Explorers are us, fearless and brave
In the wilderness, among untold wonders.
Equipped with a brain, a map and a snack,
We are looking for coffee and we are on the right track.
In 2025, we’d like to invite you to take part in Sprudge Maps, a searchable global coffee shop compendium presented in partnership with Pacific Barista series AND La Marzoco.
In 2020, we launched Sprudge Maps as a free, easy-to-update coffee shop mapping service, serving hundreds of great coffee shops across the US and Canada (and around the world). Now with over 1,200 registrations worldwidethe purpose of Sprudge Maps is two-fold: for consumers, it is a tool to find great coffee shops in your area, and for coffee companies, it is an uncomplicated way to be included in a global resource that can be directly updated. Sprudge Maps is free for consumers and businesses alike and supports our partnership with Apple Maps.
Meanwhile, we’ve developed Sprudge Maps Spotlights, a curated video series highlighting eminent coffee shops and the unique people behind them. Over the past two years, we have aired over a dozen of these spots, including at Maru Coffee in Los Angeles, Broadway Cafe in Kansas City, Anodyne Coffee in Milwaukee, The Coffee Studio in Chicago, Watson’s Counter in Seattle and many others.
We recently updated Sprudge Maps with an improved user interface, and the maps are now available on the Sprudge.com home page. The modern URL is sprudge.com/sprudgemaps.
We’re taking this moment to invite you to nominate your coffee shop to Sprudge Maps today and participate in future Sprudge Maps awards. This is where you come in!
