Silver St0.2 mi from City Centre centrelast reviewed June 2026

Order a pour-over here and the menu names the producer, not just the country, with a choice between a nutty or fruity bean that most cafés this size don't bother offering.

Leicester pour-overs come with a producer's name, not just a country.

Single originsPour-over

What we love

  • Pour-over served through an origami dripper, a standing menu option rather than a one-off
  • Single origins named down to producer level, not just country of origin
  • Choice of two distinct bean profiles, nutty or fruity, picked with staff input

One of Leicester's most established specialty roasters, roasting on-site and still supplying the city's independents. The counter is where you drink at the source, single origins included, with staff who know the range well enough to point you towards the right one.
