East St0.1 mi from Chichester centrelast reviewed October 2026

A busy East Street café where the long blacks come through with real fruit character and the beans go home in a bag. The flat whites are the other reason to queue, and the food holds its own.

A Chichester counter where the long black tastes of fruit, not just roast.

Harris And Hoole, Chichester South st★★ Specialty

A chain that treats the filter list like a proper menu: a rotating single-origin espresso and a single-origin filter, both with printed tasting notes. Order either and there is always something seasonal beyond the flat white.

Trading Post Coffee★★ Specialty

Trading Post is a family-run Sussex roastery with a Master Roaster and Great Taste Awards for four of its blends, and this is where you drink it on South Street. The single origins come with printed tasting notes, so you can order the roaster's own coffee over a generic house blend.

Common Grounds★ Everyday

A tiny, owner-run coffee shop one street back from East Street, beside the Little London car park, where the flat white is the order and the latte art is as good as the taste. Locals with years of loyalty call it Chichester's best.
