Welcome to Freed’s Online Coffee & Tea Store

Since 1899, we at Freed, Teller & Freed (the locals call us “Freed’s”) have demonstrated a steadfast commitment to providing an excellent and comprehensive selection of specialty coffees and teas from around the world. Freed’s takes pride in providing our fresh roasted coffees and premium teas, always super-fresh and custom packed by hand. Our prices are consistently competitive because our global resources of origins and importers allows us to purchase very efficiently. Our service is dependable, friendly and knowledgeable. We're a little old fashioned perhaps, but our customers love it, especially when they need to speak with a savvy human about their order. We wouldn’t have it any other way.

A Reliable San Francisco Tradition

A San Francisco tradition since 1899, Freed’s has operated as a family business for all these years. Originally located at the edge of Golden Gate Park and soon after in downtown San Francisco, the great earthquake of 1906 razed our building causing us to relocate to nearby Polk Gulch. It was to be our headquarters for many decades, complete with underground streams and brick paved streets complimented by horse hitching posts, gas lights and colorful neighbors. Our business there focused on providing our retail and wholesale customers with carefully selected, fresh roasted coffees, special teas, herbs, spices, oils, extracts and a few related accessories. Through the decades we carefully added new found specialty items that appealed to our cosmopolitan clientele. Offerings like custom fruit preserves and English marmalades, coffee and tea making equipment, delicious European candies and sweets, imported crackers and cookies, and the ever popular Virginia, fresh-roasted peanuts made Freed's a destination point from far and near.

Environmentally Friendly Specialty Coffees, Teas and Packaging

As a one hundred ten year-old business, we know how to keep up with important tastes and trends. We operate as a virtual retailer with an environmentally sensitive view. We feature Organic, Fair Trade and Shade Grown coffees and teas produced through sustainable land use practices whenever possible. Even our world class Japanese Matcha is organic and shade grown. We also feature tea blends that focus on health consciousness like our proprietary super-charged Energi Tea™ Blend and our naturally caffeine-free fruit tisanes and herb formulas. For those who requested tea quality in convenient bags, we are now offering a selection of delicious Freed's tea in tea bag sachets in sensitive packaging. Please view our offerings and learn more about the beneficial impact these products can have on the environment. We strive to utilize environmentally friendly packaging whenever practical.

The staff at Freed's is just a phone call away if you need assistance (see our "Contact Us" page). We are also happy to help you with special orders and custom labels and blends to suit your specific preferences. The entire Freed’s team looks to serving you for generations to come. And, thanks for your loyal support!
