Specialty Coffee & Geothermal Wonders, Brewed in Squamish.

Explore Our Experiences

FROM THE EARTH'S CORE TO YOUR CUP

Fumarole Fuel was born from two passions: the rich, complex world of specialty coffee and the raw, powerful geology that shapes our home in Squamish. We saw a profound connection between the subterranean heat that forges our majestic landscapes and the precise heat that expertly roasts our ethically sourced beans. This dual inspiration drives everything we do.

Our mission extends far beyond simply being another cafe. We are a vibrant community hub where you can energize your day with exceptional, meticulously prepared coffee, and simultaneously ignite your curiosity about the incredible geothermal forces bubbling just beneath our feet. Each cup we serve is designed to spark conversation, invite exploration, and stand as a heartfelt tribute to the dynamic, living energy of British Columbia.
