Five London coffee houses named after a John le Carré spy.

Abdelrahman Fathalla, who had worked at private equity advisory firm Campbell Lutyens, opened the first in March 2020, just as the pandemic began, and built a following on takeaway.

The coffee list is single origins from ten countries, including Costa Rica, Papua New Guinea, and Kenya, with single origin meaning a cooperative or small region rather than a whole country. The 2022 London Coffee Festival placed the brand third for Most Notable New Café.

On Gloucester Road, the shopfront is painted navy under an awning printed with the coffee house's winged badge, with seating out on the pavement. Inside, the counter and floor share the same grey speckled terrazzo, and a navy-upholstered bench sits under the front window.
