousands of students fill the city in term time, and events like Lumiere bring big crowds in. That is a lot of people passing your door who would happily buy a good coffee.
For a cafe, hotel or any business serving the public, that is worth getting right. Great coffee is one of the easiest ways to catch passing trade, stand out and give people a reason to come back. We help you set up to serve it well even on the busiest days, so the footfall turns into takings rather than a queue you cannot keep up with.
