Built in a bodybuilding prep.
Buffee's started with one question from a guy on a diet: why can't a great latte come with its numbers?
You're already having the latte. Make it count.
I kept weights in my bedroom, played sports, rode BMX and loved to work out. But I didn't know anything about macros.
That changed during my first bodybuilding prep in 2025. After the gym, my gym partner would order a large vanilla latte. I'd order an Americano, because there was nothing else for me.
So I started making my own drinks at home. I measured every drink and switched to ultrafiltered milk. Same cafe quality, real protein, numbers I could log.
I love coffee. I just wanted it to do more. That's where Buffee's started.
A name, a logo, a cart.
We didn't start with a lease. We started by showing up where people work out.
- The idea
A cafe for people who work out
A fun name and a happy mascot. I designed the logo before anything else.
- The feedback
Immediate and positive
People wanted in. So instead of waiting on one block of prime real estate, we went mobile to get going faster.
- The cart
In the community
We built the cart and took it to meets, races and gym days. People love it.
Same routine. Better swap.
Coffee and working out are already part of your day. We just make them work together.
- Instead of pre-workout powder
Cold brew or espresso
Caffeine you already like, in a dose you can count.
- Instead of the post-gym latte
Recovery Latte
Same drink you were getting anyway. It just makes hitting your macros easier.
- Instead of guessing
Macros on the menu
Every drink has a number, so it fits your day.
Know what's in it.
Every drink on our menu comes with its numbers. Cutting, maintaining or bulking, you'll know how it fits your day.
Not everything is built for a deficit, and that's fine. We just tell you what's in it.
Got feedback? Tell us. We're listening.
Buff + coffee. That's it.
The mascot is a nod to the old coffee carafes at Tim Hortons. As a kid, I loved going there for a donut after hockey.
Buffee is that feeling, mixed with golden era bodybuilding: vintage, friendly and a little bit jacked.
I want Buffee's to be the place you go if you work out.
We show up where you do.
If you work out, we want to be there. In our first year we poured at bodybuilding shows, powerlifting meets and a street bicycle jam.
