Exiting stuff coming up!
You can find us at pulling amazing espressos (as per usual). Come and pop in for a banging coffee and a chat!

It’s been a difficult year for the coffee industry. From recent droughts and frosts in Brazil, increases in shipping and fertiliser costs, to droughts in Vietnam severely impacting coffee growers and the communities they belong to. This has understandably resulted in higher Arabica coffee prices globally.

We also acknowledge that it’s been a difficult time for us here in the UK, navigating what feels like an endless cost of living crisis and inflation increasing well above wages.

You may have seen on our bags or on our website that we ‘put people and planet first.’
What does that mean?
Well, it includes thoughtfulness and intentionality around everything we do. It means paying farmers fairly, it means paying our staff fairly - above the London Living Wage - and it means continually looking for ways to be sustainable in our packaging and choice of products.

Given the global scale of inflation, the increasing costs of production and the numerous climate emergencies that directly impact coffee farmers, it’s important that the price of coffee goes up. Charging more is the only way that coffee producers can continue to grow coffee without sacrificing their quality of life. And for an industry that exists in the shadows of immense inequality, we believe that this is incredibly important. Coffee shops who are not increasing their prices are either squeezing as much as they can from producers or absorbing costs. Cost absorption is only really possible for companies that are chains, have significant amounts of money to fall back on, or make revenue from other means.

As a small, independent coffee shop with no investors and no generational wealth to rely on, and who’s seen huge cost increases in goods and bills, we have reached a point where we can no longer absorb costs and must review our prices. This has not been an easy decision to make, but if we want to stay open, stay true to our values and maintain the quality of our offering, some prices will increase. On balance, we will be decreasing the cost of our alt milks to reduce the gap between dairy and non dairy beverages.

NEW GUEST ALERT! ⚠️
We are so incredibly happy to reintroduce on our shelves after many years. ONYX is one of the team's favourite, and so imagine our thrill when they announced the .eu project with . We HAD to get them in.
You will be able to find on our shelves:

■ Geometry Blend. (Our Guest Espresso)
Washed processed Ethiopian & Colombian. This blend has become one of our favorite coffees. We love it as a filter coffee, and we love it as espresso.
■ Kenya Gikanda Ndaroi-ini AB. (Our Guest Filter)
Washed process with an amazing citric acid hint just like a good old fashion Kenyan coffee. Suitable for any method.
■ Colmbia Sebastian Ramirez Gesha White Honey. (Our Guest Pour Over)
This could be the best Gesha we have ever tasted. From hot, to warm, to cold. This coffee is a whole experience. A reminder of how outstanding coffee can be. Expect notes of jasmine and pineapple, with a slightly herbal sweetness reminiscent of honey.

Meet the team: EVELIN.
Although Evelin has just joined the team, we felt like she was part of the family from day 1. She always has a smile for everyone to have along your flat white with some of her banging latte art on top.
Say hello to Evelin!
