☕ The Best Coffee in Shoreditch (From Someone Who’s Tried Them All…)
“Here in E1, coffee isn’t just a drink. It’s a belief system.”
Origin Coffee Roasters – Rivington Street
Design-forward, calm, and always on point. Their pour-over will realign your chakras. And the banana bread? Dangerous.
What to order: V60, black. Respect the ritual.
Allpress Espresso Bar – Redchurch Street
An East London staple. Always busy, always smooth. Everyone looks cooler than you, but the flat white is worth it.
What to order: Flat white. No tweaks. Trust the process.
Ozone Coffee Roasters – Leonard Street
Lively, a bit loud, but reliable AF. Think brunch with purpose and caffeine with a mission.
What to order: Espresso + sparkling water. Minimalist energy.
Holy Shot – Paul Street
Quiet. Tucked away. Very Shoreditch-before-it-was-Shoreditch. Their cold brew tonic will jolt you into summer.
What to order: Cold Brew Tonic. Refreshing + mysterious.
Climpson & Sons – Broadway Market
A slight detour, but you won’t regret it. Roasting royalty, consistently excellent coffee, and a crowd that knows what’s up.
What to order: Single-origin filter. Say “bright acidity” like you mean it.
The Espresso Cart Outside Boxpark
No name. No frills. Just killer espresso from a dude who clearly sold his soul to the caffeine gods.
What to order: Whatever he gives you. Don’t ruin the moment.
🖤 In Conclusion
Whether you’re running on deadlines, heartbreak, or the vibes of a post-industrial society — great coffee helps. These spots don’t just serve coffee, they serve clarity. Kind of.
So next time you’re wandering Shoreditch with a tote bag full of unread zines, do yourself a favour: caffeinate properly.
See you at the counter.
