"Hagen roasts under its own name, selling Brazil Natural and Nepal Anaerobic Natural whole beans from the counter. The Richmond branch runs paid brew masterclasses, which is not something most neighbourhood espresso bars bother with."
52 Hill St, Richmond TW9 1TW, UK
Two guest roasters cycle through every month, their beans on filter, espresso, and the retail shelf. The sourcing rotation is the menu.
Stovepipe is the house roaster, with retail bags on the counter if you want to carry it home. Food gets the headline, but the espresso earns its own visit on Kew Road.
Kiss the Hippo owns the roastery, and the Richmond branch is where you drink the output: single origins on espresso, pour-over on the menu, baristas who'll tell you what's in the bag.
