Delicious coffee, cakes, sandwiches. Adorable staff. Local clientele and a very relaxed London vibe and interiors. It's a roastery, so you can buy the coffee you just tasted, whether you want 500 gr or 15 kg is entirely up to you.

It’s maybe unfair to give 3 stars for the food when all I had was one flat white on oat, once. And there’s really nothing wrong with their coffee, actually the brew is EXCELLENT, fresh, flavourful and full bodied, it’s just not done exactly the way I like it like soooo many others in the rest of the world. Mind you 4 stars is pretty damn high marks for a coffee that didn’t have The Milk (to be fair an impossible ask given it’s an Australian product), or enough milk. As usual it was a bit stronger than I like. If they made it any weaker you’d taste the milk too much, so I guess…ok. I’ll come back tomorrow, and try the soy and maybe use my own mug, and maybe have more milk, and maybe ask for an extra hot (for once it was a quaffable temperature, but I like it a little hotter).
Service is super quick and friendly. And the atmosphere is adorable. Comfy seating of different descriptions, pretty decorations, chill music and lots of coffee related products including specialist roasts. Very cool place.

Superb coffee, lovely service, nice small space. Infinitely better than all those chain cafes. It’s so important to have independently run places like this.

The best coffee roasters in Islington hands down. The people who run this place are so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the coffee - getting a morning coffee it's like going to a wine tasting evening, they'll happily tell you all about the beans and their process.

You can get the best coffee here in the angel neighbourhood!
The owner is very professional and roast their own beans! It’s always a nice experience chatting with him.
Wonderful coffee shop filled with the passion of coffee

Tried their latte and a croissant for breakfast. They were both nice. The barista was friendly and efficient. I must go back for their speciality coffee next time. It's also nice you can collect Embargo stamps here.

Absolutely love this coffee shop. Friendly staff who really care, and want to make sure you enjoy what you’re ordering. Highly recommend this place. It’s great to pop in and get a coffee and also a good place to sit and write or watch the world go by.

New favourite coffee shop in London... I keep picking places that close or move away 🤦‍♂️

Great coffee, great V60 and super lovely and knowledgeable staff. They also roast in-house and the place smells amazing. By pure coincidence, I found out the roaster is the same guy from my previous favourite (I was gutted when he left that place).

A relatively new, but really lovely little cafe selling their own roast and everything you might need for your own setup at home. Also really fantastic. If you want to learn a little bit about coffee, the staff really do care about what they do.

Looking forward to trying some food next time.
