The company is a part of the third wave coffee or specialty coffee industry.[2] The company's preferred brew method is the aeropress.[3][4] The company opened their 24th shop in 2017.[5]

In September 2016, Gregorys opened a roastery and commissary in Long Island City, Queens, New York.[9] Later that year opened its first location outside of Manhattan, located on the Jersey City waterfront.[7]
In 2016, the company signed a 15-year lease at 16 Court Street, Brooklyn. This is the first in the borough.[10]
In 2017, Gregorys opened several coffee shops in Washington, D.C.
