Caffe Roma was opened one day earlier than intended on the 28th June 1993 at 7am – it snowed. Caffe Roma was started by Duncan Clark, Janet Gearey, and Ralph Simpson. Duncan and Janet had worked previously at another cafe in Christchurch, and Ralph, a long time friend of Duncan, had previously worked for IBM and was involved in professional photography and advertising. The concept behind Caffe Roma was to establish a classically European styled coffee house that specialised in coffee, breakfast, brunch and lunch.

An old building was found, with wooden paneled walls, high ceilings, timber floors, two large stone open fire places that are lit in winter, leadlight windows, and a beautiful view out the windows over the Avon River. Almost ten years later, Duncan is the only one of the initial owners left and still works in the caffe. Caffe Roma has a very loyal, regular clientele and a fine reputation in all the areas it set out to establish.

Atomic Coffee took off in 1992. The original Atomic Caf quickly became known for its atmosphere, its music and of course its coffee, freshly roasted on site in a 3kg Swaldo roaster. Within two years demand for their coffee necessitated the purchase of a larger 12kg Probat roaster. This was located at their second Atomic Caf on Balmorals Dominion Road, however roasting within a caf environment presented logistical problems, so by 1995 the shift was made to the current site in Kingslands New North Road coinciding with the purchase of their 1957 Probat 22kg roaster.

They believe in using artisan or hand crafting processes, nurturing the bean on its’ journey from roasting to cup to produce exquisite espresso. They buy only the best, most suitable Arabica beans for their espresso production, and where possible insist on sustainably grown coffee with respect for social responsibility. Their head coffee roaster, Ewan Cameron is a perfectionist, using his years of experience to roast and blend the coffees for which Atomic is so well known.
