The flat whites come with real flavour precision: rich, nutty, made by someone who actually cares what ends up in the cup.

The flat whites are the reason the regulars keep coming back.

What we love

  • Balance and technique in the flat whites, consistent across visits
  • Flat whites: rich, nutty, consistent; the espresso is the point here

Bean Theory★★★ Purist

Bean Theory is a working roastery in Newnham that happens to have a cafe out front. Single origins traced to the farm, retail beans from the same stock they're brewing.

Hot Numbers Coffee★★★ Purist

Hot Numbers roasts on site. Come for pour-over from beans they sourced, roasted, and dialled in themselves.

Flux Coffee★★ Specialty

Marsi sources the beans, pulls every shot, and hand-throws the ceramics she serves them in. One of those neighbourhood spots that rewards the detour.
