Nice place. Today the staff were flat but competent. Very very good espresso blend, would deffo go for the single origin next time to try; I bet it’s worth it. Decaf latte was way above average. Safe bet.

Beautiful shop. Clean space and polite service. The matcha was excellent and so was the orange cake. A nice place to sit for a bit and recharge.

looks nice, but the coffee is horrible. Sorry I have to say that, I really hoped I will find a good specialty coffee place in UK..I was sure the coffee was bitter just by seeing the colour and it was confirmed after the first sip. My friend felt the same bitter taste.

Got a cold filter Ethiopia bean which they call Fruitopia. At the time of purchase it was £4.50. An east-Asian guy with glasses brewed it for me. Best speciality coffee I’ve had in this country, hands down. Bro must’ve had a good recipe and high xp to have brewed that. Cafe itself is small and I’ve seen faster WiFi in planes, but colours and ambiances are nice. But the coffee makes up for it.

Could be a very nice spot but overall just not cared for. I sat downstairs but staff did not offer to take food down to table, despite paying £5 for a coffee. I also counted a total of 10 flies in the bathroom, 3 of which were flying around. It's a shame as the coffee is so nice and smooth. Nonetheless, I don't think I'll be coming back here again.
