What we love

  • Own roastery: North Star Roasters, producing every bean served at this counter
  • Named house blend (Astro) alongside rotating single origins
  • Filter is batch brew and Clever Dripper, poured alongside espresso
  • Tasting notes on the menu by origin, not blend name alone
  • Retail beans in-store; the same roasts poured across the bar

Pebble and Pine Coffee★★★ Purist
Horsforth

A Yorkshire roastery that roasts to your order, so the beans in the bag are days off the drum rather than weeks. Multiple origins, serious about sourcing, and happy to talk you through what you're drinking.

North Star Coffee Kiosk★★★ Purist
Kirkgate

North Star's Sovereign Street kiosk, pouring the brand's own roasts. Co-founder Holly Kragiopoulos is a Q Grader; the kiosk format undersells what is behind it.

Maude Coffee Roasters★★★ Purist
Kirkgate

Leeds has a destination roastery, and this is it. Roasting on site, running a house blend that treats the cup as the whole point.
