Priya's Picks

No. 1Alchemy“Alchemy has been doing it longer than most and still outperforms newer arrivals. The roastery cafe is their best location.”
No. 2

Westminster

Formative Coffee“Formative is exactly what East London needed. Small, focused, and the filter coffee programme is outstanding.”
No. 3

Soho

Flat White“Still one of the best espressos in Soho after all these years. The original flat white pioneer.”
