"Owner-run, antipodean in more than name, and worth the climb up Richmond Hill for the espresso alone."
20a Richmond Hill, Richmond TW10 6QX, 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.
