## What is Specialty Atlas?

Find specialty coffee worth your time - and see how it all connects.

Specialty Atlas maps verified specialty cafés, roasteries and coffee beans across Europe and beyond. Every place is added by hand, and everything is linked: a bean shows you which cafés serve it right now, which recipes bring out its best, and how other people brew it at home. One discovery leads to the next.

COFFEE MAP
Every café on the map is reviewed before it goes live - we look for places that take their coffee seriously, from sourcing to the cup. Open the map, see what's near you, filter by what matters to you: brew methods, food, work-friendly spaces, dog-friendly spots.

FIND YOUR TASTE
You know what you like but can't put it into words? Take a short quiz and get coffee beans matched to your palate. Light, fruity and floral, or deep and chocolatey - we'll show you beans that fit, which roasteries make them, and where to drink them nearby.

RECIPES AND BREWING
Build your own brewing recipes step by step, or follow ones shared by roasteries, cafés and other users. The brew player guides you through each pour with timers, so you can focus on the coffee instead of the clock. Log your results and adjust next time.

COFFEE PASSPORT
Collect a stamp every time you visit a café. Each city has its own hand-drawn stamp, and your passport fills up as you travel. Earn badges, track how far your coffee has taken you, and build a record of where you've been.

COMMUNITY
Rate cafés, read what others thought, and follow what's happening - cuppings, launches, workshops. Specialty Atlas brings together people who care about good coffee, whether they drink it, serve it or roast it.

FOR CAFÉS AND ROASTERIES
Run a specialty café or roastery? Claim your profile on our web panel, keep your beans and opening hours up to date, publish events and see how people find you.

WHY SPECIALTY ATLAS
Specialty coffee discovery is scattered across Instagram, generic maps and word of mouth - and none of it connects. A bean you loved somewhere is just a name you'll forget. Here it links back to the roastery, to the cafés pouring it, to the way it's brewed.

Discover better coffee. Explore new places. Build your coffee journey.


## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.2 — 2026-08-18

Summer cleanup

NOTIFICATIONS
- The badge on the bell clears as soon as you open your inbox - no need to tap through every notification one by one.
- When a roastery you follow adds several beans at once, you get one combined notification instead of a string of them.
- The comment digest from your favourite cafes now shows you where something is actually happening.
- The event discount push arrives on the day of the event, in the event's own time zone.

SEARCH
- Search now works without diacritics, both ways - "caffe" finds "Caffè", "rosterei" finds "Rösterei".

BUZZ
- Comment limit raised from 500 to 1000 characters, with a counter for the characters left.

BEANS AND LAB
- A saved bean that is no longer for sale is clearly marked "Temporarily unavailable".
- The bean count on a roastery card now shows only the products that are actually available.

REPORTS
- The "Suggest a cafe" topic in the contact form now has the same fields as a report sent from the map.

FIXES
- New loading screen with a coffee bean animation.
- No more blank loading screens when you open the app from a notification.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-08-14

- Refreshed events widget on the Hub

- A few small fixes

### 1.1 — 2026-08-11

1.1 - events, stamps and the map

EVENTS
- Cafes and roasteries can now add discounts for attendees. Look for the badge on the map and on event cards. The new "Deals" filter shows only events with a discount.
- Approved sign-ups. Organisers can review requests, and when an event fills up you can join the waitlist. If someone drops out, you get in automatically and we let you know.
- Redesigned event card: bigger photo, price, spots left, recurrence, co-hosts and the roasteries whose beans you'll be cupping.
- Reminders for events you signed up for finally arrive on time.

PASSPORT
- Every new stamp comes with a collectible card you can share to your Story. Don't want the celebration every time? One toggle in Preferences turns it off.

MAP AND CAFES
- Cafes under renovation or on holiday now show "Temporarily closed" instead of the misleading "Closed".
- "Suggest an edit" on a cafe profile now also lets you flag a place as temporarily closed.
- Venues without a confirmed address no longer show up in random spots on the map.
- The cafe rating form is simpler now. A small step towards what we're preparing for version 2.0.

QR CHECK-IN
- The poster code in a cafe now works even if the person scanning it doesn't have the app yet. It takes them straight to the store.

FIXES
- No more being logged out unexpectedly.
- Hundreds of translation fixes across all 16 languages.
- Better pin clustering on the map.

As always, we fixed bugs you reported. Write to us using the contact button at the top of the Hub tab.
