‘Espresso’ quest walkthrough in Arc Raiders
On paper, the “Espresso” quest in Arc Raiders sounds like a quick grab-and-go. Find an espresso machine, nab the parts, extract. The catch is the machine itself isn’t regular loot. You’re after espresso machine parts, and you can only interact with them while the quest is active.
There are a few spots to track one down, but the cleanest route is the one the quest nudges you toward: Buried City — the smallest map. You can also find machines on Dam Battlegrounds and Blue Gate, but Buried City keeps things straightforward. Here’s where to pick up the parts and wrap the quest.
All you need to do is secure the espresso machine parts for Apollo and extract with them in your inventory. Do that and you’ll bag one coffee pot and three adrenaline shots, plus unlock the next quest in the chain.
Espresso machine locations in Arc Raiders
Buried City: Head to Plaza Rosa and look for the building with the “Cafe Da Rosa” sign above the door. It’s right by a train station entrance, so expect foot traffic from players — and keep an eye out for the Bastion or Bombardier that likes to patrol Main Street nearby.
Go inside the cafe and the espresso machine is on the counter. Interact with it and boom — you’ll get the espresso machine parts. Drop them in your safe pocket, then make a beeline for extraction without doing anything heroic on the way out.
If you’d rather pull parts elsewhere, try Dam Battlegrounds at the Testing Annex. You can find machines in the entrance area or upstairs in the canteen. On Blue Gate, head to Village; the easternmost house has one by the front door.
Wherever you grab the espresso machine parts, bring them back to Apollo in one piece to complete the quest. If you’re working through more Arc Raiders objectives, it’s also worth knowing where to use a patrol car key and how to finish “Paving the Way,” “A Toxic Trail,” and “The Clean Dream.”
