Friends sharing coffee on a summit at sunrise

Live PICOS

Coffee is what brings us together.

From the peaks to the people. Here, coffee isn't the destination — it's the perfect excuse to run, climb, ride and, above all, gather.

Why Live?

A bag of coffee lasts two weeks.
A friendship made at 1,900 metres lasts forever.

PICOS is so much more than exceptional beans. It's a tribe of runners, climbers, cyclists, the curious and the storytellers, all chasing the same horizon. We don't just sell coffee — we bring people together, and coffee is the thread.

Our rituals

Run, climb, ride. Then sip.

Four regular meet-ups, no experience needed. Show up solo — it's the fastest way to leave with a crew.

Trail runners pausing at dawn with steaming cups of coffeeCoffee & Run

  • Every Saturday · 8:30 am
  • Paris → countryside, 40 to 60 km

Community stories

Strangers. Cups. Friends.

Honestly, I came to Coffee & Run for the coffee. Six months later I was running my first trail race with people who'd become my best friends.

A bag of Huila in the letterbox, a group message about Saturday's hike. It's become the one date I never miss.

At the summit someone pulled out the moka pot and everyone went quiet. The silence of strangers who'd become a crew. I'll never forget it.
