About

Cousins Paolo Giovinazzo and Mauro Laruffa co-own the shop, which was named among the Best Coffee Shops UK 2025. Three filter single origins come from Ethiopia, Guatemala and Colombia, and a natural Ethiopian, Halo Beliti, is the house espresso.

The counter runs down the left of a narrow room, with the espresso machine behind it and the grinder and whole-bean hopper built into the serving window at the front. A white-painted staircase at the back leads to an upper level.
