Micro Roastery★★ Specialty

Canterbury's own roaster. Staff grind to order, advise on the beans, and the tasting notes on the espresso are specific and accurate.

Lost Sheep Coffee★★ Specialty

Lost Sheep roast their own beans in Whitstable and run them straight through this kiosk. The setting undersells the coffee considerably.

Ark Music, Coffee and Bites★ Everyday

Ten minutes south of the centre on Oaten Hill, where coffee leads and cardamom buns close the argument.
