5 AMAZING COFFEE SHOPS IN LONDON
MY LONDON SELECTION
It's finally here! The first part of my London Coffee Shop guide!
You'll know me by now, I like my coffees, and I like them iced. And that's all year around.. Counting as one of London's many self-employed, it's nice if not absolutely necessary to get out of the house every now and then and cafés and coffee shops can offer the perfect space for work, socialising and let's not forget the art of coffee making. So my dear friends, new as old, after 3 years of jumping around London with my laptop, slurping those iced coffees down as I go, I feel like I have something to say on the subject and I'm more than happy to share. So please, join me as I go to 5 of my favourite spots here in London, and although I fear the cliffhanger will be given away too soon, there will be more café guides coming soon!

ATTENDANT 79 GREAT EASTERN STREET, LONDON EC2A Located in both Fitzrovia and Hoxton, here's a coffee shop passionate about their trade and brilliant food. Previously at Chiltern Firehouse, the Attendant chef creates magic in the kitchen. |
Soho Grind offers the perfect spot for a lunchtime escape. (if there's potato and leek soup, don't think twice!) |
SOHO GRIND
19 BEAK STREET, LONDON W1F 9RP
Although my French hasn't improved much beyond 'framboise', this counts for one of my top spots to go for a coffee in London. Their blend is one of my favourites, and you're lucky to find their chain a few places in town, extending to Holborn and Shoreditch Grind.
BARBER & PARLOUR
64-66 REDCHURCH STREET, LONDON E2 7DP
Not only will you find a good coffee and a great bowl of granola here, but Barber & Parlour also combines their charming space with grooming options for him and her. Whether you need your beard trimmed (am I right, ladies?) or a manicure, it's all here. In the same building as the Electric Cinema, now, who could ask for more?
THE HIVE OF VYNER STREET
286-290 CAMBRIDGE HEATH ROAD
A recently discovered East London Gem, who with their organic ethos and on point coffee has become a new favourite. Only a skip and a jump away from Broadway Market, which is an absolutely vibrant place to be on Saturdays.
Brilliant options for oganic and clean eating (those coffees excluded..) at The Hive in East London. |
COUNTER ALBION 64-66 REDCHURCH ST, LONDON E2 7DP Not only a photogenic favourite, but this place had me raving about a cauliflower almond soup for ages. With a colourful and exciting lunch buffet, this one is definitely worth a visit and perfect for dates catching up with friends. |
HOPE YOU ENJOY!
