The Surfin Team

The faces & the beans.

Family owned and operated since 2003 — say hello to the people who keep both shops humming.

Founder

Jonathan Medlock

“Jonny”

Founder of Surfin back in 2003, Jonny is — by his own admission — the closest thing you can get to a human coffee bean. The big ideas that started it all are still very much his.

Julia Fennell

Operations

Julia Fennell

“The Queen Bea(N)!!”

With an extensive venue management background, Julia keeps both shops humming. Nothing happens at Surfin without the Queen Bea(N) knowing about it first.
