Park St0.4 mi from Old City centrelast reviewed May 2026

Consistently pulled espresso in one of Old City's quieter independents. The spinach and feta pie is reason enough to stay past the first cup.

A well-run independent where the espresso does what the name promises.

What we love

  • Flat whites and lattes pulled with genuine extraction consistency
  • Speciality coffee positioning that holds up in the cup
  • Spinach and feta pie worth building a sit-in visit around
  • Warm, attentive front-of-house; the kind of independent that remembers what it's for

Full Court Press★★★ Purist

Full Court Press roasts its own and publishes what it pays producers. Two espressos and two filters rotate weekly, including competition-grade lots most roasters never source.

Origin Coffee★★★ Purist

Origin are a Cornish specialty roaster with their own roastery, and the Victoria Street shop is the full expression of that. Single origins on the menu, tasting notes alongside, and baristas hired for their knowledge.

Small Street Espresso★★ Specialty

Clifton Coffee as house roast, with guest espressos rotating from Bristol and further out. The programme is sharper than the neighbourhood setting implies.
