Order a V60, read the tasting note while it brews, and take a bag home. Kiss the Hippo roasts its own beans and brings the full programme to this Fitzrovia corner.

The roastery with a Fitzrovia cafe attached, not the other way around.

WatchHouse Fitzrovia★★★ Purist

WatchHouse runs its own Coffee Lab in South London; Fitzrovia is where you taste the results. Named single origins on the batch brew and a rotating Roaster's Spotlight give you a reason to come back.

Attendant Coffee Roasters★★★ Purist

Attendant roasts on-site and pours named single origins as V60, AeroPress, or espresso. One of the few addresses in central London where the Roasters in the name is actually true.

Kaffeine★★★ Purist

The Antipodean-founded café that set Fitzrovia's specialty standard. Come for the filter programme as much as the espresso.
