Sweven CoffeeSouthville, Bristol

"Sweven roast their own, sourcing competition-circuit lots that rarely make it into a cup you can walk in and order: Geisha, Sudan Rume, Typica Mejorado, Sidra. The highest-ceiling roastery cafe in the South West."

Unica Coffee Ltd★★ Specialty

A working Southville roastery with four named single origins and the flavour vocabulary to back them up. Buy a bag of the Ethiopian; the floral tea and lime notes hold at home.

Boona Boona Coffee Roasters★★ Specialty

Boona Boona roasts on-site, so the beans in your cup were roasted this week. The address is an industrial unit in Bedminster, which is either a deterrent or the whole point.

Peggy's★★ Specialty

Triple Co Roast on the bar, indie guest roasters cycling through seasonally. The brunch is what fills the room, but the espresso programme is the reason to come back.
